										anyone head this, i remember (i think) someone talking about it a while ago, its basically 'ok computer' performed by the Easy Star All Stars, the same dudes who did Dub Side of the Moon, and it is f**king awesome!  
  
 much more downbeat than dub side, and a whole load of reggae legends, horacy andy, toots (!!!!) sugar minottetc lending vocals, but all in its quality. 
  
 groovy, only word.

 Every critic should compile a 'oh no, I really did rate them didn't I' list every year. 
  
 Carroll is NOW spot on with Tapes N Tapes. I'd bet if we went through the year's recommendations, that amount of sheer awfulness would be akin to the Irish soccer team |  |  |  | 14 | 2705 |  by  bort  11/30/2006 3:32 AM |

										Test your musical skills in 6 minutes  2568  4

										Originally developed as a quick online way to screen for tonedeafness, this tool turned out to be a pretty good test to check for overall pitch perception ability. The test is purposefully made very hard, so excellent musicians rarely score above 80 correct. It's actually quite difficult, and will let you know if it's true that you really can't carry a tune, not even in a bucket.
