Ennio Morricone’s latest release. Obscure cuts selected from the experimental Italian films of the 60’s and 70’s. This is a Hendrix wah-wah inspired track that I like quite a bit after a couple of plays. Thought some of you might be tuned in likewise.

I thought they were never a patch on Joy Division once Ian went; not even close.

One of the best rock/pop piece from my youth years :heart_eyes:

Well here’s most definitely one: Vernon Reid’s all-Black hard rock band Living Colour:

Here’s Thunder’s track about hard drugs / child prostitution and related deaths not being a particularly heroic thing:

Mint, loved Living Colour, we are the children of concrete and steel…everything is possible but nothing is real

Wished I’d understood that when I was singing it in my 20s… :laughing:

That’s the sign of an impressive repertoire range.
I had those two early 90s Living Colour albums and really got one of them (Time’s Up) and the other ‘Stain’ was way over my head (as a white guy in his mid20s at the time.

Yeah got those two and the earlier one Vivid, played both Time and that a lot, own Stain and have never finished it. Maybe the postmodernism got to them! Vivid is a great album and it wasnt for years that I realised they had covered Talking Heads on it, but I always thought Desperate People was the showcase track. Vernon still ploughed on but I think he got even more experimental and into bit-crushing effects, which knowing a little about guitar effects, sound shite to me.

Vernon’s views or more accurately feelings about Jimi grabbed my interest in interviews he did with Charles Shaar Murray for his Hendrix bio. I thought I have to hear this black guy with this supposedly great technique who could be a kind of Hendrix compensation figure. I guess my expectations were too high.

Id discovered Vernon before Jimi :roll_eyes: I thought Vernon excelled on Time’s Up but never really did anything else. He was bigged up no-end within the industry, I saw it billed, on the cover of Q I think ‘the next Jimi Hendrix’ etc, once again. Its the death knell.

Incidentally, no intention to offend, but having (modestly) heard mostly everything you should, I think Frank was the best, way ahead.

Murray is a complete gobshite tho!!!
