Re: The Mighty Musical Observations Thread
Nice thanks! No idea of the JS link either. It's probably why the algorithm recommended it though.

Interesting, just listened but can't hear any piano. Solid song though.Marky Dread wrote: ↑31 Jul 2024, 5:40pmJoe Strummer plays some piano on that one.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Here's the vid for the single. Joe can be heard on piano at 1min 27secs. Also some crowing sounds not too dissimilar to London Calling though I don't know if that's Joe crowing or one of The Levellers.

Re: The Mighty Musical Observations Thread
hey does anyone have a copy of the 20 years of dischord box set and would be able and willing to upload the void mpg video that came on disc 3? As part of my obsessive cataloging of my music collection I try to copy that kind of "enhanced content" onto my hard drive but the void file must have a scratch on the disc or something (actually, I think I recall it never opened or copied for me). I understand there are better sources for this footage at this point on the internet, but I'm looking to back up the disc content as it was presented so getting that actual file would be great. Thanks in advance for anyone who can help!
(p.s. interestingly, the rarities disc of 20 year of dischord is available on streaming and bandcamp, but the first 2 discs were never made available except on CD I guess. Combine that with the thick book that came with the set and it's just another example of how the streaming era loses you lots of content).

I've found it on SoulSeek, but I'm in a pretty long queue for it right now.Flex wrote: ↑02 Aug 2024, 4:24pmhey does anyone have a copy of the 20 years of dischord box set and would be able and willing to upload the void mpg video that came on disc 3?

Alrighty, I'll abandon the quest. But, yeah, Soulseek is now where I also look for eBooks and audiobooks before regular web source.Flex wrote: ↑02 Aug 2024, 5:45pmI keep forgetting you can get videos and such on soulseek.
