Thanks for bringing this guy back on the front scene ! I listen to Us and So from time to time and wonder why I never bought his other albums ! I've loved his musical style since Genesis and he never deceived.Another prog rock reflective moment brought to you by a confirmed old fart.
Ah, Mark King... and Lvl42 ; such an underrated band ! I've always felt it was a band having such an unexploited talent. Their albums always left me with the impression of an unfinished job ; that feeling they could achieve so much more but never quite reached their maximum. I'm unable to sort out what was going wrong though and that'll always remain one of the most frustrating band I've ever loved...I was watching a few vids about Mark King, bassist for Level42: video
Zappa never disappoints !And speaking of Vinnie Colaiuta, I think Ill listen to Joe's Garage at some point today
The vid isn't currently viewable (at least from here) so as I do not know this Band, I've watched The Dark instead… and loved it ! Excellent production and an intriguing voice. The video clip is average but I like the songNicole Steen's got a beautiful voice.
"Held Suspended" by Coal
Interesting, but a little too challenging for my usual tastes, thrasher.
Blazing the way for the likes of acts like Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, etc….
Strange but oh so hypnotising
Kate Bush - At The BBC(TV Performances)
I remembered how brilliant she was when I read the Peter Gabriel - Melt - post a few back by Thrasher
I have a hard time picking a favorite of mine from her work, but this one's just incredibly haunting. Nothing really beats it for me for raising the hair on the back of my neck. It's probably the memories, too…
Kate Bush - This Woman's Work
And just like that you've hit on 2 of my 3 favorite songs of his (Games and Remember-although I haven't heard that version before and favor the pounding bassline of the more common version)… The other is a specific mix of In Your Eyes that was very common back in the day but never seems to get played anymore.Understand. It's probably more of a developed taste, as the first time I found them freaky. The first two below were accessible from the get go for me, but still odd and intriguing. I Don't Remember is good too. Check out some weirdness in the video…
Games without Frontiers
And Through the Wire
I Don't Remember (with accompanying bizarre very early music video)
Old man Peter Gabriel, but he still sounds fantastic, and with the orchestra its phenomenal. Another of my favorites of his
"San Jacinto" - New Blood Orchestra- Live in London
I think I can miss that.
