NWR-Gordon-4 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 @Sarahagain I thought the Skaledale fish and chips shop is called 'The Frying Scotsman'? GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishmanoz Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Good one Jacob! And name for us one of the songs you do like please? Try to avoid Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, even if it is on your list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Twinkle Twinkle Little Star?! That's a baby's song! I don't listen to that rubbish! 😆 😉 😀 Two of my favourite songs is 'I Want to Be An Eddie Stobart Driver' and 'Don't Tell I, Tell 'Ee', both of which are by The Wurzels. To be honest with you, that's all I listen to is The Wurzels. GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stubaggieboy Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Never imagined the Wurzels being mentioned on a model rail forum! Brilliant. Surely GNR Gordon one of your top ten tunes has got to be their 2 their 4 their 6 their 8 ets etc, it’s my 3 year old Granddaughters favourite she loves it.

NWR-Gordon-4 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 @walkingthedog I listen to all sorts of songs at work, not by choice abd it’all rubbish; Not music to me. @StuBaggyBoy That‘s not the best Thomas song. The older songs are much than that. GNR-Gordon-4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCDR Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 West Coast Acid Jazz/Rock of the 1960 / 1970s is my scene. 'Jefferson Airplane' and 'The Doors' for example. Cool man! 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Jazz? Rock? Not my type of music! 😆 GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Not if you like the Wurzles it isn’t. For me it’s Skynyrd, Petty, Clapton, Eagles, Cash, Rolling Stones, Beatles........this is daft, basically most things except RAP. 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Never heard of half of those groups, Brian. I hate rap too. That's not music! 😆 GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissaf Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I have 4,018 music tracks in my Glove box..How....because that is where my USB socket is located that is linked to my car sound system. It has a 32GB USB memory stick with 4,018 MP3 songs on it consuming about 16GB..Some years ago I transferred my Vinyl Album collection into MP3 one track at a time. That project took me about 18 months to complete and involved about 200 out of 300 or so Albums that I had at that time. My only regret is not also transferring the 100 Albums of the 300 that I sold to a collector that I didn't transfer. Although I sold off my Vinyl collection, I did keep my CD collection (currently about 200 CDs or so) and that still gets added to even today with newly purchased music, but not as prolifically as I once did. The CDs get ripped to MP3 and added to my car USB memory stick. I rarely buy downloaded music. I prefer to have the physical CD media, even if I play them as MP3. The only time I buy downloads is to obtain a back catalogue item that just isn't available today, or is but but at an exorbitant collectors price. Since my MP3 collection is virtually irreplaceable to me if lost, I keep three lots of backups on different storage devices in different locations..And before someone else says it......I am fully aware that MP3 is a lower quality recording than an original CD. But these days I don't have High Definition ears. I do my transfers at the maximum 320Kbs rate to compensate as much as one can..I consider my music collection to be small. The family of a friend of mine had to dispose of more than 10,000 Vinyl records (mostly singles) when he died two years ago.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I have 860 something CD's all downloaded onto a Brennan B2. I agree with Chris regarding MP3. I have MP3 ears so all is well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 @Chrissaf That's a lot of songs. I don't know 500 songs, never mind just over 4,000! 😆 GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triumph Owner Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Goodness knows how many CDs I have. My tastes are eclectic. I sing Gilbert and Sullivan, but rarely listen to it unless I am learning a part. I listen to Rock, heavy Rock, and Folk Rock mainly, with the odd bit of Prog thrown in.

Chrissaf Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 This is the nearest I can get to liking Gilbert and Sullivan (opera not being to my taste.....) 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 @walkingthedog How long did take you to go through all of your CD's Brian and count how many songs you listen to? GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissaf Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Jacob,How long did take you to go through all of your CD's Brian and count how many songs you listen to?.Probably about 20 seconds. The time it takes to turn on his 'Brennan B2' and press a couple of buttons..WTD has already said he has loaded his CD collection onto a Brennan B2. This box will tell you how many songs are loaded on it. In the same way that I can be precise in saying that I have got 4,018 songs in my MP3 collection..Google "Brennan B2" if you have "never heard of it" which is usually your stock answer to everything..... 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Persactly Chris. 😉 You said you have 4018 tracks in your glove box. Do you find they get jumbled up when you go round a corner too fast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
