South of Canal st? I've eaten there.
And at Le Mela, there really were a batch of hefty suited men with violin cases. Like a violin nonet.

I reckon The Doc's diagnosis is absolutely OTM.

Revive partially cause a slew of Alison S.'s collaborative stuff has just been reissued via LTM. Never heard any of it before so it's been grand to hear how her vocal approach changed, just, over the years.

Just got the Crepescule CD last week although I've had the records for a long time. Classic, of course, and "Final Day" really is perfect.

I have the 25 track CD thing with the bleepy stuff near the end, but as mentional upthread, Final Day, Salad days, Choc Loni etc; just wonderful.

I've bought and sold this reocrd twice, and have given it a more than fair go. Only "Astral Weeks" has been persevered with longer for less reward on my cheap Czech turntable.

I'm no Astral Weeks fanatic either, but it's hard for me to be objective about YMG.

And if you're missing the bonus tracks, Phil, that may help to persuade you.

also, has anyone heard Fools Brigade? sf indie/post-punk band that totally reminds me of this. there's no mention of them on the web at all?
― jaxon (jaxon), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 18:53 (seventeen years ago) link
I may give them one more try in the future (because of course one's tastes can always change), but for now, like gentlemen, we must agree to differ.

I just got this set. I haven't played it yet but I read the booklet.
There is no information at all about howcome they made a second album but never released it.
― Mark G, Monday, 30 July 2007 14:08 (sixteen years ago) link
Same here! But that's why I brought it into work.
Second album? Did I miss something?
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 30 July 2007 14:09 (sixteen years ago) link
CD2 has the singles (Final Day ep, Testcard EP) and the 'second' album.
― Mark G, Monday, 30 July 2007 14:10 (sixteen years ago) link
I admit I never picked up Salad Days individually but I thought that was a collection of demos.
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 30 July 2007 14:11 (sixteen years ago) link
Ode to Booker T is my all time favourite.
― I know, right?, Monday, 30 July 2007 14:12 (sixteen years ago) link
that may be because they never recorded a second album! there was a rumor going round that the three of them reconvened in the '80s to release a 7" single, but it never happened. the only thing they've recorded post-colossal youth is one new track for the bbc radio wales special in 2004.
there was an unreleased gist album. perhaps that's what you're thinking of?
