The Smashing Tunes Thread (Part 1)

Just on that - notice that when I post a youtube link now a big pile of crap comes up. Then when I edit and put the link in again, it’s fine.

Not familiar at all with him NCC. I have heard of him but that’s about it.

I am still very much a CD purchaser (love it) so not an expert on the whole downloading game.

So basically I am of no help to you. Apologies.

Couple of problems with this recently:

  1. that problem you refer to where the “pile of crap” comes up instead of the video when you post it.

Hopefully that’s solved now by some changes I just made. Edit - Fuck it’s not. Will have to look at it again.

  1. videos not playing or videos saying “no longer available”

Usually the “videos no longer available” have either been pulled from youtube or the video owner didn’t allow embedding so not sure much can be done about that.

The problem with playing might be restricted to Firefox - anyone who’s had problems care to let me know what browser they were using.

I know Seasick Steve alright.

is his album worth buying?

From what I’ve heard from him he is definitely alternative and if you are into odd guitar music he is worth a listen. I saw him on Jools Holland before playing a song with only 3 strings on the guitar. I heard he has a song that he plays with only one string, must try download that come to think of it.

whats a good downlad site?

he is playing in Dublin soon I think

I generally use Limewire for my music downloads. Im sure there are rapidshare links etc around, just a question of finding them I suppose. You could always download any videos off youtube and then just convert the video to a sound file.

cheers
