eFestivals Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) you can blame Radcliffe and Maconie for this thread starting. How can they mention a great act they never play and still not play him...? So enjoy this, and hit this thread up with some more perhaps-obscure tunes.

Yoghurt on a Stick Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 Apologies CaledonianGonzo - I tried to up vote you for this one, but in my trigger happy shakey state, I managed to down vote you as well. This was never meant to be. By the way, I've always wondered - are you actually a Caledoniam Gonzo - in the journalistic sense, as opposed to the life style choice? Or any other numbers of reasons, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyhack Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 This song was already 35 years old when Janis performed it nearly 50 years ago, so I assume it counts as 'old music' Still a classic and a great arrangement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Amazing_Oblong Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 Sought this album out on vinyl pretty soon after buying a new record player. Interesting background and stunning all the way through ; Just one of the cracking tracks off the album - Arzachel - Leg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pair of stoaters there, cheers. Found that Esmeray tune on one of those indie comedy movies that they have. Forgot the movie but I've been digging that album and exposing myself to 60's/70's Turkish pop since. It's a gold mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumblestripe Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 Those of us who saw Steve Hillage join The Beat may enjoy this Not a Hillage composition but a personal favourite and just look at those flares (and no danger of personal injury, please note).

Remember kids, the Turin Shroud is NOT an old Steve Hillage t-shirt I always thought that Harrison got closer to the sound/feel of an acid trip on this song than anything Lennon did. Particularly Ringo's drum sound on the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And live both bands were alot heavier/rockier than you would imagine from their A sides.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
