GOOD TIMES
HAS TO BE THE MOST ANNYING ACID TRACK EVER!!!!!!!!!!
Goodtimes wasnt much to shout about, though the newest remix's are very good, all 3 mixes are pretty nifty!
I dunno, I kinda liked the original Good Times track, and lots of people on the dance floor agree :)
But the acid line on that track is still a wicked one thoughQuote:

Except Sir'Chin, cause I can't fit that into any set no matter how hard I try.
eh? i think "acid culture" is great. the flip, however, isn't my cuppa.Quote:

nice one
i think that acid cluture tune just the track without the samoke woukld great.
what annoys me about the track is rgar theres Cockney accent hoing , acid cykture , techno cyktyre, being from up north , cockney accents seem a bit unnecessay
thats because theyre all from dawn saaaaaaaaarth in it, numpty :doh: :lol: :lol:Quote:

The batman tune on COSHH "to the Batrave" ?? was an absolute travesty. Makes me cringe every time.
However, as someone said earlier, often people start to kick off when a novelty tune comes on. :roll:
batrave
bad day at black frog creek
almost any track on c.o.s.h.h except a few early ones (plodbusta comes to mind)
green for go on stay up forever
I really like 'funky old cortina' myself - like any 'novelty' tune though it's great the first time you hear it but it does just get annoying if it gets rinsed. When I first heard it I was off my box at the Arches and Chris Lib played it in the middle of a blinding set which sold it pretty well.
Acid culture is up there for sure, definitely not SUF's finest hour...
I wasn't a big fan of the original Bad Day at Black Frog Creek, but the remix was definitely a little better... However I do love all the other records you listed, especially all the COSHH records and Green for Go, I love that funky acid line :)Quote:

I'm trying to imagine the same tune with a northern accent, and struggling not to laugh ;) A Maggie Thatcher style voice would've been good I reckon, kind of like a rehash of Maggie's Last Party.Quote:

I love these choons . I think its a matter of what like and what dont like .I would hardly called it a pile of shite . For me i go off suf sometimes and go for the newer =school acid techno..but then i might go off acid techno....and go to hard techno ... what ever mood im inQuote:
