Probably a permanent two-drummer-solution? Or a three-drummer-King Crimson line-up? Just joking – all’s good as long as they don’t employ an Arthur Brown/Kingdom Come-Style primitive drum machine. They came pretty close on N.O.X. though ;-)
I remember Close Your Eyes as probably the ultimate high point of Motorpsycho’s Unicorn gig at Stollwerck Cologne 2012. While the actual Unicorn went a bit under (no breaks between numbers, lacking in dynamic variability, not the best sound, packed hall, stuff still new and thus low recognisability), the encores did it for me. While I couldn’t first identify CYE, it wound its way perfectly through my ears down to my solar plexus. An excellent live number to end any MP set.
New people in key positions? For me that sounds obvious – a full blown hammond organ player, a mellotron muso and a jazz pianist each, added in typical Motorpsychodelic modesty ;-)
Or do they – after all these years – even consider some kind of fulltime lead singer? Hope not…@ Blashyrkh: Thanks a lot for your efforts! Finally somebody to relieve Pietro Alfe from stocking up the MP Archive (mostly) all alone!
@ all: Was about to post this for a while, but didn’t because I didn’t get around myself to uploading anythin on archive.org. Nevertheless I think we shouldn’t leave all the work to one or two persons alone and join in upoloading.
The 2025 tour is now well documented, but lots of older stuff remain either hidden and now unreachable as dead torrents on DIME and Motortrades or on various hard discs. I do not want to pester these two or three main suppliers for the torrent sites to undergo the Archive upload procedure, but maybe they could make their vast collection accessable to a few ready for that task. Who’s in for it? Pietro already does a lot of work, but we could do with another two or three people regularly (once a week?) uploading stuff, now that touring’s long over and winter is coming in. Volunteers?For me the whole Epstein thing is just another, albeit big, ugly affair of abuse (of power, money etc.). As such as bad as it can get – but I also think it serves as kind of lightning rod for several others and maybe much more important developments endangering our life and freedom, that people are subconsciouly aware of but do not adress clearly for several realsons. But I won’t get deeper into this, as this is probably not the space for such discussions. Shouldn’t have started the sufject in the first place…
How disgusting the whole Epstein thing may be – I can’t quite see the relevance of the affair, if you compare the few hundred or thousand victims, regrettable as they are, to the collective climate suicide/mass murder/destruction of living environment that is on the agenda of those oil companys and states behind Trump and his stubborn policy. Not to mention a whole immigrant population living in fear of being forcefully split from their family, relatives, homes.
Love it! Great Rocker!
@ Chien.d.Espace: Its the “dance of the lemmings” these days. I only wish these modern day Custers would go over the edge quickly and without taking anybody else with them ;-)
Thanx a lot, Bernie! Simple content link errors can be a real nuisance – a small wrong number and you frustrate your readers, watchers etc. forever. And they happen just so often by slip of hand (or finger). Luckily not here very often ,-)
Does anybody know how to get the Ueberpilgrim video and/or sound from Nijmegen 25 (wrongly linked on MP-Clips)? Or does anybody have the clip or at least sound on his hard disc already? Please…
@ Joecoco: You can still download the video from the vimeo source with Video Download Helper (with a stupid QR-Code imbedded though) – and later convert to audio via VLC.
Yep – up since August (fittingly) with a little more bass. Just enough – not the full Bent onslaught we know from standing in the first row, but still…
Ahsol Caravan – nice fun project imho. A tribute to those many obscure and less obscure musicians on the edges of the Motorpsycho cosmos. Don’t forget: This band was named while in London for vinyl record hunting.
A little hint to reindeer antler virtuoso Trygve Seim (on Trust us) here in No. 5? Guess so. And the third eye awakening on the Kailash Journey in good old mystical Crimson tradition is called Prince Rupert ;-)
