It was indeed Steve Strange playing himself in 'Ashes To Ashes'. Sandrine Gouriou was also playing herself.

Gents, there's already a thread about the MS2000 - please post in there.

Although not a tape echo per se, have you looked into the Boss RE-20, Mitch? It's a modelled recreation of the RE-201, boasting simulations of the flutter.

Here's a clip of the making of Keff McCulloch's version of the Doctor Who (Sylvester McCoy) theme from the kid's magazine program 'Corners' on BBC.

I think this odd thread has run its course now. Fawlty Towers has closed for the weekend due to getting O'Reilly's builders in. :wink:

Glad to hear it amused - nice one! :wink:

A song for those bad days.

I finally got it together and finished off some scrawlings that I started last July. It's a tune about having a shitter of a day, and how nice it would be if it ended like this one! :lol: It's called 'One Of Those Days'. http://media.putfile.com/One-Of-Those-Days-29 This opus was brought to you in a...

Just need Marc to get his fixed so he can demo it! I always think of the introduction to Captain Scarlet when I read ...
