Hey guys, this is me, I've been mentoring Karl since the early 80's (Screen Gems days)

Underworld are brilliant, special mention to the girls who talked to us at Birmingham carling achademy last year when we took our kids aged 15, 13 and 8 to see Underworld, they loved it.

Hi Wiggie, welcome to the forums! I moved your post to the main Underworld forum, since Moments is for the discussion of live shows.

I don't know if R+K read the forums directly, but they do sometimes respond directly to our threads with a diary post, so if they don't read the forums, at a minimum they are being kept abreast of what's being discussed in them.

Got any good stories to share? :)

Loads, but I'm sworn to secrecy. My favourite Underworld album is Dubnobass, IMO a classic anyone agree?

secrecy, schmecrecy!

your question splits the voters - dubnos, stiti and fish probably have equal representation, a lot depending on which one was a person's entry album...

i'm more a second toughest-leaner - bouncy bouncy...

Hey i love them all, even i'm a hoover, but dubno really presents as perfection to me, as someone said on another thread, they don't make em like that anymore.

Cack is a bit strong:) I think they are all good, including B/fish. Without Dubno, there would not have been the transgression to STITI and BF surely?

I thought that 100DO did not miss DE at all, by now the signature was ingrained in the music, only IMO though, I can see all sides, I know what these forums are like (I am a Moderator in a different life) so I don't wish to start anything, just thought I'd pay a visit seeing I made an appearance in my Spoof Wiggie persona.

can someone start the bring 'emerson back' campaign...

and DUBNO is the best album, and falls just behind New Order's technique in greatest albums of all time, and i should know - i'm in still the oracle on this...

oracle shmoracle, It's a matter of opinion, even if you are the main man, we all have our own ideas, and they can alter retrospectively.:)

I do believe Karl actually made a diary post about that guitar while back... I know there are a couple of posts about various guitars Karl uses in the archives anyway.
