Dylan's "Sweatheart Like You"




PS: I really wish Vince Clarke would re-record "Only You" with Andy Bell singing the vocal.  Such a gorgeous, gorgeous song.

VHM Ms. Pac-Man commercial.  Didja know that the guy at Atari who invented this game originally named it Puck-Man?  But the guy who acquired US distribution rights correctly figured that within minutes (if not seconds) of being plugged into a US arcade that 'P' would have gotten scratched out into an 'F'.


called Ginger to share that bit of trivia (which I only learned yesterday!) and to tell her how much I enjoyed hearing the New Order & Dylan bustouts.  We had a nice chat.  She even asked me how the new job is going.


Not sure where to put this, but since we were talking about Pac-Man here...

While I was in Atlanta this past weekend I met and became buddies with a guy named Mike Stewart, who played keyboards, synths & co-produced "Pac-Man Fever".  Real nice guy.

Not sure if that's something I'd admit to, if I were him...

It got him a gold record on his wall...and the profits got CBS records back into the black when they were on the verge of bankruptcy.
