Ray Greene's recent album is very good and I'm sure he'd be great live. I have a promoter's name for him who might be interested.

Album of the year so far imo. Loads of great tracks.

I had my stag weekend there in 1997. It was sweltering hot in the room and Maxine Brown was superb.

I don't know who it is, but it's not Teena Marie, although I can see the similarities at some points of the song.

Congrats Girth. Bottom for me! For the first time ever. Must do better next season 😬

I saw it too and agree with Richard. Perhaps more singing and dancing than storyline compared to most shows but I enjoyed it. Was pleasantly surprised to hear Since I Lost My Baby.

I'll be amazed if equals the original. It scared the life out of me as a kid.

Looks like I'll have to eat my words Steve. It makes you wonder why we so boring for the last two seasons he was in charge. I still hope someone else takes over next season and Roy can leave on a high.

Not sure Steve. I was really chuffed when he left and only a club like Palace would reappoint him after he bored us all to death. I can't thinking a performance like we had on Saturday is going to be very far and few between.

That night involved Tommy Hunt, Ivy Jo Hunter and another? I think Kim & Brenda were on a separate later occasion. Great of him to bring these acts to sing at his events.

RIP Chris. I used to love the Bretby all-nighters he used to promote with Dave Thorley. He was always very welcoming.

I am starting to have second thoughts about him. It's been terrible recently, but still think we'll be ok and will get points against the teams around us. I can't think who would be a better replacement.

RIP Chuck. Agree he was one of the all time greats. Such a distinctive voice. There aren't that many people out there who have heard of Chuck Jackson, but there's quite a few who know this song:

Delete. Too much Abbots Reserve early in the evening 😀

Leicester less so than Palace, unfortunately.

I know what you mean Steve but still have faith in Pat. It's a far cry from the terrible, boring football under Roy and I'd hate to go back to that under desperation. I'm sure we'll be fine.

Arsenal had their chances but made mistakes and City were too clinical and too good. Surely they're in the driving seat now.

So many fantastic, beautiful songs. RIP Burt.

This season couldn't be going any worse. Gareth is top and I'm bottom. I didn't get Haaland in soon enough as I had my doubts about him. I thought Nunez would be a better bet. That's just one of my many bad decisions!

I saw I Wanna Dance With Somebody last night and was very pleasantly surprised. It was more of tribute to Whitney Houston and focussed more on the music rather than the drugs, etc. The songs were great, especially the early stuff and the covers before she got a record deal. The background soundtrack includes some great songs from Stevie, Chaka and Luther. I saw that Rodney Jerkins was the man responsible in the opening credits so I knew it'd be good. It also featured a brief cameo of an actress playing Anita Baker. Superb performance from Stanley Tucci too as Clive Davis.

I love this Ronnie Dyson song. One of his best

Saw her last time she was here in 2019. Great performer.

I don't consider myself a collector. I've got quite a lot of records but only buy what I really like at a low price. A lot of those have gone up but I'm happy keeping them. I'm quite happy buying CDs too.
