.
Ja, wo sind Threads, wenn sie nicht da sind?
.

[fixbutte]

jetzt fehlen sie wieder
deshalb auch vorhin mein doppel-posten

Im Kinks Thread fehlen zurzeit sogar über 20 Postings - wollte Cockney vorhin schon für seine Glückwünsche verfluchen, weil die scheinbar alles vorherige geschluckt haben

[MissB.Hagen]

Er ist wieder da
Wieder hier
Er ist wieder da
So sagt man mir ...

Ja, tatsächlich - aber wo hielten die sich denn in der Zwischenzeit auf

[CockneyRebel]

.
War heute mehrmals so, dass Postings fehlten, auch bei Hawkie und mir. Ist aber alles wieder da, auch 51-57 gibt`s (bei mir) wieder.
.

[fixbutte]

oh, da hab ich nicht aufgepasst. Den redaktionellen Text zu Spooky Two hatte Missy ja schon in #1954 gepostet

Naja - doppelt genäht hält besser

[MissB.Hagen]

Vermisstenanzeige:
Bei mir fehlen hier die ## 51 ff bis 57 - und wie schaut`s bei euch aus?

......... very spooky ...

[fixbutte]

Spooky Two ist natürlich Spitze - hatte das Cover mit Hinweis auf meinen Lieblingstitel Waitin` For The Wind auch schon mal im Hard Rock Cafe gepostet



Spooky Two is this British blues-rock band`s pièce de résistance. All eight of the tracks compound free-styled rock and loose-fitting guitar playing that result in some fantastic raw music. With Gary Wright on keyboards and vocals and lead singer Mike Harrison behind the microphone, their smooth, relaxed tempos and riffs mirrored bands like Savoy Brown and, at times, even the Yardbirds. With some emphasis on keyboards, songs like "Lost in My Dream" and the nine-minute masterpiece "Evil Woman" present a cool, nonchalant air that grooves and slides along perfectly. "I`ve Got Enough Heartache" whines and grieves with some sharp bass playing from Greg Ridley, while "Better By You, Better By Me" is the catchiest of the songs, with it`s clinging hooks and desperate-sounding chorus. The last song, "Hangman Hang My Shell on a Tree," is a splendid example of this group`s ability to play off of one another, mixing soulful lyrics with downtrodden instrumentation to conjure up the perfect melancholia. Although the band lasted about seven years, their other albums never really contained the same passion or talented collaborating by each individual musician as Spooky Two. — Mike DeGagne, AMG



Hieraus ein weiterer halbakustischer Song, den ich sehr mag

Spooky Tooth - That Was Only Yesterday

Guess I`ll have to get out of this town
No sense in my waiting around
Only thing left for me here is pain
She`s gone for sure now why pretend
Left last night with a friend
Leaving not a word that would explain

That was only yesterday
But will I ever face tomorrow
She took away what I`d had
And returned it full of sorrow

That was only yesterday
Will I ever face tomorrow
She took away what I`d had
And returned it full of sorrow

I think I better find somewhere
A place where I won`t care
I need some time to hide my shame
Was only just one day ago
Found what I`d been searching for
Had left town on a late night train

And that was only yesterday
But will I ever face tomorrow
She took away what I`d had
And returned it full of sorrow

That was only yesterday
Will I ever face tomorrow
She took away what I`d had
And returned it full of sorrow
That was only yesterday
Will I ever face tomorrow
She took away what I`d had
And returned it full of sorrow

[DOLCETTO]

@fixbutte: Pulp Fiction ist nun mal megascharf, da beisst die maus keinen faden ab - ich habe gerade noch die Dick Dale nummer "Misirlou" (kein text - daher nix für den thread) auf meiner neuesten Rock Art CD plaziert...

@missy: mein lieblingssong von den jungs war immer "Better by you, better than me" besonders wenn er von Judas Priest interpretiert wird...

JUDAS PRIEST


BETTER BY YOU, BETTER THAN ME

You could find a way to ease my passion
You listen to the blood flow in my veins
You hear the teaching of the wind
Tell her why I`m alive within
I can`t find the words
My mind is dead
It`s better by you better than me

Guess you`ll have to tell her how I tried
To speak up thoughts I`ve held so inside
Tell her now I got to go
Out in the streets and down the shore
Tell her the world`s not much living for
It`s better by you better than me

Everybody
Everybody knows
Everybody
Everybody knows
Better by you better than me

You can tell what I want it to be
You can say what I only can see
It`s better by you better than me

Guess I`ll have to change my way of living
Don`t wanna really know the way I feel
Guess I`ll learn to fight and kill
Tell her not to wait until
They`ll find my blood upon her windowsill
It`s better by you better than me

Everybody
Everybody knows
Everybody
Everybody knows
Better by you better than me

You can say what I only can see
You can tell what I want it to be

It`s better by you better than me

Better by you better than me

You can tell what I want it to be
You can say way all they can see

Better by you better than me

Digging deep … ob das wohl noch jemand kennt …Spooky Tooth und ihr Super-Album Spooky Two aus dem Jahr 1969



Waitin` For The Wind
Spooky Tooth

Lonely is the night
Now that darkness has fallin`
Nothing seems right
And the world is callin`

Everybody`s looking back
As the wind comes whispering by
The`re waitin` for the answers then
Like the time they heard a cry

Hang on
Don`t ever go
Life`s here
I know

Wind called on me
How it took me by surprise
Cause night come upon me
Creeping through the distant skies

Wind tell me what you can
`Bout the life - what I came from
A breeze blew and whispered then
In a voice rich as the sun

Hang on
Don`t ever go
Life`s here
I know


Und weil`s gar so schön ist ... hier noch das 9-minütige Meisterwerk:

Evil Woman
Spooky Tooth

Woman, when I saw you comin`
Should`ve started runnin`
Evil woman

Woman, I offered to you my soul
You ran it over hot coals
You evil woman

Woman, thought you were a blessin`
Then I caught you messin`
Evil woman

Woman, you ain`t got no feelin`
You`re just a dirty dealin`
Yeah

Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` rack up
Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` beckon you
Evil woman, can`t you see where you`re fallin`
Evil woman, the devil is a-callin`

Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` rack up
Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` beckon you
Evil woman, can`t you see where you`re fallin`
Evil woman, the devil is a-callin`-You


Woman, when you whisper to me
All the hurt you do me
Evil woman

Woman, the way you went your way
Gettin` under my skin
You evil woman

Woman, when you laugh at my pain
When you step on my brain, yeah
Evil woman

Woman, if there were other choices
How I didn`t hear the voices - cryin`

Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` rack up
Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` beckon you
Evil woman, can`t you see where you`re fallin`
Evil woman, the devil is a-callin`

Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` rack up
Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` beckon you
Evil woman, can`t you see where you`re fallin`
Evil woman, the devil is a-callin`-You

Woman, when you whisper to me
All the hurt you do me
Evil woman

Woman, the way you went your way
Gettin` under my skin
You evil woman

Woman, when you laugh at my pain
When you step on my brain
Evil woman

Woman, if there were other choices
How I didn`t hear the voices - cryin`

Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` rack up
Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` beckon you
Evil woman, can`t you see where you`re fallin`
Evil woman, the devil is a-callin`

Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` rack up
Evil woman, the Lord`s gonna` beckon you
Evil woman, can`t you see where you`re fallin`
Evil woman, the devil is a-callin`-You

Evil Woman!
Evil Woman!
