Well this has got a lot of you beat, hidden means hidden, on the 4 Cul de Sac posts, each link have been found only a couple of times. I could just add the link in the comments on these posts. But no what I'll do is say where the links are and on future posts you will have an idea where to look on the posts for the link. 6 people found the hidden link on the Cuddly Toys Post. But will add the location in the comments on this post as well.
They are not hidden on images or punctuation mark or letters, look at the gaps, between punctuation and letters and you will find them. Well the King Tubby one is as it happens. But all the rest are on gaps between words.
It's pointless for me to take the time to post just for a couple of downloads per post. But the funny thing is the King Tubby post has 22 downloads (so many have found the link), and I know if I had posted the link for this in the comments there would have been 50+ downloads, go figure!!
So I won't tell you where the link is on that post, look on the Cul de Sac posts once I disclose the where abouts of the links, it will give you an idea where to look in the future.
Sorry but for now the hidden links are going to stay!! Stops the grabbers. If they work at it they are welcome to the link.

Radioactivity’s second album, Silent Kill, (Dirtnap Records) is brilliant, and it’s painfully obvious in an earth-shattering, orgasmic-like way 50 seconds into the first track,“Battered.”
The quartet is comprised of veteran frontman and chief songwriter Jeff Burke (The Marked Men, The Reds, The Potential Johns) backed by Marked Men buddy Mark Ryan and two-thirds of another Dirtnap favorite, Bad Sports (Daniel Fried and Gregory Rutherford).
For your listening pleasure, here is my latest mix, number 203, with all new and newly re-released indie gems that have been coming out this past month. We have 55 tracks this time around by these artists: Sennen, Real Numbers, Wandering Summer, Glitter On The Mattress, Ratboys, Terry Malts, Protomartyr, Slow Fiction, Prisms, Kind Kid, Rosetta Stone, Boy Harsher, Dummy, GIFT, The Boo Radleys, Pye Corner Audio feat.

Just checked the site email and this was there waiting for me from Friend of Vibes Moezeke. Which the link will be in the comments as it will be with all submissions to Vibes. Many thanks once again to Moezeke for sharing more of his collection here on Vibes.
Well on my last 3 posts, King Tubby and the two albums by Cul de Sac, the link isn't in the comments.
The download link is hidden on the posts, so you will need to look for it. many blogs were like this back in the day.
Well it makes it more entertaining to try and discover the link, I did say I was going to experiment with how I made my posts, in the future. I tried asking you to request the link, I was looking for 10 requests as a minimum and received 6, I shared the link for this post yesterday, Gaudi, and it's been downloaded 24 times, 4 times the requests for it.
The other option is I password protect each post, with a unique password, which is more work, so I thought ok put the link hidden on the posts, and you can look for it.
The Home made Comp's will still have the link in the comments, but from now on all links for albums on my posts will be hidden somewhere on the post, you just have to look.
The link for the King Tubby post is interesting to say the least 6 views and 12 downloads, so someone out there is sharing my links some where or emailing them to others. If this trend continues then not only will the link be hidden but passwords protection will be added to all my posts. Or I turn it private or walk away and close Vibes down.

On my posts, if you comment, then you do, if you don't then you don't, but please take the time to comment on posts made by Andy, Cosmas, Concha and Lorcan, cheers. Re comments we reserve the right to only post whatever comments we choose. If you don't have or want a google account, you can email the site address is on the main page.
How I post these and what happens how I post the link, and if it will be password protected, or you need to request a link, is still undecided, need a bit more time to think about it.
I tried a post where you had to request a copy, And received 6 requests, which is disappointing considering my post get between 40 & 50 downloads. Well posted the link on that post today and in a few hours already 5 downloads. I am sure will be close to 20 by the end of today. I guess whatever I do the takers will take. Don't really know the answer.
Vibes will continue, other members will post as they normally do.
If I do decide to post anything in Flac (which at this time is doubtful), then they will either be posted and you will need to request a copy or request the password.
I think I will return to links with a shorter live span and maybe limit the number of downloads. I know some only visit here once a week, but if you have commented here on a regular basis and the links are dead then just email me and I'll send you a link.

The stage is set for Marina & the Kats! With their new album "Swingsalabim," they captivate us once again and venture into entirely new territory. Enveloped in the charm of nostalgia, the new songs dance right on the pulse of the times. Ringmaster Marina keeps her Kats firmly in her grasp with her uniquely fresh yet touching voice, constantly conjuring up new ideas from her hat
Her traveling circus has pitched its tents in countless places over the past two years. She knows what it's like to be "on the road," always keeping a small velvet-covered notebook in her red tailcoat, in which she writes little fables illustrated with large pictures. Fables of mice and elephants, endless roads, nights spent drinking, fantastical nightclubs among the stars, and life as a courted princess of the variety show.
But it's also about how to assert oneself as a director in a male-dominated world, how to stand one's ground when one is in charge. She also strikes more contemplative notes, slipping into the costume of a melancholy clown when she sings of the impending loss of a loved one. Emancipated from mere retro sounds, a completely new style emerges from her love for the spirit of burgeoning modernity, a style that is more than just a reference to bygone days. Independent, unmistakable. Sparkling, enchanting, right to the heart.
What was already hinted at on their two excellent albums, "Small" and "Wild," continues seamlessly on "Swingsalabim." The trio effortlessly combines light-footed, catchy rhythms with crisp songwriting and a distinct dose of fun. Marina & The Kats have long since found their identity. On their third album, they break free from sonic clichés and prejudices. The "smallest big band in the world" creates a vintage and retro sound reminiscent of bygone days without being overly confined to the aesthetics of that era. They skillfully keep an eye on current events, both musically and thematically, and blend diverse periods.
Marina and her band impress more than ever with new soundscapes and surprising twists. Alongside the classic, catchy swing elements in songs like "Get On With It" and "1000 Miles Ahead," the band ventures into new territory without losing their timelessly driving vintage sound. The bluesy "I Should Have Known Better" proves to be a powerful reflection on an eventful evening, "No No No" flirts with Balkan melodies, "Say What?" demonstrates that womanhood is free from clichés and patriarchal thinking, and "Wherever You May Go" reveals itself as a gentle declaration of love with graceful fragility.
Marina is always in charge and tells open and honest stories that have happened to all of us. Laughter, shouting, singing along, and even tears are expressly encouraged! Anyone who listens to her snare and cymbal sounds will inevitably start dancing. Thomas Mauerhofer and Peter Schönbauer support her on stringed instruments, creating a distinctive sound that goes far beyond mere swing. Marina & The Kats are a welcome respite from the often harsh realities of our time. With "Swingsalabim," they conjure up a good time and prove themselves masters of creating unique cascades of sound. The perfect soundtrack for parties with style and verve.(Jazz-Fun translated from German)
