SIMPLE MINDS : Chelsea girl


Acquired Woolworths in London in late 1983
Ref: ZUM 11 - Published by Zoom in Scotland in 1979
Support: 45 laps 17 cm
Titles: Chelsea girl - / - Garden of Hate

I think I remember that I had this 45 rpm in a batch of ten discs packaged in plastic bought from Woolworths in central London, as Mystic Knights of the Oingo Bongo . If so, since this is a group known one can be sure he was one of only two drives in the batch that the pocket was visible.
Chelsea Girl is the second single from Simple Minds, released a few weeks after the album and single titled Life in a Day ( Chelsea Girl is on the album). I bought this album when I had already Real to Real Cacophony and I remember it was pretty hard decried at the time. I had read at least one chronic who saw Simple Minds simple followers Magazine or XTC , even to hire their producer John Leckie, who in fact was not their first choice : they would prefer John Cale or John Anthony, the producer of Van Der Graff Generator.
The group quickly denied this album before released the second in the aftermath a few months later. This is certainly not a masterpiece, but also a very successful pocket, it provides at least two great songs, both singles, Life in a day and Chelsea Girl . Except that at the replay, the musical reference points seem to look more towards Ultravox! , Sparks, Roxy Music, the Stranglers or Velvet Underground than Magazine.
While the cover of the 45 laps Life in a Day was more than minimal, that of Chelsea Girl is almost luxurious, with a painting the face, Thomas Rathmell, and the back of Mary Ruth Craig. In fact, the latter who was first contacted for the cover, but was most inspired by the B-side, Garden of hate, and produced a beautiful picture though dreary that s' is naturally found on the back. To the front is Jim Kerr, who spotted the painting among counsel for Arista Records. He found it perfectly suited to illustrate this song, whose character is based on the model of Swingin 'London Jean Shrimpton . On
Chelsea Girl, Simple Minds is in its register more electric than synthetic. There is a big fat guitar riffs and even a solo. It's a song I still like very much, with a refrain not really pop but it works well. A few weeks after much listening Rock and Roll Heart by Lou Reed to chronicle the relationship of Chelsea Girl with Temporary Thing, reported by the site simpleminds.org , I have not jumped ears. After checking, I appreciate what they have been bitten by Lou Reed to build their membership, but it is far from a real plagiarism.
In a similar vein, with the garden in the title, I had a flick at heart when they hear the intro synth Garden of hate, which made me think of the Chinese Garden Taxi-Girl . There is also a small link in the theme of the lyrics, but even if listening to this song any more composed after the sessions of the album, could very possibly start with Taxi-Girl's urge to compose Garden Chinese any comparison ends there: the song of Taxi-Girl is a success to one thousand leagues above that of Simple Minds.

PRELUDE : Out there


Acquired on a garage sale around 2009 Epernay
Ref: 45.PY.3052 - Published by Pye in France in 1974
Support: 45 laps 17 cm
Titles: Out there - / - After the goldrush

Mojo recently devoted its cover to Neil Young for the forty years of the album Harvest . On this occasion, they produced a list of fifty "best" songs selected and with commentary by journalists and celebrities, including Howe Gelb, who referred to arcade Music, a title he has a cover sublime. I reported this to the story because we know that these rankings are as valuable as a poll allegedly conducted in good and due form, but Music Arcade finds himself at the very bottom of the table and it After The goldrush is No. 1. That at least allowed me to learn this song, like much of the album was inspired by a screenplay by Dean Stockwell and Herb Berman for a film that never happened. The theme the song remains enigmatic, but it obviously turned around ecology.
For years I refused to be interested in this period of Neil Young. Full new wave, I rejected particularly Harvest, which I thought was a typically hard hippies. I changed my mind since, and when I saw After the goldrush on the record sleeve of an unknown group, my curiosity was aroused and I took it. I do not know anything about this group, and at first view the scale model, I even thought it was called Out There and the A side was After the goldrush . In fact, Prelude is an English band and this is his first 45 laps, taken from their debut album How Long Is Forever? . Side A
Out there has all the attributes of the folk-rock song, between the Byrds and Fairport Convention , but there is something wrong, a rhythm a little lame, the ingredients do not mix well and it is frankly not a success.
is awaiting a bus that members of Prelude began to sing After the goldrush . That they liked and they recorded this great a cappella version, more Crosby Stills-Nash & Young-CSNY than themselves, which quickly found itself facing a A second edition of the 45 laps because it is this title which was a hit in Britain and the United States in 1974. It is also virtually the only tube Prelude , apart Platinum blonde in 1980, but it was twice as a new version was also ranked in the English charts in 1982.
In preparing this post, I (re) discovered with great surprise that I had since August 2008 in my iTunes version of After the goldrush by ... Nana Mouskouri! Nana was certainly inspired by the success of Prelude to include its version, also has cappella cover album in its Nana's book of songs appeared in the same year 1974. It's weird, but when she sings in English Nana gives me the impression of having a lisp (Nana has often performed this song on stage, as here in Monte Carlo in 1981 ). In style, it's worth the cover of Still I'm sad the Yardbirds by The Companions Chanso n in 1965 under the title Ravens winter . This is the version that Patrick French Eudeline has performed live in Perpignan in September 2005, accompanied by Pascal Comelade .

A live version of 'After the goldrush 1984.

LE TONE : Joli dragon


Acquired probably in Reims in 1998
Ref: 004 / 3102-2 NV - Published by MangeDisc / Naïve in France in 1998
Support: CD 12 cm
Titles: Joli Dragon - Is it love - Joli Dragon (Mad Professor remix)

is the kind of thing a bit beta well stupid actually, which is perfect for me. A basic hip-hop, a hint of reggae, synth gurgling in the Perrey JJ (who The tone was honored with his first single Jean-Jacques and Dolphins) and some are looking for Judith nice dragon. Super.
In addition, it's not as if this thing happened to me from nowhere. It is as if the little dinosaur of Jonathan Richman had mutated nice dragon, gaining the ability to spit fire but lose all its verses. Since we are in the field of electronics funny, the approximation is more convincing with the famous Ball (come here)! of Production ptosis. I also think of a contemporary 1990s, Roudoudou and Peace and tranquility to Earth, and even more blatant on side B, Is it love , which starts way house music slowed sharply. The remix of
Joli Dragon by Mad Professor is too vague to be really interesting dub. Before consulting discography of The Tone , I completely forgot that, through its agreements with its shareholder Sony was Creation who released this record in England, where he has had some success . The English edition has many other remixes, but I am quite certain that only the original version is essential.

