Replay Records

Ok, the genesis(pun intended) for this song was inspired by Chester Thompson's drum pattern on a Weather report tune called Nubian Sundance from their Mysterious Traveller album back in '74. The drum beat is nearly identical but the music soars to such heights that one overlooks the similarities and simply falls into the avalanche of melodies throughout. For our money, Wind and Wuthering is the best post Gabriel Genesis album ever.

Aaahhh.....Slicky!! The great wonderful and loud Earl Slick, before he jumped on board with the Thin White Duke. ESB made 2 albums for Capitol, the second one the better one and this tune the appropriate closer to the album.

The classic English twin lead guitar band(Thin Lizzy are Irish) from the early 70's to this day. A favorite of our beloved "Cousin John"(a name bestowed upon him by Steve Behrmann) who was a renowned drummer in his own right and a good man and who left us too soon.

During the final year or so of Replay, Alex and I played this album constantly in the store as it seemed to fit the mood of the place at the time, this song in particular. We'll be posting more tunes from those courageous days as we go along, hopefully with an anecdote or two to go with the song...

New Wave? Post punk? Shoegazers? We say who cares? It's brilliant. Special thanks to John Kelly from the golden years of Replay for bringing this one to the table.
