H αστική παρακμή σε συσκευασία παραμορφωμένου electro/hip hop!
Tόσο ακριβώς experimental , όσο πρέπει για να συνεχίζεις να υφίστασαι μουσικά…
Τόσο ασύμμετρο όσο απαιτεί η έκπληξη και όχι η βαρεμάρα
oh my sexy Lord (?) η Minneapolis βρίσκεται στο φεγγάρι ?
 
Πρέπει να παραδεχτώ πως τους Manic Street Preachers πάντα τους σνόμπαρα λιγάκι ως προς τη μουσική τους. Τώρα πλέον, αφού άκουσα το Rewind the Film, αναθεωρώ. Πολύ όμορφο άλμπουμ που μόλις έσκασε στην playlist και το βάζω όλο. Ποστάρω να το τσεκάρετε...
Manic Street Preachers - Rewind the Film (στη συγκεκριμένη περίπτωση το τραγούδι)

Live At The Boston Tea Party (Recorded in 1970, originally released in 1985, re-released by Snapper in 1999) Rating: A-
The background on this album (or albums) is as follows, courtesy of Hal Horowitz of the All Music Guide: "Recorded during a legendary extended weekend stand in 1970, these live recordings from the three guitar lineup of Fleetwood Mac have existed in various shoddy, uneven and sometimes sloppy configurations, but were finally sorted out and released as a triple disc box, (also available individually) in 1999. First generation source tapes were utilized, approximately an hour's worth of previously unreleased tracks as well as between song patter is interspersed among the discs, and the running order is restored to match that of the original performance." And if you thought you knew Fleetwood Mac before, well, you're going to be in for quite the pleasant surprise, as these live albums (now depressingly hard to find but well worth the search) show off a completely different side of the band than their studio albums. Simply put, Peter Green-era Fleetwood Mac were a GREAT live band who went far beyond the constraints of the blues. They still played the blues, but this box set also adds LSD-fueled material that's much harder-edged and more melodic than most other bands of their era. Given that you may have trouble obtaining this album, especially as a box set, I'd recommend starting with disc one, my favorite among the three since it rocks the hardest and is the one on which Green is most often up front and center. The disc starts with a strong, rocking version of "Black Magic Woman" that's of course expanded from its studio version. A cover of Duster Bennett's "Jumping At Shadows" is another highlight, this one a tasty, tasteful ballad with oddly fitting lyrics, as if Green had written it himself. A pair of strong Kirwan songs come next, "Like It This Way" featuring fiery traded off guitar licks, and "Only You" being fast-paced and poppier but still containing some hot guitar. Later on we get a pair of James covers from Spencer, "I Can't Hold Out" being a typical effort from him (i.e. not my cup of tea) but "Got To Move" being surprisingly retrained and all the better for its subtlety. However, the main reasons to own this disc are a pair of Green epics. "Green Manalishi," Green's last single with the band, is here expanded from four to 13 minutes, and though it meanders towards the end, I can certainly see why Judas Priest was later inspired to cover this mighty, metallic monster, which features pounding beats and terrific all around lead guitar work. Even better is "Rattlesnake Shake," here stretched out to almost twenty five minutes as obviously the studio version was just a skeleton of what this song could be. This largely improvisational, supremely intense heavy rocker showed how powerful the McVie/Fleetwood rhythm section could be when they were locked in, and above all else it shows what a masterful guitar player Green was when inspired. Sure, there are some lulls along the way, but when they were on, this version of Fleetwood Mac were improvisational masters on the level of the Allman Brothers Band or the Grateful Dead. Disc two is less impressive, in large part because much of the middle of the album is dominated by Spencer, who covers more Elmore James songs ("Stranger Blues," "Red Hot Mama") and adds an annoying Elvis parody ("Teenage Darling"). The Little Richard tracks ("Keep A-Knocking," "Jenny Jenny") also give me a "you had to have been there" vibe, though the energy certainly isn't lacking on these songs or "Encore Jam," on which Joe Walsh jams with the gang (the James Gang were the opening act) in a sloppy, muddled, but nevertheless quite enjoyable manner. The best tracks on this disc are at the beginning, specifically "World in Harmony," the lone Kirwan/Green composition which is notable for its pretty intertwining guitars, and a short, raging version of "Oh Well" that focuses only on the first part of the song. Best of all is a 25+ minute version of "Rattlesnake Shake" that's even better than the rendition on disc one and for my money is the definitive version of the song, thereby making disc 2 another must-hear. As for disc 3, well, unfortunately I seem to have misplaced it for the time being, so I'm going to have to cut this review short. However, suffice it say that if you like discs 1 and 2 then you'll definitely want to hear disc 3 as well, though from my recollection it’s the weakest of the three discs. Note: This album is also known as Live In Boston, but be aware that Fleetwood Mac's 2004 live album recorded during their Say You Will tour bears the same title.
