The Undertones: The Story Of The Undertones (2003)


I should of posted this one a couple of weeks ago really as a tribute to the late great Mr John Peel who unsurprisingly presents this great documentary which was made in 2001. Of course due to my bloody computer it was not possible but now,again after several failed attempts,it is. If you like The Undertones and you've never seen it,you will love it I'm sure.


66 minutes long at 630mb and not included is the bonus material but you can buy the DVD very cheaply if you Google it (I should take my own advice really!)


Use my favourite tool HJ-Split to join the files together http://www.freebyte.com/hjsplit/#win32


Everyone knows Teenage Kicks was John Peel's favourite song and just like everyone I ever knew, John Peel was everyone's favourite D.J.


R.I.P. Peely. A true legend.

Hi Longy! I closed my blog. As always happens...almost none had enough time to say thanks while they were downloading the files, that implies the dead of the blog. Maybe I'll open another blog next year. However, I will stay in tune with you and other blogger friends from now on.

Cheers

Thanks Longy........mr. John Peel introduced me with the punk thing on his radio. I thought it was BFBS radio.

Always excited which tune he would play.

This is a great docu...

I'm really sad to hear that englishfog. I hope you reconsider but if not then I can't really blame you. Good luck mate whatever you do and yes,keep in touch.

Cheers topper. I loved the John Peel show back in the day. 10pm til 12pm with one of those single earplugs in the radio,under the bed away from my parents eyes,discovering whats new on the nightly basis.

Nice one, everyones got to have some Undertones.

Hey English Frog, I echo Longys comments, shame to see you stop, but as a fellow blogger we all know what it feels like. Good luck mate and keep on commenting.

Diablo Rules said...

Thanks Longy and Gary. I appreciate your support. I hope to return with a new blog next year. I want to go in the same line as both of you, vinyl and tape rips, rarities, singles etc. Honestly, I couldn't sleep thinking in the damage that I made posting many available albums...I did it with the hope of gain more comments but I failed. Is not that I want many comments but come on, many links were downloaded hundred of times and nobody left a single comment...I felt like a bunny ripped by vultures!

Anyway, I'll keep an eye on your blogs and in the meantime I'll prepare some stuff for the next year.

Cheers

Great stuff. Thanks! Was sorry to see that english fog has packed it in. I'd been away for a while. I just found his most recent blog last week (through you) and now it's no more. I wanted to send him The Bollock Brothers "Left Ear of Vangh Gogh" and "Rock N' Roll" (I'd requested it from an old blog of his a year or so ago and I've finally got round to getting an ION, so wanted to give some pay back.)

Diablo Rules said...

That's pretty nice of you alantru. I'll back next year mate, on the same blog Crawling Mantra, I just made it private to update it and to take a breath. I'm having a lot of work (as usual when the year is about to end) and I can't attend the blog at the moment. Hope to see you next year and would be nice "Left Ear Of Vangh Gogh" don't have that one!

Cheers
