Did you listen Stu? Sounds pretty intersting Henry Rollins, of Black Flag and Rollins Band fame, joins the Hanleys on this weeks edition of Oh! Brother. The guys discuss meeting Mark and The Fall's impact in America, amongst the usual tales of gigs and studios.I loved it I need to go back and cherry pick a few more episodes of Oh Brother

The Rollins episode of the Hanley Brothers podcast Oh Brother was great. I love Rollins' positivity and enthusiasm I've now listened to the John Leckie episode too. Brilliant stuff. His career is fascinating and, of course, he worked on the seminal Fall recordings on Beggars Banquet. The Hanleys really know their music too - a blast.

How to do a great cover version...
The Fall - Lost In Music
We're lost in music Caught in a trap No turnin' back We're lost in music We're lost in music Feel so alive I quit my nine to five We're lost in music Have you ever seen some people lose everything First to go is their mind Responsibility to me is a tragedy I'll get a job some other time, uh-huh I want to join a band and play in front of crazy fans Yes, I call that temptation Give me the melody that's all that I ever need The music is my salvation We're lost in music Caught in a trap No turnin' back We're lost in music We're lost in music Feel so alive I quit my nine to five We're lost in music Mmm, hmm, in the spotlight the band plays so very tight Each and every night, uh-huh It's not vanity to me, it's my sanity I could never survive Some people ask me "What are you gonna be? Why don't you go get a job?" uh-uh All that I could say "I won't give up my music" Not me, not now, no way, no how, oh We're lost in music Caught in a trap (Caught up in our music) No turnin' back (Ooh, ooh, ooh) We're lost in music We're lost in music (Don't take our away our music) Feel so alive (Feel) I quit (I quit) my nine to five (Yeah) We're lost in music We're lost in music (Melody is good to me) Caught in a trap (I'm caught up in it) No turnin' back (No, no, no) We're lost in music (Ooh, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo) We're lost in music (Da la la la la, da da da la la) Feel so alive

When Mark E. Smith reviewed Morrissey’s first solo albumfaroutmagazine.co.uk/mark-e-smith-reviewed-morrissey-first-album/MES: “Early on in The Smiths career my general sum-up was ‘God help us if there’s a war’, but there last LP hooked me with its poetry and power.” That last LP in question was Strangeways, Here We Come, which Johnny Marr himself also champions as possibly The Smiths finest. The group’s guitarist once said: “Strangeways suffers because it was our last record, so people think there were arguments and horrors in making it, but there weren’t. Adding: “Morrissey and I both think it’s possibly our best album. That and some of The Queen Is Dead, which accepted opinion says is our masterpiece. That might be true, but Strangeways has its moments, like ‘Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Love Me.’ Last time I met Morrissey he said it was his favourite Smiths song.” It would seem this is a judgement that Mark E. Smith shared in, and it led to him carrying a degree of interest to see what Morrissey would conjure next following the band’s bitter split. And he wasn’t disappointed by what he heard. In uncharacteristic fashion, he proclaimed: “The lead vocals on most of side two are fantastic and original, justifying completely the new solo approach.”

Never realised MES was a fan of Strangeways or Viva Hate
You could never second guess MES

Oh! Brother podcast back after a short recess Jim Moir on the first episode of the new series Will be listening this very day After a brief period of rest and recuperation, the engine room of post punk podcasting is back together, this week joined by artist, comedian and long time Fall fan, Jim Moir, or as he is perhaps better known, Vic Reeves. The guys discuss Peel session routines, British wildlife and the merits of offal.
