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

You ever see the great man live Rob ?
I saw Be Bop Deluxe 5 times and Bill Nelson's Red Noise once Sterling performance every time
Plus do I get a prize for bringing number 3000 up !

John Foxx - Metamatic Disc 2*

*'Disc 2'...this just isn't 'sexy' enough a name for this gem of a disc - since Foxx hasn't callled it anything, and it does seem to work as an album in its own right; I suggest we come up with a name for it;

Matametic? Metamutic? Mutamatic? Metadata? Metatarsal?

Metallurgy
Metamorphic
Metamextra
Extramatics
Cinemascope
Glimmer
Film One
...

Only when he guested (with John, Robin Guthrie, Theo Travis, Steve Jansen, Jah Wobble, Steve Cobby, etal) at the Harold Budd gig in 2005. I'm sorry to admit that I've never seen Bill at a solo gig...

I really need to rectify that sooner rather than later...

I would love to, but it would be very difficult seeing as how there wasn't a prize for getting to number 1000 or 2000...

Would a hearty Well Done suffice...

Bjork: Post and Debut

I don't like everything Bjork does, but the tracks that I like, I really like alot.

I never give her enough credit for her work, actually.

Would a hearty Well Done suffice...

OK accepted but keep it on hold till Monday All will be revealed
PS Hope you get to see Mr Nelson at some stage

An unexpected free morning so I raided my cassette box anfd I'm having an eclectic morning

So far
Speccy eyed Scouse Mockney hybrid Declan McManus "Best of" Still sounding excellent after all these years "Alison" is awesome So is "Oliver's Army " Hope he's given a few bob to Bjorn and Benny for the piano bit nicked from "Dancing Queen"
New Amsterdam " exceptional as well

This was followed by "I'M YOUR MAN" disco Len laying down his trademark angst to a funky beat accompanied by his own Sex o Lettes

Next up prototype Basildon boy band originally cloned from Brian Clough DNA and their own personal Everest (IMHO anyway) VIOLATOR

Still to come PULP INTRO
and some Welsh agit pop/rock in the form of GOLD AGAINST THE SOUL

Radiohead : Kid A

The way it was in the past Human League-athon : The Golden Hour (the Future) - Reproduction - Travelogue combined playlist on shuffle : you get some interesting combinations.

Yesterday, it was a total Bill Nelson-a-thon - whereas (so far) today I've found myself listening to The Stranglers - this is mainly because a friend sent me a copy of the recently re-issued Fire and Water album by Dave Greenfield and Jean-Jacques Burnel...
