Zhan_Zhuang Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 On the subject of drummers it has to be King of the Double Bass Fill....Dave Lombardo...he is Next Level. Lombardo's drum set-up in this live footage from Montreux Jazz Festival is Bonham epic level... And...if you can't handle that here's some bitesize footage... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not a direction he wanted to pursue though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think side 1 or 2 ever got topped in terms of heavy rock. It’s so big and brash sounding. Custard Pie The Rover In My Time Of Dying Houses Of The Holy Trampled Underfoot Kashmir every song is gigantic. Not sure you’ll ever hear a more powerful drumming performance. Unbelievable sound they managed to get, especially Bonham on drums . Going to give this a listen again on the drive to my parents in a bit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 In one of those absent minded moments I was just sort of gazing in to space and thinking of Seat68 and whether he had found his copy of Blue Monday. My mind then drifted to the tale of how the packaging cost them money every time someone bought a copy. From there, I thought, what’s the most ‘complicated’ record I’ve got? Well there are probably a few contenders, such as the SFA box set, but then they added extra cost so you paid for the toys that came with the box set. But as a standard priced record, Guerilla by Super Furries takes some beating. A double album, because they decided it should be on 45rpm, gatefold sleeve, with a 3D pop out, a little insert sleeve, lyrics on the sleeves. Then the actual record includes the ‘hidden’ track ‘citizens band’. That track plays backwards. First few tracks play as normal you put the needle on the record and off you go. Last track doesn’t play, you have to put the needle to the end and it then plays on a reverse groove with the arm moving from centre to the outside. Yeah, complicated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Never found. It is still keeping me awake. My most complex record is a **** Pooh Sticks album. Empty tracks for no bloody good reason. Pointless. I may be wrong but I think either side is at different speeds. Arseholes. I love the album mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted October 10, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted October 10, 2021 (edited) Just discovered Brum Radio - Alternative Roots - it's bloody brilliant. The latest Alternative Roots on BrumRadio Alternative Roots 10.10.21 EDIT: Actually, on further playing, it's not all that brilliant, much of it is forgettable. I just liked the fact that somebody is playing lesser-known singer-songwritery stuff. Edited October 11, 2021 by mjmooney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 31 years ago The Wedding Present released a seven inch single each month for a year. Limited edition and varying degrees of quality. They are doing this again, I don't intend to buy them but was intrigued by it, the price of the 7" delivered from the band direct? 15.49. Absolute daylight robbery.

Seat68 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I bought them and still have them but stopped buying weddoes stuff around 2004 so these releases are not going to be even considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still buy the odd one. Last one I bought was a 10” of a Huw Stevens session (all covers) because I really liked the version of Step Inside Love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen the weddoes loads of times, but one time about maybe 15 years or 10 ago, I saw them in the Blackpool tower lounge, maybe 100 people there and it seemed kind of sad, just a 50 year old musician and his band churning it out on a cold winter evening in a half empty bar, probably because they had no other option. I guess it was around the time of El Rea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tegis Posted October 18, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted October 18, 2021 I just love a totally overboard person like this. Doing it just because he wants to. And building it himself (with custom made for parts and a lot of **** you money) instead of just chucking money at something off the shelf. 30 years in the making, what a thing. And a 28000 vinyl collection to top it off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
