Auto_Da_Fe 25th Mar 2015 | | Live MusicMen Diamler @ The New Adelphi | I seem to remember him saying at this gig that it would be his last ever London performance

Auto_Da_Fe 18th Mar 2015 | | Live MusicDavid Thomas @ NFT 2 | Jane Bom-Bane's was the only performance of music. Bob Holman read poetry, and David Thomas gave a lecture (very) loosely on the subject of the overarching importance of The Beach Boys
|
Auto_Da_Fe 17th Mar 2015 | | Live MusicRamones @ The Roundhouse | Probably the best gig I've ever seen
|
Auto_Da_Fe 17th Mar 2015 | | Live MusicDarts @ Clapham Common Bandstand | I assumed, from their names, that the top two acts were punk bands. I was wrong...
|
Auto_Da_Fe 16th Mar 2015 | | Live MusicStiff Little Fingers @ The Lyceum | Hyped at the time as The Gig of the Century
|
Auto_Da_Fe 11th Mar 2015 | | Live MusicThe Higsons @ The Royalty, Southgate | I think Buzzz supported this one, but am not 100% sure (it was a long time ago)
|
Auto_Da_Fe 8th Mar 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumApril Wine - April Wine | April Wine cover Hot Chocolate... I'm curious - will try to hear that.
|
Auto_Da_Fe 6th Mar 2015 | | Live MusicThe Higsons @ The Lyceum | One or both of Dislocation Dance and Design For Living also on the bill. I've found sources with each, but not both. I don't remember either.
|
Auto_Da_Fe 5th Mar 2015 | | Live MusicThe Jesus And Mary Chain @ Brixton Academy | Yours is on 7th and mine is on 5th, I think.. the same bill played on 6th too. I think the Rollercoaster difference is because I ascribed it to Tour and you to Event...

|
Auto_Da_Fe 5th Mar 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumRicky Segall And The Segalls - Ricky Segall And The Segalls | "Surely he didn't REALLY write these songs himself, did he?"
Nope. Rick, who wrote songs = father of Ricky, who sings them.
|
Auto_Da_Fe 3rd Mar 2015 | | Live MusicFaust @ The Garage | They set off some evil smelling smoke at the end of the gig which drove the audience out of th venue (and ruined their merch income, at least from me)
|
Auto_Da_Fe 3rd Mar 2015 | | Live MusicGodspeed You! Black Emperor @ Union Chapel | perfect meeting of artist and venue
|
Auto_Da_Fe 1st Mar 2015 | | Live MusicVetiver @ The Spitz | Devendra Banhart joined Vetiver on stage at the end
|
Auto_Da_Fe 27th Feb 2015 | | Live MusicPusherman @ The Boat Race | date seems a bit unlikely on this one
|
Auto_Da_Fe 27th Feb 2015 | | Live MusicThe Yeasayer @ The Nest | Psychedelic Horseshit ran WAY over time with their childish self indulgent balderdash
|
Auto_Da_Fe 27th Feb 2015 | | Live MusicSteeleye Span @ Queen Elizabeth Hall | Morris dancers in support as I recall
|
Auto_Da_Fe 26th Feb 2015 | | Live MusicThe Michael Nyman Band Feat. David McAlmont @ Union Chapel | I believe this is how the concert was billed. Album was credited to McAlmont & Nyman.
|
Auto_Da_Fe 26th Feb 2015 | | Live MusicPort O'Brien @ The Scala | One of Port O'Brien's birthday - and a cake was delivered on stage
|
Auto_Da_Fe 26th Feb 2015 | | Live MusicLe Volume Courbe @ Cafe OTO | Poor quality photos, I know - but it was very dark, and I doubt better exist from this event
|
Auto_Da_Fe 26th Feb 2015 | | Live MusicThurston Moore @ The New Adelphi | 3rd on bill perhaps Daniel Land? (Plays ebow and has worked with MC)
|
Auto_Da_Fe 24th Feb 2015 | | Live MusicComus @ Islington Assembly Hall | a fine and full review: here
|
Auto_Da_Fe 13th Feb 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumRockin' Dupsee - Rockin' Dupsee | Is this alternate name/spelling for Rocking Dopsie?
|
Auto_Da_Fe 5th Feb 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumDarren Hayman - Chants For Socialists | my camera has rendered the color very capriciously on these. All have the same warm cream background, closest to the left hand side of the second image. Don't hesitate to replace if you can do better!
|
Auto_Da_Fe 10th Dec 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumDeep Purple - Come Taste The Band | How bizarre - they've looked at the sleeve rather than the detail. so "Come Taste the Band" has become "Come Taste the Wine". (To my taste, an improvement!)
|
Auto_Da_Fe 22nd Oct 2014 | | Music Memorabilia[none] - Paper Bag For 12-inch Records | the guy who sold it kept a concession to put games machines (fruit machines?) in some of the stores. I remember him coming around to Our Price Queensway, when I worked there in 81 or 82. to empty out the coins. Always arrived in a Rolls Royce.
|
Auto_Da_Fe 20th Oct 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Bee Gees - Idea | Exists with Made in England labels - I've just added them.
