Unlike pil and joy division.. They didn't stick with one or two ideas. They sometimes had a hundred ideas in one song. Which wouldve been a little bit hard for the average person to get there head around.. Amazing set of musicians
Ok so what exactly is The Rough With The Smooth? Every live performance seems to begin and end with the same recording as the version from the demo but the middle part is always different. Is that how they actually played it live? Like are they basically sampling themselves for half of the track?
Ah, yes. The Rough and The Smooth is an oddity. It is a track off of their first Demo around 78-ish I wanna say? Hayward and Co would frequently use live samples to perform the track. Like most of their early tunes, they would typically improvise and tweak stuff on stage that wasn’t put on tape yet. Apologies if this doesn’t help with anything, or answer any questions. I really couldn’t say. It’s a weird one. - THA
Aerial Photography is just so peaceful
I think the song at 18:23 is actually an early version of Cenotaph
I’m gonna be honest, sounds closer to an earlier Health And Efficiency, but I do hear Cenotaph there. - THA
Yeah I think it’s very likely an early version of Health and Efficiency
Triumph is insane. And they didnt become as popular as PiL and Joy Division
