this was Lars Finberg who indie heads now know for Thee Oh Sees...he'd go from this band to forming The Intelligence....both were better than what he does now

they opened for the Fall and even had a label named Dragnet





Terrific album, great fun

Yeah I like that album, although not as much as the Intelligence. I had no idea of the connection between those bands + thee oh sees, that's cool

Underrated comment, but real talk, the Goo Goo Dolls wrote some solid pop tunes.

released that was recorded in 1965 - the same week as Live in Seattle.

No, it's about a dozen years old.
It's from "Wheels Must Roll."

Yeah shouldn't have had to ask, that's what it says on the cover in a language I read perfectly well: Колeса должны вращаться

Saw them live in Moscow in the summer of 2007, a very exciting live act though I never actually sat down and listened to the records, excellent as I'm sure they are.

Shame they're no longer active.

This cover of Come Together is so good

rostasi 06-23-2021 03:59 PM

from their "covers" album, Каверлар

omfg is that real? I assumed Marky was just making those lyrics up

jadis 06-24-2021 01:12 PM

That's beautiful. Easily one of my favorite Fall songs from the later years.

I've always found that the lyrics at that point in the song just didn't seem like something that would come from him -
too lucid and too self-effacing, so I, later, discovered that it came from a monthly magazine that Virgin provides on
their trains in the UK. It doesn't raise my plagiarism hackles up (unlike Dylan) because I think of it as an objet trouvé.

Marie Monday 06-24-2021 02:25 PM

sure, it's more like the Beatles' Being For the Benefit of Mr. Kite

jadis 06-24-2021 02:36 PM

One of those "how the hell was it not a worldwide smash" singles

I guess so. (I know very little about The Beatles).

Siouxsie, on the other hand, ...
"The Staircase (Mystery)" actually did chart pretty high when it came out -
even tho it didn't have the grab of something like "Hong Kong Garden" during that time.

DianneW 06-24-2021 03:05 PM

i think when the song came out it was too early for that era..come the the 90's then they made it...

rostasi 06-24-2021 03:12 PM

There was only about a 6 month difference between those singles in the late 70s and both were very popular in the clubs.
... and considering that something like 10 of about a dozen of their albums came out and charted before the 90's,
I don't know how it can be said that they were too early for their time (???)
Superstition and Rapture weren't all that great and they decided to hang it up after those.

Flip side of that single has that T-Rex song too.

That's interesting, how does someone as knowledgeable as you achieve this?

I remember being vaguely turned off by their ubiquity and canonicity, but then many of the artists I liked paid tribute to them or referenced them etc that I had to take a closer look... To find out I absolutely love The White Album for example.

What I was trying to say is "it's so catchy to me that I feel like it should've been a Police-size New Wave smash". Not that this pointless counterfactual deserves any thought, I'm bored with it already.

Yeah I wouldn't bother with "one of the quintessential New Wave groups should've been active in the 90s instead"

jadis 06-24-2021 05:32 PM

This is as good as it gets for me. I treat myself to it occasionally.
