The album is HOT shouln't be to hard to find but what do i know? as for the al christian tune late 60's early 70's i guess, Rod dearlove did a excellent article on chant in one of voices so the answer would be in there somewhere, hope this is of some help and glad you enjoyed the records.

Cheers Jason ( the chqs in the post ) but really just have a good ear and lucky enough to have some good infulences, and been lucky enough to know some great collectors and djs etc who just love the music, and are willing to share it, and that,s what i enjoy most, sharing wonderful music made by talented artists, cause without them there is nothing.

Right sermon over enjoy

Agree! just love flip to his "I Got What You Need" the sublime "Come On Home To Me"... in fact might ratch it out, record it and send it up, if it aint already there! think it's on the flip ov another of his 45's I got too!

You can upload files other than mp3s but you have to rename the file with ".mp3" at the end.. that should work.

Some brilliant stuff on here

ok excuse my ignorance here, but

clicked new clip, browsed to the right soundclip from my desktop, then replaced the end with .mp3 filled in the artist info and clicked upload....

which worked fine....but where does it upload to

Umm... should upload onto the thread... you maybe need to rename the file on your desktop before you upload?

Hmm, nope, that's stumped me... I'll get back to you
