Hi Peter, Golden Shrine is from Chameleon... If ever you need to know which album a track is from, check out the A-Z Song List on Dreamsville, click on a title and it will magically transport you to where the song was originally released... https://www.billnelson.com/a-z-song-list As for the others... The first track is Endless Summer from Electra. The second is To A Child from Chameleon. The third track is the same as the first track!!!

Anybody can lay down their opinions on posts…you layed down your opinion, as have others, and I gave you my opinion, which is exactly what this forum is for. Without people airing their opinions, these posts would be pretty empty. These kind of debates are exactly what we need! As long as things don’t turn offensive. 👍🏻

There has been lots of requests that Bill releases his CDs in digi-sleeve format, even though jewel cases are simpler and cheaper to design and produce... A 4-page booklet IS a piece of folded paper, how can you make 4 pages any other way? As for the 'Lots of imagery for no apparent reason' - All of Bill's recent CDs have lots of imagery...should he leave those pages blank? What would you have instead of imagery? Sorry to hear you don't like it... 😥

Thanks for the kind words Andrew… I have fond memories of spending many hours going through the Noise Candy collection, playing certain lines over and over and over trying to pick out the correct lyrics. I got to know all those tracks very intimately. I still had to buy my own copy when it came out though!!! 🤣 Lenin imports didn’t deem my hours of effort worthy of a free copy!

There’s always ‘Studio Cadet’ for Xmas presents! Plus lots of goodies (t-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, tote bags, mugs, posters) from Bill’s official merchandise site ‘Direct’. The Quit Dreaming box set will be something to look forward to in the new year!

It is still certainly the intention to release My Private Cosmos as individual albums on Bandcamp (one per month), the difficulty lies in prioritising releases, the albums that are currently getting the Bandcamp treatment are ones that are no longer available, or the brand new releases. Hopefully sometime next year MPC will get its digital release. 🤞🏻

Yes, Studio Cadet will be a physical CD from Burning Shed, but also available as a digital download from Bandcamp.

Absolutely…it still gets regular plays round here, a firm favourite.

No merch at the event, but the organisers like a drink, so you can still bring lots of extra cash!!! 😬

Bill is currently making an album available every month on Bandcamp. The ‘Trial By Intimacy’ set of albums are the latest batch, and the fourth disc, ‘A Catalogue Of Obsessions’ will be put out on Bandcamp next month.

'The Invisible Girls' were the band that provided the music for John Cooper Clarke's album 'Disguise In Love'. Bill played guitar on (I think) three songs, 'I Don't Want To Be Nice', 'Readers Wives' and 'Health Fanatic'.

What a great image!!! 👍🏻

The event has now SOLD OUT! Which is fantastic news…who knows, if it proves to be a successful and enjoyable evening, we may look into doing it again sometime?!?

At the bottom of every page on Dreamsville Andy. 😜

It was mentioned in the last monthly Dreamsville newsletter. 😬

I agree with Tourist, this is a fantastic album, one of my favourites and much overlooked. It was never released as a physical CD, only officially available from Bill’s Bandcamp page.

Not quite sure what you mean AlanH about 'why don't we have something like that on this site?' There is a page dedicated to links which will take you to interviews and features with Bill - www.billnelson.com/magazine-features As for the sleepiness of the forum - I couldn't agree more, we just need more people to post/contribute to interesting topics...but we can't force people to join in.

‘Decimal Point For The Thousand Races’ is my favourite track off the album, a groove that gets buried deep in the brain and thankfully stays there for ages!
