God your passive aggression is reaching Jimmy like levels.
I probably am a passive aggressive Inspector Bop, you may be right there.

I'm not sure I could live up to that Richard.

Trivia:
Alvin S (pictured above) is the father of d&b artist Adam F, who made the 90s UK charts with Circles.
Circles samples Bob James Westchester Lady. I'm not entirely antipathetic to d&b, but Circles is crap, and the original is a classic.
N.B. The above is from memory, and I can't be bothered to check it, so I may well have dreamt some/all of it.
I quite liked Circles, it was a good tune. I sometimes wonder if Alvin Stardust gets mistakingly attacked for being a pedophile?
I knew some hardcore d&b heads at the time, who introduced me to the tiny minority of the music that was decent, some of which I used for DJing purposes back in the 90s. Imo the good stuff makes Circles sound crap; sorry!
Also, you're a jazzer Oo? I suspect BJ is off your radar, but his 1st 4 albums are heavy. (There's a reason he's the 2nd or 3rd most sampled artist ever. Ever. JB is no. 1, and I think Clinton might beat BJ to 2nd place.)
It was like any type of new musical genre, you had talented artists, and those that just exploited it. Hip-hop was always my gate way drug, I think this is why I share your enjoyment of jazz fusion. And ball-clamps.
Stardust is married to Lisa Goddard who was once voted rear of the year. Foxy little posh bird as I remember.
I think you'd be surprised at how well followed it still is my friend is the photographer for a lot of DnB artists, and many of them were the ones that we started out listening to at the beginning in 93-94 But I think the bubble changed a few times, garage, breaks, crack-house? and of course dubstep. What's my point, oh yeah I know a photographer, that was my point.
Lisa Goddard, was a bit cheeky. I've been getting into a bit of Yé-Yé music at the moment, you can't beat vintage tail.

Hey Bob & Tom, remember there was a Spectre character over at modculture?? He sounds just like this fellow, even down to the same skull avatar... he was a ben sherman revival mod and not even remotely versed in Ivy.
Over at MC he insulted many, he was a solid troll... and one of the ones that brought the forum down... He spent his time giving insults and **questionable advise**, and then one day posted the first picture of himself with the most ill-fitting white 501s this side of the galaxy and a horrible non-matching coat + polo... obviously grand laughter and great ridicule followed and he then complained to Dave of abuse...which I found strange because he obviously seems to like the attention.

Christ you've got a good memory
The biggest Trolls on MC were the moderators, bar Hipshaker Dave, Rowly and Dave W the rest of them were more than capable of snide comments. As someone who has had the misfortune to meet them in real life I can tell you NONE of them would "push their luck" to your face. Of course the worlds biggest internet troll who spent his time on there wasn't a moderator, but used to be.
Speccy's seems alright to me, a bit brutal but brutal can be funny, for a bit.
Sorry gents. I have never posted on Modculture.
And the last time I wore a Ben Sherman shirt was the early seventies.
As for white 501's... please?
JUST what a master criminal would say !

Checkmate was hilarious one of the many people that were scribbled on to Sogg's death list.
Ah Czechmate. The man who HATED all things Ivy but loved his Arrow and Troy Guild shirts. What a yo yo.