THE DAVE CLARK FIVE : Glad all over


Acquired at Age Concern in Dover December 29, 2010
Ref: DB 7154 - Published by Columbia in 1963 in England
Support: 45s 17cm
Titles: Glad All Over - / - I know After you

Lonnie Donegan and Johnny Kidd , here is a third and probably last record made in the small stack of 45s sixties found at Age Concern in Dover late December. As
Shakin 'All Over , Glad All Over was No. 1 in sales in England, early 1964, explaining that he can drag copies like this in the English province for years later. No. 1 above was I Want to Hold Your Hand and, like many English bands of the era, the entire route of the Dave Clark Five was done in the shadow of Beatles , including the United States where they were the second group of the British invasion to pass Ed Sullivan Show . The Dave Clark Five is a group that has been very successful, but not very good reputation and is instead relegated to the appendices of rock history. Significantly, perhaps I had one of their titles and there on compilations, but it's actually the first disc that I buy them, even if I had been a relatively short period of recovery time of Glad All Over by Pop Paraders .
I took the time to listen whole album of 1964 which the single figure and if the group was effective and dynamic place second knife seems artistically deserved. The song, often in several voices, is completely Beatles, as in hundreds of groups at the time. At music is often derivative, with decals credited to group members Twist and Shout (No time to lose ) and Tequila ( Chaquita ), a title inspired by the folk and gospel ( Doo Dah ) and good recovery Do you love me.
To stick to the 45s, the two sides are energetic and rhythmic. The B, I know you , a Beatles song decidedly too, but good guitar riffs and organ. The tube Glad all over the gun away Beatles and without a sound or garage tu Louie Louie , it is by its rhythmic, heavy drums (the drummer is the leader Dave Clark, whose instrument was placed in front on stage) and saxophone very fat, with a nice organ just behind. It will not look 12:00 to 2:00 p.m., but this title was released one year prior to the first Kinks riff is too often forgotten anthologies sixties.
The posthumous reputation of the Dave Clark Five was not favored by the jealousy aroused by the business sense by Dave Clark, who has retained the rights to such recordings, which allowed him to publish compilations of juicy, and acquired those of the BBC broadcast sixties Ready Steady Go! , whose reruns and video editions of the 80 included almost systematically, how strange, a benefit of the Dave Clark Five. One is never better served than by yourself ...

FELT : Bubblegum perfume


Purchased at Big Primitive Sound System at the Apart Coffee Reims January 8, 2011
Ref: CRE LP 069 - Published by Creation in England in 1990
Support: 33 rpm 30cm
20 tracks

This is called closing the loop, or cut back without making it burst the big bubble of chewing gum that has swelled up. For
Felt few months after his separation, he was to put an end to his career with this first compilation of years Creation. For my part, fall on this disc after more than Twenty years in the same place where I "found" my copy of another compilation Creation, Sunset of Jasmine Minks, it also gave the impression of a closed chapter. While this is a long time that I am no longer an active member of Primitive Radio , it made me feel funny to fall on hard that I often get airplay, and even more to know that is to help ensure its financial survival that the association has resolved to sell them. I have long protested against
legend, created by Lawrence when the band split, which would he had the project starting out ten albums and ten singles of Felt before stopping. The first objection is that this statement knowingly fails Index, the first disc of Felt, recorded by Lawrence himself. I was wrong on this point, since I myself had overlooked the fact that this statement, found in very large on the face of the cover of this Bubblegum perfume, is subject to the restriction "" during the eighties. The account is good, so even if the idea of major project conducted from beginning to end is obviously a self-made legend, who has appealed to journalists. If I think
bio slipped into this copy of the disc sent to radio, the French journalists were not likely to take over this caption: Virgin France, which distributed Creation at the time, merely copied its letter-head one-page bio and half in English by Creation. Except that this bio does not date from 1990 but from 1988, when the output The Pictorial Jackson Review , the previous album appeared at Creation and distributed by Virgin. There is of course not once said that it is a posthumous compilation!
Lawrence has treated the pouch. For the first time, but not the last (see Tearing up the album chart or a picture spread in the press in 2010 ), he uses his body to give us information (here, a choice of four titles on the album). On the back, he plays well in writing, even in very large, "look the installment to the list of titles . And indeed, we find little in the coup, the list of twenty titles of the album on the thin edge of the pocket! I find the CD sleeve even more successful: as there is less room there is a close-up photography, with text that is truncated, and especially there a color on the pink and green that I like (For vinyl, red-green contrast is only used for disk labels).
is partly because I turned the page too Felt that I have not bought this disc to its output. The other reason is that, unlike Gold Mine Trash , compiling for the period equivalent Cherry Red, which contained two unreleased demos, it has only previously published titles, and I had already nineteen twenty (I lacked that Book of Swords , the single from the album without Lawrence Train Above the City ).
Casually, and despite the lack of budget to save, a tragedy for Lawrence, Felt was very prolific at Creation. In just three years, from 1986 to 1988, they released four singles and EPs plus or minus five albums more or less minis and more or less instrumental. I find the mix of twenty titles available and very well balanced for my taste. Quite logically, the priority seems to have been given the titles released albums out, which account for half the battery total. At the faces are all there ( Ballad Of The Band , Space blues, The final resting of Ark) , but also the best B-sides, as I did not mean to hurt you , Be still Beach Boys, the only recovery available on disk by Felt (They came to play other on stage. In Reims, in particular, they resumed Hyacinth House The Doors and undermine Outdoor of Wire) There's no such thing as victory . There are also strategically placed at the beginning and the end of the first face, the two B-sides of the maxi Rain of Crystal turns , I Will Die With My Head in Flames and Sandman's on the rise again . The more I hear these two songs very short and very fast and I like them! In addition, two of the three titles extracts Forever Breathes The Lonely Word are the faces of A max, which is therefore the only disks in Felt Creation to be fully repeated here.
instrumental side, the assay is good too. There are five, rather short, spread deftly across the disc. My favorites are Ferdinand Magellan , piano, and travel to enlightenment , extract Let the snakes crinkle Their Heads to Death .
One thing that remains mysterious is the title of the compilation. "Bubblegum perfume " does not seem to be extracted from the lyrics of a song Felt and I can not associate a smell of bubblegum, whatever the group. For cons, the fragrance and the colors are pink and green as a foretaste of Denim , the new project in which Lawrence had already plunged at the time of publication of this compilation.
There have been other compilations released since Felt. My advice would be to avoid Stains were decade, yet the only disk that covers the entire course of Felt, but only fifteen songs, which is not enough. It seems more sensible to combine Goldmine trash and Bubblegum perfume or two volumes of Absolute classic masterpieces . The problem is that if Cherry Red has reissued in 2003 and keeps the entire catalog available album Felt , compilations Catalog Creation, Bubblegum perfume and Absolute classic masterpieces II, are currently not available .

