Great Lost Tracks - An Everyday Series

Fukk research

Pop Music ... let's go...



Trashy, dumb, repetitive...

...mibbes the only real glimpse of true beauty we ever get

Or is that just me?

OK...

Died like a louse in a Russian's beard that last sub-thread

Twofers... let's go





Twofer (n) (neologism; mus) A musical item recently popular (about 9 minutes ago) on AA Therapy Group football message boards involving the pairing up of tracks which, though well-matched in terms of "groove" (ibid) and "vibe" (ribbit) may be pleasingly disparate in jong-ruh (cf "genre")

This aint really life, aint really life... say it with me... it's fun

Must've posted this about three times now

Still lovely tho

I saw this lopt in Heathrow airport one time.

They were en route to Newcastle for that night's gig.

I was on my way to Jersey to look for work.

They looked fukkin fantastic

I never spoke to em tho



Triffic track - B-side of "Sexy and 17" which is pyshe, frankly.

Male hubris ruthlessly dissected.

Lovely wee build in the bridge as a bonus.

"You must admit when you think about it that you're mineeeeeaaaaaaaaoooow!!!"

Not as good as the 7" versh but hey-ho

Miles better before she hooked up with whey-faced bedwetter Ben watt

Only IMO mind

I remember listening to this album in The Rock Garden on a Wednesday night in 1981

We were on our way to see The Cure at Tiffannys

(They were gash )

But with the watery sunlight flooding the room, the cold beer clutched in the mitt and the FA Cup final replay (Spurs vs Man City) playing with the sound down on the wee telly above the bar...


It felt like the best multi-sensual experience (sight, taste and sound) I would ever have in my life

I was nineteen

I'll be 47 in 5 days' time and here I am posting about it on a messageboard

God

That's depressing

(Cracking album tho )

The follow-up wasn't too shabby neither

I remember finding the original of this song for a colleague one time

Seems like a hundred years ago now

For the divine Mrs P - wherever she is



Jock rock - and the beat gangs on... fit like min... furry boots... crivvens.... ben the press etc etc...

Embra

But good nonetheless

Embra.

Not far from Glesca....


...not far enough



"They say that there's a thousand like you... Maybe that's true - I fell for you and nobody else
So I'm standing here so lonesome. What can i do - but learn to laugh at myself"




"I'll be your consolation prize although... I know... I'll never be man enough for you"

Fawkirk

Not quite the anus of Scotland...

It's a bit further up than that

The first band I was ever in used to share a rehearsal room with Robin & Liz in lower Newmarket Street

We always knew if they'd been in before us cos the floor was littered with ice-cream tubs from the Boulevard Cafe downstairs.

I dunno if that's at all relevant



"Now my foolish boat is leaking, broken love-lorn on your rocks"

"Didn't wine taste sweet yesterday... when the sun's comin up... it's time to hit the hay"





Y'know

I'm sure I had something much more profound than that to contribute at this point...


...but I'm fukked if I can recall what it was

If you don't have Exile on Mainstreet I urge you to stop what you're doing immediately and go and buy it. Words can't describe how good it is ...... or you can say please

Actually I only have some tracks from it, james. Wish somebody could help me get the whole album.....

(PLEASE )

I had a busy day.

I had to drop guns off at Jimmy's... to match some silencers he had.

I had to pick up my brother at the hospital and pick up some stuff for Lois.


(Betcha only Plissken and Quinny get the link between that quote and the following track )



Goes on a bit mind... you prolly heard all ya need to by about the third minute.

Incidentally...

And in ref to Jimmy's Stones post....

How comes nobody's ever mashed-up the Nilsson track in the last post with this un???



Sticky Fingers...

Like Exile....

... except as a killer single album rather than a self-indulgent double

Says the man who eschews the killer post for a self-indulgent quadruple or two....
