Herman 9,755 Posted October 13, 2014 [quote user="Herman "]Going to see these guys tomorrow. Should be interesting and a break from the norm.[url]http://youtu.be/zkVpiPu-2XU[/url][/quote]That was the shortest gig i have ever been to. Started dot on 7.30 and was out the door by about 9.10 and that included a 20 minute interval. Very good though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Angry 1,554 Posted October 16, 2014 Been Youtubing quite a bit recently, trying to get inspiration for lyrics. Been revisiting a lot of 80s bands, Strawberry Switchblade, The The, Talk Talk, A Flock of Seagulls. Still sound great to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 9,755 Posted October 18, 2014 [quote user="Herman "]Heard a band from Norwich called Wooden Arms on 6 today. Very nice indeed.[Y][/quote]Fantastic. Saw them live in an old church in St.Pancras. Very talented musicians and well worth checking out in Norwich next month.Not the greatest video but a sample of what they are about.[url]http://youtu.be/uXu3eHMCdgo[/url] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First Wazzock 902 Posted November 5, 2014 I am assisting David Clayton with the country music show on Radio Norfolk Saturday. Country is not really my bag, but the modern stuff is not too bad. I''m wondering if I can get away with putting Pearl Of The Quarter by Steely Dan into the show? Does Jeff ''Skunk'' Baxter playing pedal steel qualify it as a country track?Anyhow love Steely Dan, Gaucho is a fine album with the outstanding ''Hey Nineteen'' and ''Babylon Sisters'' on it!

Wings of a Sparrow 1,414 Posted November 5, 2014 What about Hank III much vaunted by Wilmeister or was it Herman. Heard Willy Mason the other day and was impressed. or Violent Femmes Country Death Song. That''s my C&W input!Looking forward to the Damned at the Waterfront Friday, though.

First Wazzock 902 Posted November 5, 2014 Can any of you knowledgeable guys tell me anything about the Norwich band Vengeance. I am currently selling their album ''Forward Into War'' it came out in 1988 on a German label Rock-O-Rama. On the thanks - back of the sleeve - there is a mention of The Vauxhall Tavern Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 9,755 Posted November 5, 2014 Wilmeister''s your man for country, if he still lurks. A bit of Jonny Cash and Glen Campbell is my limit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Willmeister 35 Posted November 9, 2014 I can certainly help you with country FW.A few of my favourites would be the obvious like Hank Williams, Cash, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings.For modern country you have to delve pretty deep as most of the well known stuff is truly dreadful in my opinion but there are some gems like Hank III, Devil Makes Three, Joe Buck, Wayne Hancock, Scott H. Biram (more blues than country), Those Poor Bastards, Builders and the Butchers, Possessed by Paul James. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fiery Zac 1,066 Posted December 30, 2014 Got the 8 Wedding present albums given the deluxe treatment for Xmas. Nice book style case and a good amount of extra content on there (though weddoe obsessives will probably already have it all).Seamonsters one of the best albums ever made (though Bizarro runs it close). Anyone a fan or looking to check TWP out would do well to give them a listen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First Wazzock 902 Posted January 26, 2015 Last Saturday I had the pleasure of supporting Eyes Of Blond at their reunion gig at The Talk. David Clayton decided we should only play tracks from the years the band were active 66 - 71.

Mr Angry 1,554 Posted March 22, 2015 Going to see a film at Koko on Wednesday about Joe Strummer''s car-I Need A Dodge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Angry 1,554 Posted April 2, 2015 The film was ok, it was a documentary featuring a couple of bands that Joe was involved with in Spain in the 80s or 90s. There was a band on before the film featuring the original drummer and some other musicians from the punk era. They played some Clash stuff but they weren''t that good.After the film there was another band featuring better musicians, the highlight was Wayne Kramer playing a couple of Clash songs and then a couple of MC5 songs. Never really listened to them much but I might give them a go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
