I feel sort of a combination between a Renaissance Fair taking place below a darkened sky. There's people turning mutton on a spit. There's women dancing and people and all sorts of frolicking. There's men in armor. Horses and chivalry. And a strange little puppet show of Punch and Judy taking place
First song cut for the Turn! Turn! Turn! LP, tracked at Columbia Studios, Hollywood, on August 23, 1965. The non-LP B-side of “Turn! Turn! Turn!”, “She Don’t Care About Time,” was also tracked in that session.
I am late to the party, just seen these guys live tonight in Manchester UK.I hav'nt come across them before. F**cking Brilliant. I learnt what I have been missing
I feel like Nico aswell as probably Lou Reed and John Cale would have really liked Black Metal. I know thats probably nerdy pr whatever but i do see the ways this inspired Post Punk too. Really forward thinning stuff musically. Big influence on Punk and Metal. I can see Neofolk and Anarcho Punk and maybe like some indie even here in that too. Both Nico and The Velvet Underground. I feel the same way about The Spiffys and Love.
This song is just one of those gems….you go back to it and it never gets old or fails to feel the mood of it…its funny because you never know when songs come out, which ones will still matter 40 years later. Some disappear, but not this one. It’s a real beauty.
I love New Order, but at the time, this album meant more to me. It absolutely defined my music taste and was a soundtrack to my youth. I still keep coming back to it!
It's a beautiful piece of song writing, when the line "but now I've had enough.." comes in we all join in. I miss John Peel, he played music that broke my heart and helped me heal it. He played music that made me lose it my living room and rocked my arse off. He played some of the weirdest shit I had ever heard committed to vinyl, tape, or cd. He played my mate's tune in the Festive Fifty. He played the best drum and bass. John Peel was a cunt. I miss you.
