I've never heard of this band before today - that track is simply jaw dropping in its complexity and shape-shifting throughout the song - yet it's also got a massive groove and is absolutely the tightest thing. I've listened to it about 10 times today and I keep discovering more secrets. Good detective work Frank Blank, I'll check this gig out. 1 Quote
songofthewind Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 Yep, very good, grooves like a mutha! Drummer played with AWB, and the guitar player sounds a wee bit Wayne Krantz before he really takes off. Most excellent beat combo. Quote
Graham Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 Steve Brodsky and Marissa Nadler have just released two covers from when they did their Droneflowet collaboration earlier this year - Phil Collins Something In The Air Tonight and Extreme's More Than Words. Really like them, particularly the Phil Collins one Quote

paul_5 Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 Been revisiting Jamiroquai’s ‘Energency on planet Earth’ this week with Stuart Zender and Andrew Levy sharing bass duties. Awesome, awesome stuff. 1 Quote
Stub Mandrel Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 Not listening yet... but I just paid £46(!!!) for the limited Edition Black Sabbath Live at Hammersmith Odeon CD on eBay. I was there on Dec 31 1981, the first of the three gigs (also 1,2 Jan 82) combined to make the CD. The first concert I saw at Hammersmith Odeon, afterwards with my g/f we went to Trafalgar Square and we missed the last tube back to Chessington. Do have some sympathy for the guy who bidded it up to £45 from 50p... but not a lot 🙂 Quote
grandad Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 Just listened to 'Rule The World' by Take That. I have to work out a suitable bass line for an instrumental and also a vocal version for my quartet of sax, trumpet, rhythm & bass. The original seems very well produced and multi-layered and not much help as our arrangement will be very different obviously. This happens with a lot of tunes we do. 1 Quote
mikel Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Run with the Fox by Chris Squire on radio 2 this morning. Great song. That bass sound still sends shivers down my spine. RIP Chris. 1 Quote
Barking Spiders Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 any of you peeps partial to a bit of John Scofield's Uberjam stuff? , very funky jazz-blues-rock - and a bit of kitchen sink . Here's the first track of the third Uberjam Deux platter. Guy called Adam Hess laying down some bubbling low end throughout the album and locks in perfectly with top drum work Quote
bartelby Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 As I posted, on Facebook, a photo of a couple of Watership Down related badges. A mate suggested listening to Fall of Efrafa. So I am... Quote
4000 Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) Level 42 live at Brixton 1983. Really enjoying it. I really liked the double-Gould version of the band. Edited December 10, 2019 by 4000 Quote
odysseus Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 A couple of weeks ago I had a very fortuitous suggestion from my tablet while surfing youtube at some ungodly hour before work. I stumbled across a Polish band called Riverside. This will be old news to many, I'm sure. However, I found them to be right up my street... if I had to liken them to other bands, I would say that it's like Tool, Porcupine Tree and Pink Floyd had a baby. That might not all be apparent from one track, but there is a great whole gig to be had if anyone is interested. Suffice it to say, I've ordered their back catalogue for myself.... 1 Quote

Not a band I’d like to go on after as they manage to get the coldest audiences in a big fat groove within a few bars. Brilliant band. 2 Quote

However I have a South Coast Samsara insider so I’ll give you a heads up if I hear anything Sir. 1 Quote
