We have reached a point —  where it is essential to speak about the continued Russian Scandal. As the game of thrones like political oust, has demonstrated and  Mariano  Rajoy is out. This is more than just a minor controversy it´s a national drama.  While this is explosive and damaging, the major scandal is sprawling and leaking out, as evidence suggests that the Russians have played a hand in the fall of Mariano Rajoy.  News is still coming in from the boundaries and it's a  blurry affair. As ever the Russians are fast to react and defend their case. However this time the cover-up comes in the form of a cover song from the fortified Kremlin . The Kremlin  normally remain silent however the have broken the  constitutional parameters with a Blues  lament  with strong Russian undertones for Mariano Rajoy. P receding to pass through several  episodes, and themes however is this enough to eliminate  the Russians from this new Spanish scandal ?   What is worse the crim

Newcleus - Computer Age (Push The Button) (1984)

Computer Age (Push the button) sounds as fresh today as it did 35 years ago.  Newcleus, have been jamming on it forever now, this track helped many others to push the button, as did the Jam on it track.  Ben Cozmo D Cenac pushed a button that never stopped, actually it helped to trigger so much, when you hear this kind of music, you want to start lockin, popping, and looking for cardboard to break on!  As someone commented on Youtube " JAMS for grown ups!!" Word.. I am glad, I had the pleasure of knowing and feeling Newcleus from the day this was launched,  been cranking in my playlist for 35 years, and the CRANK continues to JAM ON IT.

Purple Haze - Kronos Quartet

The Kronos Quartet doing a blotted or hazy version of Jimmy Hendrix Purple Haze. Quite a thing. I wonder if the San Francisco quartet were lucky enough to enjoy Jimmy live or the Haze of back yonder. They certainly have been around long enough to try the Haze, smoked or in blotted paper format, perhaps both and all, and they would be in the right geographical location too. With or without a smoke or blotted paper, I like Jimmy and this version has been morphing around my senses and ears for sometime.

Miriam Makeba - The Click Song (Distinct Version)

Lemmy 'Special' Mabaso : See you later - My friend Jamie Steels soundtrack

In Madrid's sierra, 'neath the stars so bright, Our family gathered horizontal that night. Comets blazed across the sky, a sight so grand, While Lemmy's music plays, a life's soundtrack, so grand. And Jamie claimed this theme his life Laughter fills the air, as we imagined Jamie shopping to this sound, dreams within reach, Under starlit skies, we silently preach. Hopes and dreams, in the night, took flight, In the galaxys embrace, we found delight. In the garden of the Steels.
