  • NEWDUB

    In some parallel universe? King Tubby meets Joe Meek, he says-

    So here’s a (fairly) modern mix/ playlist (post 1970’s!) featuring a coupla  my favourite remixers/knob twiddling space cadets – Adrian Sherwood an Brendan Lynch.(did I hear the rosspunk mention  he wasn’t so keen on remixes recently?)

    NO! in fact I would say remixes were one of the highlights in the music scene all thru the 80’s & 9o’s! So NEWDUB

    (I just mean this side of the 70’s!) an actually I might not really mean dub at all….. An that’s when she said-things really started fallin into (space) er place…..

    2001, a space odyssey intro-

    primal scream-retribution -sherwood mix.

    new age steppers-animal space.

    brendan lynch-cosmos.

    talvin singh-equal 1.

    asian dub foundation-free satpal ram (primal/lynch mix)

    I never prayed for no money, and I never prayed for no fame. I said, ‘I’ll take care of that myself. You just keep me healthy and I’ll do all I can to try to turn people around, to try to steer ’em in the right direction.’ That’s the whole trip in life, ya know.

    Floating up into the stratosphere, looking down has given me a new sense of perspective. It’s like ants, frantically trying to keep their nest together from the attack from an Armadillo.

    This week’s offering sees me dancing, bumping, grinding and oscillating from one genre to another.

  • ‘LAST TRAIN TO MEMPHIS’

    Every so often a book comes along  that deserves a special mention-

    So here then is a playlist based on, or at least influenced by the brilliant –

    ‘Unrivalled…(Elvis) steps from these pages, you can feel him breathe, this book cancels out all others’-Bob Dylan.

    23,THE INK SPOTS-THAT’S WHEN YOUR HEARTACHE BEGINS.

    Runnin’ time 105ish-

    A couple a notes on the songs-most of the songs included here were songs actually recorded by Elvis, although a couple are songs that he just played/sang in auditions or rehearsals. Most are the original versions. Although  a few like ‘Harbour Lights’, ‘Are You Lonesome Tonight’ an ‘Blue Moon’ were standards that had already been recorded by several different artists that Elvis would’ve heard at the time.

    An lastly the Charlie Feathers demo- I don’t think it was ever released or even recorded by C.F until some time later? It appears that it was just sung to Elvis an the band at the session? I can’t seem to find out just when the C.F vers WAS recorded/ released? I’ve always found this quite odd, as it was perfectly normal around that time, an especially at Sun, for songs to be sung by at least a couple a different artists? So obviously being such a great song, what stopped C.F recording/ releasing it at the time? – if anyone could shed any light? ………….

    please let us know at DTB! Thanx S1.
