BBC 4 - Factory - joy divison to happy mondays

nowt new said really just a tribute to tony wilson ..... top tv all the same.... ........ catch it if its repeated

 

******, forgot about it being on nt

 

It's repeated later in the early hours.

Wilson looked shocking I thought. Couldn't have been recorded long before he died.

 

last time i saw him he was leaving a neil young acoustic concert

at manc appollo during the interval (N)

 

What year was that? nt

 

4 year ago, it was when he did the whole Greendale album

months before it's release, a brave, but typical neil young trick'yeah 2003, i bought the cd on it,s release when in bournemouth for our game there

 

RE: 4 year ago, it was when he did the whole Greendale album

That's weird... got Itunes on shuffle and Powderfinger just come on..

Have you seen Heart of Gold... very intimate performance.

 

Powderfinger, brilliant, love that Rust n/salbum, and

yes, got the 2 disc versin of heart of gold, its a great concert and documentary, neil doent look too well though, think he had brain surgery or something shortly after the recording, looking forward to the anthology 64-72 mega disk set, unfortunatly been postponed till feb next yeqar and will include both the massey hall and fillmore east sets which havenow already been released, massey hall is awesome

 

RE: Powderfinger, brilliant, love that Rust n/salbum, and

I've got the Fillimore one... do you actually think the anthology will see the light of day. He's been promising it for about 20 years.

I first saw him in Finsbury Park when he had Booker T and MGs backing him. Neil Youngs just got to be one of my favourate performers.

 

its been promoted a lot this year, even on official sites but

as you say its been on the cards for years, i went to finsbury park with my mate who lives near wood green just up the road from there, before the show we were talking about some of neils songs we liked less than others, i mentioned motorcyle mamma, which he went and did, thought James were good that day but didnt really go down well with most of the crowd, after neil diamond he's one of my favs, got all his albums on cd and vinyl but nothing really rare

 

RE: its been promoted a lot this year, even on official sites but

Teenage Fanclub were on the bill too... and you just have to love them.

I had a bootleg copy of the Finsbury gig on tape... but sadly I lost it.

I think you will like them... very influenced by Neil Young and Big Star.

 

RE: try this link

Tried it but its not working... so will try it again in the morning.

Talking of brain surgery... have you heard the new Edwyn Collins' single.. I absolutely love it. It's got a Al Green quality to it.
