Strangely Perfect

WIRE. The 15th (from the album 154) I’ve always liked this tune with it’s rotating chords, sequenced strangely.  It’s The 15th by Wire.  The videos are a historical record, in reality, from the first release, the first(ish) performance and then recent performances…

The Groundhogs: Earth is Not Room Enough! Locked in a room, Strapped to a hollow chair, Faint musty smells, Odour of stale air, Sealed from the outside, In a cage that is six-foot square, Eyes that are fixed, In a glazed, disbelieving stare. Cyanide pills, Dropped in an acid bath, Froth forms a cloud, As [...]

Belle and Sebastien (Belle et Sebastien) This is the signature tune of a French show which appeared on UK TV in the late 60s.  For some interconnected reason, I stumbled on it and realised that I still whistle it now and again when it pops in my head.  I have to whistle it as there’s [...]

While hunting around the web for information on airplane crashes (yes, I know!), I came across this most beautiful piece of violin playing from Ginette Niveau who died 60 years ago in an Air France airplane that crashed into the side of a mountain. It really is THE most beautiful thing to see her eyes [...]

The Scalpels are so Sharp and Clean.. Such are the thoughts running through my head as my operation to improve my hearing looms ever closer.. ha ha. It comes from a track called Animal Bondage by The Art Attacks ..which Crawling Chaos used to do occasionally as a bit of a wake-up, I guess.  Funny [...]
