Je suis Charlie

Nice pick Jahn. The song: I see your lips move but I can't hear what your saying... excellent. Dave's guitar work, I've spoken of before - I am conflicted - I really love his playing, he employs meaningful notes, and I know he is there as a stand-in, yet that has to be put aside as he is his own man. His sound is so humbucker but he is using single-coils.

Je suis Charlie - I could say something about this, because I helped Julie lead a session at the recent workshop on this very subject, which caused a lot of emotion in the room. So that is another subject, yet your association of Comfortably Numb is a clever choice - well done!

Who just left us at the age of 68 ...

This guy's great! I've never heard of him, but I'll look up some more - love his gear.

'You've got to play the game": brings up a sore point from our evening. We went to a beloved friend's retrospective exhibition earlier this evening - she is a powerful and deeply genuine person. There are few like her in the world, and that's me saying it. I even told her one day. She is a fabulous painter, and the local city Art Gallery put on her Retrospective. We sent in one of our purchases of her work. Look, she is beyond the crap that went on, but I feel upset that they brought in the local Federal PM who is a dik-wit (Barnaby Joyce for those who know) to ponce on, and the main speaker crapped on about the gallery, with almost nothing to say about Fay. Of course the gallery is using Fay to spruik their own profile, and Fay knows well how to 'play the game'.

She can play the game, but when we spoke to her on leaving, she knew exactly what was going on - I was sad for her, but really, Fay is beyond these fools. She is one of those rare creatures who has wisdom far beyond her understanding. I am so privileged to have known her.

Thanks for putting these two up Jahn - I had not been aware of this band before. But really, it did crystallise something for me, which I have been pondering recently. You have to admire Ginger, he is the real deal. But the difference between these other musicians and Cream, is that you can't help visualising that bass and guitarist combining with Ginger. To be honest, I like these guy's music, and I would have valued the album back in the days... Yet, despite their excellent musicianship, especially the guitarist, they lack something unique among creatures which the Cream members had amply. What is it? The music is good stuff, but some spark of numinosity is missing that infused Cream - a subterranean power.

And that spark is what we seek in others we meet. We can value their skill or dedication, or even their feather display, but in the end, only some souls have been down to the water and back - although why this happens even before birth is a mystery. Some have it, yet still require a refresher course to the water again in this life, like George Harrison, which John Lennon didn't need - but that made George something extra special.

Time ... it affects also me ... and my LP-Collection. Since the 1970's I have moved my albums between flats and houses about eight times and some LP:s are simply missing  :( . This one with Baker Gurvitz Army and some early David Bowie, before the Ziggy Stardust and Space Oddity are a few examples.

I know exactly what you mean about to have it; the spark, the sublime or even the half divine... or not. that is a kind of seeing or feeling one can have.

Well, I had to put the earphones in for these guys. Where did you come across them Jahn? I watched quite a few of their clips - icons all over. But they change their theme constantly - impressive! And they are speaking to a new youth in their own adapted myths. What you can do with a group of talented people.

Takida, they are a Swedish Group, and I Heard them (with this particular song) first on Radio in the car.
And I thought they sang "And You Love" - but it was "And You Learn". They are very talented and even do Tours unplugged.

Obviously, it's the main guy who is driving this, but he must be able to rally the support of so many creative friends, because their productions are terrific. It's not just the videos, which are amazing, but their technical sound production, which despite being somewhat cliche in style, is nonetheless done exquisitely well! These guys have a big future.

Well, please tell them. I like them also but they have no real success, what I know.

Saw that one earlier - recycle of the Rebel Without a Cause, James Dean iconic film. Punchy guitar stuff.

Thåström - Kom med mig (live hos Skavlan 2015)


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Vq5QwbQblc

Thåström played live in our city some weeks ago and got the best Review one can get along with a honest recognition for his dark industry rock.

This is about the best that we have going on now in Sweden except the First Aid Kit - which are two sisters in a complete another genre.
