Currently enjoying Devandra destroying 'So Long, Marianne', one on my list to learn.<br /><br />The Sweet's 'Blockbuster' is coming along nicely.Dubdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00845179324252167432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25778209.post-73690189287120558722009-12-22T11:02:41.910+00:002009-12-22T11:02:41.910+00:00Speaking of Venus in Furs covers (haven't hear...Speaking of Venus in Furs covers (haven't heard the Numan/Boots, on paper it looks like a bad idea), have you seen/heard Beck's Record Club where he covers the entire Velvet Underground & Nico album?<br /><br />It's done as a blog so you have to back track back through it from here:<br />http://www.beck.com/sections/2?page=3<br /><br />He also does Songs of Leonard Cohen and some Skip Spence tracks. Davendra's in there at some points, and there's videos.<br /><br />It's kind of what you might expect, all live one take stuff, but has some interesting moments.Steven Ballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470957702511115115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25778209.post-74965410933366395742009-12-21T14:42:44.982+00:002009-12-21T14:42:44.982+00:00Hmmm, there's a point.

Maybe I'll have to start including Spotify playlists on 'This is what a year sounds likeā¦' Next year maybe.Dubdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00845179324252167432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25778209.post-50830764159855866772009-12-21T14:41:09.518+00:002009-12-21T14:41:09.518+00:00I heard Gary Numan and Little Boots slaughter Venu...I heard Gary Numan and Little Boots slaughter Venus in Furs on 6music the other day. That song is pretty much sacrosanct in my opinion - the only person who is allowed to fuck it up is Lou Reed, which he does quite often on Live albums.<br /><br />I got heavily into Blue Mask (again) last year and this year worked out what Spotify is for - listening to all those 'lost' 1980s Lou Reed albums I never bothered with before, to see if there were any remotely close to Blue Mask. They aren't.Dubdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00845179324252167432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25778209.post-18561175818375147462009-12-21T13:25:03.275+00:002009-12-21T13:25:03.275+00:00I've been (re) listening to a bit of Lou Reed ...I've been (re) listening to a bit of Lou Reed this year too, particularly live albums, RnR Animal is astounding, but my favourite has been Take No Prisoners, particularly the version of Coney Island Baby sends shivers down the back of my neck.Steven Ballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470957702511115115noreply@blogger.com
