I was talking about the second one - I've just heard Akufen's Fabric mix, which has Smoke On The Water on it and it sounds great in the mix, but when I bought the album last year, I returned it cos it was way too gimmicky as you said - these things need to be spread out thin, it's only when you stick them together that they are seen to be cheap novelties

Plus, Senor on stage was fabulous... The Nouvelle Vague, on first listen, didn't strike me as really good, though it is a funny idea and tracks will soon end up on Buddha Bar / trendy lounge comps and the like...

I have it - if you listen to one or two of the songs I think its different, melodic and quite nicely done however if you try and listen to the album as a whole its all in the same vein and gets pretty repetitive (all good just not at the same time is my view) Cheers BT ##################################################################################### Note: Any views or opinions are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Channel Four Television Corporation unless specifically stated.
