Does anyone else think that even having this discussion is kinda ridiculous? I mean, we're talking about the Velvet Underground here. it is ridiculous, a bit like asking: who loves the sun ? there is quite a bit of VU footage out there. I just got A Symphony Of Sound shot by Andy Warhol in 1966 or ...

Anyone listened to the Half-alive album by suicide? Worth getting? it's definately worth getting if you like the first album. The sound is pretty good, mine's on clear vinyl so the CD should sound more than ok. I haven't played it for years but from what I remember I would recomend it for sure. The...

Revolutionary Corps of Teenage Jesus (whose Frankie Teardrop remix is ear-bleedingly good). I heard John Peel play a song which was a Suicide cover/remix in the mid 90's. I'm wondering if this is it but I'm pretty sure the song he played wasn't Frankie Teardrop. I only heard it once and it was awes...

ORBITAL, maybe you should get the wax out of your ears and give it a proper listen.... How anybody can call Ghost Rider, Rocket U.S.A., Cheree, Frankie Teardrop et al BORING is beyond me !

I just phoned The Water Rats and asked about returns, no joy... :( apparently it's been sold out for weeks, I bought Chutes Too Narrow yesterday and it's by far the best shit I've heard in a long time.

I can't copy them, as I don't have a 2nd video recorder or TV-in on my computer. I'm willing to send them to someone who can transfer them, but I would want them back cos there's lots of other stuff on them too....

thanks dude, if I had the cash I would.......

what's the track listing?

isn't 'everything' gonna be on the DVD ??

if it is the one with the vid to the "where I stand is only 3 miles from Space" song and Bobby Gillespie narrating I taped it on VHS......if someone wants to transfer it to mpeg/divX give us a shout. The documentary is about 20 minutes long, I've also got the 2nd and 3rd Glastonbury perfor...

I wonder if there are any promo's sitting around gathering dust..................

on the old forum, Sonic said someting along the lines of this release was of questionable legality and he could rip the cd........

what's the deal, I can't find it in Tower or Virgin ??

mbv

when is it coming out again?

mbv

this is a great recording, Blindsummit! and a fantastic gig too.
I'm listenining to Walkin' with Jesus and it's 'hairs on the back of the neck' time....

What equipment did you use to record it? I'd like to torrent it on SharingTheGroove and that info would be cool.....

cheers.

Even their trademark "primitivism" is pretty lazy-sounding for 1969, given that the Troggs had been doing it winkingly as early as '64. you can 'blame' that on John Cale then, I'm certain they sounded fucking primitive when they were writing and jamming the songs in a garage. So that leav...

the so called 'Real Complete Works' (ahem, nice title btw) contains at least a dozen or more copyrighted songs.

The picture shown on Amazon for the cover is awful but I don't believe it was ever intended by the author for the finished product to look like this. It's obviously been chosen with the word 'sales' in mind: put Jason on the cover and try and persuade Spiritualized fans that the book is centred aro...

I thought 'Lord, Can You Hear Me?' sounded great on LICD, I'm with you on 'So Hot' though, spz version sounds shit live. when did S3 do 'All of My Tears'??

I'm having a similar problem on my Technics SL-150, it only started the other day. It slows down and then speeds up again throughout the record. maybe it needs oiling? or dusting?

I saw them at the ULU in london, in 91 or 92. it was just before Primal Scream's Come Together came out cos I remember talking to Bobby and when he wasn't sucking the whizz from his fingernails he was telling us how about the new single. I can't remeber a thing about the Valentine's though, too drun...

er, isn't ths copyright material?

this is the title of the CD, Savage Pencil Presents Angel Dust: Music For Movie Bikers (Blast First).
it's a comp of fuzzed out biker choons. it's got Blues Theme on it by David Allan from the classic biker flick Wild Angels w/Peter Fonda. you can probably still get it on CD. happy hunting!

hmmm...I remember getting some fish & finger pie the day I got 'Loveless'...generally these days the only 'soundtrack' might tend to be the shipping forecast (Fisher, Dogger, German Bight slowly rising, good), Test Match Special (afternoon action - with breaks for tea and 'bad light'), or the A...

But when people attack the name of Goodchild (mind you, being called 'Ian Goodprick' was curiously flattering, and entirely apropos)...hell, that's going too far. And to say that the name 'reeks of pomposity' that's taking things even further than too far. [BTW: My surname dates back to the 12th Ce...

thanks for the 'head's up' Ian, now how do I set the video again?

mbv

Oh my! maybe he was felling a bit peckish and couldn't be arsed to walk down the shops? those Toffee Crisps are tasty tho'.

mbv

I can't see a Floyd connection with 'Out of Sight' ?? That's one of my favourite spz choons, the lyrics alone are enough for me but that tune just blows. and the vid with sthe Spaceman up the volcano is fuckin' cool too, my 2 cents.

I only got into downloading shn's and flac's a couple of months ago through sharingthegroove. when I first found that site, I just thought it was a bunch of jam bands and shit, then I dug a little deeper, found an early Cure gig and luckily I just got cable so I could download it. it took a few hour...

My version of Sway is written by Pierce/Refoy. Ok, Why Don't You Smile Now? was released by The All-Night Workers, recorded in 1965, Reed and Cale's first time recording together.

The Stones' Shine a Light features the chords F, C, G in sequence during the chorus. Spiritualized's version goes F, C, G. :) Aside from that I don't think there's much connection...