THE DELGADOS : American trilogy


Acquired Oxfam Books & Music in Kentish Town
18 November 2010 Ref: Chem039CD - Published by Chemikal Underground Scotland in 2000
Support: CD 12 cm
Titles: American Trilogy (Edit) - Euphoria Heights - How Can We Hang On to a Dream?

The Oxfam charity shops are renowned for being among the most expensive. They are also among the only ones claiming to sell some discs priced collector. So Oxfam shop specializing in books and music in the middle of London, we are not surprised to find few bargains generally, but does not stop me to go take a look when I get the chance. And that day was festive. I do not know why, but there were developments in two-ray I'm interested. The thrillers were both at 99 pence, and I found two Richard Stark / Donald Westlake I did not, while CD singles were three to 99 pence. Rummaging though, I managed to do a lot comprising two-thirds of discs Delgados, including this one.
From the first seconds of American Trilogy, I knew that I knew this song, which means I probably somewhere on a CD compilation released by a magazine. I also immediately associate this song to my favorite time of Mercury Rev, Deserter's of the songs and Classic Goddess On A Hiway , which is not surprising because Dave Fridman put his paw producer on both discs. Fridman has a reputation for having a heavy hand in production and increase the layers of sound. Here, it certainly worked but it's very structure of the perfectly crafted and well proportioned. The strings in particular are present but small enough not to fall for whipped cream.
Side lyrics, it's quite surprising, with a narrator suffering from depression who trusts. I did not understand why the song is called American trilogy , but in any case it seems irrelevant An American Trilogy Mickey Newbury . If my favorite track of the rest The Delgados dirge , whose only flaw being a cover of the New Bad Things, American Trilogy ranks second in the standings and will be renamed Poulidor but it takes the top spot of the original titles of Annex Delgados.
If the first song is sung mainly by Alun Woodward, Emma Pollock is that it sticks fairly transparent to Euphoria Heights, a pretty nice song where the guitars are more in the background, leaving the show from the rhythm section. How Can We
hang on to a dream? is one of my favorite songs by Tim Hardin. The recovery in the Delgados are is nice but does not do much. I remember most noisy sound samples that serve as its backbone.

LOU REED : Rock and roll heart


Purchased at the Little Shop Primitive in Reims in the late 1980's
Ref: AL 4100 - Published by Arista in the U.S. in 1976
Support: 33 laps 30 cm
12 titles

Regarding Lou Reed , my journey began with Street hassle. Then I redid part of the path in reverse to the tube being interested Walk on the Wild Side , the live electric Rock and roll animal , two disks that had a lot of friends, as Berlin, critics strongly recommended, so much so that the disk relatively disappointed me. Critics insisted much on the Velvet Underground , I happily discovered, and even Metal Machine Music, I made the mistake of giving me a price already collector, to celebrate the successful completion of a review I believe, and I do not regret having sold very quickly, except that I should try to get a better price.
Regarding Rock and Roll Heart , our roads had never crossed until the day of 1988 or 1989, when I heard the title track of the album, with the guitar riff saturated and the piano intro, the peculiar voice of Lou Reed and the organ on the chorus. And I said, "But it's crazy it looks like an excerpt from The Pictorial Jackson Review of Felt! ".
Luckily, someone put up for sale shortly after the primitive copy pressing in the American album, perfect condition and not too expensive. I have not missed ...
The song Rock and Roll Heart , the 45 rpm single from the album (it was not a pipe), remains One of my favorite disc. From the Velvets, Lou Reed sang the power of Rock and Roll . Here he talks about himself and his true nature: "I guess I'm just dumb ' Cause I Know That I is not smart, goal Deep down inside, I got a rock 'n' roll heart. Yeah-yeah-yeah, deep down inside I got a rock'n'roll heart "(" I must be a little beta, because I know I'm not keen mind, but in my heart, I got a heart rock and roll. Yé yé yé, deep inside of me, I have a heart rock and roll "). As Lou Reed this for years as an artist whose subject is rock and roll, I guess, if it should write or sing this song today, he would transform into rock and roll art . The only problem I have with this title is that I put myself in the lead our National Monument Rock could resume, on the advice of a good manager or his label. As far as I know he did not, but just to imagine singing "Oh Yéééééé! Yéééééé! Yéééééé! I have a rock heart and rolleeeuuu! "Bet I spoil my enjoyment one bit.
It's also about rock in the first title of the disc, I believe in love : "As everybody knows I believe in good time music. Yeah, good time rock 'n' roll. I believe in music, music, music. It'll Satisfy Your Soul, but - Oh, I believe in love (Good time music) . As much as I walk for Rock and Roll Heart, as there I really feel that Lou does not care about our mouth, as his " As everybody knows " and his "purpose " seem to indicate. He amuses himself on the end to make lots of different choruses on "I Believe in Love " and "Good time music " but I have as much trouble making this song the first degree that the entire discography Denim .
This disc is the first that Lou Reed has recorded for Arista after leaving RCA. It was recorded very quickly with a group including several musicians from the jazz scene. These are the three tracks where it means the more I like least: the instrumental Chooser And The Chosen One , Follow the leader and A Sheltered Life. It can not be coincidence that these last two titles are just two old songs that were already in the repertoire of Velvet, the first was performed live in 1969 (there is a version The Quine tapes ) and other was recorded as a demo in 1967 and published in the cabinet Peel Slowly and See . It has been fun and Reed mistreat them. At least A Sheltered Life is saved by his humor, Lou interpreting a character of provincial never left his hole ("Never Been to England , Never Been to France, never really Learned how to dance, I've never taken dope and I've never taken drugs, ah, I've never danced it a bear-skin rug, Guess It's True, What They Say All Those people, I'm gonna have to loose my hometown Ways ").
But there's a title on this album that sounds like the Velvet Underground, it's amazing Banging on my drum . The short instrumental part at the end makes me think even some pre-Velvet titles like You're driving me insane .
My other favorite tracks on the disc are Vicious circle, with fairly minimal voice well highlighted, You wear it so well a slow song with piano and brass, from Lou Reed fairly typical with Garland Jeffreys backing vocals, and finally the hard Temporary Thing , a title that seems slow paced and announce the next album, Street hassle.
surely I will not pretend that this album is a masterpiece, but it's a nice drive and very consistent, maybe a little too little known beyond the few excerpts that appear on compilations. In any case, I would bet that Lawrence had to use his copy to the bottom of the furrows.

