I hope they don't bust people for Windows Media Player. It comes with the Windows operating system whether you want it or not.

Ditto that Style Council BOS..

Probably gonna be seeing less of me - as our company is cracking down on "unapproved software" which includes any kind of iTunes, Windows Media Player, etc. I'll be reported to upper management. There's a Dilbert strip in here somewhere
Sucks!

I'm the Lone Mac in our PC network, so I have some leeway, but not much!


second bummer of day... sorry, man. that totally sucks.

a better-than-average '84 set. If tomorrow's not a theme, it may well be '69 or (dare we hope?) '67.

not a good set to have slept through, it seems. i never knew bruce's "trapped" was a jimmy cliff cover. i'll have to find the original, now. would that dave play "4 the tears in your eyes" one day. there are a few good singles on that album, actually, like the pointer sister's version of robbie nevil's "just a little closer," and tina's "total control."

nice piece, gaz! but obviously "vahevala" is jamaican for "home of sailor.":)

sorry to hear about the fascists, rastermon.

What complete BS. If my company did that, there'd be mass mutiny.

MASS MUTINY....
I like the sound of that!

I only missed the last 2 songs, "My Ever Changing Moods" & "The Ghost In You", but they are 2 of my top 4 or 5 songs from the year!  That on top of the rare Bruce & the BOC & the novel BBC newsclips make this one of the all-time 1984 sets.  Gonna try to roll tape tomorrow morning.
