Im interested to know,is the remastered White Arcades worth buying? Does it sound better?

The Chemical Brothers: Electronic Battle Weapons tracks

Fame and Fashion by David Bowie. I started listening late to Bowie and I bought this compilation (LP), as my first Bowie record, back in 1984 after listening to Heroes as part of the soundtrack to the movie Christianne F . It was the closing titles of the movie to be precise. One cloudy morning in 1999, I eventually bought this one, my flagship album, on CD (RCA) in some record shop in Leeds. My girlfriend at the time was annoyed as I spent 75 quid on it, even though she was a Bowie nut like me! :rolleyes:

Live Santa Monica '72 by David Bowie . I bought the original release on CD from Music and Video Exchange at Notting Hill Gate back in 2000 after selling my TV. I had left my job in London for another in Gibraltar, I was travelling a lot in those days. This new release comes in a nice box with postcards, press release and booklet. After reading on Bowienet that it's a limited edition and that as from October it will only be released in a normal jewel case I immediately bought it. As Bowie mentions on the box, "Mick Ronson is at his blistering best". He is and it's a brilliant show.

Talking of Bowie:

I got rid of all my Bowie vinyl very long time ago! But in spring this year I happened to be in a store and heard some long forgotten instrumental's playing out, I even went up to the guy behind the counter and said tentatively, "err, that’s from Low isn’t it?" I'd forgotten how good it was
So I now have on CD: low/Heroes/Lodger remasters.

Playing this morning: 'Secret Life Of Arabia', 'Sons Of The Silent Age', 'Art Decade' and 'Subterraneans'


Ha, couple of weeks ago doing some browsing I found and emailed this link to my 'Dr Who' mad friend: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=js7jF-T-_Bs
But for days afterwards I couldn't get the music out of my head, I really love it, surprised to find its from 'The Phantom Menace' soundtrack

Nice video.

John William's Phantom Manace score was fantastic,pitty about the film

Yes, I am quite happy with it. I almost didn't buy but sure glad I did.

Its like watching a cinema trailer for the greatest Dr Who film never made

Yeah all it really was, was a great title.

I think John should use 'Phantom Menace' as a song title...

...Yeah, circumstance's that happen in one's earlier life, and losing the appeal. Had everything really up to 'Scary Monsters', after that, well...

But, there’s an unexpected Joy in rediscovering (or re-imagining rather) the past after so long.
Its kind of like being shipwrecked, then stumbling on some old pirate chest of gold
