At long last, here it is: an *amazing* effort I contributed to, a *double-length* version of "The Wall", which reinstates songs and music back into the mix, greatly expanding the world and v=its vision. It includes a 180-page book with extensive notes and art on the album. Please download, circulate, and ENJOY - and I'd love to her any feedback too.
On the live release of the Wall Tour, "Is There Anybody Out There?", the version of "Another Brick In The Wall Part 2" was mixed together out of 4 different Earl's Court shows - 3 from 1980 and one from 1981.
During the two tours, the second guitar solo, before Rick's organ solo, was performed by Snowy White in 1980, and Andy Roberts in 1981. Can anyone please tell me which one these guys is playing that solo after Gilmour's in that live album??
Here is Part Two - now see if I forgot about your favorite weirdo!! 😂
I don't claim to have the largest Simpsons collection - but I'm pretty sure I have the collection of the most figures of distinct Simpsons characters in the world. I love and in awe of the show, to this season, and have been a fan since the Ullman days. (There's lot of recent recurring characters in here too.)
All comments, questions & suggestions are welcome - just ask if you'd like close up of any of these.

I recently looked at some beautiful figure collections in this group, and noticed a few included some excellent custom figure creations. So I thought that some other real Simpsons freaks would enjoy checking out mine: It's the entire World of Springfield collection (2000-04), the 2015 NECA line, the new Jakks Pacific line, and a few other figures scaled at 1:12 (like some Burger King and Greetings From Springfield figures).
THEN... I added 312 or so custom characters that I've made myself. I made 82 of them back while WOS was being produced, and then eventually put away the hobby & stored all the figures. But I lost the storage and had the empty time during COVID, and started up the hobby again. Now I have over 312 customs, pretty much every recurring character covered, and I still have a fairly long To-Do list! All in all, there are almost 600 figures in here, containing 515 individual characters. (Some characters have variants - there are like 40 different Homers in here!) Almost all of mine are articulated & pose-able, though the more "NPC" they are, the more they may be joint-less.
If anyone can manage to name all the characters, I'll think of a great prize. If you don't see your favorite obscure cast member here, first check Part Two before calling me out! All comments & questions are welcome, and if anyone wants close-ups on any of them, just ask.
I’ve been posting these to IG as springfieldxpanded - would love to have more visitors! - but I’ll update here too FNO.
