Thanks for response folks
Here's a post from another forum I take part in, kinda self-explanatory really:

Post your compilation lists Tone, I still think you're Mr Super-cool You were DJ-ing when i first saw 'Here and Now' at the Saxon Tavern, Low Rider was the track you played before they came on. I've still got the bootleg

I am Groovy, I am Cool, oh boy. Oh yes, old too
Ok, here goes.....

Stunning value for just ten of your English Guineas, just click here to order now.
Alternatively available as a whole bunch of mp3’s on one CD for 50p at your local boot sale.
So, DTB asked, I will oblige.
Ten so far, more in the pipeline. Started in 2007, activity for this ‘project’ is somewhat lax at the moment.
To me, every track here segues perfectly with the next one but that’s cos I like them all. They certainly wouldn’t fit in with any radio station’s playlist. Well, not unless they managed to resurrect John Peel anyway.
I’d also be surprised, pleasantly, if any individual here was familiar with and liked all of the tracks listed. As mentioned, this is very much a personal choice and I sincerely DGAF about any criticism cos that’s just the way I was programmed. And to be honest, music from my formative years I’m always going to like, I think that’s the same for everybody.
