What are you listening to.................RIGHT NOW!!!

Mental these were.

Strangely listenable.
Yeah..I've been watching them on YouTube. Some of their stuff is very Happy Mondays...10 years BEFORE the Mondays!
Shaun Ryder said they MUST have been an influence...even though they'd never actually heard them until relatively recently!

Big influence on Mark E Smith and The Fall. They did a song called I Am Damo Suzuki. The live albums are the best versions of the songs in my view.
 
A bit of early Verve when they were a psych band, before they put the “The” at the start of their name, before they were well known, Ashcroft was heavy into heroin at the time (I think he was throughout the 90s to be fair, that’s why his head’s gone these days!)… the band were all under 21 years old n’all!

Great pick that. Saw them quite a few times in that era and they always blew me away. McCabe is a mighty guitarist. Remember a gig in small room at the Uni on Oxford Road when Ashcroft thought he could fly. Unfortunately the ceiling was that low he almost banged his head every time he jumped up. A Northern Soul is a great record imo but they do get some shit nowadays
