Metamatic Forums Socialising The Green Room What Music Are You Listening To ?

Abc - The lexicon of love. Its been awhile.

Sly & The Family Stone - 'There's a Riot Goin' On'. I've been meaning to buy this album for years.

Basically; it's the early 70s and Sly gets one of the first drum machines - a Rhthym Ace and sits in a house in LA for months and months recording with various machines and musicians while high on drugs. Brilliant!

Lacuna Coil - 'In A Reverie'

Its probably just me, but this album sounds like a mixter of 'gothic rock' and 'folk music'. Theres no stand out tracks on two listens now, but overall the album works.

U2 The Joshua Tree today.

Hopefully Peter Gabriels Hit tomorrow along with bit of Kate Bush's Whole story

And tonight I'm listening to someone completely new to me today.

Battle- The Longest Time.

The end of which of which may seem very familar to SOR fans....

This morning has been the classic Bowie concert 'Stage' from hes '78 world tour. Noticed the set list is kind of in era sections, much like Johns today.

I always liked the "sectioning" of the Stage CD, but I was sad to discover recently that the tracks were re-arranged afterwards. On the reissue from a couple of years ago the tracks were back in the original setlist order complete with a few extras.

Still a great live album though. I like the more electronic approach to the Ziggy Stardust medley.

Oh blimey

[EDIT] So its another for the case of making each release, the first AND definitive issue.

The original concert (and therefore recording tracklist) as as follows:

1. Warszawa
2. Heroes
3. What In The World
4. Be My Wife
5. Blackout
6. Sense Of Doubt
7. Speed Of Life
8. Breaking Glass
9. Beauty And The Beast
10. Fame
Disc: 2
1. Five Years
2. Soul Love
3. Star
4. Hang On To Yourself
5. Ziggy Stardust
6. Art Decade
7. Alabama Song
8. Station To Station
9. Stay
10. TVC 15

Personally I have grown accustomed to, and prefer, the original version. Apparenatly Tony Visconti also edited the "boos" out from unappreciative morons in the crowd who didn't like the instrumental tracks from "Low" and "Heroes".

Alex, so this is the original setlist on the re issue? If so, then thats the one ive got.

Tonight two Garbage albums, - 'Garbage' and 'Version 2.0'