How To Masterbate With A Banna

GO-KART MOZART : Tearing up the album chart


Acquired by mail from Amazon in July 2005
Ref: BRUM 2 CD - Published by West Midlands in England in 2005
Support: CD 12 cm
12 titles

After the second album Denim , Denim on ice, I listened very little, I got a little disinterested activities of Lawrence. Novelty rock compilation I have not tried because I already had the vast majority of titles. I was not aware at the time of the mishap occurred in September 1997 in Lawrence when his final attempt to have a worldwide hit with Summer smash on EMI Major overturned at the last moment, the label that canceled out disc on the pretext that the gaiety of the tube shown in the second degree stuck with the wrong emotion aroused by the "Summer crash of Diana Spencer. And when Go-Kart Mozart released her debut album, Instant Wigwam and Igloo mixture, I had to be more or less familiar but I did not feel concerned enough to try to listen or buy this disc. By cons, who knows why, Tearing up when the album chart arrived in mid-2005, I told myself that it was nevertheless an album of Lawrence and I wanted to support it by buying the disc and mainly to see where he was musically.
And listen, the first happiness is to discover that Lawrence is actually there, and especially that he kept his voice and his singing brother of Lou Reed. Musically, it remains exactly in the line of denim, with a certain distance from the subjects, not to mention the songs in the third degree Most of the time, and still many references to the 1970s, starting with the cover, including the lettering is inspired by a James Last album . As for photos, Lawrence is very strong, since the bob and sees in a swimsuit on the cover of the book ("I still Want To Be a Star goal I just sold my guitar and You Know the Way Things Are .. . ). Inside, which unfolds in post, it is in the same outfit on a larger picture, sitting on a toilet lid, and you get to read the message written on his belly (he had already used this support in 1990 for the cover of the compilation Bubblegum perfume ): "Go-Kart Mozart - Classic upstarts.
If continuity with Denim is so strong because, as Lawrence explained including an interview with Magic in 2003, it is in fact inseparable projects, release under the name of being reserved for Denim discs with a large budget released by big labels, "B-sides" or recordings made with bits of string being reserved for Go-Kart Mozart. This explains why four of the songs were originally released on Denim take over the band's third album which never emerged.
Ultimately, while I ended up buying too Instant Wigwam and Igloo mixture , I would say Tearing up the album chart is my favorite album of post-production Felt of Lawrence. It's an album short and compact twelve good songs with a very strong unit, even if the palette of sounds ranging from electric rock to pop seventies, through various evolutions of synthetic sounds of the early 70's to the 80 (Jean-Jacques Perrey to new wave, actually). Although I guess the budget does not meet expectations of Lawrence, the sound is excellent and the project participants fairly numerous, including Terry Miles and WH Smiffy (the Smithy of Denim likely) to synths, Tony Barber (former Buzzcoks second generation) and Steve New (Rich Kids, who died at age 50 in 2010) guitars.
As I like the whole disc, it's hard to isolate securities. After referring to precedence Chicory Tip and Foghat, Lawrence cites this time Marmalade, a Scottish band from the early 70s, on Listening to Marmalade , perhaps his most since Index Electric in 1979! Oddly, Electric rock & roll is much less power. Rather it is a "highly artificial, almost new wave, in which Lawrence sings at the beginning, like Jona Lewie , which has just resumed Seaside Shuffle Terry Dactyl and the Dinosaurs opposite B Summer smash . With each listen, it feels strange to hear him sing "Ooh rock & roll" ... Summer is here
is very pop and may be regarded as a Summer smash bis. Both titles were strung building site, which recalls the rhythmic In the Summertime Mungo Jerry and Fuzzy duck, a waltz punctuated by sound strangled duck electronic are perhaps those where Lawrence gives the impression most of us take the leg and have his tongue in cheek, as they say in English.
More than fifteen years after his departure from Felt, it seems that Lawrence had yet to pass a message to Maurice Deebank. He uses Delta Echo Echo Beta Alpha Neon Kettle the international radio alphabet, but the message remains cryptic, it seems fair to question the memory of a police control. The title itself sounds like Devo or Taxi-Girl first period.
At least two titles clearly refer to the world of drugs and drug addicts, At The DDU ( At the control center Addiction ), which begins before you leave enough electricity in a soaring pop chorus on a surprise, "You Know That massive shot of meth Will not Hit You At The DDU " and & Donna ; The Dopefiends ("Hey Donna come on, I want to score, Donna Hey come on, I want some more ). It is a world which at first glance would have seemed completely foreign to Lawrence Felt, but these words and pictures of a gaunt Lawrence suggests that there's lived there, what confirms an article from 2010 Guardian which speaks of a time when Lawrence was in the hole, addicted to smack and homeless.
This period seems happily over and 2011 should be a year full of projects for Lawrence (but let us beware, these projects were already announced for 2010 and Lawrence is no stranger to incessant delays), with two discs to finalize Go-Kart Mozart, the mini-album Mini-Mart and the album On the street hot dog, and two projects with Paul Kelly, documentary, Lawrence Of Belgravia , a draft was proposed in London several years ago , and a book of photographs accompanied by Felt extracts from the newspaper of Lawrence.

