Giorgio Moroder: Déjà Vu

Giorgio Moroder Déjà Vu RCA It’d be nice I reckon if this actually was a case of genuine déjà vu; reminder of what the great Giorgio Moroder once was and sounded like. Instead this is anything else – on its quest to be everything else. This is one of those grotesque and totally unnecessary reputation-sullying […]

20,000 Days on Earth: Film

20,000 Days on Earth Directors: Iain Forsyth, Jane Pollard Corniche Pictures/BFI/Film4 Here is Nick Cave – running about his day, his 20,000th day on earth – here is Nick Cave in a film that is part impressionistic doco, part subverted feature film, it’s the rock-doc as prose-poem, and it’s been co-created with love (and – […]

Poem: Ultimate Kylie

The Vinyl Countdown # 1593

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Murder Ballads (1996) A friend played me this – and it’s when I first really started taking notice of Nick Cave . A clever move, obviously, because everything that is on display here – from the subject matter to the way the arrangements sound, to the literary references – […]
