Tubular Bells! There's an album I've not listened to in a long, long while. Used to send me to sleep when I was a kid.

Here's the best rec you'll have all week:

Adam & James - The Joy of Sexy[/size]

It's finally finished! It's truly amazing. Following on from our previous two albums ('Sexy', and 'Sexier than Thou'), we've become even more professional in our songwriting, musicianship, and singing skills. It's immaculately presented though, really.

Containing such gems as "Beard Men", "Borrowsteal" and "I Don't Like Mum-days", this is a timeless classic which will never cease to have its victims entertained. Here's just a few things which have been said about our music:

"It's like a cross between Bob Dylan and Bob the Builder" - My friend Rach
"What the...? Oh my God, I think I soiled myself!" - Anon
"This is amazing! I want some more!" - icvotria of PF fame
"You guys are nobs!" - Our friend Al

It's only £5! Bargain! Anyone who's interested, please PM me, or add me to your MSN or something. If you feel weird about buying from someone you don't know, I'd be more than happy to set up a private auction on eBay for you.

Danger, Evo & Moonbear, I'm expecting you to buy one of these! I'll cry if you don't!

It's amaazing, honestly!
