World of Twist - The Storm

Harvest

Harvest …is the correct answer: London Belongs to Me:
“To the sound of the World of Twist, you leant over and gave me a kiss,"

I was considering a two word review of ‘oh dear’ but didn’t want to cheat those of you who hang on every word I type.

There was a lot of incidental noise and a bloke doing a Shaun Ryder impression, my two main observations.

It reminds me why I sought refuge in Jazz around this time.

Listened to it. Like a poor man’s mash up of the Mondays vs the Inspirals. More baggy than baggy. And not premier league baggy at that. More like The Wharfedale Triangle Sunday league.

Sorry, no. In fairness, part of a whole genre that completely passed me by 🤷‍♂️

Anchor

This wasn’t baggy. Never wanted to be. They just came from Manchester and the time fitted.

I always felt they were trying for a more psych sound/look.

Djpekingman

Anchor sorry - sounds baggyvto me. If they were trying to be something else they should have tried harder.

Anchor Have you read Gordon King’s book? Worth getting. His new band, Quatermass III are good. He still does his little Northern soul shuffle while he’s playing.

It was alright, although the dancers were more interesting than the song, and the sound was terrible. It won’t live long in the memory, in fact, I’ve already forgotten it. Thanks for posting, though. Bit baggy.

Harvest

I bought the album at the time but didn’t listen to it much. Marc Riley’s a big fan. I agree with above, more psychy than baggy by numbers. It’s a good track.

Jon

They always seemed to be a part from that Manchester thing. I didn’t get them then and nothing seems to have changed.

Anchor

fulmine No. I’ll have a look. 👍

Great song. Great band.

I spent about 5 or 6 years buying up albums by baggy bands. Some good bands back then. One I never managed to find My Jealous God .

I love the song The Scene off the album. Great choice by the way. Thumbs up from me
