The Sunnylaw Jag Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Next up is two ex-members of The Mekons ; Sally Timms and Jon Langford who pursue a more alt country path nowadays. This is taken from the album 'Por Vida a Tribute to the songs of Alejandro Escevedo' which is quite an eclectic album and well worth getting a hold of with performances from Steve Earle, Lucinda Willaims, Calexico, John cale, The Jayhawks, Ian Hunter, Jennifer Warnes among others. This is 'Broken Bottle' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rid Skwerr Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 My bottle's crashed, so we'll move on to "Broken" with a man who sounds like he's trained on Woodbine and Whisky.... It's Dan McCafferty and Nazareth with their first UK hit - Broken Down Angel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sunnylaw Jag Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Big in Pittsburgh, Cleveland and anywhere in between this is Donnie Iris and the Cruisers with Broken Promises from the 1981 album 'King Cool'. Donnie also tried his hand at brewing and launched his own beer 'King Cool Lite' a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda-jag Posted January 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) from the magnificent longplayer masterpiece let your dim light shine released 1995. critically, it suffered in comparison to its predecessor grave dancers union, the bands breakthrough release, but in my eyes lydls is a stronger album overall, with some of their best works on this release. somewhat at odds with that proclamation, this is one of the albums weaker tracks in my shortarse opinion. the albums title is also derived from a line in this song. promises broken ..... soul asylum http://youtu.be/nM21RIqY0Gw Edited January 17, 2014 by yoda-jag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda-jag Posted January 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 the three founding members of this band, are all brothers (morris). they were born in motherwell and as children were part of a cabaret act. they moved south to cannock in staffordshire in their teens, where they formed the band. their first three albums were as a threepiece, the latter two albums as a fourpiece (the addition of a second guitarist (and non-sibling)) and where they also changed into a increasingly longer haired rockier and heavier band album by album. albums two and three are masterpieces. this is from the third, live free or die, released 1987, and was also a single. had no real chart success to speak of in their career, but should have. pump up the volume to loud and rock :rocker: :rocker: :rocker: i love the things you do to me ..... balaam and the angel http://youtu.be/mTrBh9Ltomc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
