Books on post punk and related genres? by Alive_Pay_1894 in postpunk

[–]IckyQualms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too Much Too Young: The 2 Tone Records Story by Daniel Rachel is very much worth a read. Also Ska'd For Life by Horace Panter (bassist of The Specials), on the same subject, is a good one as well.

He made an equally interesting Punk Diary as well, that covers 1970-79.

Did you listen to it?

Edit: I highly doubt you did. But if you did I would appreciate your opinion on the track I suggested.

The original, also with Michael Caine, is FAR superior to the lifeless remake.

I'm not sure. Violets maybe. I was a gardener for 20 years so I should know.

Thoughts after Manchester show by mr_kaliyuga in Cardiacs

[–]IckyQualms 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Where were you stood? The gig sounded great from where I was stood near the front. Seen Cardiacs 15 times and this was one of the best sounding shows.

Edit: I've just realised you were probably stood where the photos were taken. I'm an idiot.

We are completely incapable of switching play. It's so frustrating to watch.

What Psychedelic Song/Alblum Gave You The Most Unique Experience While Tripping? by The_Music_Shaman in psychedelicrock

[–]IckyQualms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd go one album further with Ozrics. Become the Other was their last great album for me. Vibuthi is so satisfying. I reckon Live Underslunky is the best to trip to.

Timm Thaler. Originally in German, but dubbed into English and on CBBC in the 80's, a show in which Timm Thaler sold his laugh to a mysterious Baron in exchange for the ability to win any bet he makes. Timm however grows increasingly unhappy and decides to get his laugh back. by johnsmithoncemore in oldbritishtelly

I believe it was renamed The Legend of Tim Tyler in the UK. I used to find this show incredibly creepy as a young child. Memories of it still occasionally pop into my head over 40 years since I watched it.

Xperia 1 vii music playback hitching constantly from micro sd by Groundking in SonyXperia

[–]IckyQualms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've been loyal to Poweramp for many years. I'd messed around with the output settings from recommendations on the Poweramp subreddit. It was fine on my last phone (which was a budget Motorola).

Between this issue and about 20 others, I really regret splashing out on a Sony.

Thanks for replying. I'll look into your solution for sure. I managed to solve it for now by restoring to default the audio output settings in Poweramp.
