On any post, if the link is no longer good, leave a comment if you want the music re-uploaded. As long as I still have the file, or the record, cd, or cassette to re-rip, I will gladly accommodate in a timely manner all such requests.

    I haven't picked a winner in a while. I have been just liking the variety & adding all these great Singles to my archives. Not knowing that much about Dreadzone, yesterday I tried their Single & really enjoyed it. Then today I tried The Warning & realized it was the same songs as got yesterday. I went back to the Round 7 share & saw that you had fixed the link. So I tried Life, Love, & Unity & now I have two votes for Dreadzone, one for yesterday & one for today. I hope that's all right.

      Sorry for any confusion my mistake caused, but glad you went back & grabbed L,L,&U. Absolutely nothing wrong with two votes for two dofferent days. I'll add them to the Board. Thanks for the comment & good to hear from you again.

    Dreadzone. Yep, liked this. All 4 tracks. I'm familiar with the two first two tracks but hadn't realised that they were Dreadzone until now. Bass heavy, mixing Dub and House - good stuff.

    Utah Saints. Leaving me cold today. Sorry.

    ACR. Another great showing from ACR. "Backs to the Wall" is a classic. The remix of "Backs to the Wall" is new to me - a kind of halfway to being "B T T W 90" from ACR:MCR. "Be What You Wanna be" - also on ACR:MCR, my most played and favourite ACR album.

    The Shamen. Mmmmm, bored sorry. Even the Zion Train remix failed to excite me.

    Dreadzone coming second again now we've got into the more 'mature' offerings from ACR. ACR for the win...

      Thanks, That Bloke. I thought for a minute Dreadzone had won you over. Also, I had exactly the same reaction to The Shamen. I was looking forward to the Zion Train remix as they have always seemed to please in the past, but the track was just underwhelming. I'll tally up the Leader Board.

    This is Utah Saints' finest moment. If they don't win the day, then democracy truly is a dead horse. There will be nothing for it but a hand-tallied recount, no voting machines, no mail-in ballots, none of this "oops, wrong upload" chicanery.

      So, that's one vote for Utah Saints. Is that what you're saying? Did I get that right?

      Counting me and the missus, our 3 dogs, 2 cats and 2 kids -- let's call it an even 7 votes for the You Tah Saints.
