Gang Of Four!
Wow. I haven't heard the stuff in it's original form, but the new album
"Return The Gift" is great!!! Such great feel. Great grooves. Nice recording. I can think of about 20 new bands moving a lot of units right now that should take a listen and then head back to the woodshed. Seriously, if you get a chance, check it out. I can't stop listening. m. -- mikerekka at hotmail dot com hates spam |

then you should definitely check out Entertainment! , their first album.
Tell you what, saw these guys performing live a couple of months (!) ago and they were still f*cking bril'. regards, Bob "geek" schreef in bericht news:qKQgf.571315$oW2.25195@pd7tw1no... Wow.

and may I add (at the danger of being called old fart, which in fact I
am)...can't beat the real thing! Now that we're discussing GO4...they will (or have) re-record old tracks...to make 'm 2005 proof; we all know what that means :-( To my ears, Entertainment! was/is sounding GREAT (even though I have the original LP from the late seventies and it has been played a bit more more then one time!) all the best, Bob "TJ Hertz" schreef in bericht ...

Actually, the "do over" album is the one that I'm talking about. It's called
"Return The Gift" and it's great! Since my original post I've sought out the originals of the songs and, although great, this new look really does them justice. If you told me that a band was going to re-record their classics to make them "2005 proof" I would shudder (imagine the Stones re-doing Sticky Fingers today??!?!?, or if The Beatles, say, stripped down one of their albums and tried to.... sorry, forget it), but these guys really pull it off and make the stuff sound like it was written last week. So refreshing. The Franz-razor-heads bands should be embarrassed. m. http://www.gangoffour.us/ -- mikerekka at hotmail dot com hates spam "Bob" wrote in message ... and may I add (at the danger of being called old fart, which in fact I am)...can't beat the real thing!