Tearing up the album chart is always available, especially in its distributor Cherry Red .

BURD EARLY : Leveler


Acquired by correspondence in Amoeba United States around 2008
Ref: west018 - Published by Western Vinyl in the U.S. in 2003
Support: CD 12 cm
9 tracks I listened to a

cassette compilations of my car when it happened that way I forgot, excel, more than seven minutes without a second too long. I thought it was an excellent title Bill Callahan of Smog or I could not remember. It's that got to a red light or at the end of my journey when I could look at the cover of the cassette, that I realized my mistake: I'd just listen and greatly appreciate new Tangent of Burd Early . But my mistake is understandable: if James Angelos, the New York behind the pseudo Burd Early, not a voice as deep as that of Callahan, construction and instrumentation Tangent , and even how to raise his voice and intonations, make me think a lot of recent work in the former lead singer of Smog. It
Philip R. who put me first on the track Burd Early to 2002-2003 in giving me the link to the MP3 Dritfwood at Epitonic. Subsequently, I collected a few others, including Fertilizer Waiting To Happen , Phonecall Away and Tangent. Meanwhile before listening to this tape, I also gained one way or another two CDs Burd Early, Observatory and Mind and mother, but upon returning to home I was disappointed that neither contained Tangent. Never mind, just a few clicks this Leveler to cover more qu'insipide was ordered.
The key of this record is that of slow songs, acoustic, with instrumental parts that make you think for example the work of Mick Turner . A comparison not chosen randomly, as Turner and Burd Early were label mates at Western Vinyl and the original edition of Observatory has even been taken out by King Crab, a label of Anchor and Hope, the label the Dirty Three. Of these songs
calm, I remember most Phonecall away, lit on purpose by the voice of Rosario Garcia-Montero, and Desire asymptotic very successful with its pedal steel, which has a small side Leonard Cohen in song.
The central portion of the disc is more energetic, with Tangent First, the battery pack by Tim Barnes and Here we go again, that reminds me a lot of instrumental tracks from Calexico (but those not taste Mexican).

After 2005, Burd Early took the tangent and James Angelos has launched a new project, And Ret , who released Album Gasworks in 2006.

Outside Holland, career discography of Nits started in 1979 with their debut album at CBS, Tent. We really did not know at the time that the group had released in 1977 at her first single, Yes or No , and even an album, printed in 1000 copies in 1978.
Tent, which I found cheap at Gibert Jeune at one of my first trips to Paris, is the first of a trilogy of albums of new wave Nits to store next to those of ' Ultravox! of Wire or XTC. I bought Work, the third, which was released in 1981, but initially I had New flat, I've always considered more or less my favorite of the lot, that tape duplication.
If, paradoxically, I found myself in London to buy at full price (£ 6.49) this disc Dutch well aired in France, for a variety of reasons, including the fact that I lived in London at the time, I had a little money, I found that the disk (of course) but I think my motivation was primarily to make sure that I had all my favorite records of Nits few months after purchasing the same place the mini-album Kilo, too slow and too jazzy, a huge and abrupt disappointment after the great success that had been pop album Omsk .
is the reference in my column Nits disc Yes Yes that made me want to highlight their first records, I'm not so often. I was very pleasantly surprised by listening carefully New flat. This disc is less synthetic than I remembered and much more energetic and even electric. Some keyboards, for sure, but not that much. Just a few snippets of drum machine, a lot of electric guitar, but ultimately the two most value are the battery, which is also supported, and bass, huge.
There is not a weakness of the fourteen tracks on the album. It speaks of places (apartments, office ), objects, people too, and even a guy who turns into an object (A statue ). Everything is covered in a tone as detached as the graphics of the cover is clean. The new apartment
New flat which opens the album during its early B-side, cooking different Different kitchen. Both, like Uncle on Mars, I do not think badly Devo. It is even more blatant New flat in live recording in 1982 in Haarlem found, with 361 other new titles, in Files Nits.
I do not want to multiply the comparisons because the disc has its intrinsic value, excellent, but the reference points are the most obvious XTC's Barry Andrews era, Wire ( Saragossa particular) and more rarely Kraftwerk ( His first object ). Singing on the chorus of Safety in numbers makes me strongly think about a title of the first Talking Heads but I have not taken the time to find which one.
I'm not far from thinking that the group consider these first discs - wrongly - as simple short pieces of youth. In 1989, 33 laps on the triple / double live CD Urk , Then Work was barely represented and Tent and New flat completely absent. Same or substantially on most compilations released. These three books have been published on CD at a time, but as much of their music at CBS, they are long out of print and sold at prices prohibitive to occasion. Given that they are not available for download, the best is yet to buy the editions in 33 laps, yet affordable. These records are essential to any fan of new wave are well worth the effort.

