Pretending it had a bigger impact from people getting to the end of the Sopranos than from Glee is also retcon.
I refuse to believe that Journey song even existed in pre-streaming times. Complete retcon.
The catalogue number is WARPLP69
Nice
That's a Matra Rancho
Well look at this (also listen to it)
You learn something new every day! My law exam was apparently so bad they decided to pretend I hadn't even turned up. I want that hour back WJEC.
The eighties were a wild time for unexpected collaborations!
This reminds me of reading an interview with Nathan East in Bassist or something as a teen (i thought you had to read these!) where he talked about Phil Collins playing McCartney-esque basslines on his demos and thinking 'how can Phil Collins possibly play the bass, he is a drummer'.
Ha i knew he couldn't really play the bass, the big fraud.
This is great, played it through twice tonight. It reminds me of early Verve (complimentary!)
Go for it
Also feeling very discombobulated that MBV have been playing live and I just decided not to go to any of the gigs, let alone see them repeatedly and/or spend all day on a Megabus
Just got vertigo at the realisation mbv is now older than those EPs were when *I* first heard them
There's a Baltic shop near us that usually has them, and Lidl's occasional Scandi week. Shouldn't be so hard though!
Time for the skunk-rock revival imo.
Undoubtedly. The only time the Steinberg cricket-bat bass has looked cool.
Yes! Might even have been billed as an all-nighter which sounded extremely exciting up until we had to get back to my gf's sister's in Turnpike Lane .
Not sure if that was the same gig as the one where Mani set a wedge monitor alight with a cigarette butt.
Also remember seeing the Scream at Brixton and Mani dedicating their set to Arkan, who'd "just been killed by the CIA and MI5". Different times! I mean you don't go to a PS gig for coherent political posturing, and I was particularly unaware in those days, but still.
I always wondered who 'Richard Montgomery, a Glaswegian who died last week' was.
Not sure if K Shields was on that one, but they played a Crash FM fundraiser at the L2 in Liverpool soon after and he was with them then. ADF were supporting as was the fashion at that time. Mindblowing for this kid from the sticks!
Yeah I saw them a few times around then, and apart from Glasto '97 they were always fantastic. I taped this off the radio and it was constantly on in the car www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmHD...
I don't think I would've put much money on Hooky being the last one standing!
Fucking hell, one of my favourite ever bassists. RIP.
Can't quite believe HMHB gigs are being scheduled a year in advance like.
