Well worth the effort though as it capped off a great weekend , thanks again to Ady and the gang for the continued madness , hope the bubbles were OK ... Shot a pre-eclipse tester to make sure everything was connected correctly and focus nailed before grabbing 350 frames at 15 second intervals for a timelapse of the first half between 02:00 and 03:40 before firing off 170 rapid frames for a 'totality' shot at 03:50.

Full size ... http://www.astrobin.com/full/214815/0/ Timelapse of the first half of the eclipse , should have held my nerve and stuck with one exposure really ... Now time to catch up on the sleep methinks ...

Nothing like Rhetta Hughes ... ! I'd have remembered that having uploaded it on a Mixcloud tape an hour ago ...

I have this on a Saus tape from the 90's , posted the mix on here a while back and this was one track that remained unidentified ...

"Wigan was the last regular focal point ... " ... that'll be the sort of comment that'll do it no end of good ... Obviously another from "oop narth" that's never dared or been bothered to make the journey to Oxford Street at any point in the last 36 years ...

A tape from '96 packed full of goodies , but what most of them are has me scratching my head ... My feeble powers of recall have me stumped on most of these , have got Debbie Rollins , Syl Johnson , Ben E. King , Jimmy 'Preacher' Ellie and Patti Austin but the rest are a big blank ...

I'd say it's a boot ...

No not mine , I was judging on the rather amateurish letter spacing an rounded corners on your copy ...

The printing looks very suspect to me ... compared to this one anyway ... ?

Best snap I've taken this week ...

Bet you kept it for the poster if it was the "Save Me" album ...

And why ... ?

The CD sleevenotes tell the story , as to whether the great man commented on it perhaps Ady would be the man to ask ... ? https://acerecords.co.uk/gettin-to-me
