I would imagine mr B will be too modest to mention it but as he is one of my favorite musicians i feel we should all know about this on the Burning Tree site:
Reilly's Revenge.... Sounding like Darkroom's acid-soaked older brother, Factory Days is a 25 minute improvised piece. Recorded live during a support to The Durutti Column in June 2006, this marked the first time Tim Bowness (vocals, vocal loops), Alistair Murphy (organ, analogue synth) and Andy Butler (guitar, guitar loops) had played together as a trio. Organ drones, impassioned vocals, cosmic synths and treated guitar solos abound. Echoes of early Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream and Ashra creep into a digital-age loop experience, and an England football megaphone is put to use outside of shouting, "Come on, Crouchy!" The title comes from an after show comment when a drunken member of the audience approached Tim (N.B. Not 6'5" tall, anorexic, dark-haired, or a guitarist), and said, "Vini, you were great man. I haven't seen you since your Factory days." Mistaken identity has rarely been so mistaken. This exclusive download is available for £1.50. |
