When I was younger kid, and in my teens, the 60s were chronologically much closer to us in the 80s and 90s, than the 80s are to us now. But it seemed like a completely different era. Much of the media was in black and white, the fashions were completely different and there were no computers, no cel...

I don't typically care much about chart positions but I'm finding this interesting. Are any of the Best Of albums charting as well? Any other vintage songs?

I don't know if I'd go that far. :) The ad is about how the driver saved $700 by switching insurance companies, which allows him to afford the car. He's taking advantage of an 'opportunity' to save money. I wouldn't say it's about being rich, just about being smarter with your money. Anyway, I see A...

Did anyone in the US see the post Super Bowl commercial for Allstate Insurance? It features Opportunities! Not sure if this was it's premiere or if it's been on for a while now but it took me by surprise! I don't see it online yet but I assume it will hit their YouTube channel soon. In the 30 second...

The listing contains a link to a sample of the contents. It appears to be the full song (but the sample chops it up so you get bits from different sections). It says it was sold as a souvenir. It sounds to me that it's just a high quality 'rip' of the master. Not something used to create the song in...

Loved 'It's a Sin' and bought Actually when I saw it had a free CD single of Always On my Mind. Though I hadn't heard their version yet, I always liked that song and was willing to give it a shot. Loved those two songs but the rest of the album was 'meh.' I bought Discography for some reason but I j...

Honestly, I probably wouldn't have even noticed that the music was slowed down. But I would agree that the speed of the songs in the film should match the commercial releases. It's highly unlikely there was a directorial decision to slow them down specifically for use in the film.

Got my copy today and had a quick look at the technical traits of the contents. All the DVD content is 25 fps. All the Blu-ray content is 24 fps (and that is precisely 24, not 23.976) [...] So, it is clear to me what needs to be done with all the content but Always on my mind : take the Blu-ray fil...

Hard work! I wanted to do it myself, now a don't heave to. Thanx. And don't forget this one: https://player.vimeo.com/video/255585290?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0&player_id=vimeography690353&api=1&app_id=122963 I didn't know about that one!!! I'll have to go through my sync point...

FWIW my copy arrived in Chicago today from BFI. Very well packaged.

Interesting discussion here. I'll have to compare this with my laserdisc copy.

Thanks everyone for your kind words about my work on this. I strived to make it 'right'. I certainly don't blame N&C for releasing an edited version on CD. What they said in Literally is exactly right - it's a 9 minute track where five minutes of it is essentially the same four bars repeated ove...

Nope. I've not found them either. I think someone posted a link that got taken down pretty quickly as it breaks forum rules and some people happened to be online at the right time.

Information Society's first album was CD+G. Yeah, it was very low quality graphics, like a slide show, that played still graphics while you were listening to the CD. I remember I had to use a Sega Genesis with Mega CD(?) to view these.

No PSB discs were released using this format.

^^ I was able to get decent seats for a change but I kept the seat selection page open while working on some work stuff. It was surprising and annoying seeing BETTER seats come up in premium sections at the same price I paid for my section 2 seats. I would have been better off just sitting and watch...
