Hey Judith and everyone! Thanks so much for caring!
Thanks for the link. What an unreadable site! Ugh!
I only contributed in the blog now and then under the popcat moniker, and
this all occurred when it had been weeks since I last posted anything, but
it seems that this PH kept threatening us everyday, and took the time to
spill his bad manners in many of the comment options of many of the music
posted there, not only in the post where his song was featured but virtually
everywhere. He was spamming our email address with threats constantly too.
It's really a shame that things have come out this way. Mr. Powepoplover
must be quite temperamental, because the decision of taking care of the blog
all by himself was something he just did out of the blue, and now I see he
says he will scrap all the blog. I hope he doesn't do that and keeps it as
an archive. On the other hand, some of the latest posts he published,
alleged out-of-print cds, were a mistake, IMHO.
At any rate, our love for finding obscure vinyl-only powerpop and treating
it nicely has not ended, and I guess something will resurface very soon. I
am in touch with Mr. Apollo and will keep you posted.
best!
