Lovin’ this…
With ‘Radio Four’, I was just alone in the studio one night, and I was overwhelmed with the sense of space-- I just took everything out of the studio, moved the drum kit out, and played everything myself, reproducing this sense of cold spaciousness I felt around me. That was me playing the bass – I played what I thought people would identify as a Wobble bass line, but it was my pattern.

Bands that passed me by,part 7
Never heard of this band til a couple of weeks ago.
Probably more u2 than u2.
Sadly the singer took his life in 99.
I’m sure some on here will know more about them.
Bastard tooth ache keeping me up, so on YouTube… Again
Think it was Paul Morley who said, imagine one day we find out Mark e Smith wasn’t a genius, but was just some drunk bloke who kept climbing on the stage
Sorry about the toothache - relatable.
Saw them on this tour - he wasn’t quite that far gone, but he was a wrung-out wrag for sure. Sad, but no-one was ever gonna steer that particular supertanker away from inevitable disaster…
Ended up for some reason seeing The Fall a lot between 1988 and 1992, and in particular seeing a lot of their gigs in the north when they were touring Extricate, to the point where he began to recognise me at the front as each gig started. Unique front man and lyrical genius, amongst many other less desirable qualities.
Never got to see them.
Amazon were selling all 24 of the falls peel sessions as a download around a decade ago for 99p.
My laptop died as did the unused backup I had never used.
For some reason they all returned on my Amazon account a couple of months ago
Did you find any Bitcoin on there?