WAVE MACHINES : Punk spirit

18 November 2010 Ref: NPCDSP0002 - Published by Neapolitan England in 2009 - Promo use only not for resale
Support: CD 12 cm
Titles: punk spirit (radio edit) - Punk Spirit (Album Version) - Punk Spirit (Instrumental)

It is used to record that the bins at 10 pence: to bet pennies on disks that strangers would never buy on other occasions. Wavves I saw pass the name, The Wave Pictures I know a little, while Wave Machines I do not know anything but the cover and the title is catchy, so ...
Wave Machines is a band from Liverpool and Punk spirit is her fourth single, released in 2009 a few weeks after their first album (the only date), Wave if you're really There .
Apparently, the first titles were quite electro, but this one at all. We're in a pop-rock record of good quality, with the scale, a hook in "Ah ah ah ah ah" on the chorus, which is not frowned upon: "Where is my mind punk when I need? .
This CD adds to my now long list of promo CD in unique trade: In this intermediate phase of launch of online sales, Punk spirit is released for download in 45 rounds (with a cover slightly different and another song on side B) but This CD was produced solely for the press and professionals, and AFAIK is the only place where you can find the instrumental version of Punk spirit.

Three other tracks on the album are listening to Sourdoreille .

DANNY STEWART : Rêveries hawaïennes


Acquired at the show at any of Millésium in Epernay January 16, 2011
Ref: CVL. 55,013 - Edited by Coral in France circa 1957
Support: 33 tours 25 cm
8 tracks

A beautiful Sunday in winter, cold, dry and very clear, during a first exit off the year fishing finds recordings.
I was not super optimistic because I knew what to expect at Millésium: a handful of booths outside and twenty others in the room, those flea market, expensive and with little discs. And indeed, only two out of the stands had a few records that could interest me. I found this disc in the first two, but this beautiful piece enough for me. In addition, I had the good surprise to hear me announce a unique price of 1 € for all the hard stand, which in this context to 25 cm in superb condition was totally unexpected and almost correct.
So I caught this beautiful goldfish! The cover is a lot to the charm of this disc. It is signed Max Dufour. He made sure many others, including several for Benny to see in Rock Love Rock 'n' roll .
Danny Stewart was born in Hawaii. Stewart, it's weird for a Hawaiian, but it explained very well because he finds that his father was Irish-écosso. Danny is also known under the name Kalauawa.
addition to the texts on the back of his records, books The Hawaiian Steel Guitar and Its Great Hawaiian musican Lorene Ruymar gives us information on his biography: he was born in Honolulu and he left Hawaii in 1929 to accompany a performance by Johnny Noble. He moved to California where he worked extensively in film and radio. He recorded with Alfred Apaka George Kainapau and Bing Crosby. He returned to Hawaii in 1960 to host a radio show and he died there in 1962.
Danny Stewart was considered at the time as a great steel guitar from the Hawaiian, but it seems forgotten now. I suspect that none of the albums released under his name has never been reissued on CD.
These records, he has obviously made towards the end of his career in America in the 1950s. He sings on some, but not on the Hawaiian Reveries, which are entirely instrumental. Given the pedigree of
man, we're not surprised to discover a very clean record, with American, not particularly "roots", tending towards the easy listening. The tempo, marked by the double bass is generally slow, and instrumentation makes great use of steel guitar, effectively supported by the electric guitar and a little ukulele.
The directory is in keeping. It consists of popular tunes of the first third of the twentieth century ( Shine on harvest moon , By the Light of the Silvery Moon , Moonlight and roses , Among My Souvenirs , When Day Is Done ) and songs from Hollywood films whose framework the exotic Hawaii ( My isle of golden dreams , film Lake Placid Serenade and Ka-lu-a , the love song of the film Bird of Paradise ). Pagan Love Song the link between the two since it was originally a hit in 1929 that inspired a Hollywood film of the same title in 1950.

Love Money 2 Full Episodes

OUI OUI : Ma maison


Acquired probably Little Shop Primitive Reims in 1990
Ref: 607 101 WMD - Edited by Justine in France in 1990
Support: 45 laps 17 cm
Titles: My home (New formula, Radio Edit) - / - Bolide

This week I watched with pleasure Be Kind Rewind , the film by Michel Gondry, the former drummer and producer of videos Yes Yes. Suddenly, I was determined to do what I had long planned : Out one disk group to talk about here.
If I bought his release in 1989 Everyone everyone , the debut album Yes Yes I bitterly regret not to have done the same for the stunning Formidable in 1992. Especially since there are surely almost ten years now, I replaced my cassette copy of the album with a CD-R (probably through Old Thorax with two bonus tracks on this single) that, like many of my first burned CDs, it almost does not pass anymore!
Like what, a good old 45s well maintained, if we kept a plate in running, is sometimes more reliable. This applies to My house, a song that was originally included on each everyone . This new formula has been recorded specially for this single the following year in 1990. My house
is a perfect example of the style Yes Yes. Musically, there often as a key new wave and, given the subject matter and the apparent indifference, I think particularly Nits first three albums, Tent at Work .
In the lyrics, I especially like the phrase " Promiscuity cheese smells!
Bolide , B side is an instrumental that was not on the album (There's a dub version on the maxi CD), but it's still a long-standing group title because Michel Gondry had achieved in 1988 an animated film on a first version of Bolide , with more guitar. It reminds me rather The Killers The Honeymoon , particularly J4 in its remix version Subtitled .
With a name like that (I do not know how the owners of the brand character of Enid Blyton have missed that) and its false air of naive, Yes Yes had to be daunting one. They were not helped by the fact that the labels that have released their albums have both put the key under the door shortly after the release of records. Etienne Charry
, guitarist, singer and songwriter of the group, continues its eclectic and original musical path, off the beaten track of the disc, shows illustrations sound through exhibitions of art music.
On its website, adjusting the radio on Yes Yes can find full info about the group, as well as unreleased and video clips. We learn in passing that several projects emerged from the records, long out of print, were unsuccessful. Injury, especially a proposed anthology could have been called Yes Yes are the World!

