keith a wrote: Time's Up – Buzzcocks
The 1976 demo's featuring Devoto singing a number of songs that Shelley would later sing on the debut album. Raw but pretty darn essential.
Preliminaires – Iggy Pop
Apres – Iggy Pop
The two French albums. Some tracks are even sung in French. Iggy's voice is deeper than the ocean.
I saw the re-formed Stereolab the other night in Manchester. Some great moments, especially Metronomic Underground which was spine-tingling. Laetitia seemed especially to enjoy herself.
I do love that Devoto 'Times Up' recording, a nice glimpse of what could have been had he stayed with the Buzzcocks (But then thinks of the horror, would we have had Magazine if he had???)
Fer such a short guy, Iggy has an incredibly deep voice in his dotage, how long do you think it'll be till it drops off the bass end of the register and all we here is Iggy infrasound?
Glad you enjoyed Stereolabs reunion. Whereas, I, stupidly bought a ticket for em' in Brum when I first head about the gigs, then promptly forgot about the date, so sadly missed em' :(
