For those who don't know - I've been writing a blog every week day (give or take days off/holidays etc.) since May 30, 2006, covering every single Fall song known to man (well - me) : The Story Of The Fall

Anyhoo, it's been a blast, but I've reached the end now after 429 entries. Obviously, I'm bound to have missed/forgotten something, so if any of youse lot know of any I've missed (there's a search facility on the site), then geez a shout.

Aw ra best

Bloody hell Bob, that's some undertaking for sure applaud.gif

I haven't got time for a full and proper look now, but have you included unreleased songs like Race Hatred, Surrogate Mirage, Crackhouse and the like?

Bravo anyhow.

Just dipped in there for a few random years. Looks great. I'll be dipping in plenty more as I think of other tracks that I'd like to hear your take on.

Congrats! applaud.gif

and straightaway you nail 3 songs that aren't there! I knew I could rely on this forum to do that. Good work. I don't have them. Do you?

Sorry, i wasn't trying to clever. They were just off the top of my head.

I have the 2 versions of Crackhouse, and the sole Surrogate Mirage, from Leicester Poly 82.

Will email them to you for your site if you want.

Pretty sure that Race Hatred isn't even in the trading pot.

Surplus, that's even cleverer than it seemed. I'd never even heard of two of those.

Rotund - this is a fine undertaking. You have your own copy of it, don't you (rather than just on the site)? Just in case.

It is a damn good thing, though

I'm really going to enjoy trawling through this later. It looks like a superb piece of work. thumbsup.gif

One possible missing winner %5E-%5E.gif ; an initial search couldn't find Perverted By Langauge (the song) - on second thoughts, probably not worth the bother. sick.gif

Nonetheless, very well done sir, and three cheers! applaud.gif applaud.gif applaud.gif

Congratulations, and well done.
Must be a fantastic sense of achievement you're feeling right now.

Good work, a nice site.
It says sound samples are up for a month, so maybe we can get a listen to those rare tracks soon.

Anyway, this is a great labour of love. Well done Rotund.

The live gig version links are great as well btw.

cheers everybody. I realise now that, due to me being a tightarse and not forking out for the last box set, I'm short of 'Perverted By Language' (the song, not the album), 'Countdown' , 'Tunnel', 'Interferance' 'Jet Boy' and 'The Boss'. Oh, and I still can't get a hold of 'Rude' (All the Time). I'll put up 'Crackhouse' and 'Surrogate Mirage' asap now I've got them (thanks again Surplus Johnny).

The Moderatorzzzzs really should add this as a link. Get hold of them- this deserves to be noted.

Good stuff. Just read 1990 as Extricate is among my favourite albums smile.gif

I like the live guide...interesting there's a mixer recording of Basingstoke 1994, and that there were *some* highlights.

I was there. It was a quarter full, no wonder MES was angry. ohmy.gif

I think what you've done is great. The only suggestion I'd make is to perhaps add the first played live date and the last played live date of each song. The old lyric thing had this on and I thought it was pretty cool.
But well done, it must've taken ages.
