chrisp65 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 One of the very first bands I saw live, I would have been about 15 / 16 at the time, probably still in my top 10 gigs. Same band later became 'The Truth' and they took over the crown of best and hardest working live band. Never quite nailed it in the studio.

mjmooney Posted June 7, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted June 7, 2015 I've got that album. OK-ish, but poor man's Feelgoods when you get right down to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Oh yeah, very much Feelgood territory. Having seen them both live, that would be a tricky call. Actually, two bands that are both better live than recorded so they really were quite similar. The difference, I guess, would have been that Nine Below / The Truth would have been more contemporary for me, same cut of suit and all that superfluous rubbish that at the time was of deathly importance. When I went to see the Feelgoods a couple of times, I had to go on my own. To see Nine Below, we'd go as a gang and have a different experience. If you've got the album, you've heard his speciality - train noises harmonica! He could get 10 minutes out of that build up in a gig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 yep, can't deny Cream were excellent musicians, but I know where 16 year old skinny suit wearing me would have been jumping up n down like a loon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWG81mdUaKA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 i really like that album, its a bit underrated imo in terms of their first three. i prefer it over whats the story morning glory, not saying its better but i just prefer it. rarely i will listen to oasis and i appreciate them more that way, for the times they were a great band and i think the whole liam and noel thing was great but it quickly became old hat and their music kind of started to go down hill. got some very fond memories from this band.

Xela Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I love it because its flawed. Long self indulgent songs, recorded at the height of their fame, while out of their boxes. Not as good or tight as their first two but still love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
