HBD! 🎂 The soundtrack for Spyro the Dragon on the Playstation One, 1998.
On this day, 25 years ago, I was attending my shop in the centre of Amsterdam. Sad news spread through the city at rapid pace. Our favourite Rock & Roll Junkie had taken the final leap to the big eternal stage in the sky. Fate had our paths crossed multiple times. Sorely missed. #HermanBrood
Ha, cool! I found the album only last year. Pretty rare in my neck of the woods. 😉
A working MGA's Miniverse recordplayer that plays a 30-second clip of a song from the album you place on it. Great stuff! 😁👍 #MGAminiverse #Vinyl #DefLeppard #RockOfAges #Pyromania

Taking a break to contemplate life and to plan the next adventure. Happy memories don’t magical make themselves you know. Or do they? 🤔 On second thought, contemplating life sounds like work. So I’ll be skipping that. Miss me, see you on the flipside! 👋 #Slangenburg #SnakeCastle
Thanks for the tip! I'm putting it on my 'things to watch on Netflix in the weekend' list! 👍
Kim Wilde. 👍😉 She has some great stories and likes to tell them with a passion!
Tavares It's a shame my carefully curated scrapbook 'got misplaced' during the first time we moved house in the 70s.

Aaah, you know! 🫵😉 And I'm prepared: it's on my phone, on a CD and USB stick in my car, multiple copies at my house and I always take it with me across every border and ocean I cross. Just in case.

#EcksteinsMonthOfMusic #MusicChallenge May 2026 Day 01: The first artist you had a crush on. My pre-teen room was plastered with posters from the band this young lady was an essential part of. I remember being quite enamored with her voice, demeanor and presence. #PuppyLove
