I.O.U by Freeeze.

Serious marketing fail, that one.
Umm, yes, I didn't even know TiVo was available. Might have something to do with having MySky and being with Vodafone, but still, usually global brands launching locally make some sort of splash. Of course I might be living under a rock.

I liked Coil too, and a bit of SoM. For some reason this reminded me of these guys. They were a bit revolutionary (pun intended) in their time.

My Zanzibar favourite was Stephanie Mills’ ‘Pilot Error’.
My Zanzibar favourite (yes, I was a bit young, but hey) was this;
Danced pretty randomly with a certain boy about town of Dutch decent, as I recall. DJs dropping off the wall songs like this in the mix were always highlights for me in the 80s.

Hard News: Really good, actually, in reply to Anonymous Author,
My immortality decreases as I write.
I very much doubt that. You write, while many are left floundering in the well of lost plots. A story untold is not a story at all.
