firbeck 859 Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Bip Is your computer ok, as trying to play this has made mine go loopy, get your virus gear on to it as soon as possible. Don't touch it with a barge pole friends, something isn't quite right here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fynger 841 Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Works ok here....damn short tho....just opened in windows media player fine....i've listened to it twice and it sounds a bit 'Del Shannon'ish' to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beefsteak 305 Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Nothing wrong with it. Plays fine here. I've checked it with Avast and Spybot malware and Spybot virus/ Trojan/ worm and none of them have found any thing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
firbeck 859 Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Must be someone from the X Factor then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
firbeck 859 Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 I apologise if I've caused panic in the ranks friends, but seriously, I've just had my laptop cleansed and beautified and attempting that download sent the damn thing into overdrive. I have lost automatic password access to everything, perhaps I'm being over sensitive, but I had to press the switch off button and go through a disc check which revealed a few new problems. I didn't want you lot to have your computers screwed up as well. My missus' company employs a computer specialist who has to battle everyday against hackers, he's in despair, and we've had to battle against so many dodgy viruses that have given us real grief recently. Malwarebytes has revealed nothing too, thats ok then, panic over, but I'm still not going to try and look at the clip again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's short but then that is all they played during the documentary otherwise, if i'd a' got more lyrics then i'd have googled the lyrics and come up with the answer that way. It's a pity that M$shaft operating systems are so fragile but that's not my fault. Use a man's operating system - use Linux. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That clip was created using a debian linux operating system and the clip was scanned with clamav virus scanner and nothing untoward was found. That doesn't mean that one or more of the M$shaft based antivirus sytems wont come up with false positives. Heck, windows XP service pack 2? or 3? and above wont even let you download most things with bittorrent without them shouting virus and that's just by going on the file name. I'd apologise for causing anyone the frights but why should I apologise for crappy os's and there flakey av systems? Uuse them at your own risk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beefsteak 305 Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Gadge, calm your sensative self down , no body is asking you to appologise, you've posted something in good faith I accept and appreciate that, I checked it and found no problem with it (Ain't gorra clue who it is though!!) But don't start having a 'pop' at some one who's system coincidently went t*ts up when tring to veiw a listen only file !!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
firbeck 859 Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Sorry Gadge, but it obviously sparked off something in the bowells of this thingymajig, shoving crap into peoples computers for the hell of it seems to be a national sport these days, I'm sorry if it caused you grief when you meant good intent, I'm still not going to attempt to look at it though, have you got a bit more of it elsewhere to look at.

Guest Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Have listened to the clip and am working on it- give me a couple of days- maybe on the Truimph label- digging to be done!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
siddha 822 Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Its like someone has sampled a version of Calendar Girl (Neil Sedaka) and blended it with something else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Could be- but if it is a Joe Meek song it could have 'session'guys like Ritchie Blackmore or Keith Emerson. Gettin out da 7". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Half way thru!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Right! Have gone thru 86 singles and b- sides of Joe Meek related stuff- herself sat and listened to some and was amazed! I must say for a punk loving ted who loved Gerry mulligan and reggae i did have good taste at 17-20 years old. These demo and DJ singles are very pricey now- most were from junk shops!! Back to thread in hand- it's a Joe meek-- himself demo- i have no title- i think it is on a CD comp called meeky meeky- i don't have it... Phew!!! tea and a catch up!!
