“Leave the war outside”

Take a stroll down ‘Amnesia Lane’, and hear some music recorded at an iconic Sydney pub in the mid-1990’s:

I was 24 years old. My DJ career was on the rise. There was war in the Middle-East. But in this venue, the war was left outside.

Oh Tigger, you lucky s.o.b. Australia in the early-to-mid 90's was magical. "No worries" is right. God what you've lost, but hey, looks like it's coming our way too. Let's hope not, "What're you up to Trumpstein?"

Wish I coulda been there that night, great set mate! I made The Big Day Out in Perth in '94, that day is up there as one of the top five days of my life. Really loved the Aussie culture mate, feel fortunate to have had a year to experience it.

Recently I watched the 2000 film of "gladiator" for about the 3rd time, this is a concise story that was beautifully executed - is it strictly historically accurate? Not really but it is nicely imagined and of course Hans Zimmer presents a beautiful theme that stirs my emotions, this piece of music with the almost mystical vocal line captures the spirit of struggle, of striving for natural justice in a brutal, wicked game of ambition & egotism, something about this music speaks to me, perhaps you will enjoy it also?

Johnny Cash put out four albums of amazing covers before he passed. Love how a song can transcend time and transport you back to a memory or a time in your life that you may have forgotten, good or bad, it's irrelevant, music casts a spell over those still in tune with their hearts.

Here’s a little memory-bump for the Sydney Gen-X clubbers circa 1995:

Cool, did not know he did a Soundgarden song. Loved the original back then during the Grunge times (early 90s).

This lady who is a total newcomer is going viral right now with this cover song on YouTube. For good reason. She's impressive for sure. I think it's better than the original. Many think it is one of the best vocal covers ever. (A few claimed she was AI, but this is not true, she's a real human).

Description:

'Dream' performed by UK / Bradford post-punk band 1919. A storming, funk-filled B-side on the 12" version of 'CRY WOLF' (1983). LISTEN LOUD.

Ian Tilleard - vocals. Mark Tighe - guitar. Steve Madden - bass. Mick Reed - drums.

"1919...? Never heard of them...? Well, you're not alone not to have. Sadly it looks like 1919 must be one of the most overlooked bands of the early eighties. Somehow 1919 never seems to get the attention they deserve when looking back to the early gothic/positive punk scene. Even Mick Mercer admits in his excellent Gothic Rock book that he don't know much about the band apart from being a "deep humble mumbling Bradford band who were pretty dancey".

1919 were formed in the industrial town of Bradford in December 1980 with, according to drummer Mick Reed, "the purpose to create a heavy melodic intense dance band with no frills and no intentions". Heavy and intense they surely were. I remember entering the Small Wonder record store in north London one rainy day in 1983 to thundering drums and a menacing haunting voice chanting "Alien don't come in here...Alien stay out there", and over all this, the sound of a guitar obviously stringed with barbwire. This was my first encounter to 1919 and I was almost knocked to the floor by the power, desperation and anguish of the songs. My intention was to buy myself some Killing Joke record but instead I found myself walking away from the shop with the 1919 Machine album as well as the two 7 inches Caged & Repulsion under my arm. The next offering from the band didn't come until the excellent Cry Wolf single and sadly, by the time the Earth Song 12" EP was released the band had already decided to call it a day.

What strikes me most when listening to 1919 nowadays is how well the songs stands up to the trial of time compared to many of their contemporaries. Hopefully this release will prove how powerful & strong 1919s music really was and I hope that the band finally will get the recognition they deserve." - Per-Ake Warn, April 2001
