3CD - UK Import 

 A four-hour, 3CD anthology of the late 60s British pop scene during the early years of Radio 1.

• Big hits and intriguing misses from some of the biggest acts and most prominent writing/ production teams of the era.

In 1967, British pop radio underwent a seismic change when the pirate stations that had ruled the airwaves over the previous couple of years were declared illegal by an Act of Parliament and replaced by a national station controlled by publicly-funded broadcaster the BBC.

The arrival of Radio 1 saw the British pop scene remade in the station's own image, with a new wave of songwriting and production teams competing to create bright, brassy, relentlessly upbeat tracks that would be embraced by Radio 1's all-important playlist.

While The Love Affair, The Herd, The Tremeloes and The Foundations were among the groups who made the headlines, the key figures were really the backroom auteurs: names like Tony Macaulay, Howard Blaikley and arranger Keith Mansfield were all integral to the new, homogenised pop radio sound.

‘All Things Bright And Beautiful: The UK Pop Explosion’ is a 3CD, four-hour celebration of this pivotal period in British pop history, with a huge number of key hits – including several featured in the opening hour of Radio 1's first broadcast – joined by more minor successes and some 45s that received considerable airplay but nevertheless failed to make the grade.

Housed in Grapefruit's standard clamshell box packaging with a 48-page booklet and track- by-track annotation, it's another essential purchase for any late 60s pop aficionado.

Sleek Design, Smooth Writing, and a Fun Tool for Artists and Everyday Use
The Apple Pencil (USB-C) is a streamlined and affordable option for users who want Apple’s signature precision without the premium price of higher-end models. Designed primarily for note-taking, sketching, and everyday creative tasks, it delivers the smooth, low-latency performance Apple Pencil is known for. Writing feels natural, with accurate pressure response and excellent palm rejection when used with supported iPads. This version connects and charges via USB-C, making it convenient for users who prefer a simple wired setup and already rely on USB-C accessories. It’s lightweight, comfortable to hold, and magnetically attaches to compatible iPads for storage, though it does not support wireless charging or pairing. While it lacks advanced features like pressure sensitivity for artistic shading or double-tap gesture controls found in Apple Pencil (2nd generation), it still performs exceptionally well for students, professionals, and casual users. However, a device compatibility check is essential before making a purchase. The Apple Pencil (USB-C) works only with select iPad models, and it does not support older Lightning-based iPads. Additionally, artists who rely on advanced drawing features may find this model somewhat limited. Overall, the Apple Pencil (USB-C) is a well-built, reliable stylus that excels at core tasks. If your iPad is compatible and your needs are focused on writing, annotating, and basic drawing, it offers excellent value within Apple’s ecosystem.

Great laptop
Style: 256GB | Magic Keyboard, Color: Silver, Set: Without AppleCare+
The Neo has quickly become one of my favorite pieces of tech, and a big part of that comes down to two things Apple consistently gets right: MacOS and build quality. This is my first MacOS product and it is a joy to use. Everything feels smooth, intuitive, and thoughtfully designed. From the seamless integration with other Apple devices to the clean interface and reliable performance, it just works in a way that lets me focus on what I’m doing instead of fighting with the system. Then there’s the build quality, which is honestly second to none. The Neo feels incredibly solid the moment you pick it up. The aluminum chassis is sleek yet durable, with no flex or creaking, and the attention to detail is obvious in everything from the hinge to the keyboard. It has that premium feel that makes it clear you’re using a quality device. The trackpad is large and precise, easily the best I’ve used on any laptop, and the keyboard strikes a great balance between comfort and responsiveness. Overall, the Neo delivers a polished experience that’s hard to beat. Between the reliability and elegance of MacOS and the exceptional build quality, it’s a laptop that feels worth the investment.

