Itās the Country game so when we get smashed I might just take Hank Jnrās advice.
Hell, I might as well get started early.
George Benson, Wes Montgomeryās soul child, doing āTake 5ā with its quirky 5/4. George sounded good even when he was āselling outā but this piece in the midst of the sell out period is a reminder of just how extraordinarily wonderful he was. Personally Iād rather listen to George in form than Metheny, AND I love Metheny.
Recently gotten into vinyl and pretty chuffed to own all of Dire Straits studio albums as of today.
Favourite tracks would have to be:
Why Worry
Once Upon a Time in the West
Always liked āNewsā off Comminique, but just a fantastic record from go to whoa.
Finally got another turntable after not having one for 15 years. Kept about 40 favorite LPs that havenāt seen light for longer than that. So far dragged out Santanaās 3rd album, SRV Couldnāt Stand the Weather, Taj Mahal Collection. Surprised thereās so few scratches considering their historyā¦
This is a very nice song.
new āsupergroupā (members of Slowdive, Editors, Mogwai)
Movieās out and the critics are calling it ā ā ā ā but it does include a version of this song.
dunno if its fantastic in its own right, or if its just so bad its good
Get free
Lean on
Be together
Got Vitalogy playing (quiet night at work) and Iām always blown away by how good this album is, particularly if I havenāt listened to it for a while.
Last Exit, Spin the Black Circle, Not for You Tremor Christ, Nothingman - now thats how you start an album!
Has that got better man on it too
Vitalogy is a very good album.
Hasnāt a blitzer got the old medical book?
But enough of that, I need you guys to tell me the name of a song.
Iām very confident you can.
Soā¦early eighties British ska-pop-punkā¦I think.
Sort of Jam/Madness/Clash but I donāt think itās any of those.
And all I have is a backing vocal, and I think itās āmurder each otherā. Definitely something each other.
Sung quickly in a shouty but still tuneful way in between the lead vocalists lines.
Please tell me what it is, so I can stop it recurring in my head and also play the actual song very loud.
Yeah Iāve got it but it was on a shelf about 500 cm away. Couldnāt be bothered.
I saw their tour in 94 for that album. It was the one at the music bowl that got broken into by about 5000 or so people.
Cool story me.
Itās ābully each other.ā
I think Iāll find it now I know thatā¦
Edit: oopsā¦Jamie T - If You Got The Money
Soā¦not really 80s ska punk at allā¦

Vitalogy probably the best album PJ ever did, IMO.
Is the song youāre thinking of āSomebody Got Murderedā by The Clash ?.
Chorus is a shouty:
āSomebody got murdered
Somebodyās dead foreverā
āThe Specialsā also did a more āskaā version of it.
Itās not,but Iām going to listen to the Specials version now, ta.
Iāve wanted to post the studio version of āEpicā by Jonathan Zwartz from his āThe Seaā album for years but this is the first time Iāve found it on You Tube (I posted a live version a while back but this is the one I love). This tune saved my sanity so many times at work I can never repay it enough. When the ā ā ā ā went down Iād find some quiet space and just lose myself in its Brazilian flavour. The recording quality is pristine and its 5/4 lilt was originally designed to lull Zwartzās newborn to sleep. The band are a stellar Oz lineup and I think it was the best selling Oz Jazz album of 2010 and 2011.
Definitely my favourite Oz produced track of relatively recent times. Musical bliss.
