My first copies of GT and TIMTTMY were on MiniDisc, mostly for the novelty of it I think. Didn't own CD copies of either until maybe ten years ago. I think I ended up giving them to a charity shop in the end. Wish I'd been a bit more resourceful!

Still, it's a bit odd as they're pretty much obsolete. Unlike tapes, for which blanks, pre-recordeds and decks are still made in bulk, and never really went away for underground/DIY music, MiniDiscs have descended into true obscurity. I used to follow a MiniDisc label (n5MD) and they had to change to CD as they could no longer get their MDs professionally made, and I'm struggling to find any evidence of newly made hi-fis or separates available.

I suppose they never sold too well and stopped being made which makes them rare and thus collectors items.

JDB gets a mention in this morning's Popbitch message board closing-down email special. Changed my mind about posting the whole thing after waiting for someone else to do it!

Classic Popbitch layout

JDB does seem like the type that can't sit still.

Vacuming her lounge? Bit inconsiderate to wake her up no?

It doesn't sound like James Dean Bradfield as it doesn't mention pies.

Dose anyone else hear "Belsen Was A Gas" (Sex Pistols) in the last section of Mausoleum? Musically, I mean, not lyrics...

If so... that's either a weird or very apt choice of inspiration, given the subject.

'Rockin' in Havana like a Manic Street Preacher...'

Oh god, I hadn't listened to that Ian Brown rap in years but it never gets old... or good.

JDB is flying a kite...
Like Mr Banks in Mary Poppins' sight...
Decadence is a word I like
A guy called Mike is on the mic!*

*I may have misremembered some of these lines

Remains one of the most heart-warmingly silly Manics moments. I guffaw every time it comes on.

Otherwise not a bad remix though.