Impressive web PC, first time mac user, massive upgrade over a 4 year old Lenovo Yoga 13
Style: 256GB | Magic Keyboard, Color: Citrus, Set: Without AppleCare+
The neo is really impressive for $600. It has a nice screen, an incredibly rigid aluminum chassis, loads web pages and videos super fast, boots quick. Impressive Bluetooth and WiFi range and performance (Bluetooth is so much better then my old laptop), good speakers(for a laptop), good battery life, a decent keyboard, excellent trackpad, decent web cam, looks nice, low heat output and no vents to get blocked, compact and light. Highly recommended for anyone shopping for a compact web machine. The only negatives on the hardware are: lack of keyboard backlight, the interior edge of the chassis is sharp, not enough to cut you, but enough to be annoying when typing in some positions, not many ports just a normal USB C and a 2.0 speed USB C (both can be used for charging) and screen does not fold flat, so the laptop cannot be stood up against the wall. I was a bit unsure about the Neo because of it using a cellphone chip, but that was not a problem at all. The Neo is super snappy, as fast as my Workstation/Gaming PC when loading web pages and videos. Also I have not noticed any issues with the amount of RAM, 8GB seems sufficient for running a web browser, just as long as you do not go crazy on tabs in Chrome or if you use Firefox that actually manages tabs properly. As a web browser machine I doubt that this will have any performance issues. I am sure that you would hit limits of the mobile CPU if you do did something serious like video editing, but it is more then enough for more casual use. As someone who had never used a mac before I was a bit apprehensive about trying a different OS, but really it has been fine. I mostly just use my laptop to run a web browser, so I do not interact with the OS that much and MacOS is really pretty nice in many ways. The hardest thing to get used to will be the copy paste shortcuts using command instead of ctrl. Mostly MacOS functions about the same as windows, just better. You can just shut the lid on the Neo and it actually shuts off without hardly using any battery and instantly resumes when you open it again. When you do shut it down boot time is super fast. Mac's update system is pretty unobtrusive and just not stupid like windows update. Mac wants you to sign up to all of their AI and cloud stuff, but you do not have to. I did not even setup the app store. The only apps that I wanted were Firefox and a system wide EQ for my earbuds. I found eqMac on gethub, the free version works pretty well. Anyway don't let the different OS scare you away, MacOS is pretty decent and not really that much different then windows. I got used to it in 2 days of use. Also it should get 7 years of software support. Here is a comparison of the Neo with the 4 year old Lenovo Yoga 13 it is replacing. The Lenovo was $550 when new so a very similar price category from 4 years ago. Not sure if this will be useful to anyone so I am putting this at the end, but I figure that a lot of people will be in the same situation switching from a budget windows machine from a few years ago, Overall the Neo is better in almost every way, except for the screen not being able to fold around like the yoga and the lack of a backlit keyboard. The Neo is much faster, it way outperforms the AMD 4650u in my old lenovo when it comes to loading web pages and videos. My old laptop had started really chugging lately when loading YouTube and twitch videos. Not sure it there is something wrong my old laptop it or if web sites have just gotten that much harder to run. My old lenovo Yoga 13 has an absurd amount of flex in the plastic chassis, when you pick up one corner of the device the other edge sags visibly, the keyboard flexes noticeably when typing, the entire chassis will twist with very little effort. The chassis has also cracked in several places and I have been having to superglue it back together to keep the chassis from literally falling apart. The Neo on the other hand is completely rigid you can lift it anywhere, no flex in the keyboard, you would have to really try to do anything to this thing, it is amazing for a laptop of any price, much less a $600 one. Unless you really do something terrible to it I expect the Neo chassis to last well beond the lifetime of the hardware. The battery life on the neo is great, I would say it is about twice that of the lenovo, even though I just put a new battery in my lenovo 6 months ago. The Bluetooth range on the Neo is at least 2 times better, my earbuds would loose connection to the lenovo if I walked 20 feet away to go to the bathroom. I can walk anywhere in the house and stay connected to the Neo, range of about 40+ feet in the house and about 80+ feet outside. Not only the range is better but also Bluetooth connects faster and just works kind of flawlessly, while in windows I constantly had odd Bluetooth issues. This is with just some basic $30 Anker Bluetooth earbuds. WiFI range and throughput is also much better then my old laptop The yogo 13 had a good screen, so I do not find the screen of the Neo a huge upgrade, it is noticeably more vibrant and it is higher res, although I found 1980x1080 to be fine at this size. Also the Yoga 13 screen could fold all of the way back and around into any position you want and it was touchscreen, so some improvements and some downsides. Still the color on the Neo screen is very nice. The speakers in the Neo are many times better then the the Lenovo, my old Pixel phone even easily outdid the Lenovo, it had impressively bad speakers. The webcam on the Neo is also a big upgrade over the Lenovo, higher res and just better all around. The Neo has a macbook keyboard, so generally it is a very good laptop keyboard. It is not my favorite type of keyboard, but it works quite well and is fast to type. The trackpad is great, it is so much better then any windows computer trackpad that I have used, it functions a bit different so it takes a bit of getting used to, but it is just so much better then windows trackpads. As the Neo uses a cellphone chip it does not really need any cooling, so there are no vents and the chassis never gets hot or even warm. My old lenovo would get uncomfortably hot when charging and I had to be careful not to block the vents when using it on a bed or blanket, but that is not a problem with the Neo. There are no vents to block. Overall this thing is just impressive for $600 and I just do not see any windows laptop coming close to competing for a thin and light web machine. Sure if you want something that can game or do more intensive work stuff, but I just wanted something to run a web browser and this does that incredibly well while also being a beautifully well made device.

Great Product
Style: 256GB | Magic Keyboard, Color: Indigo, Set: Without AppleCare+
I am blown away by the quality of this laptop. I paid much more for a MacBook in 2017 and this MacBook Neo is cheaper and much faster. The battery life is amazing and it performs well for what I use it for, which is mostly school work, streaming videos, creating presentations, and online tutoring. I also think the camera is very good for a laptop!

Great first MacBook
Style: 256GB | Magic Keyboard, Color: Indigo, Set: Without AppleCare+
My first MacBook, bought a month ago, and I love it. Affordable way to learn about the Apple OS. Love the blue color, it works well with my four year old external monitor that I use with my 15 inch PC, and a small Logitech mouse - I cannot stand touchpads. I don’t mind this mechanical touchpad too much, though, yet I prefer my mouse. The only thing you need to be aware of, is that it might get a bit warm while charging. I use the Neo on top of a laptop cooling fan, mostly because this laptop is a bit too “slippery” on my lap due to its light weight , just over 2 pounds. My grandson will pick one up to use at college in the fall. It will be a great laptop for him to take notes in class. And it is a great first MacBook for those of us who want to eventually change to all Apple - I already have an iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. So, enjoy it - I sure do.
