celeste Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 I love goth music. Am a die hard Mission fan and still play some Sisters of Mercy stuff. In that case you'll love Bauhaus, the original and best Spirit one of their later tracks so a bit more poppy, than stuff like In The Flat Field, give them a listen, you won't be disapointed, and of course you have to listen to their Goth anthem Bela Lugosie's Dead, you might also like the splinter group Tones on Tail Ok This is The Pops not as good as Bauhaus but worth a listen, or one I used get seriously creeped out at when I was a young un' UK Decay although for the full effect you really need to listen to it on headphones, in your bed, in the dark .

Alison Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 Bauhaus here too, coincidentally. 3 vinyl LPs which belong to my lodger. On the agenda for later is a Leonard Cohen compilation and this is my favourite track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alison Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 (edited) Don't want to start a new thread, but could any muso Fugees offer advice please? Input from Ange's hubby (for one) would be greatly appreciated Sol and I are currently at loggerheads over a busking tune issue. He's a purist and thinks that it should be played in 3/4 time. I think that 4/4 time would be better received by the public (the pattern of Sol's dance and the rhythm of the music are somehow both easier on the eye and ear in my opinion). His counter argument is that he finds it easier to perform/dance in three quarter. However he's happy to dance to other 4/4 stuff and does so perfectly which leads me to suspect he might just be being stubborn The tune in question is "Blue Moon of Kentucky". Any advice welcome Edited June 18, 2008 by Alison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nouggatti Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Personally, were I Sol's human slave, and bound to suffer a Sol strop if I went against him, I would just play it in 3/4 when he wishes it to be so, and put it on a walkman/ipod/listen to it on headphones at 4/4 when I wanted to, so as to avoid strops Should he need to perform to this tune in public I would go with 3/4, otherwise the quality of his performance may be affected by Soluffiness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyMalc Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Perfect reply T! It's very nice and quiet here at the moment, but there's a mixed hiphop and a Tupac CD in my stereo which I was listening to yesterday (RIP Tupac - you're a legend ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A perfect reply indeed Theresa, thank you I've given up any ideas of independence re. the Ipod suggestion mind you, just easier to bow to the greater Ginga knowledge and resign myself We're "being" the Andrews Sisters tonight (mostly Rum and Coca Cola but some Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy too - trying out a new routine that Sol fancied) so harmonious artistic relations are restored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
