Time for some UK "indie" revival;

Ride - Leave Them All Behind (lovely drumming on this track & guitars galore)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIsnb1TKYjE

Ride - Twisterella (lovely drumming, lovely song)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQ8y87YQDX4
both tracks from Going Blank Again (a very good record IMO)


House of Love - Crush Me (from the absolutely excellent album Babe Rainbow)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLIyax6PAng

Stone Roses - Love Spreads (awesome guitar playing, from the album Second Coming)

My new boss is really into some strange music.

But I've played this every other day for a week, and he says he likes that kind of music.

top comment on youtube for this one:

first 4 minutes and 10 ****ing seconds makes me feel like sitting on a mighty prog-metal unicorn, riding trough a complex, heavy forest of emotions and and some yet undiscovered feelings while shooting lasers, eating magic super chalupas, folding space-time continuum and consuming quagma datum.

Pretty crappy quality, but I love this version - the guitar sound is gritty and sooo nice, it's earcandy for me :-p. I know I have heard better versions of this, so if anyone knows any better link, please let me know :smile:.

Speaking of gritty guitars, this clip is pure earcandy to my rock'n'roll ears. Prince has done good songs, Lenny Kravitz too. But there can only be one Jimi :wink:. It's probably also one of my favorite song intros ever - it's unforgiving.

Is this the original video?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMV-fenGP1g

This seems too contemporary.

Though, I thought that the other day, when I listened to Joni.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0xPxNMrj1g

I had judged that song, 20+ years ago, as being too much of a period piece.

I think I was wrong. :frown:

Oh, Billy Idol! :smile: Nice to hear him again!

A little trivia (from Don't You (Forget About Me)-Wikipedia):
"Forsey asked Cy Curnin from The Fixx, Bryan Ferry and Billy Idol to record the song, but all three declined; Idol would later perform a cover of it on his 2001 greatest hits compilation."

Billy doing "Don't You":

Simple Minds doing "Don't You" (1985):

and now for something completely different.
A cover of Elliot Smith's "Between the Bars":

I don't think it's well known. I don't remember where I picked that up. :confused:

And speaking of the 80s, new wave, new romantics, post-punk or whatever it was called, it would be a crime if I did not post The Cult's "She Sells Sanctuary". So I do that :wink:.

Going down the 80s memory lane, I could not resist posting the wonderfully surreal video of New Order's "Blue Monday '88":

Claims to be 11 years old. I think it went over the audience's heads.
