  1. Amazed that people don’t know The Orb, they were pretty big in the US too but maybe only in certain scenes.

    Rickie was none too pleased by her being sampled, she had a stinking cold when doing the interview so sounded v out of it which worked perfectly on the song, anyway I think she got some decent money because of it :)

    The other main sample is Pat Metheny’s guitar from Steve Reich’s Electric Counterpoint, Steve was flattered by the sampling and didn’t sue, the drums are sampled from a drum break on Harry Nillson’s Nilsson Schmillson!

     

     

    On another song they sampled Minnie Riperton’s Loving You which also fell fouls of legal powers that be so they had to replace with a soundalike.

  2. Pirates & The Magazine are def my favourites, and I have a guilty appreciation of the complete AOR of Flying Cowboys too. I discovered her, I imagine like a lot of younger people, when the Orb sampled her on their track “Little Fluffy Clouds” in 1990 which was taken from a promo interview CD promoting Flying Cowboys.

    The Girl At Her Volcano EP from 1983 is lovely too where she covers some jazz standards.

    I’ve just ordered - and was charged $16 flat rate shipping on the checkout. US shipping is a real ‘sting’ these days but I like the music sample on the Nimbus West site from this concert and this 2CD set is sure to be good.

    The whole process was very straight-forward. Just hope that the shipping is more successful than the recent Mosaic experience. Amazed that this hasn’t already sold out.

    you should have combined your order with mine and mjazzg :)

  4. Finally picked the Live In Bremen set and I think it could my favourite live release this year, great performances and excellent sound, I had Resonance  and always liked it but this live show takes it up a notch, highly recommended!

    Harbour: "Still pissed that those two recent Tapscott things were vinyl only."  IF you refer in part to the Tapscott Michael Session Avignon 1989 date offered on Bandcamp, that session was made available as a cd in Japan in early 2021.  

    Yeah I have that, I meant the Tapscott + Winds one and the Century City Playhouse 1979 one, I don’t think there are even digital downloads. I found some fairly decent needle drops for the time being.

  6. I’ve just started delving into the multitude of live SM material, I just picked up this and the German NDR package also on Cunieforme, what else is recommended, the BBC ones sound good going by what I’ve heard on YouTube and just ordered Floating Points & Drop from Japan.
