The Panics--Kid, You're a Dreamer. I promise to turn my attention back to "Cruel Guards" soon. Spence, I read your post some hours ago when I decided to go online in a bout of insomnia ("the wines were too various") and then clicked on Meadow of Love in my iTunes library. With your smokey rooftop suggestion it's inevitable that the scenes of Macclesfield from "Control" played on my mental screen. | ||

Is there a ghost in my house - Band of horses 4 fumbles and no "Funeral"..still not a bad album though! | ||
| spence Member Username: Spence Post Number: 1907 Registered: 05-2005 |
Battles - unknown Saw them play a tune last night, very good. Like some fu*ked up OMD track from 1979, mixing it with some of Alan Vega's Suicide to give you this fusion that is undescribable. Look like a band from 1987 | ||
| kevin Member Username: Kevin Post Number: 1920 Registered: 05-2005 |
Spence, the Battles tune is called Atlas, and if you like that one you would probably like the album its from called Mirrors. | ||
| spence Member Username: Spence Post Number: 1909 Registered: 05-2005 |
They piss over Klaxons, but not the Klaxon 5!!! Gonna get the album Kev, cheers, gotta see em live too. | ||

Randy, re PF thing, you on the money with the Macclesfield thing!!! I had an instrumental I worked out that was inspired by the fime Kes. If you wannna hear it... http://www.myspace.com/spenceroberts called 1975 in England. Kes was made in '69 though, actually there's my fave clip of Brian Glover and the PE football match on this page too. | ||

Robert Plant, Alison Krauss - Killing The Blues. Gram and Emmylou updated for 2007, the album its from, which is also great, is the first time I have ever listened to anything Robert Plant has recorded of my own volition | ||

Upside Down - Diana Ross Very high up on the list of the Chic Organization's inexhaustible grooves. | ||

Long Cool Woman - The Hollies "Peer upon a ply Baby, yilba my nye My temper just started to rise." I think we can all get something from those words... | ||
| Randy Adams Member Username: Randy_adams Post Number: 1433 Registered: 03-2005 |
Very funny Allen! Clarke's vocals on that must be some of the best rock 'n roll mumbling around, not helped by the aggressive slap-back reverb. I can help slightly; I think the last line is "my temperature started to rise." | ||
| Catherine Vaughan Member Username: Catherine Post Number: 361 Registered: 05-2005 |
I'd been contemplating those words all day, and couldn't decide whether they were profoundly deep, or merely that they were deeply profound (which of course is far less wonderful than profoundly deep!) Now, because of Randy's lyrical clarification, I've got to start all over again. This could take days!! | ||

Ultravox - Quiet Men | ||
| Allen Belz Member Username: Abpositive Post Number: 845 Registered: 09-2006 |
I do believe you're right, Randy...for some reason that never occurred to me, though I should have guessed, as in the situation he's describing I think that's what would happen to anyone... | ||
| Allen Belz Member Username: Abpositive Post Number: 846 Registered: 09-2006 |
What's also pretty neat is that even before I finally consulted the actual lyrics I found I could make out most of the details of the story through the (agreed, some of the best ever) mushmouthing, except I didn't realize the long cool woman was in on the sting... | ||

Art Objects - Fit of Pique | ||
| Randy Adams Member Username: Randy_adams Post Number: 1435 Registered: 03-2005 |
Oh. You read the lyrics somewhere. That's cheating. I didn't know she was in on the sting either. I assumed she was a gangster's moll. | ||

Flying Burrito Brothers - She Once Lived Here from Gram Parsons and The Flying Burrito Brothers Live At The Avon Ballroom 1969, Archives Volumne One. Sheer brilance, another one from Gram that leaves the listner close to tears. | ||

Well Randy, I guess my weary bones have tired of the chase more than 30 years after hearing the song on the first non-kiddie album I ever bought, a K-Tel compilation called "Believe In Music." (Uh, OK). | ||

Thanks Spence, will have a listen after work. | ||
| XY765 Member Username: Judge Post Number: 375 Registered: 01-2006 |
Pretty straightforward cover but nice nonetheless. Reminds me of what a superb song the original is. | ||
| spence Member Username: Spence Post Number: 1944 Registered: 05-2005 |
Yeah, I think, it is done very nicely. I actually feel influenced by the way the camera pans from person to person and the way that you don't see the whole of Jonny Greenwood in the shots. It seems to give their version validity. | ||
| Geoff Holmes Member Username: Geoff Post Number: 285 Registered: 05-2005 |
Not bad. Sensational song. Sounds as if they were playing around with playing Meat is Murder at the end. I bought the music for "Meat is Murder" when I first started playing and it has all of these unbelieveable(and nearly unplayable!) chords in it like Cmaj7+9. Nice to see that Radiohead have played something simpler without losing too much of the effect. The new album's better than "Hail to the thief" IMHO. | ||

That's one killer tune, isn't it, Allen? | ||

To say the least...or are you just referring to the sound effects in the chorus?  | ||

I'm also very fond of "Mango Pickle Down River." |
