Bill Evans-Bill's hit tune. Hangover cure.

Version: The Balboa Jazz Club in Madrid (1979).

the soft boys - underwater moonlight
Never listened to them yet. Name of the band is a combi of Burroughs wild boys and soft machine, right?

I'm not sure,but that sounds totally plausible. I know that Hitchcock had a different name for the band, and at a gig at the last minute changed it to the Soft Boys. can't remember the original name.
 
Two great new releases that have been tending to my oral gratification...

Grinderman- Grinderman

Nick Cave returns in dramatic form with this Birthday Party-esque rock n roll album, this has certainly got me grinding it made me want to shout at people on my way to work! (oh and check out Mr Caves Lenny inspired handlebar on the inside cover)

Arcade Fire - Neon Bible

A second outing and quite a follow up, some critics have called it disappointing but I can see it growing like an ivy into my brain.

If you can only afford one though I'd go for Grinderman, you have your orders...now go buy :)

THANKS! I had not heard of this CD! I'll pick it up asap. This is the one Nick Cave CD that seems to have been missed by me.

And yes, Nick Cave does look a bit like Lemmy in that pimp-eriffic moustache!

Best,
Bill

Nick Cave? Who the hell is that?

Morton Feldmans for Samuel Beckett & for Bunita Marcus.
Gidon Kremers (Bach) Sonatas and Partitas

is that a joke ROC?:confused:

If not, he's one of your country men summoned up from the firey depths of hell (not New Zealand) to unleash his own brand of rock and err roll. Also he occassionally keeps himself busy writing love ballads for Kylie Minogue!;)

I'm liking this one a lot, and I loved their first one.
I'll try Grinderman.

EDIT: just looked at amazon...it doesn't out in Canada until April!!! damn. the reviews on amazon.co.uk look promising, tho.

OH MY GOD is that a freakin' DIG at New Zealand???? Don't make me hurt you BSB...:D

(Of course, I'm only this wound up about it 'cos there's an Aussie involved...;) )

Sort of a joke... I really have never heard anything from Nick Cave as I'm not really interested in the form (flak jacket at the ready).
My tastes run a different path and there is not time for everything.

I should throw it back on you guys (with good humor) - you listen to some of Mr Feldmans work and I'll listen to Mr Cave.
Why should one be more obvious or relevant than the other?

Oh...and Danielle... your lack of punctuation is really annoying.
This is a forum dedicated to a writer. I think you could at least afford some full stops, commas and capitals every now and then.

Love,
Music and punctuation nazi.

Is this the guy ROC?

If so I'm liking the hair, it makes me want to know the music!

Here's something for you to enjoy God of grammar;

Hehehe. Yup that's the guy. He sure was a shortsighted motherfucker. Which may explain the hair :)
He was a very entertaining and interesting writer too. You'll find several books buy him on any major site. Give My Regards To 8th Street being the most accessible.

Oh and ,.!?-;)...,,""'!!!!!!! to you too.

old and in the way
Listening to a bunch of old Peter Hammill stuff tonight. Just finished "The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage." "Over" is up now and either "A Black Box" or "The Future Now" after that. '70s progressive rock (especially Hammill/Van der Graaf) has always been a bit of a guilty pleasure for me and I'm giving myself a full dose of it tonight.
 
Currently spinning 'the tennesse fire' by my morning jacket.Is this the best band in America today?
BTW Henrychinaski you need to revisit Led Zep1 to recall what all the fuss was about.

At work tonight : Jill Sobule, His Name Is Alive, Martin Newell - a trio of artists that our management team discovered.
Excellent synergy.
 
Can't stop playing Funreal by Arcade Fire.Saw them live a couple of weeks ago and this album sounds even greater.........'wake up' is fuckin' top drawer.
