Hello.
Did anyone pick up this month’s Mojo? Apparently Mark recorded a cover of a Nick Cave song. Anyone know what he did?

It's seven years old cover of Brompton Oratory.

Must have missed that before.. Don't believe it was previously released, no?
In any event, is out now!

Not surprised. It wasn't very good - Brompton Oratory that is, some of the rest is great. Patchy.

Dig Lazarus Dig is a great album, indeed. Do you know Grinderman? It is Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds with another name, doing heavier stuff, awesome stuff! |

I keep buying his records, but the last one that really did it for me was The Boatman's Call. If you're looking at his older stuff, I'd recommend Tender Prey or Let Love In as pretty good starting points. |

So we're on to Imitations record and Nick Cave, are we? Imitations record. Eck. Dreadful. Wince inducing. Like karaoke, and not in a good way (you probably don't even need to say 'and not in a good way' when saying 'like karaoke', huh?) Especially that Mack the Knife song. Flatlands is the one standout on that album*. And the spliced version with the singer Chelsea Wolf even better. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pq47_j82iEoNick Cave. Not familiar enough with him to have recognized that as a song of his on Imitations. I too have tried to listen to Nick Cave but... the music was just ... too ... 'busy' or something. For where my head's at presently (long present). Maybe some day. That said, Weeping Song is great. And not just because he & Mark dueted at it**. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOIz8paD4VA Video 2013. Even before that hearing, it's a great song***. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqhOVY58zIo As is Love Letter that heard cause a friend & her newlywed husband had it on the cd they gave out at their wedding (2006). The CD had that song along with other good ones such as Ryan Adams acoustic cover of Wonderwall by that dreadful band Oasis****. The Ryan Adams version imho is better www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gVxRvNfFLgSpeaking of the Weeping Song, I had wondered when Nick Cave's son died (in 2015, just aged 15, fell from a height to his death) that the Weeping Song must now take on an added significance... the lines "Oh father, tell me are you weeping?/ Your face seems wet to touch/ Oh, then I'm so sorry, father/ I never thought I hurt you so much" though I wasn't exactly sure what. I'd looked to find to understand but didn't find. Looking now I see this www.theguardian.com/music/2017/may/04/nick-cave-death-son-struggle-write-tragedy Will read now... will go now *have to listen to Imitations again... don't think they're ALL like karaoke save for Flatlands, just most... **video compare contrast: still Lanegan, gyrating Cave ***Weeping Song released 1990 **** I don't really think Oasis are dreadful, but I am amused by the twitter feud going on now between Mark & Liam Galleghar in light of the prosed smack down in Lanegans new book.... The Weeping Song. Sing backwards and weep. |

You might like his earlier stuff, like the ones that were just recommended. |

It's not one of my favorite Lanegan albums, but I like Imitations. A lot of my least favorite Lanegan songs have come from this current era (which I guess you can chalk up to him being more and more experimental - there's bound to be some stinkers), but the albums themselves are still really damn good IMO. |

Maybe Birthday Party is more your speed? youtu.be/HR5ZnYl9FmgKnowing that he did this for years first helps to put the rest of his career in context. there's still time to correct the error in your ways ive tried, ive tried. grinderman was ok. maybe his older stuff is better? i listen to each new album once or twice when released before giving up |
