A has a few decent tunes, but lets itself down badly with Steve Miller and The Kinks.
B, by contrast, is fucking ace all the way through.

B is ace. Opium for the People? Loved that song since I was in the 5th form. A few other corkers, too. A is fine and dandy but B has a few personal favourites on it.

Despite some standouts(I have used the same Beefheart track myself before) there's too much in B that rubs me up the wrong way. A doesn't entirely convince but does enough.

Re: BCB Cup 2015 Round 1 Match 22
A couple of stumbles in A but the rest is assured and lighly funky.
I fear that too much time spent in B's company would result in a visit to the Nit Nurse or a Kohl overdose.

It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man.

Another accurate count from Mr Gash.
B was Belle Lettre. I will calculate the best losers after the final results are in tonight.
A, you need to get me three new songs by 20:00 GMT tomorrow, Sunday. PMs work now.
