I can easily picture the two flags flying in the blue sky of Limerick! On my side, I’m in a bar on a Nantes riverboat, enjoying a drink, in good company with a small circle of revolutionaries 😂 I wish you a wonderful Patti Smith concert, Vincent.

#TheCureFriday Regrets and whispers — A contribution to James’ dream compilation The Cure Secrets (live Ontario Theater, Washington, November 16, 1984. The Top Tour) youtu.be/NlhN5x9Jy6E?...
#ArtistFaveLP 2 LP: Gothic Rock Volume 1 Produced by Colin Newman, '…If I Die, I Die' is one of the great albums of its era. An excellent track, imo, though not the album’s strongest one: Virgin Prunes Pagan Lovesong (1982) youtu.be/7SGAOOl8S68?...
#ArtistFaveLP 3 LP: Gothic Rock Volume 1 Anja Huwe and her band take us into a witches’ sabbath. Produced by I. Watts-Russell & J. Fryer, this re-recorded early single was released for 4AD and later featured on Tocsin. Xmal Deutschland - Incubus Succubus II (1983/1984) 🎶 youtu.be/rzV8rhDKLN0?...
#ArtistFaveLP 4 LP: Gothic Rock Volume 1 The last 4 tracks are my 4 favourites. This one stands out for its atmosphere, creativity (Daniel Ash on guitar!), and elegance. Tones on Tail Burning Skies (1983) 🎶 youtu.be/N1Ase-OKASo?...
#ArtistFaveLP 5 Gothic Rock Volume 1 Liner notes: 'This surfaced later as a Spear tune but here, much nervier it carries a lopsided kick to it that should have you spitting your false teeth right across the room.' Theatre of Hate Black Madonna - Sept. 7th 1982. youtu.be/0iyhlm7n4qk?...
Nice! I saw this 6-CD box set yesterday in a shop. No information other than the recording dates. I think CD1 (1981) contains your live recording, judging by the setlist.
#ArtistFaveLP 6 LP: Gothic Rock Volume 1 Former Christian Death vocalist and one of the defining voices of the early goth scene, performing a longer, alternative version of "Incendiary Lover." 👌 Gitane Demone Incendiary Lover 🎶 youtu.be/1WaN5slUgMI?...
#NowPlaying #Madonna A quiet Saturday afternoon seemed like the perfect time for some Confessions. Madonna ~ Confessions II L.E.S. Girl 🎶 youtu.be/saTgTt28l3c?...
#ArtistFaveLP 7 LP: Gothic Rock Volume 1 - Stigmata Martyr. The Unstoppable Goth Machine The best version of this dance machine imo: Alien Sex Fiend Now I'm Feeling Zombified 🎶 (Live, Club Citta, Tokyo, 29/5/91, edited down from 13 minutes) youtu.be/4qvAH0aUGuM?...
#MusicChallenge #ArtistFaveLP 8 LP: Gothic Rock Volume 1 - Stigmata Martyr. The Unstoppable Goth Machine Rhythmic and atmospheric. A fantastic track. The Danse Society We're So Happy (1982) dansesociety.bandcamp.com/album/were-s...
#ArtistFaveLP 9 LP: Gothic Rock Volume 1- Stigmata Martyr. The Unstoppable Goth Machine A Batcave-era track rooted in glam rock, with post-punk club energy. Catchy, danceable rock’n’roll. Specimen Batastrophe EP (1983) Syria 🎶 youtu.be/at_6kgeXCZI?...
#ArtistFaveLP 10 LP: Gothic Rock Volume 1 - Stigmata Martyr. The Unstoppable Goth Machine From the band's dark, theatrical early days, featuring Julianne Regan on bass and backing vocals before she went on to form All About Eve. Gene Loves Jezebel Shaving My Neck- 1982 youtu.be/lxAjHhQAKUs?...
Next time, Robert, stop by Paris for a gothic tour. You can check out the lipstick kiss marks on the grave of a guy who had a major influence on the writing of Kiss Me x3 by The Cure and visit a Dead Can Dance album cover.
Agreed! I'll be listening to a remastered version which has two bonus tracks after the title track ‘Wave’ (Fire of Unknown Origin and 5-4-3-2-1 / Wave live). What about you?
#NP This 2CD 'The Cure – Rare Radio Tapes’ has AI uncanny artwork, a wrong lineup, and an incomplete tracklist on the back. Yet it somehow contains the Leipzig Festwiese (East Germany, 4 Aug 1990) radio broadcast, full live recording. (New retail release, sold in major chains).
