What Are You Listening To Now?

[Real Sharapova]

I can't get over how good a band Buzzcocks are. Great great pop band with brilliant songs/tunes. The wife moans about Pete Shelley's voice but that's part of the sound. Fine musicians they be.

Seeing them at my local venue on 19th September, can't wait. Last saw them in 1979. Yes, I am old.

 

[Orifice]

I saw them about 10yrs ago with only Shelly & Diggle from the old days but very very good.

Currently doing 'Guitar Wolf' - Live (in 1997) outside a shop in Memphis (40 min show on YerTube)


It is a complete symbolic mess. An untidy scruffy 'gig'.

It is utterly WONDERFUL. Rock n Roll at it's very very best.


The best gig ever?

 

[Orifice]

Ok, moving on. No doubt that people will not really appreciate the guile and skill of Guitar Wolf. I'm still doing foreign (not English/USA) bands with 'Les Thugs'.

Decent rock band. Saw them once years ago and tried - very unsuccessfully - to speak to one of them. Anyhow.

Listening to:

Les Thugs - Waiting
Les Thugs - Moon over Marin
Les Thugs - Assez

Merci.

I hate that Pussycat song. It is so cheesy too.

Shakira - Hips don't lie

Yes it sucks, Cate. But it won't stick, and I won't play it again.

Talking of Shakira I was only downloading her World Cup Africa Waka song yesterday for my daughter as she uses it in a dance class she does for kids.

Someone might harm you very badly one day if you continue doing that.

Someone might harm you very badly one day if you continue doing that.

Oh feck, not again.

 

[Orifice]

Right, sorry for this. The other night I played the first albums by Eddie And The Hot Rods (great if you like your pub-rock) but today....

The first 'Faust' Lp from 1971 (and some Can, the classic 'Future Days' Lp). Krautrock from before krautrock was invented.

Play that to your kids and see what they do. Go on, I dare you.

 

[jb5000]

Ich liebe die Krautrock, obwohl Neu sind besserer.

 

[Orifice]

How modern do you go?
Freiwillige Selbstkontrolle? Leather Nun? These might not be real Krautrock bands tho.

Any suggestions jb?

 

[Blaarev]

It's "Neu!" btw. You need to get your kraut rock right.