JOHNNY KIDD AND THE PIRATES : Shakin' all over


Acquired at Age Concern in Dover December 29, 2010
Ref: POP 753 - Published by His Master's Voice in England in 1960
Support: 45 laps 17 cm
Titles: Shakin 'All Over - / - Yes Sir, That's My Baby

In the batch of discs purchased that day at Age Concern, here are definitely my best hoe, Lonnie Donegan with .
Shakin 'All Over is a classic rock song, echoed by almost everyone, Vince Taylor, The Who, but I realize that before buying the 45 laps I had this version original disc in any home and I knew her very badly.
Like many I believe, I too tend to start the history of British rock with the Beatles and the Stones, but before them was particularly Cliff Richard and The Shadows, Vince Taylor and Johnny Kidd and the Pirates , who reached the top of the charts in 1960 with this Shakin 'All Over , their fourth single. The
May 13, 1960, the day of recording this album, the label had planned to register the group as side A Yes Sir, That's My Baby an American popular song from 1925, taken dozens times and in all styles, including, it is surely the only point of intersection of their discographies, by Georges Jouvin . The group had already recorded a version of this song a year earlier, wilder apparently that was not published. She might have remained completely new if it had not been put in place thereof in a reissue of the 45 laps in 1976.
In any case, as there Yes Sir, That's My Baby rock is a nice, very poppy, not far in the spirit of Buddy Holly . It would surely have had some success, but eventually she found herself relegated to the B side of 45s. Why? Because the label had left the group's second choice title, the day before recording, Johnny Kidd had written in a few minutes a new song, Shakin 'All Over . The song has been canned with more than two times, with just a guitar overdub with a lighter using improvised bottleneck. The guitar solo on this classic is held by Joe Moretti , who was not a permanent member of the Pirates (but he also plays on the next single, Restless). This name is unknown to non-specialists, but the guy has quite a pedigree. This is particularly he who, in 1959, supplied the guitar solo Brand New Cadillac Vince Taylor ! On its website, Joe Moretti tells of how delusional and exciting meeting with Johnny Kidd and the registration of Shakin 'All Over .
In my ears, who took things the wrong way from the years 1980, Shakin 'All Over sounds like a concentrate of all the rockabilly of the 1950s, rockabilly crazy revered and unearthed by Cramps, one with the guitar so wild Link Wray. If
Brand new cadillac has sold just at the time, especially as the BBC, where advertising is prohibited, refused to broadcast it, Shakin 'All Over was a real success in 1960 (if it was not sold many copies, it was very unlikely that I unearthed one in a store of the English province fifty years later).
Overseas, the song was a tube in 1965, after a recovery by Chad Allan / The Guess Who. This probably explains why Johnny Kidd recorded this year a new version, Shakin'all over '65, which gives pride to the organ. But Johnny did not take much longer for his classic, died the year since esy following a car accident.

FAMILY FODDER : Classical music


Offered by Alig Fodder by correspondence in December 2010
Ref: CON147 - Published by State51 The Conspiracy in England in 2010
Support: CD 12 cm


11 titles in 2008, a group appointed Idol Fodder mini-album came out Babytalk . This limited edition disc, released confidentially to the United States, was part a collection entitled Pregnancy (Pregnancy ).
Pregnancy has been a bit long, but Idol Fodder has finally delivered late 2010 an album completely successful, Classical music, the first exit disk State51 The Conspiracy , attributed this time to Family Fodder , the name used most often by Alig Fodder and his associates since 1979.
The group name is different but it's the same project matured. First, the basic training is the same at Alig and Darlin Singh-Kaul (being a family affair, it is noted that the girl Darlin Dominique Levillain, the singer greatest hits Family Fodder). And most importantly, almost all major titles Babytalk are repeated here: The onliest thing , Strangest games, Death and the Maiden Analyze and my life? , renamed Be more wise . Not missing, and that's a shame that the excellent Infamy , perhaps because the title was first released in Germany on a 45 Alig Fodder assigned.
because I hope you follow the genealogy of this disc is decidedly complicated. There is indeed fifth title Classical music we already knew, the equally excellent Greed and fear . On Babytalk , we found a short instrumental version entitled Full term, but among the unpublished compilation More great hits , it is the same version that was, except that s 'Hippy chick called !
But forget all that heavy a little family history, especially since most of those who will listen to Classical music discover such securities at that time. What matters most is that this album is a coherent project, resulting from recording sessions in Devon with a stable formation. From lullaby
Primeval pony to rhyme Do Do What You Want To Do , the first part of the disc is marked by a great calm and great serenity. Even Whatever Happened to David Ze? and Ancestor's feet, the two titles inspired openly highlife or African rumba, slow and everything seems fluffy (and this is not a criticism).
There are also parts and more psychedelic removed. Greed and fear , which opens with a creaking door and includes a kitchen sink (which may be the jacket art), includes a guitar part that reminds me Playing golf, the first 45 laps of Family Fodder. In the words of Do not get me high, Alig has even been helped by Ian Hill, a former member of the group at the time of the first album including Monkey banana kitchen . The baby
Fodder grew well. More than thirty years, he kept all his qualities and his inventiveness and has become a contemporary classic. It's not too late to make his acquaintance, as one can expect a rare event in 2011: the announcement of Family Fodder Concert ...

Classical music is particularly sale on the official website of Family Fodder .

