Daggers Posted 21 September 2006 Posted 21 September 2006 This could be a really shit idea...but lob thirtyish of your favourite tracks together and I'll try to compile them into a tribute Festive 40, which I may even burn to CD... Just getting to 30 was a tough job, and I only considered my MP3's - if I looked at the CD's and records I'd be here until then end of wahey! My Favourite Dress ~ The Wedding Present Tank ~ Stranglers Touch Too Much ~ AC/DC I'm An Upstart ~ Angelic Upstarts Lenny Valentino ~ The Auteurs Stand Down Margeret (dub) ~ The Beat Lady Madonna ~ The Beatles Positive Tension ~ Bloc Party Love Song ~ The Damned California Ãœber Alles ~ Dead Kennedys Warhead ~ UK Subs Gotta Gettaway ~ Stiff Little Fingers Freak Scene ~ Dinosaur Jr Three Little Birds ~ Bob Marley Needle In The Hay ~ Elliot Smith Paintwork ~ The Fall Bob Wilson Anchorman ~ HalfMan HalfBiscuit The Harder They Come ~ Jimmy Cliff Working Class Hero ~ Lennon Living For The City ~ Stevie Wonder Fite Dem Back ~ Linton Kwesi Johnson Desaparecido ~ Mano Chao Spanish Stroll ~ Mink De Ville Father and Daughter ~ Paul Simon Comfortably Numb ~ Pink Floyd Levitate Me ~ Pixies Madness ~ Prince Buster Glad To See You Go ~ Ramones Busted ~ Ray Charles Whole wide world ~ Wreckless Eric

Knighton Matt Posted 21 September 2006 Posted 21 September 2006 Call me a dumbass pirate but I don't really understand?! Why festive? Why 40? Thanks
Head Honcho Posted 21 September 2006 Posted 21 September 2006 I'm definitely gonna try it! See you at christmas I take it the festive 50 has been retired out of respect for John Peel
Daggers Posted 21 September 2006 Author Posted 21 September 2006 Why festive? Why 40? Why ~ here Who ~ 40 seemed a manageable number from the totting up perspective, although it may get trimmed to a Top 20 unless we have a decent amount of votes...

Dr The Singh Posted 22 September 2006 Posted 22 September 2006 Band: Alaap Song: Bhabiye ni Bhabiye John Peel was a big fan of this track and played it many times, not very festive though, so i'll leave it your good judgement!!
