I understand they’re pretty much recognised as the leading lights in the slime scene - and innovative blend of grime and frogspawn stylings!

I thought she had an amazing voice (she now teaches songwriting at my old university in Bath - not the posh one!). I had the first two albums but that second album was a little folky for my taste. During lockdown I checked out the last 2 albums and they were a real return to form. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicko Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 The only song I remember by Herbie Hancock is Rockit - scratchy 80s EDM. Most of his stuff (to me) is dreadful jazz. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes! AMAZING live band. I saw them at the Thekla a few years back and Miles announced that they definitely would not be doing "that f***ing Dizzy s**t" They did do Size Of A Cow though, and the live version kicks the daylights out of the recorded one in terms of energy.

Saw Miles do a solo gig in Liverpool promoting new material. One drunk constantly heckled for Size. 'for some people it will always be 19 fxxcking 91' was his response. And yes, the late Martin Gilkes was a great live drummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Don't know if it has been mentioned but I imagine non-musos would possibly know Yes by 'Owner Of A Lonely Heart'. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a non-muso masquerading as a bass player I'd say you're kinda right. I actually like that song but hate the proggy stuff. Anyway back to the OP.

Ultraviolet seemed a bit of a desperate attempt to 'move with the times' and although I applaud bands not trying to make the same record over and over the mix on Ultraviolet was awful, her voice was one of the key parts of their sound and you can barely hear her at times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must say that on the various occasions I saw AAE (both original and acoustic lineups) if Julianne was feeling nervous it didn't show, wonderful voice and great performer. Felt very happy when she replied to a comment of mine on FB recently 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