THE JASMINE MINKS : Sunset


Offered by Creation Records in late 1986 or early 1987
Offered by the Primitive Radio Big Primitive Sound System at the Apart Coffee Reims January 8, 2011
Ref: CRE LP 013 - Published by Creation England in 1987
Support: 33 laps 30 cm


11 tracks is a long story, but it is indeed a single copy of this disc that I got offered twice .. . twenty-four years apart!
I organized a mini-tour with two concerts in France for Jasmine Minks in March 1987. The first was on March 6 Chez Paulette at Toul and the second the next day at the MJC Claudel, Reims. In between, we stopped at Nancy for a session in the studios of Radio France and we learned the catastrophe of the Herald of Free Enterprise in Zeebrugge (It seems to me that traveling by Minks Calais this weekend there but it was still shaken everyone).
I do not know if Creation gave me one or more copies of this disc to promote the tour, still is it that I found myself giving my own copy Primitive Radio because I had none else. The disk was then integrated disco radio and stayed there until yesterday. I have often thought since, as Sunset, the title track of this compilation has been published on this disc, so it failed in my collection of Jasmine Minks all this time.
Just yesterday, The Primitive organized a Big Sound System at the Apart Coffee with a scholarship to the discs, including an attempt to shore up the finances of the association. I expected to find as usual records donated or deposited by supporters of the radio, but I was surprised to discover that, for the second time (I missed the first because I was holiday), the radio also sold his own collection of vinyl records.
Proportionately, there remained many records, but I had still had a few shots to the heart in rediscovering the best record I really went on the air, as Do not let's start , the maxi They Might Be Giants , which still bore the words "The darling of Ketchup" and has also provided one of the signs of my show Vivonzeureux! .
I bought a small pack of discs, you will have the opportunity to speak, but when I came across Sunset , even with the cover on the pad Premature Surrender of the association up to organize the concerts, I've made the offer, since in this case it was more of a homecoming.


no question that I let the Jasmine Minks I just get even for a photo anthology of the last five presidents Primitive Radio. Boris is laughing the loudest and is surely the most courageous because he has accepted this responsibility in a difficult period.

The Jasmine Minks were really a group important in the early years Creation. With their first 45 Think! early 1984, they were the first band signed outside of the band of friends of the founders of the label. They were also the first to release an album on Creation, the six titles One Two Three Four Five Six Seven, all good preachers go to heaven in September 1984. And with this Sunset , they were also the first by 1986 to release a compilation of their recordings Creation.
I do not know what motivated the release of this compilation after only two albums. The most plausible it was to mark the occasion and find a second wind after the departure of Adam Sanderson, one of two singers-songwriters-guitarists.
Anyway, if it were to sell records, it was a bad start with a pocket as ugly and missed! There is nothing great, but I much prefer the back with a photo Coupon Minks smiling.
It is stated in the credits that the titles were selected by Alan McGee himself. Okay, but we can not say that Alan was too complicated life, since the album offers, in chronological order, sides A and B of the four 45s released earlier by the Jasmine Minks, with intercalated front-end for the A title of the first album, the excellent Ghost of a young man , and unpublished Sunset (Quite in line with the group's productions at the time, with voices of both singers and choirs and "La la la " on the chorus that are reminiscent Television Personalities . It's still a bit below the other titles of the group and we understand that title has been excluded from previous releases.), and for the B title for the second album, Forces Network (which was also, in another version, B-side of the maxi Cold Heart).
But after all, why make life difficult since there are only good here, with classic Think! and Where the traffic goes , my darling What's happening and superb Cold Heart. B-sides are the same barrel, including the energetic World's No. up with the refrain "The world's No. place for a romantic today.

This disc has never been reissued but there are eight of the eleven tracks on the compilation date of the last group, The revenge of ... The Jasmine Minks . The CD has yet to find (Charlie Dontsurf bought it a few months ago) but it is no longer in the catalog of Red Cherry, which distributes more Revol. For cons, the album is still available for download.

Sample Proposal For A Work Out Facility

THE FABULOUS SOFT CELL : Bedsitter


Acquired from Indoor Market in Canterbury 28 December 2010
Ref: BZS 6 - Edited by Some Bizarre in England in 1981
Support: 45s 17cm
Titles: Bedsitter - / - Facility Girls

Oh, they pranksters are the English with their peculiar logic. I knew that among them, the holiday of Christmas is followed by the holiday of Boxing Day, but I had not imagined that this year, both days fall on a weekend, they would be followed by a Bank Holiday Monday and a Bank Holiday Tuesday.
Fortunately for me in this particular case, but unfortunately in a broader perspective, the Liberal England deregulated and the twenty-first century, where some stores are open all day Sunday and hypermarkets 7 days on 7 and 24 to 24, most buses were operating and more than half the stores were open on that Tuesday, especially in Canterbury , a city used to welcome tourists.
So even if several charity shops were closed, I could do some shopping, especially at this record store, Indoor Market, which had several boxes of 45 rounds at 50 pence albums and even £ 1, I n ' have not taken the time to watch all.
I will certainly have the opportunity to return, but Soft Cell for me it and it will remain primarily the maxi Tainted love with the sequence with Where Did Our Love Go then raging in booms and Persuasion opposite B. I even went to buy the maxi The soul inside to recovery, always disappointing to lose Born to B side and I got a few things here and there by the way since then, but looking their discography, I realize that there are only two songs that I really retain more Tainted love, the two singles that followed, Bedsitter and Say hello, wave goodbye.
latter, I did not always. Bedsitter , I already had on the first album, but a day of scarcity as it is in good condition and with an unprecedented B-side, I finally take the plunge and buy it.
Jon Savage in an article on Bedsitter for Guardian, Sparks speaks about Soft Cell. In their new wave generation, the formula duet with a singer and instrumentalist deleted exuberant I would rather think Suicide , even if musically the two groups have nothing to do, Soft Cell is more akin to their colleagues promoting English Depeche Mode. I'd still also a parallel with Associates, also based in a duet with a musician and a singer diva dark rather camp.
Bedsitter tells the story of a bored guy alone in his room sublet a Sunday after leaving the previous day. To stay in England, but from Leeds, the home city of Soft Cell, Manchester, one could say that this song, very dark in tone from the early 80's, anticipates a cocktail of unlikely New Order dancing to the next student that explodes in box, and Smiths self-pity, for the next " Oh, I'm miserable now " the same the next day ("Waiting for a visitor , though no one knows I'm here I'm waiting (...) for something, I'm only passing time ). A
like a This Is The Day of The The is not really gay and it looks the navel, but thirty years after that always pleases me.
In style, Facility girl, I do not know anything and that is the portrait of a secretary is not all bad either.
