Where’s the anger? The frustration?
 

In a lot of the replies on here, by the looks of it.

This lot tonight at The Jazz Cafe in Camden. If pushed, I'd say they're probably my favourite Turkish psychedelic electronica folk rock group.

Many thanks Douglas , thanks to all for the votes , it would be great to have a few more entering and voting.

it is brilliant way to enjoy, learn and develop the process of composing, playing and recording music . 

Congrats sir, another top tune. Does seem a shame that we can't get a few more to join in the fun. Very difficult to find the time, I guess. Modern life is too hectic! 

Better late than never (probably)......

Electric saz, violin bass, keys, looper drum samples and somewhat rushed guest vocals by Buster "Composting" Austin and Elvis P.

I've got one almost ready, it'll be finished by tomorrow evening 👍

Bravo sir 👏👏👏

Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division. Massively overrated, not half as good as some of their output.

Highway To Hell - AC/DC. I play in a covers band and this lot get called for all the time, drives me mad as I can't stand them and have to play this dirge.

Summer of 69 - Bryan Adams. Bloke in my local puts this on the jukebox every time he's in there without fail. I will eventually take an axe to either the jukebox or him. Or both.

Tough choice this month, shall we dance? 🕺💃

I'm loving what I've heard so far from this lot.

No vote up yet?

Being a fan of Public Image Ltd I'd have to say yes. 

Here's mine, all done on a Yamaha YPT-240 keyboard. Oi, oi, saveloy, get on one, sorted, nice one, big fish, little fish, cardboard box etc.

Last Friday at Fuelers Bar at Santa Pod Raceway for the European Finals. Fantastic night yet bittersweet as it was the last time that we'll play there. Great crowd as always. Only one more gig for us now before we call it a day.

Playing here tonight (6th), last but one gig before we knock it on the head. Played at Pod many times and it's always a cracking atmosphere, will certainly miss it.

New album soon, woo hoo 😎

👏👏👏 Congratulations squire, sterling work once again 🤠

Just in time. This one features a ridiculously slowed down sitar which is the drone/backing track, effects, thumb piano, bowed psaltery, an ol' Satellite bass, some brief sampled drum kit hits and a normal speeded, detuned sitar too. Vocals by Beyoncé, ha, no, by Mrs UD. It's a toe-tapping dancefloor filler!*

*Please note - it's far, far, far from a toe-tapping dancefloor filler.

Listening  to Jah Wobble with PiL or Steve Harris with Iron Maiden. Two very different approaches, they both sounded like the most important and interesting sonic situations going on in their bands.

And, obviously, Lemmy.

Thanks, y'all. My (joint) win is dedicated to 'The Groaners', Newton Road Junior School's very own anti-choir. SEE, TEACHER? MY VOICE DONE GOOD! IN YOUR FACE, MRS BULL!

Ahem. 39 years gone. How carthartic. Picture to Skol303 follows shortly.

Jah Wobble

Lemmy

And last, and definitely least, SId Vicious 😜

Anyone else catch the performance by Public Service Broadcasting of their Race For Space album live from the Royal Albery Hall at the Proms. OK, so I love that album already but the addition of a choir, orchestra, horn section and visuals was nothing short of stunning. For those who don't know the album it's inspired by the race between the Soviet Union and USA throughout the 60s to conquer space and reach the moon. The music is accompanied by lots of voice over recordings from cosmonauts, contemporary news reports and mission control recordings.  It makes for an absorbing piece of music ranging from ambient to full on funk.  Some pretty cool bass sounds from J F Abraham. 

It's still on iPlayer for the moment...

Cheers for the heads up, I'll be giving that a listen.

Dedicated to 'The Groaners', those gravelly-voiced outcasts from Newton Road Junior School Choir, circa 1980.

Violin bass, electric saz, Hydrogen drums and, for a change, some words. I won't call them vocals. And nor should you.

You're lucky. I've done some more digging, and...
her name is Gerald.

Short for Geraldine, no? Gender down as female, after all. Regardless, we're going to be very happy together 👫

I had this message too. It has since disappeared. A quick Google of the name came up with this. 

The good news is that she loves me ❤️

I Love the Sound of Breaking Glass by Nick Lowe. Someone else carry on, I'm nowhere near a bass.
