music in the shed


Mention of Sinead 0`Connors passing ( she always was a bit of an attention seeker ... ) ..... although not featured on this , as far as I know ...... she did appear on the two first World Party albums ........ Karl Wallinger helped her with her debut album The Lion and The Cobra ....... she returned the favour by guesting on his ......

Just added this to the setlist in one of the bands I'm playing in - awesome song. I compared the orig studio version with her and her band live on Letterman and couldn't distinguish one different not save for the end (which didn't fade out). beautiful playing and singing.

Yes , great voice ......... she always reminded me of a young Martin Sheene ... ( the looks , not the voice ! ) .......

Letterman was good as well .... he always seemed like a nice guy ....... I like the way he apologised to the cameraman for having to zoom in on her photo unexpectedly towards the end ......

I think she would have made a passable Joe Walker from Dads Army - little ’tache and a fag and Bobs yer uncle!
 

Talking of cocaine ...... I was thinking about how many popular songs have celebrated cocaine , or heroin , or any other recreational drug ........ I was thinking of Eric Claptons cover of the song of the same title , or Lou Reed`s " Perfect Day " .................. then but thought of DM`s " taking a ride with my best friend " ....... " promises me I`m as safe as houses , as long as I remember who`s wearing the trousers ... " .......

Classy video made by Anton Corbijn , ex NME photographer , a long time ago .......

Just like Jackson Browne , Dillinger has got cocaine running around in his brain ....... Although I don`t think " A knife , a fork , a bottle and a cork " is the correct way to spell New York , despite what Dillinger is telling Jim ........ too much substance abuse catching up with him , maybe ..... or maybe Dillinger is just used to the " high " life ........

BTW Dillinger seen here seated on a Honda ...... Also one of his albums was called CB200 , with a picture of a red petrol tanked version on the album cover ...... the popular next step up from a C90 in Jamaica .......

Cocaine was a J.J. Cale number.

Notable band the Dandy's, have "Used to be friends" acoustic version on the play along at home, live gig wise one of my granny power singers and myself hooting version of "Bohemian" i converted her to Dandy's... she loves the song, more so the Ooooo's sung together. Good man Tony, much in common, you have a fine ear, j

p.s. Broken Peach version of Depeche "Personal Jesus is very good, sort of live video version at a club...
