Hypsville 365ad Playlist Update 19

The Red & Blue Albums had to be done as the old albums have vanished to make room for newer stuff may stick all the old SR stuffon Youtube If I can figure out how to put mp3s together, but so busy colouring may not bother
Alan Whicker Mod..
One thing I miss alot around Christmas is John Peels festive 50 thought I'd try and recreate the experience although won't be as good but may create some new robo artists out of it like the Beached Bouys The Roys and The Darned.
Third David Bonie lp don't sound as good voice wise as the Udio (FFS get it sorted ) but it's got that proto glam superhero rock thing the real DB was going for back when he was playing in the Toby Jug in Tolworth lol
Third Sell-Outs long player produced by Steve Albino featuring Thom Yorkshireman from Nagshead on the track "Francis Rossi will have his Revenge on Wembley" should record a Nagshead Lp in 26 if Suno don't do a Udio,
1989 Debut of Rose Patrol a nod to Mani 2025 the year of Gutted
Ann Thrax "A Fistful of Thrash Metal"
Bootgazin' comp I'll slowley put together over the weeks

Wanted to get back into the Swing of things with Rat Pact who were so far ahead they were covering songs from the future. 


 Silver Ramons Christmas Single "Is It Christmas?"  may stick a few more novelty Crimbo tunes to this Various Artists  selection


 Probably slow down with this stuff over the Christmas season but then again...


 

 

 The  Oh No's first album  from March 1963 The Silver Ramons "trouble and strifes "(another excuse attempt the Mersey Sound


 An attempt at a Dirty Harry style soundtrack   for One Eyed Jack would make a good live action 1970's 

Cop Series . To the untrained brain this is what others call Slop but it's Astral Slop coming from my head

Zenith Fan Art Colouring Project - Episode 1-"Dropping In" & Episode 2 "Blow Up"


 Chapter 1 & 2  of Zenith first printed in 2000ad back in 1987 in black and white at the time I'd buy two copies so I could colour various strips with felt tips  so this is second time around   I've attempted to do  this only it's  38 years later  and with photoshop , 38 years seems like  is a blink of the eye I remember the era vividly Boris Becker first Wimbeldon and Gilbert the Alien , two years away from leaving school , I even made a big folder for my art at school which had Zenith's logo and a Watchmen smiley -it actually felt like the times were a changin' - Finally after my last Zenith post we get to meet the titular character 



 

 












Seems like the many angled ones are back in 2025 we need Zenith more than ever -I wonder if anyone can convince Grant to write Zenith Phase 5 ? seeing as Red Dragons flying so high at the moment in 2000ad
