"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

I remember that a snippet of this Andy Pratt track appearing in either a DJ Shadow song, or a Shadow tribute mix. Wholly appropriate.

You can never fault a band that built a city on rock and roll; Even if they perhaps suck.

If you spend enough time in the record stores of Cambridge, you will eventually receive an Andy Pratt business card, which reads "70s Rock Legend." He's a sweet guy.

The Action were such a great band. Can't help feeling that they would have prospered more if they hadn't plumped for 'Mighty Baby' as their successor name. Ye Gods, it's terrible.

It says right on Bryce's playlist page that he is "punctual." No other DJ tries to make that claim. How can he be late?
