It's true there are some cracking tracks on Provision, Overnite is amazing as is Oh Patti and the bridge section of Lovesick. "Only negations gonna last...
Given GG's apparently useless memory, I'm surprised you didn't try to slip a couple of Free French classic "choons" into the running order. R: "Yeah,...
This is just a guess about "Provision", but I would say that the music sounds more Gamson than Green as Green writes mostly on his guitar. The Chord changes on...
Not sure about this, i think C & P has mixed styles of writing and it probably depends on the track. For instance something like Overnite could well have ...
... If only it were a cycle of fifths. I tried working it out a few weeks back for my own perverted amusement, and it took bloody ages – my hamfisted...
I don't know if anyone in this group still might have a copy, but back in the day there was an actual published musical sheet for Perfect Way released in the...
Maybe it's also part of the 'active forgetfulness' he's talked about. It wasn't a very happy time for him making or promoting that record. Having said that, it...
For some interesting insights into Birmingham gig: http://stealthbuffet.blogspot.com/2006/11/scritti-politti-birmingham- academy.html For a link to an older...
I have the sheet music for Perfect Way somewhere in storage; it was also sold in Canada, and I picked up a copy in 1986 or thereabouts. The arrangement was...
That makes a lot of sense, Richard; and I suppose that some of Green's unhappier encounters with the industry also involved 'Perfect Way,' a track that was...
Yes, jd, I'd go along with 'All That We Are', an understated gem. I think reading between the lines of various interviews over the years, Green thought it was...
As we've been talking about 'Provision' does anyone know what the female backing singer (BJ Nelson?) is singing on the outro of 'Lovesick'? It's not "I want...
There was a Perfect Way midi file hanging about somewhere, easy enough to extract the parts in Cubase or Logic and put them in a score format if anyone knows...
Hi all, I have just uploaded a pdf version of the sheet music for 'Perfect Way' to the files area. As evidence that I'm a complete technological blockhead,...
I'm really curious to know this as well. It always sounded to me like she was saying "You betcha"...but somehow that doesn't strike me as a particularly...
She IS singing "I want ya". I noticed it for the first time when I got the 12" version. Next time I listened to the album, I was surprised to hear it there as ...
I don't hear that even if she pronounces 'want' like 'Kant' because I hear four syllables - maybe it's those voices in my head again. To me it will always...
I always thought it was "Boy I wantcha" on the album, but now you've got me questioning that Richard! "oh what a trip just to keep her in power" (another...
Hi all, Does anyone know if these tracks are available on iTunes (or elsewhere) outside the US and UK? I'd really like to hear them. Also, if some charitable...
