Excerpts from A Very Spectrum Christmas (Part 5), by Thomas A. Christie. In this section: "The Miser" by River Software (1990). Throughout the 1980s, thousands of British children were lucky enough to discover a Sinclair ZX Spectrum under their Christmas trees and soon found their eyes opened to a virtual world of wonder. But Santa Claus did more than deliver computers — sometimes he appeared on them, too. This book delves into the Spectrum’s extraordinary pantheon of seasonal games: the good, the bad, the surprising, the unabashedly surreal and the occasionally rather tenuous. "A Very Spectrum Christmas" is Copyright ©2021 Thomas A. Christie, all rights reserved, and is published by Extremis Publishing Ltd. This title is available as a physical book from www.extremispublishing.com and all good online retailers and independent booksellers worldwide.

Soul Traders Drum - The Day of the Rabblement
Fantastic original folk/country acoustic style song called Soul Traders Drum by The Day of the Rabblement. Recorded live at the Wine Vaults, Southsea and it features on their debut album 'Night Time Rallies'.The Day of the Rabblement used to create amazing folk and acoustic style music including this song but this particular song has a country feel to it as well! The different types of guitars and the lead female vocals by Khaleda make this song really interesting and definitely very folksy!Khaleda Brophy-Harmer- lead vocals and guitarDanny Harmer- accordion and vocalsMac Brown- lead guitar and vocalsSean Brophy- bass guitar and vocalsRob Purkiss- drums and vocals
