Hi

Would you believe me if I told you that the reason this page hasn't been updated in, oh, half a year is because I forgot my Blogger password?

It's actually true, you know... I've tried logging in several times over the past few months but I lost my key to my own blog and I eventually had to reset my Google password, which was no easy feat! But here I am... Feels a bit weird though; it's been like forever, hasn't it?

Anyway, I appreciate all the emails expressing curiosity, concern and even anger at my absence. I've been a bit busy so I haven't been able to reply all of them, but for those of you who didn't know, I've been in Nigeria for a while now doing some of this




And this





And a whole bunch of other stuff I'll tell you about later... Hopefully things will get pretty interesting around With Comb & Razorville in the next few months. Look for the blog to reactivate sometime in March; I need to get my act together a bit.

In the meantime, give me a shout in the comments if you care to... I miss interacting with you all!

(er... That's if my readership has not altogether evaporated by now...)

    Are you kidding? We all have RSS feeds these days, you can go dormant for, oh, months, maybe even years, and your readership will still be there, eager as ever.

    Welcome back and thank you so very much for all that wonderful musisc we would never have found on our own.

  39. For old school folks like me who don't do RSS, it's been a manual process of checking for updates.

    Welcome back my guy. I congratulate folks that still go back to Naija, esp the east. That ain't for me anymore. Don't mean to bring up non-music stuff.

  59. Isn't that Pa Johnson in the new logo?

  60. That's what it was called - Fun Times! I remember seeing a few issues around in Freetown circa 1985, before the Wale Adenuga stuff flooded the market (Ikebe Super and Super Story), and of course Lolly with Dauda (aka 'Nackson') and Lewis The Traveller - a right pair of pervs! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  61. Aw damn... Yeah! I've been trying to get a hold of those old comics for years! That was when Adenuga was subversive and witty, as opposed to the bland "family values" mess he's putting out these days.

    I do have some scraps of some latter-era Ikebe Super, but I really need to find some Super Story and especially Lolly!

    ReplyDelete
  62. Glad to know you are back; that image at the top takes me back years brother! Ikebe super, lolly, ben bella...
    and is that the bala miller show....
    dude...gonna send you some fine ladies...you just wait...
