With great sadness we share that Vince Williams passed away in the early hours of today Monday 13th October.

After a quick decline in his health, Vince was moved to the Lister Hospital on Saturday afternoon.

Vince was deeply loved and will be missed every day.

6! The Skids, Tom Tom Club, Billy MacKenzie, The Motors, The Bible i was lucky to get thr double album version of this, Bob Marley. Do I win prize??!! :-)

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · 20d

Well they did in a way. All the album tracks were released on a "Budget" Camden CD called Emerald And Diamonds which now goes for a gazillion pounds.
We are waiting for a glorious release of it on one of those fabulous boutique labels... :-)

Fascinating fact of the day! This contains am unique version of Antmusic by Adam And The Ants which is over 30 secs longer than the album version and over a minute longer than the single mix.

So you pay more for both?? The 7" is £14.99 and the 12" is £24.99 making them £39.98......
I think not!

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · 28d

I see that Bo Rap is being re-released AGAIN! It's not like originals are hard to get!
But THIS time it is both on 7" AND 12" for a stupid price! Same tracks as the original of course. Who wants to pay the extra tenner?
Besides @avavsystems.bsky.social who thinks that an extra 5 inches is worth it!

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · 28d

I don't have to, I've already got one!
Don't ask Andy fot TV recommendations, he knows NOTHING!

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · 28d

MUG!!

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · 28d

Nope! It's The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway box set.
I do have the 3 boxsets covering 1970 to 2008 but they are only 5.1 surround.....

Well when Don "The Don" Estelle final releases a Dolby Atmos mix then I'm stuck with a limited selection.

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · 28d

What an album to test me new Dolby Atmos system!!!
Looking forward to my Genesis, Pink Floyd, Frankie and Propaganda's blu-ray releases.

I think I can answer this question. Although I have now given up work due to illness, my small business was owned and run by 3 people.
I am the only one who has No Parlez so the answer is a third of all business owners. If you need me to come on and discuss this we can negotiate a fee.....

Whilst I'm afraid that will never be true for Tom Bell as @gmcgiv.bsky.social will always be the one and only Ford this is very good. It needs funding to become a full series which I hope it gets.

Paul's favourite album....

The Cranberries- If Everyone else is doing it then why can't we?

Does they make him look like he knows what he is doing for a change?

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · Sep 15

Whilst that would be nice, the "secret" issues all so far have been unrelated to the previous item and not ones I would ever choose to buy.

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · Sep 15

Weird! Treated myself to a Dolby Atmos reciever over the weekend as I have quite a few @super-deluxe.bsky.social releases with more on the way and thought that WTTP by Frankie would be a great addition to their releases. What do I see on their website today? Yep WTTP by Frankie! Get in there!

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · Sep 12

It's a bit more of a dull rock nowadays.....

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · Sep 12

Yep!

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · Sep 12

Haven't done that for a while. Just been on a word and name blocking spree! This isn't the other place, I don't want to see people shouting at clouds over politics!

Vince Williams @golfyfun.bsky.social · Sep 12

I believe this did for their career in the US. A video containing two, young, half dressed men frolicking in the sea was just too much for the yanks!

I don't see why not, I do think @stevehacketthq.bsky.social has done a brilliant job on his Genesis Revisited project.
