Re: Let BCB take you out of your comfort zone..
just posting from my phone (net at home is on the fritz) to say i got Oscar's listener friendly Prog collection. I plan to play it tonight during my usually-quite-comfortable drive to Katoomba for pub quiz. Will report back in tomorrow hopefully!

I don't need that one (makes a change I hear you say) , but I would be interested in the tracklisting if that is possible?
Haven't compiled it yet (since noone's interested) but would certainly put Taste, Free, Tramline, Chicken Shack, early Mac, Keef Hartley, Mayall on it.

I have and love all of those except Tramline - never heard of them? (wanders off to do a little research)
the rat is back - more or less!

I could quibble, but what's the point. Oscar's got some good stuff on there and if you don't like reggae after this, well. . . you ain't gonna get it.
Nice inclusion of Chase the Devil.
Don't fake the funk on a nasty dunk!

No idea what the good stuff is and where to start. Most CDs by these artist are out of print or pricey imports over here.
I can do this for you! PM me and its on its way.

My thanks to Len for his rather splendid Northern Soul sampler.
Thanks the Nick and Len I now have a more enlightened view of this genre.
