*SHM-CD (Super High Material CD) is a superior quality CD that is fully compatible with all CD players. SHM-CD utilizes a polycarbonate material originally developed for LCD screens, and the enhanced transparency of the SHM-CD results in more clarity, depth and definition of sound, bringing the listener ever closer to the music of the original master.

Cheers, Ray! Hello everyone, hope yere getting into the festive spirits now like us!
Glad you had a moan, Ray, now we’re allowed, haha. Feck it, there’s a lot alright!

Went to the Bruce Springsteen movie last night. Really enjoyed it. Class how it delves into how he made Nebraska and that period in his life with the past in mind. Very good. Acting was great in it.

Before I hit ye with the list, folks, just want to remind ye that my fundraiser EP for Pieta House is still running. Buy the album for 6.15 euro, download my (bÚkl) 4 song EP and 5 euro from each purchase goes to the great charity Pieta House. Here is the link to purchase/donate: https://bukl.bandcamp.com/album/cro-ep-for-pieta-house 
The fundraiser ends on November 7th, so only a few days left. Thanks again.

Getting the newsletter out a bit later this evening. Our dog Taylor was under the weather again so we had to pop out to the vet. A ‘pinched nerve’ (really)…so a bit of a storm in a teacup but look, she’s grand. On painkillers. Anyway, sorry for rambling on.

There’s a mega RAMMSTEIN Singles box set that caught my eye. Mad expensive though. THE SCRATCH, great Dublin trad/metal band, have a new album, and also Dublin’s AILBHE REDDY has a new album too which caught my eye.
Here’s the list anywhoo:

here’s a track, nice electronic sound: https://youtu.be/CHxU0PQnSEE?si=95sC–TX7geL6sba

here’s a new tune from them, title track: https://youtu.be/NeCqhZ36ueQ?si=cb9r0mxVESsErHK3

That’s all for down the road today so.. Back to Ray for the send off.

Thanks Shane

Sin e for this week folks

Thanks for listening as always

Ray, Shane, Adam and Mia
