How did I miss this?


I think I have my anthem.

But how, honestly, had I not come across this before? I love it! And it isn't even new.



Did I mention I love it?

I love it!

OMG! Download it free, at Bandcamp - HERE.

An anthem for the insurgency perhaps? Shame they picked a Valentine for the artwork.

For those not familiar with the original track this was based on, here it is:

  1. That's gold! It's got all bases covered... even the cheeky photocopy detail.

Omar bin Musa once houseminded the Australian Typewriter Museum in my three-week absence in South Africa, and is known to have used typewriters. Small world ...

    1. YOu certainly have met some very interesting characters in your time, Robert! I actually know of Omar, but I've never met the guy personally. Great stuff!
