- Curve interviewed by Gary Crowley in their recording studio, June 19th 1993.
Recorded on Sony V E180 at SP, Nicam stereo sound. Tape archive 657, digital archive 4086
Curve were an English alternative rock and electronica duo from London, formed in 1990 and split in 2005. The band consisted of Toni Halliday (vocals, occasionally guitar) and Dean Garcia (bass, guitar, drums, programming). Halliday also wrote the lyrics of their songs and they both contributed to songwriting. An important collaborator was producer Alan Moulder, who helped them to shape their blend of heavy beats and densely layered guitar tracks set against Halliday's vocals.
Curve released five studio albums (Doppelgänger in 1992, Cuckoo in 1993, Come Clean in 1998, Gift in 2001, and The New Adventures of Curve in 2002), five compilation albums (Pubic Fruit in 1992, Radio Sessions in 1993, Open Day at the Hate Fest in 2001, The Way of Curve in 2004, and Rare and Unreleased in 2010), and a string of EPs and singles.

wow , what a rarity, do you have any other curve interviews?
@@user-mm3sd3uh6y No more, this is the only interview, though I have uploaded more video of Curve.
@@ScottishTeeVee thank you . Maybe you have british band Agent Provocateur live videos, do you? i haven't found any old 90s live videos of them on the internet..((
@@user-mm3sd3uh6y I am sorry, I have no video by that band.
Thank you for posting. I love Curve, I wish other video/audio collections took digital archiving this seriously and made them available to the public. You're doing god's work, thank you!
CUCKOO is an astonishing album. It’s so malleable and timeless-it doesn’t feel like it belongs to any era or genre. 🥚 I can listen to it now and not have any connection to the past. They were so ahead of their time.
Thanks for watching and commenting
Awesome band, love Toni's vocals gives me chills like Karen Carpenter, this band should have been massive, thanks for another gem.
This interview remains very telling…Curve thought they had created a masterpiece…and they had…they could have made another album full of riffs…a ‘Doppelgänger II’…if you will…they didn’t…it was their undoing…unfortunately…instead…we have ‘Cuckoo’…a brilliant album…not stuck in the 90’s…not living on nostalgia…mind-blowing to this day…utterly futuristic…utterly fantastic…more importantly…utterly unforgettable…
Thanks for watching and commenting Mike.
Spot on. Well said.
"Cuckoo" never gets old. Because it's from the Future.
Agree 100% Cuckoo hasnt aged a day in my opinion,
Well said, the only two albums that I would say are at the same level are MBV Loveless and the Pumpkins, Siamese Dream. Those three are all so heavy, so multi-layered that they're difficult to grasp, they seem impossibly deep and perfect, I never get tired of listening to them.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos Really cool to see a large youtuber on an obscure Curve vid lol
THe women of this era were so musically incredible.
Still fucking LOVE this band.
Their music is still as fresh as it was back in the day.
i agree
So glad that in 2024 there is this clip available for me to watch on TH-cam. Love this band so much! Thanks for having this up because back then I would have died to have all these videos of Curve just out there to watch
Their ‘Cuckoo’ album - hard to understand why it wasn’t a mega seller at the time nor held up as a masterwork. It is.
I wish that other TV stations also handled their own archives so carefully! Respect!👍
Thank You
Wow I love curve their catalogue small but better than anything conventional
Camera zooming in Toni Halliday's face is the best ever!
When Toni looks straight into the camera and smiles at 1:51, it totally melts me!
Thanks for the rip , Robin. Priceless!
arguably the most alluring woman on film
That's awesome I love how the cat was there or dog
Toni is such a beauty. I was mesmerized when first saw her during the Horror Head video.
Doppelgänger was my first love with this style of music and Dean and Toni let me into the genre.
Amazing people and amazing work they go on with… Cuckoo, Open Day,
Cuckoo is so freaking good. Toni's voice and face...grrrr...love her.
