    For Spectrum Lovers

    I was searching on the new for some Rock'n'Roll years videos, the famous BBC series from years ago.

    Anyway, I found these which had the same idea of the show but instead of news stories, they feature Spectrum games from that particular year with music from that year. Check them out for soem great memories of the games and the music

    The Your Sinclair Rock'n'Roll Years - 1982


    The Your Sinclair Rock'n'Roll Years - 1983


    Your Sinclair - The Rock N Roll Years 1985


    There are a few more out there but these are just a small sample. Please feel free to post up some more

    I have no idea what you're talking about.

    Although a bit of 80's nostalgia, especially in gaming is always good to see.

    Wow, that brings back memories! Ah, the good old Speccy. Rubber keys that broke, the long loading times, crashes etc. Not forgetting having a epileptic seizure while watching the screen as the game was loading. Preferred the Commodore 64 myself, as it had more than two colours, lol.

    Hi China-Rising,

    Did you manage to find any of the rock and roll years? I have been trying to find them for a while.

    Yeah reading this thread had bought back some good & bad memories. I used to spend many an hour playing the like of Manic Miner & Jet Set Willy on my 48K spectrum! On the downside I also spent many hours trying to load games only to get a loading error 15 minutes in!

    Oh & if I remember correctly the spectrum had seven colours!

    Yeah, I played that quite a bit. I remember (I think) being sick in the fridge, p*ssing in a plant and throwing a condom at someone at a party!

    Didn't complete it though, I think you had to do quite a high number of Bastardish things!
    Sounds of the DJ Vinyl!
