Cinematic Orchestra

Hi Red

Listening to CO as I read your post! Scary.

There's a pretty good review of Motion here.

Thx for the big tip, I owe you one

Jay

My pleasure

Just lend me your XPS

English types.
Right under yer noses and the only 2 guys digging this are in New Zealand!!!???

Shape up...
No wonder you didn't win the World Cup

The Barbra Steisand thread looks a lot more popular than this one. I've never heard of them so I think I'll mosey over there and check that out. Must be a new house DJ or something

Jay

For the delicious Cinematic Orch cd 'Every Day'

Surely some rockers out there??

Play it loud enough and believe me it rocks

Glad you like

After reading this thread, I ordered Every Day and Motion. Both are very enjoyable! Thanks for the recommendations, guys.

1. You lucky, lucky bastard.

2. There are three albums!

Jay

Is this the band with Fontella Bass singing on their album?

john

Can someone give me more info please, what is this a clique?

snigger

Garyi, you could buy this arriviste nonsense or get The Art Ensemble of Chicago "Les Stances a Sophie" instead. Available on vinyl and CD.

but Nick,

let me tell you I've heard this particular album on radio and just because these silly fellows have been sampling the AEC, don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing!!

John

£10 quid certified club classic chaps, release your mind your ass will follow(unless youre as old and decrepit as me)

1066 WOW

They didn't sample it afaik but used Fontella because of the AEC, Theme de YoYo which is much Djed. Fontella was married to Lester Bowie (I think) of AEC at the time.
You can hear a clip but unfortunately not YoYo here

John

I don't think there are other clips. The compilation is good. The rest of les stances is more squeaky.


John

Now you see none of that made an sense to me at all.

Tommy Makem is from Keady, just down the road, from my birthplace. They have a nice pub.

John

Apologies for being a serial thread diverter

Gottcha.

Unless it is a Sabbath album, in which case no way

Listen to Nick. He's quite stable really...despite what people say about him

Get Cin' Orch' like your very life depends on it.
Otherwise I may have to kill you


FWIW Dept...never thought it was Sabbath! Not that bluudy stupid...
Thought it was Lizzy actually.


SHARRRRRRRONNNNNNNN!?!

I think I must have caught the "hump" off Redeye because now I've got it! Must be some sort of condition acquired from the forum. Maybe related to GNOG (officially known as the Grumpy Naim Owners Group), which pops it's head up every now and then. Usually post Naim purchase when widescreen TV's go on sale.

BTW Cin Orch weazled it's way in front of Gomez tonight

Jay

hmmm,

I've listened to Every Day 3 times now, and I have to admit to being more than a little bit disappointed after all the good reviews.

David

Barry,

Glad I'm not the only one - maybe it will grow on me. The Jimi Tenor looks interesting - maybe one to get once I've listened to all the other CDs I've bought recently.

David

Nick,

Please join us when you give me the 2 Coltrane CDs back saying that you still don't get it.

David

Barry,

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll definitely investigate further when my bank balance recovers. I also haven't given up on Cinematic Orchestra. From my first few listenings it just sounded OK, which was a bit of a disappointment after all the glowing reviews. There's quite a range of styles and sounds on the songs - to my ears it just doesn't quite hang together. Maybe I'll change my mind on a few more listens.
