“I hope the album has the effect on listeners that it’s had on me. It bursts out of the speaker, and I get swept up with it. It’s a complicated record, but it’s also deeply and joyously infectious. There is never a masterplan when we make a record. The records rather reflect back the emotional state of the writers and musicians who played them. Listening to this, I don’t know, it seems we’re happy.”
💿 03/11/1986, #NickCaveAndTheBadSeeds sortent leur quatrième album studio "Your Funeral... My Trial".
L’album est enregistré entre Londres et Berlin durant l’été 86.
La chanson éponyme de l'album est un hommage à la chanson de Sonny Boy Williamson.
#GreatAlbums1990s – #NickCaveAndTheBadSeeds – #LetLoveIn (1994). The middle disc of Cave’s furious five during the 90s sees him balancing the gothic intensity of 1992’s Henry’s Dream with the sparser roots he’d favour by 1997’s The Boatman’s Call. “Do You Love Me?” channels Scott Walker torch in an anthemic opening, while “Red Right Hand” follows Tom Waits down a shady back alley. “Jangling Jack” and “Thirsty Dog” rage cathartically in the middle of the set.
So let's start this false Monday with #Songs4BrokenHearts. Why? Because it is #TuneTuesday and @Kitty pulled @pgs & @satsuma's prompt out of her tin can.
I will nominate this melancholic beauty of a ballad from a great album called The Boatman's Call:
