It's amazing how old the songs are. Writing To Reach You, The Fear, As You Are, Turn, She's So Strange all written before Good Feeling came out. Maybe a couple of others too. :) The songs are nearer 15 years old (some of them).
And Safe (but that's off TIB). Once again, well done Ben. :) Ah such a special record. |

10 years... I was only 6 when the album came out, the years when I used to sing "Barbie Girl" or "Wannabe", I would wish to have had a copy of TMW then LoL
So... Happy Birthday The Man Who!!
And thanks very much, Ben! :) |

And Flowers In The Window too, i think. Well... maybe not before Good Feeling but certainly before The Man Who. :) I wonder if Travis have any songs from the old days (Invisible Band, 12 Memories eras) they've still not released? We know "Lock Me Up" exists. :) |

One of the best albums of all time, Travis' crowning moment. It has aged very well.
Come to think of it, it's my favourite album of the 90s, and there is some stiff competition.
What an album. WTRY, Driftwood, Laugh, Turn, Rain, SSS - all timeless classics. |

By the way, Ben!! Just a question. :) I recognised that the file name is '2 The Man Who(Live)'... Are there some more like this? I mean.. something like a best live collection. I hope there are '1 Good Feeling', '3 The Invisible Man' and etc..! ;)
Thank you very much anyway. This is great! :) |

I was gonna mention FITW but wasn't sure. As for other songs from the old days, I know that Doctor song must be around somewhere but I doubt it will surface. I'd also love to hear the rap version, or just see the lyrics, of Walking Down the Hill. |

I made 6 folders for the 6 albums. :) I would love to be able to do it for the other albums but unfortunately The Man Who and Ode To J Smith are the only albums that the band have played the whole of live. And i don't have some of the Ode songs in very good quality. I have every song from The Invisible Band except Afterglow. I can still put it together though (without Afterglow), if you think it'll still be worthwhile. :)

Doctor song? I don't know what that is... or maybe i do. It rings a bell, i just can't quite remember. Wow, i never knew Walking Down the Hill had a rap version! Haha. Fran did say Side began as a rap... i think. lol There was a song called 7 Candles. But The Ballad Of J Smith has the "7 candles" in the lyrics. That could be the same song. There were a couple of others too mentioned that i can't remember the names of. |
