Great site….very informative Thanks…
What’s goin’ on with the downloads???
It takes hours to download a song.
A problem with my hosting provider, you can read about it here: http://djrichiep.com/blog-performance-2/
hi mr FWV,
Are these ‘problems’ related to d-l’s in the US ?
Mine took just a few minutes.
Anywho, I remember this 12” and the girl in the Dj Shop saying ‘It was selling Coz of the B-side’ – A ballad in some parts of the world.
don’t think the problem is US only, have had reports from other countries as well, I wish GoDaddy would get this figured out, and soon
Steady and fast download here in Belgium.
Thanks again, Richie, great memories this song!

Thanks for the report my friend, enjoy the record! This whole thing really has me scratching my head, some parts of the world, no problems… That doesn’t point to server latency in my limited knowledge. Sounds like somewhere/something in the routing is bottling things up, heck it may not even be GoDaddy’s issue…?
Well I’m in the US and my dl was pretty quick about a lil over a minute
Thanks mz, do you mind me asking what state you are in? Seems that most of the US issues I have heard about were on the west coast…
I have created a poll so people can identify where they are and whether the downloads are working for them, please go there and respond, if I get enough data, I will provide this to GoDaddy, maybe it will help them narrow down what is going on?

Love this track. And I’m always up for a dub version so looking forward to that. Thanks!
you’re welcome Burns, enjoy
I’m not in the US, and DL is about 6 minutes for this.
I’ve got this UK 12” so it’s great to have your FWV rip, Richie!
Thanks!
I love her Suddenly It’s Magic and Congratulations singles too.
All these Soulful Divas…Vesta, Phyllis….gone too soon!
6 minutes is a tad slow but, some folks are seeing download times of hours so, you’re not in bad shape for sure! enjoy the record Ric
Oh no, I’ll take my 6 minutes…I’ve known of DLs that takes hours…so I’m thankful for what I get.
Vesta so strong, so sweet ;*
Thank you!
You’re welcome opoder
