Just listening to 'Sweet Talk' on Radio 2 now...it sounds immense. I'm blown away.

[LUFC_SPACEMAN]

my mates keep talking, I wish they'd fuck off

for those who've heard the album version, is the treatment of it very similar to what was just played on the radio?
thanks

It was fucking great!

[BzaInSpace]

Great show - I love the Country Elvis take of 'Sweet Talk', it sounded fantastic and the singers were amazing! Some beautiful touches in there.

And Ro, I would say that version of 'Sitting on fire' is a bit more of a big-band thing than the album. Maybe.

Great line when Mark Radcliffe asked when the album was out...

J: "No idea"

[bcastle21]

who recorded??

thanks, Bza.. it wasn't what I expected at all.
It was nice to be surprised.

I'll check it out. Just got two pool boxes for the bowl show. Row 7 center, some ticketmaster fluke

[Jasonsmith]

I've got mp3s of the songs, unfortunately only from the Radio Player stream, so not very high fidelity. I hope someone hooked up their digital radio. You can listen to the whole show for another 6 days or so here. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/radcliffemaconie/ Oh, and the new bass player's name is Sam. Only 5 days until Cambridge! I'm dying to know what they'll play from the back catalogue, LAGWAFIS, Feel So Sad, and Lay Back in the Sun would all sound fantastic with the new setup (and make me one of the happiest people on the planet).

[rameses]

In case anyone missed it, HERE are the session tracks.

I've chopped out all the non-Spz stuff but left in the banter between J and Mark & Stuart, from which we learn amongst other things J's never been inspired to write a song about rawlplugs.

Enjoy.

Oh and if your interested it was recorded over t'internet using Total Recorder as a huge mp3 and then chopped up using iTunes. Not very elegant but dead easy. If anyone wants the full show I can upload that too, though you can of course just listen again via the BBC website.

A massive thankyou for recording and sharing this!!

[simonkeeping]

Yeah thanks for taking the time to upload. cheers muchly!

[rameses]

No problem. I've downloaded stuff from other board members so thought it only fair to share.

I have noticed that the recordings are a bit quiet so I might try and boost the volume and upload them again if anyone wants.

I've been thinking precisely the same thing about Lay Back In The Sun the last few days, I think it would be perfect for the new lineup and would make me very happy.

I'm very intrigued about what they are gonna play- with no thighpaulsandra, no drones. No Electric Mainline?

[ro]

rameses, you are a prince, thank you.
(or should I say Pharaoh )

I also would love to see the long awaired return of Lay Back In The Sun. I wouldn't give up on Electric Mainline as, along with Take Your Time and Shine A Light, this seems to be one of the "Untouchables" in the Electric Spiritualized set list.

[JPB]

If you have the time and are willing to re-post with increased loudness I'll be very grateful. And if you are going to the Koko gig I'll even buy you a beer!
