Something which perfectly fits the bill, which I only have in the form of a low bitrate file, unfortunately:
Beautiful. Thank you
Itâs all back to his place at the end of the night
Yo, they could settle wars with this
If only they will imagine the worlds
Leaders on pills, then imagine the morning after
Wars causing disaster, donât talk to me, I donât know ya
But this ainât tomorrow, for now, I still love ya
Good catch, and great lyrics by Mr Skinner of course
it wasnât subtle but I think Skinner captured that druggy naivety really well, in a way a lot of the earlier, more vacuous acid house records didnât. Because he adopted this sort of cartoon persona people didnât really take him seriously, whereas I thought there was a weary melancholy there that differed from the earlier euphoria
possibly a bit obvious but Buffalo Springfield For what itâs worth is probably my fave peace record. Found my way there via Oui 3, who I guess are chiefly remembered for the immortal line youâll never get to heaven with an AK47
Think this guy was in the Guinness Book Of Records as the worldâs fastest rapper when this was recorded, about the war in the Balkans in the early 90s apparently.
I have fond memories of the Oui 3 version, but it has been too long since I heard it last, has it aged well�
Wasnât familiar with this version, itâs great, thank you!
Nice sample of Ghost TownâŚ
This is beautiful.
Fuck my brief, the world needs more music like this and less warsâŚ
Edwin lived in Nottingham in his later years. Gutted at the thought I could have knocked on his door & said told Mr Starr how much I loved his music
They did a mural
Next to other local luminaries Paul Smith & Richard Beckingsdale (Porridge)
This is amazing : )
