Last I heard he was preparing to sell off his collection... but that was quite a while ago.

James still pops in here every now and then. I haven't seen a post... but he sneaks in to read the posts every now and then.

I got a call from him a few months ago I think but missed the call and when I called back I didn't get an answer. I think it was in the last few months but then again it might have been much longer than that. I hope he's okay.

I still call or get called by James every week and although the economy and such was very unkind to him, the man has had a really tough go the past few years, he is getting his feet back under him (he actually has 2 fairly decent jobs currently) and is bouncing back.

 

James did, unfortunately, sell his collection and believe me he still talks about cd's and what he had, but he just couldn't keep it.

 

James is a great guy and I'm quite happy to call him friend and wish him the best always!

 

Take a minute and PM him as Dave said, he does pop in from time to time...

Had an awesome chat with him on the phone tonight. Just like old times. Still loves to talk music and CDs, even though he assured me his collecting days are over. :(

 

Remains a Hall of Fame CD collector, as far as I'm concerned.

Well, what was left for him to collect, anyway?

Pretty sure he owned about 5-10% of my collection before he stopped collecting. Takes ALOT to come up with a package with a $10+ media mail postage stamp on it! ha!

 

Yeah - good guy. He called me a couple of months ago and sounded like things were starting to turn around. That was the first 30 seconds of the conversation. The next half hour was all about the metal.

I got a call from him a few weeks ago. True, the economy was not good to James, but he seems to be turning his life around. He has(or had) sold most of his collection. He still knows his shit on Indie Hard Rock titles.

He is the King, when it comes to collecting... :respect:

      Babymetal

      By Captain Howdy · Posted

      I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here

      Really dig this. Better than the debut and that says something IMO.
