I was about to say I couldn't find anything about that on the internet. Could have saved myself some time if I had noticed at first that that is a link. Maybe the words in their name are too common or something...
I'm trying to work out whether "Taurig" is a Fall cover or not...I mean it's not a straight cover, it would be more like a re-write...it's different, including the words, but they're both called "Taurig," and they're both motorik on mostly one chord. Of course motorik is pretty general...either inspired by or coincidence, it's an anagram for "guitar" and could have been arrived at independently.
Let the people decide: Actually the Fall one has a chord change here and there, this one doesn't so far...
Hmm...and they have one called "W.B. in Reverse," and the Fall have one called "W.B."...anyway this thread is reminding me I'm supposed to be editing the Annotated Fall tonight....
The Fall, New Facts Emerge and various. Based on the timestamp above, I've just spent over 4 hours editing and updating my #&*! site...that's actually kind of short considering how many comments are still sitting in my inbox waiting to be considered.
Townes Van Zandt - Nashville sessions. Recorded in 1973, but wasn't released until '93. Happy Irish day. Guinness and Magners in the fridge waiting...
Just received my new sealed copy of this CD in the mail today! Skaldowie – Listy Śpiewające KAMCD 15 (no barcode) Kameleon Records 2012 Skaldowie, ( pron.- skahl-dahv-yeh) are a rock group from Cracow, Poland that were very popular in their homeland and elsewhere in eastern Europe particularly from the 1960s through the 1980s. Highly proficient musicians with degrees in formal academic training, many of their compositions are influenced by regional folk traditions from the area of Podhale. Skaldowie made a significant impact in 1972 on their groundbreaking album 'Krywań, Krywań ', infusing motifs from the Goral music of Podhale . The album's 18-minute title track is an amalgam of rock, folk, and classical music with quotations from works by J.S. Bach, Alexander Borodin, Modest Mussorgsky, and Gioachino Rossini, among others. The lyrics (credited as a folk song) are from the 1903 folkloric poem "Kriváň, High Kriváň! (Krywaniu, Krywaniu wysoki!)" by Kazimierz Przerwa-Tetmajer. Founded by brothers Andrzej and Jacek Zieliński in 1965, they received numerous national awards between 1966 and 1980 and are one of the most popular musical groups of their generation in Poland. Surviving through various personnel changes over the years and a five-year hiatus in the late 80s, as of 2010, the brothers Zieliński have released a total of 19 albums. This CD is a 27- track retrospective of their best works.
Garcia could play Chuck Berry style rock n roll. It may seem simple but either you have it or you don't. Keith Richards had it in spades. Here he is with Jerry Lee. Love it!
Now trying to come to terms with numerous things I've noted to myself to listen to. A band with a great sound--they sound like the late 60s-early 70s Dead in fact--but maybe without too many actual songs called Mountain Bus. A free jazz album by Spontaneous Music Ensemble that @Dahabenzapple probably put me onto, Karyobin. A "post-rock" outfit named Lotto with an album called VV that I instinctively just want to move past, but it in fact sounds pretty good. And a prog band called Sensations Fix.
