An early Rage Against The Machine gig on YouTube,
Loud, brash and heartfelt. Loving it :-bd
We’re all individuals, except me.

I woke up this morning but I’m still in the dark

I've been lurking for a while with the odd post to mine for advice and have been impressed with what gets listened to. Notable but surprising (only because no one I know listens to them except me) highlights have been Spacemen 3 and also Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, so I'd like to post a couple.

How about this...
Keiren Phillps and The Hypnotic Brass Ensemble - https://youtu.be/CF1hAn3SIpc


Not Spacemen 3 but...

Let it run into Good Times for best effects.

First one - brilliant!

Second one - brilliant!

I think the only reason I don't listen to Spiritualized more these days is that I don't have the time to be still and do nothing but listen. They're a band to listen to with headphones on whilst having a bit of quality thinking time.

Just finished listening to 'The slide song' with my headphones on - sooooo good!

I've still got my limited edition glow in the dark CD of Pure Phase somewhere AND the pill packet version of Ladies and Gentlemen.....

Just brilliant that. I think this was my 1st listen Spiritualized and blew me away at the time. 'Ladies and Gentlemen....; gets a lot of (justified) praise but Pure Phase is a great album. All Of My Tears just kills.

I split my unopened 'Ladies and Gentlemen...' pill pack CD for a Mate to use for his wedding song. They're now divorced. I'll never forgive them.

Ooh, I’ll have to listen to Pure Phase. I’ve got Ladies and Gentleman, along with Let it all come down. Was great live at Glastonbury a long time ago.

Now for a confession, with all the hassle of lockdown, I’m currently enjoying Kylie’s Disco. Fun upbeat and highly escapist!

Enjoy whatever you’re listening to and stay safe.

That would have been something else mate. I was well into them back around then.

Saw them at the Barrowlands (Glasgow) in the early nineties and they were exceptional, possibly the best and definitely the most intense gig I've ever been to. I was disappointed to note that Zach was smiling on one of their more recent live videos that I watched, it just seemed wrong somehow (I acknowledge that it may not be possible to remain an angry young man indefinitely though!) :grin:

Started off having a doo-wop day. Marcels (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RP8O_UwVjFs) etc, then took in a bit of Ronettes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RUOp6Qjn9U) - they all look like they're having a whale of a time. In fact I'm a sucker for 60s girls (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0d7GBvT ... 55610EEC66). Diverted via the Noisettes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRFHiBW9RE8). Ended up veering towards Frankie Laine and "Blazing Saddles" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsbH96yUVUM). Good for a Cheery Friday. As is well known, Mel Brooks wanted someone "like Frankie Laine" to sing his theme, and he ended up with... Frankie Laine!

Inexplicably Reg’s Doo Wop sent me in totally the opposite direction.

First choice tonight was Talking Heads 'More Songs of Buildings & food'

Then Mogwai's 'As Love Continues'. If you're into this stuff You'll likely be aware already.

Lastly, Bon Iver's 'i,i'. Not everyone's cup of tea but, IMO, just brilliant.

I stuck a long post up on here about gigs I'd been to and different albums that were good in different ways etc. Somehow lost it. Anyway just catching up with old posts:

I went with him, and agree it was ace. I should buy the download of it https://www.dischord.com/fugazi_live_se ... land-51495

And this week I have mostly been listening to Darker Handcraft by Trap Them https://youtu.be/kQklLcreRQU, which worryingly is somehow 10 years old.

After binging on Narcos & Narcos Mexico Netflix was adamant that it should serve up nothing but drug crime related programming so in order to break the malgorithm I sought out something totally different and decided on Hip-Hop evolution.

It's brilliant so I have been revisiting RUN-DMC, Eric B & Rakim and MC Eiht.
