bubinga5 Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) For me this is super cool..the funkiest super tight music, bass, drums..loads of space in the tune, which is awsome....reminds me of a certain Mark King tune.. focussed jazz funk. wonderfully crafted music from the masters. i bet Pete does this justice..

risingson Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 Yeh it funks hard this tune (Tom Barney is a superb player), although the original recording of this tune is so brutally clean, everything sounds so close in the mix. It's still cool songwriting if it's your thing but I preferred it when they were limited somewhat by technology with stuff like the Royal Scam and Aja, it did the tunes more justice IMO. Quote

yorick Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 Not particularly funky, but I like Haitian Divorce Quote
Clarky Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) Not exactly funky either but I'm quite partial to Don't Take me Alive Edited October 1, 2010 by Clarky Quote
Higgie Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 Just recently worked it all out, and transcribed it (98% sure its correct, theres a couple notes I haven't been able to figure out). Let me know if anyone wants it, I might record a vid for YouTube today Quote
YouMa Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 I love the fez! anyone know what he wont do without the fez on? whats this tune about? Quote

Perhaps. Quote
WinterMute Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 Godwhacker..! SD odd lyrics! Haitian Divorce is fab too. Quote
mxm Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 My fave is 'Time out of Mind' - live 2006 with Freddie Washington on bass - a lesson in nailing it. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeaHeXVx3CE"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeaHeXVx3CE[/url] Quote
Stingray5 Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 Rats! I was trying to reply to this thread last night when the site was down and gave up. Forgot what I was going to say, now. Think yourselves lucky!!! Quote
Bilbo Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 Its a great dvd - I have it but didn't know the tunes titles. Quote
JMT3781 Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 i tried to pull off this tune at uni... everyone had there parts nailed, but it just wouldnt work.. ended up doing josie instead.. i think its one of tose tracks thats just too full of magic lol Quote
Pete Academy Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 We did Gaslighting a few years ago. One of the hardest parts I've ever had to learn, especially the middle big riff. We only played it a few times, as people didn't seem to get off on the later album tracks. It's one of my favourite bass parts, absolute genius. Talking of Haitian Divorce, someone requested it for last night's gig in Milton Keynes, for his eight-year-old daughter, who knows all the lyrics! We've played it on and off for years, and after last night we will probably keep it in the set. Great tune. You can't beat Kid Charlemagne and Peg for funkiness. Quote
