19. Set the controls for the heart of the sun / Pink Floyd. (edited to comply with the rules
was the other one.
I know half of 20, in that it's echo Beach, but I couldn't guess who did it.
The older I get, the better I was.

as you see, the captain has followed your bad example
soon points will be deducted for such behaviour
I assumed it was pointless when you'd already given the answer

Laters.
That's a very eclectic mix SG.

b... d...
7. Rhianna
Can't you go back to Volcanic mythology?
strictly punk in the 70s, my aceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed phase was later
i'd happily go back there, been back in uk a week and it already feels like months
maybe i should get a bubble car and move south

21. : You have to give me that, dunno the song.
12 - The Shamen. The rest; not a clue.
Is there a Deep Purple, Creedence Clearwater Revival, America or a Jefferson Airplane in there some where?
too sedate, this is more like it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ja-XwHOH3TI though 70's hawkwind had higher bpm+volume and is therefore even better
2 capt slog
2 lincolndave
8 pinno

Please god this isn't gonna turn into Pinno's "fun" Xmas quiz. That went on until March. And I didn't sleep properly until June.
Don't blame me for your insomnia. I got 21. So boo. Metal Moth ?!
