I saw New Order live back in '87 or so. It was the most boring concert that I have ever attended.
"In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed. But they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love. They had 500 years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."
—Orson Welles as Harry Lime

Mais non- it says 'Throbbing Gristle BRING YOU 20 Jazz Funk Greats'.
What hilarity must have ensued when unsuspecting record shop staff stacked it in the jazz section, only for some equally unsuspecting jazz funk neophyte to have their ears assaulted by the urban beauty of one of the U.K.s greatest industrial/electronic/experimental ensembles.
This morning's entertainment:
Aretha Franklin: Young, Gifted And Black
One of her best albums- indeed in my opinion one of the best soul albums of the Seventies.
A great tracklisting:
1. Oh Me Oh My (I'm A Fool For You Baby)
2. Day Dreaming
3. Rock Steady
4. Young, Gifted, And Black
5. All The King's Horses
6. A Brand New Me
7. April Fools
8. I've Been Loving You Too Long
9. First Snow In Kokomo
10. The Long And Winding Road
11. Didn't I (Blow Your Mind This Time)
12. Border Song (Holy Moses)

Indeed.
Works best with people like Miles Davis, Marvin Gaye, Aretha, David Bowie, Roxy Music, Talking Heads, Isaac Hayes, The Rolling Stones, The Velvet Underground, Elvis Costello Siouxsie & The Banshees- where you have a wide choice of albums (cover versions, live albums, studio) and where the artist or artists have changed style and direction over time.
Or alternatively, you could always pig out on a surfeit of Bessie Smith, Kraftwerk or Stereolab- where the sound is superficially similar from album to album, but the mood changes subtly, or the emotion invested in different songs comes through powerfully enough to ring the changes.
Now enjoying Elvis Costello: Gettin' Mighty Crowded

Really? cool stuff.. that would have been 1.1.2005....
And you can't remember? If you saw Kevin and you can't remember, dude, you will burn in hell for it. I've seen him live only twice, since he doesn't come to my neck of the woods that often. Every 5 years it seems, but I'm always there

On new year's eve? In that case I prolly wasn't there.
Decadance is a small "club" with cheap entrance prices and you tend to stumble into that place if there's nothing else to, so you often don't have a clue who's playing. I'm sure he has already played there more than once as well. That's why I'm not sure.
