What You Listening To? v. I'll be Bach... (No Embeds)

Ya linkies buggered, sham - I goggled: not a great fan. Same applies to the studio version. Best version I've heard/seen is the original pacier 2006 tour version (youtube has Bonnaroo 2006 soundboard).

Waterfall's top five Cure albums (I like to codif my music and make lists, yes I am a geek):

1. Disintegration
2. The Head on the Door
3 Pornography
4. Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me (which I saw a first pressing of in ex condition the other month but couldn't stretch to £20)
5. Three Imaginary Boys

Quality choices there, and we'll not quibble about the order. I see you miss out the third part of the "trilogy", Bloodflowers, which I do too. I don't quite get the inclusion in it (marketing ploy? surely not), which is perhaps due to me not paying attention at the time of its release (even though I bought it).

I'd almost call that a connoisseur’s choice, but unfortunately there's no mention of 17 Seconds or Faith. :p Perhaps in a top 7? If you're not familiar with them (yet you love Pornography?), I'd strongly suggest getting your doom on and at least having a few listens. They are the creative bridge between 3IB and Pornography, and I have to say, when I was a downtrodden and oppressed teenager, they were firm favourites. Especially Faith.

I've discovered two other Cure geeks in one week. :D

Any shoegaze fans on EADD? If so, you might not have heard of Medicine,

Not heard of them. Have a couple of Ride albums, which I still love. MBV, of course, and then there were Pavement and Dinosaur Jr, who kinda qualify. At that point it evolved into something better and more varied. :)

Nostalgiafest. %)

For Shambles and whoever else:

The Cure - Other Voices (from Faith)

And yeah, I wonder what my parents thought when they saw that 15 year old me had a CD lying around with the word Pornography on it.

I'm sure my mother's eyes lit up at that very same detail momentarily whilst she made her way to the Smiths and Joy Division records (which were apparently the 'real' bad influences - thank fuck she didn't give Pornography a spin). :D

Anyway, repost. Because it's Lou being nice:

Lou Reed - Turn To Me
