Wow! Another lost LP that sat unreleased until recently. The always interesting bandcampsnoop posted a song from this album, leading me to check it out on bandcamp. The Fix (definitely not the Fixx) were a British mod power pop group from Oxfordshire with a strong Jam influence. Great songwriting, vocals and guitar.
They’re local! So this one goes out to the Diamond Dave! He’s local TOO!
I really like it when these musicians and popular media figures film work they do with schools and this may raise your spirits like it did mine!
OBVS I have no idea who this is but heck its FUN! (look I am a seventy odd year old grumpy grandad and well known curmudgeon what do you expect for nuffin!?)
Earlier this week I visited the @pikeschoolarts and we played music and spent some life affirming time together. Here’s a video of us playing Big Money
Happy birthday to Pete Townshend, born in Chiswick, London on this day in 1945. He'll pick up his guitar and play, just like yesterday.
The Who’s iconic anthem from 1971’s Who’s Next album performed here on B-Stage at Shepperton Studios on 25 May 1978 Filmed by Jeff Stein for the closing sequence of The Kids Are Alright. Sadly this was to be the very last performance ever by Keith Moon.
somebody posted the two pictures above and I wondered
why . . . . . .I mean I KNOW why . . . but why? . . . . . here’s WHY
The Book I Read (Live at WCOZ, Massachusetts)
The Book I Read (1976 Demo)
none of the posts, including these video YouTube clips mentioned the name of the band so I thought I wonder if someone’s just trying to be weird . . . . . .
interestingly (I thought) this was used in the ending yesterday of The Cage [BBC] a drama where the protagonist who is obsessed with Eighties music ends up reflecting and happy on his prison bed listening to a playlist his daughter has made for him with Joy Division and The Cure songs on it!
New Orleans' Dr. John live at Ebbets Field music club in Denver, CO on 9/25/1974. Dr. John was on tour at this time to promote his latest album, Desitively Bonnaroo, released in April of that year. This set includes some songs from that album, as well as Dr. John's earlier catalog. This concert was recorded and broadcast by KBPI 106 FM in Denver, a freeform FM station at that time.
It’s been a long while since Tim Presley last erected White Fence. Following 2014’s For the Recently Found Innocent, Presley has collaborated with Cate Le Bon on two weird and wonderful Drinks albums. On Orange he returns to working with Ty Segall, with whom he’s released two very fine duo albums, Hair (2012) and Joy (2018). Familiarity with any of Presley’s past output will offer some clues to Orange’s sound, style, and sense of humor — this is psych-speckled garage-pop with dimensions of playful profundity laced within the layers of jangle.
