They have Rainbow's entire discography, so you should be fine.


We'll see.

Something me and Raze have been dumping stuff into

Feel free to paste whatever the strawberry float songs you want into it, but try not to flood it with entire albums (this means you Eight "OK Computer" Hours)


John Farnham added 8-)

Is there any way of telling who added what to the playlist?

There's not. The Queen was mostly me, though. :( Add more stuff and drown it out! :)

Who added the orchestral version of Mama by Genesis? That gooseberry fool is epic man, good find.

OK, I'm quite impressed. It got four of the five tracks I'd selected (although one of them was a live version, rather than the studio version I was looking for). Not bad.

Unfortunately, In Rainbows isn't on there yet (though Radiohead's EMI back catalogue is), but I've managed to add Bodysnatchers from some compilation album.

That'd be me. Never heard it before, I was well impressed!

I still don't use this as often as I should, though until I've got a new hard drive it's the only other way apart from Last.FM and internet radio I can listen to music.

Someone recommended me an external hard drive, so I showed him where he should put his toast. He probably thought it was a drive thru.

Barkmarket, Gruntruck, Liberty 37. I wouldn't have expected any of them to be present, but they're all there with at least one album each.

Wouldn't it make sense to limit this playlist to one song per artist? If not, I'm just going to add all of Sigur Ros' discography to it 8-)

I've been using the service for a few weeks myself now, and it is indeed superb. It's pretty much completely replaced music radio for me, and as the only downside seems to be an advert every once in a blue moon, it's barely any different from sticking an album on.

I like. :)

Can someone do me a favour, and check to see if there are albums by these acts?

Amon Düül II
310
Trans Am

A random selction of the lesser-known should be a good test. If they've got any 310 stuff, I'll be in like a shot.

There are four 310 albums, 13 Amon albums and no Trans Am.

Yes to the first two (quite a lot, too.) Nothing for Trans Am.
