Hello everyone
 Sorry but have had a virus on my PC & was offline for 3  weeks.
Look what's happened since ! Not great news about Bruce - but not  surprising
as many have commented.And life goes on. Noone has died over this  & their
individual output should still be interesting.
I'm catching up on over 400 e-mails & this tiff over Kevin Eden's  comments
may get worse or better later on as I am starting from the earliest  e-mails
but I didn't find his "smugness" offensive - just a tad insensitive as  this
group I've loved since I was 16 (nearly 30 years now) deserve better than  to
go
out with a wimper.
There are lots more topics to keep our happy group interested & if we  are
heading for a barreb spell then so be it.
We have been through similar before.
I've been buying some cracking stuff recently & reading back copies of  The
Word.Anybody else take this magazine.I must admit I don't class myself as a
#50 quid bloke but damn I must be as I have all the traits of one according
to
their editorial last month.

Hey Ari

I have to admit that's true.But you get reasonably unbiased album reviews  & 
they cover books & films too.I'm very busy at work at present &  haven't time 
to wade through the Sundays so as a digest it suits me.Still get Q  Magazine 
as well but the contents so so..

I've never actually seen a copy of the Word. I suspect its having
distribution problems fighting for shelf space,

Well I get a copy every month from my local BP garage ! It's been going  
about 2 years now & Mark Ellen & David Hepworth are shareholders &  main 
contributors in the thing.It's pretty good for a mianstream title.
You can usually get a free CD as well.New & old stuff which is way  better 
than most samplers.Even had an old Hank williams track last month which  was 
gorgeous.
