Classic Indie
Voodoo Ray – A Guy Called Gerald
Voodoo Ray
This track was the warm up tune for The Stone Roses gigs and is an all time classic acid house dance track circa 1989. A Guy Called Gerald also remixed the Fools Gold track by The Stone Roses which is sound, every time i hear it on Napster it takes me back to the raves and indie dance clubs of London where it was played in the early 90’s.
Ian Brown of The Stone Roses and Manchester
Ian Brown has been a character in my life since 1989.
Front man of the Infamous and much respected band The Stone Roses he has recently been evolving his intellect, instinctual pulse and famed talent as a solo artist. His latest single is regularly played on mainstream radio and hes generally considered a masterful psychedelic guru..just listen to F.E.A.R. or any of the tracks of Solarized and you just know hes got it still just as much as when they led the Madchester Scene as the chief protagonists and much more talented than the scally bands that all hit the big time (like are you havin a fuckin laugh) Northside, The Inspiral Carpets (good at the time if you were on acid), The Charlatans (still going strong), The Happy Mondays (Bezz? Shaun and all his e-head brothers on guitar and some mad crack whore like female vocalist who i never liked).
Well Brown still remains and is going strong (whatever happened to Squire? Seahorses..i never even heard one good track!) and will remain a god like figure in many of our minds and will always be the brown in Sheilas sugar or was that Sallys cinnamon?
We all hope Ian Brown keeps the faith and sticks to his guns we’ll all be listening; he once said that the worst thing that ever happened to him was nearly losing his council house in Manchester not sure if that was before he got locked up in Strangeways for air rage offence when he said he was gonna cut of an air hostess’s hands…reckon his past those episode’s now and can only grow stronger. Look out for him on tour and buy his new single..the dream lives on.
Heres his best song of his new album – My Way – Stellify
Footnote: This footage was the first time most of us in Britain got to see Ian Brown and its testimonial to his guile as he single handily tells the bbc where to stick it…

More Cure – Fascination Street
Fascination Street
Well heres a great tune from The Cure in the same vein as The Kiss as seen here on rebeljukebox last week…anyone tell me what album and what year?
Suede-The Beautiful Ones
Suede-Beautiful-Ones.wma
This track appeared on the Coming Up Album 1997. I think, as you’ll agree, this is Brett Anderson’s best effort…i just love that downbeat guitar crashing around as he sings his heart out about London’s down and outs.
The Cure
Apart from looking like a cross between Beetlejuice and that bitch off “Through the Cakehole” this dude has serious stlye and charisma. Robert Smith and The Cure for those few of you who don’t know defined a generation and transformed the English music scene into what it is today influencing some of the greatest bands then and now.
I was hooked at 14 (that was 1986 if you’d like to know my age) having robed my my older brothers tapes (and its not just for those art school airheads). They took us from punk and early electronica and the new romantic scene into one of the very first few English indie bands and later then going on to conquer the mainstream with their mix of synths, drum machines and whirling tube screaming guitars over laid with the voice of a tortured misfit with a highly expressive voice and creative lyrics with immaculately timed one liners to blow you away.
Now there part of musical history and bound to release only rehashed compilation albums to sell their new stuff to the iTunes crowd who accept The Cure as part of the mainstream establishment sad that is as I so miss that raw edge and the underground is always much more fun.
Check this track out: The Kiss taken from the 1987 Album Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me.
More From Suede
This was the second track on the 1992 Metal Mickey e.p., a Suede classic.
Look out for more music from this English Band here on Rebel Jukebox…coming soon: The Beautiful Ones. Subscribe to the podcast for free mp3 downloads…
The Smashing Pumkins
1979 Smashing Pumkins
Since the 1960’s America has failed to provide the world with any decent bands. Oh you say The Doors, The Velvet Underground. Well The Smashing Pumpkins in my opinion are the best band from the U.S.A. since Nirvana. This tracks taken from the 1979 e.p. Virgin Records 1996 and it rocks!! Get it on….subscribe to the podcast for more great music..Join The Rebellion!!!
The La’s “There She Goes”
The-Las-There-She-Goes.mp3
The La’s were classic indie popsters from the Late 80’s and early 90’s. From Liverpool their song “There She Goes” will remain an English indie classic. Pictures of the original album art (from their only Album “The La’s”) and Lee Mavers and the band above.
Check this Fuckin shite, not live piss take video from very early on…wait tell the end when the dumb bitch interviewer asks some wank question and Lee Mavers tells to her to go fuck her self – “About WHAT???!!!!” with proper scouse lads response you’d hear in any Liverpool Boozer today…very amusing! (Also Look out for the coat hanging off one of the guitars).
Why was this band so cocky, ‘couldn’t be bothered’ and bored by it all when at the time (1989-1990) they could have blown the Manchester scene off the face of the whole bloody rainy North and shud have become the best band from Liverpool, and anywhere else in Britain, EVER!!! what a waste of pure talent.
This one though is pure class, as after a shite ‘we cant be bothered’ interview by some foreign bird, Mavers sings his fuckin heart out live with the song “Timeless Melody” accompanied by his acoustic guitar and by one of the younger scouse band members, John Powers of Cast fame. It just goes to show that Lee Mavers was an under achieving musical genius. Get it on…
