Im sure there's something about being fat ( especially for a woman) that's deemed as being socially unacceptable in France. Link to comment

The Nouvelle Vague covers of Clash stuff is so different, so interesting and so good. They turned Guns of Brixton 180 degrees in vibe. hmmm some great covers around but not feeling that one Link to comment
Sooper-hanz Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 The Shea Stadium version of Guns is top notch . Tempo sped up a bit . Link to comment

Sooper-hanz Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Did Joe write the bass part for that song? I know he played it live ( for obvious reasons) Link to comment

They are probably the top two. Notable mentions to Arctics (who I went cold on real quick thereafter), The View and most recently Fontaines. You've been good since you came back but disagree on the Arctics and F DC. is there a best debut album thread? I expect there will be! id certainly agree re self titled clash though. Cover to cover, bloody great. Link to comment

I compared it to the live version you posted and I prefer the slow extraction of the essence of the music and the art within the lyrics to that particular clumsy confused are-we-meant-to-act-punklike-to-this-audience non-musical rendition. fair enough , i wouldn't listen to it twice . Not a put down Link to comment
Poodler Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 1 minute ago, rocket_scientist said: Unclear thinking for a couple of reasons. You're not my judge and the fact I gave a notable mention to three debut albums that I like isn't an area to disagree on. Taste is not like facts. We like or dislike to various degrees and a hundred people will have a hundred different outlooks. I think in your absence you may have missed my rise to prominent musical guru of the board. So whilst yes, musical opinion is that of the beholder, I have the final say on what constitutes a good album. I'm not judging you as a person, I'm just telling you your opinion on this matter is wrong. Link to comment

The intelligence, originality and fuck you attitude burns bright. I've shown that piece of writing to so many people. At all times of day or night. JUST LOOK AT THIS.

Sooper-hanz Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 See another thing @Poodler , that record shop /cafe isn't very inviting from the outside. Unless youre looking for it then you barely know it's there. Has to have better kerb appeal. Link to comment
