bickster Posted February 1, 2018 Moderator Share Posted February 1, 2018 Back off the cheese now. When is a cover not a cover? I guess when two of the originators play on the track including the vocalist The often forgotten other side of Song to the Siren by This Mortal Coil (The 4AD Superband). Two tracks by Modern English rolled into one 16Days and Gathering Dust Also, we had a debate somewhere about the best B-Side ever. Song to the Siren was the A side of the 7" but is the B-side of the 12" so I'd nominate Song to the Siren as a potential best B Side 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Crook played the synth on that. He teamed up with Scott Ludwing to make... Not nearly as famous as Gershon Kingsley's 'Popcorn', but a fab record nonetheless and prescient of what was to come with electronic music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Schizoid Man" was indeed ultra heavy - you could easily imagine Sabbath playing it. But the rest of the album was mostly gentle, pastoral music - all flutes and mellotrons. Great record, mind.

It confused me after hearing Schizoid Man, because as you say, the rest is quite gentle. The instrumental "Red" is heavy too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, Fripp has always had a fondness for a bit of in your face noisy riffing - although in recent years, it tends to be a lot more jazzy, wonky time signatures, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
