pearl Report post Posted December 31, 2007 I'm saying nothing............t'was about the time my curly perm era *nods* I bore a passing resemblance to Noddy Holder. Now, its a hot summers day, 1976 I think, & mr p & I are climbing the steep packhorse track from Hebden Bridge to Heptonstall, the sun beating down on our backs, when I'm not in love floats up from the open window of a nearby house. Every time I hear it I'm back there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suze Report post Posted January 1, 2008 (edited) ..........don,t know if I have zero taste but bads I ain,t feelin any of those tunes, this is proper!!! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=3z_8q6HE8uI ......................just come back with a quick edit to say can,t do the link.....lol.................so you,ll all have to wonder what it was ha! All fixed... try leaving gaps between your links and your elipsis (elipsis = ...) next time! Nowt wrong with that, hen, but you are REALLY missing the point if you don't like some of the other links... you've gotta widen your repertoire (fnar fnar!) as The Goodies once said And isn't it sad that Rod Stewert did all his good stuff before he was 'Rod Stewert'??

Two more: L&P BD Good stuff, the Breeders are great, and of course , saw them at Leeds festival in '05 and they were amazing! Eagles of Death Metal aren't really metal at all but they are so much fun The singer, Jessie Hughes, cites Little Richard as his main influence and that reflects in a lot of the music, it's very camp and kitsch If we're talking rock though, another couple of Leeds Festival top-marks bands were these guys: Pearl Jam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blood makes noise - i own one SV album and that's the one on the strength of that track There was an episode of Homicide once, it was the background music during an otherwise silent scene showing Detective Munsch et al frantically tracking down all the peeps some HIV guy had deliberately infected.

I like listening to stuff I've not heard before, I just click on a link here now when I'm on the pooter! Another nostalgia trip from me now. It is 1970 bleargh, early on a beautiful summers morning. I am in my bedroom getting ready for school. I am doing my "O" levels (as they were called in prehistoric times) and I am going in for an exam.

pearl Report post Posted January 4, 2008 Mmm, nice .... I saw Lindisfarne live too Someone I'm v into at the moment: Kate Rusby Spoilt for choice on Youtube. Saw her live last year. A bit of an aberration that song with Ronan Keating though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baddad Report post Posted January 4, 2008 Talking of musicians with ASDs, Craig Nichol, the singer of the Vines was diagnosed with Aspergers a few years back. The Vines Thank you... I did a bit of searching around re david Byrne earlier, and rather than just being 'suspect aspie' he himself endorses the idea... A bit odd (no pun intended) but he feels he 'cured' himself through his musical career but that he was aspergers as a child/adolescent... Leaving aside the 'cure' vs 'coping strategies' debate, i found a lovely quote about a sign he has hanging on his workroom door: There is a small paper sign stuck to the door of Byrne's studio. The writing is childish and the sentiment anti-social: "Do not enter my personal space, you are not welcome since your presence interferes with my lifestyle and gives me a headache." Sound like anyone you know? So, another interesting personality (syd) And a good old noisy one... loooooooooove that chopped up hammond almost as much as i love LCD's Juno hoover http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gU2BBE686HY (sorry about the 'vid' the official one's a bit '15' rated) L&P BD SV - did you mention the shins at some point, then? REALLY?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
something vague Report post Posted January 4, 2008 and i forgot about that shins quote at the bottom of the page too Now if we have to talk about Syd Barrett then we have to have this one.....shame they missed the sound effects off the end but this is pure genius I didnt like that Ayesha song BD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