It's nice that Alan Wilder had both of them to work on some tracks in his Bloodline album. Great team work.
Such a brilliant band
I was lucky to see them live the 3 records or 1,2 and 4 actually. I love that they have that photograph/poster of Ian Curtis above the mixing board, so good and sad though. I lived in Phoenix in 1980 and 16yrs old. My friend Bob S. And I went to a little import record store in Tempe and the guy said you guys need to chk out Joy Division😮 I bought Unknown Pleasures it turned out to be about 2 months after he commited suicide which later turned out was on my F'n Bday, May 18, 1980 sadly. Nobody hardly, new anything about JD till years later or just knew Love will tear us Apart. We liked everything they did and bought😊
Thanks for watching and commenting
Great upload thanks for these memories, used to always catch these programs at university, the 90s were the best for music, curve were very underrated.
Turkey breathing lol
You're very welcome, thanks for taking the time to comment.
@@ScottishTeeVee always appreciate the uploads, belly at Glasto was a good upload
Toni is really beautiful here and Dean is always a cool dude. This band were fantastic. Interesting they say they took their time more so with Cuckoo because honestly I find Doppelganger and the early EPs way superior
Doppelganger is their true masterpiece, along with it's EP collection Pubic Fruit.
I was more of a fan of the early stuff do. I felt that they were getting back to a similar sound with the final album.
Curve forever
I could take or leave Curve musically, but I was besotted with Toni Halliday, absolutely beautiful
Yep, Toni Halliday and Sarah Cracknell. Two sides of my 90s personality.
@@evilcraftknife5705 I applaud your taste sir.
@@jasonwood3377 Hmmm, I often wonder if there is a scientific correlation between beauty and lack of singing ability.
@@jasonwood3377 yes I had a massive crush too great music as well
Can't believe this was the same woman who sang on Leftfield's first album 2 years later for the track Original, as she looked so different by then! Is she also related to the singer from the 50's/60's Johnny Halliday, or what?
Thanks! This is great!
I'm glad you enjoyed it
Good interview. Thanks for posting. :)
Curve > My Bloody Valentine
Come at me!
Great interview, cheers STV😉
Cuckoo is a brilliant album. The early 90s was a great time for music. Before the predictable crap that was britpop (Pulp and Suede excluded).
Thanks for watching and commenting
I love the Ian Curtis poster, I have it too ...
Turkey Crossing is such a boss tune.Wish there were more remixes if it.
Curves studio looks so goodddd😭😭
Thanks for watching and commenting Marty
nice interview
Glad you enjoyed it.
They had flood as their producer if I'm correct, it brings more balance to the whole album.. mixing and editing.
Come on Gary, bring the beat back.
Gor blimey guv! Wot are the benifits of having your own soundproof studio instead of having to rent studio time for money?
Um...
I miss the bands of this time a lot more than I miss than the TV.
underrated
Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
That was not what I expected to be the meaning behind 'Turkey Crossing' LOL!
Play curve video
Turkey? Like an actual turkey?
Turkey was the name of Dean's dog, "Turkey Crossing" is a song on "Cuckoo"
If you look close in the first seconds of the video "Turkey" walks down the basement stairs..
After all these years, I'm just now learning this. It makes a lot more sense now.
That fringe hides her beautiful face😢
I'd forgotten all about Curve. Thanks Steevee, you constantly bring back tunes from my youth, I'm so grateful. You are awesome man!
Whatever happened to Gary Crowley? I still have a casette of him introducing Any Trouble and The Sinceros on "Rock Goes To College", too long ago to remember. They were both great live bands back in the day.
Gary Crowley? He's doing his weekly show at 6pm tonight, BBC London. Where've you been?!
@@annother3350Back in Scotland for the past 12 years. 30 years in London was enough.
@@vicsomeone Too warm and dry for ya down here was it?!
You can catch gary online if you're a fan
@@annother3350 Sometimes you just need to be home.
Cool
