I've only listened to the first 2 songs, but wow!! I can't get over how better Black Country is live compared to the Studio version which is no mean feat.

It's just a plain old audio file, so should play just like any other. Perhaps the file extension is incorrect so your media player doesn't recognize it? Can you play similar files? If so, not sure what to tell you... perhaps reinstall the media player? Good luck!

if after downloading its got .m3u as the final extension (bcc_pr_livedebut_092010.mp3.m3u) then rename it and remove the m3u from the end so its just ".mp3"

if that doesnt work then you have a problem with your media player

My colleague at GRTR Mark Taylor got to see the show. His review and mine of Manchester Academy is at the top of the shop at:-

hi Folks

Indeed, have not been here for a while.

Besides Glenn I have many other passions and priorities to deal with, so....

A bit strange that I have to produce a certain amount of posts to get into the mp 3 file of the BCC gig

I do endorse Glenn a LOT on THS.
Does that minimize the things I have to do?

Btw, I ve been told that it should be possible to use a external USB thing or something to RECORD radio Internet shows on a disc.

I m not very technical. Bewildered that it has to cause so much trouble TODAY regarding the fact that we were ALL able to record anything in the old days on tape!!!!

Cheers, Mark, Rotterdam
