Not often I come across a completely new (to me) glam tune these days but you've done it again Andy So that's from a compilation album of Mike Berry productions with the compelling title of Bubbleglam? Is it worth acquiring?

...i don't have that particular Comp, Nigey so i couldn't comment on that. I used that link from YouTube as it was the best quality audio i could find. But Machines by NING has been included on a couple of Compilations... and not just of Glam either.
Trust me when i tell you, when it comes to GLAM, what you have heard is barely scratching the surface... i acknowledge that compared to my old friend Wombling Tim Purr i am but a mere JUNKSHOPGLAM Novice.

Wombling Tim Purr has assumed mythical status in my mind
What happened to your weekly gatherings complete with Tizer, Curly Wurleys, Party Seven, and the Softly Softly Task Force DVD boxset?
Did you do on Zoom?
Or were you on hiatus?
Have you restarted yet? If not, I expect you're itching to get on your chopper and pedal round to TP's gaff.

...Timmy is a Legend In His Own Lunchtime. I have just been for a 12 mile bike ride with the great man today, and i pleased to report that he's looking more and more like Orinoco Womble with each passing day. And... yes i still ride my 3 speed Chopper Bike upto Glam Mansions for a glass or two of Cresta and a packet of Spangles out in the garden. Of late he has been helping out Lorenzo and Danilo from the Giuda Horde on a new release. More on that when it is officially announced.

Exciting times - and a 12 mile bike ride. Well done Andy. Is this something you do regularly? i still ride my 3 speed Chopper Bike upto Glam Mansions for a glass or two of Cresta and a packet of Spangles out in the garden. Delighted and reassured by this news
Have you watched Budgie? It's ripe for reappraisal. Currently showing on Talking Pictures TV. I've got the DVD. Holds up really well.
I reckon you and Tim would find much to enjoy and appreciate
We have our own thread on this very forum in the TV/Film section
Of late Wombling Tim Purr has been helping out Lorenzo and Danilo from the Giuda Horde on a new release. More on that when it is officially announced. Looking forward to you being able to reveal all Talking of which we probably need an official Giuda thread...

FYI - Lorenzo from Giuda worked on and released a side project last year called ZAC, with a pianist friend from Rome. ZAC is alot lighter, more pop, more romantic, less Glam than Giuda, but the whole album is enchanting...

Thanks for the tip Andy - had no idea he'd done this side project Yes... Lorenzo started writing songs that he felt were not suitable for Giuda, so ZAC was born. There was talk of him/them playing London... and then the Pandemic hit. Giuda were all set to play Japan for the first time in April... again that had to be cancelled.
