Beatles for Sale


That was maybe one of the most difficult tasks I had to do. Although The Beatles are officially the most popular band, many people only know the few (and usually overrated) classics, or just the later Psychedelic Beatles. So for the ones that find their albums too many to tackle, here's a comp. Divided them into Earlier and Later Beatles, with a Bonus comp, the musts that were released later on the Beatles Anthology (some alternate versions and unreleased material on there).

I will have to thank the Seuss for uploading the comp for me as my internet connection isn't much, and I hope you'll enjoy the compilations.
**Many great tracks aren't included in here, as I had to cut my favourites from 125 tracks to 50, so I'm certain a lot of many's favourites didn't make it to the comp.

@Pete: I didn't care for "She Says" by The Blend (not digging the awful guitar) or America Loves Gansters by CunninLynguists (this track has really annoying skipping sounds that play throughout, not sure if that's supposed to be like that...)

As soon as I can think of a vaguely interesting mix to make, I'll post one here myself sometime soon...

Forbidden Colours
A Beginner's Guide To David Sylvian


genre: avante-garde, ambient electronica, art-rock, minimalist jazz, folk-rock, new wave

^ It's kinda weird how obscure a good 90% of the works of the man born David Alan Batt are, what with how hard they are to find both on and offline. I mean, hell, I don't even have every official album he's been involved with myself, but the below selections account for a good propotion of the man's sound.

David Sylvian then...you might have heard a Japan song or two (for whom he was the lead singer), you might have heard the oh-so familiar chimes of Forbidden Colours somewhere before, or you might be completely in the dark. What's important though is that Sylvian is one of the six singer-songwriters that I'll always put a notch or two above just about anyone else in music. Each of the other five have a sense of edge and character unique to them that gives them one over the rest in my eyes, and Sylvian is no different for me. Not only does he have what I'll always see as the joint-best voice to emerge from rock or pop music bar none (well, except the other guy), not only is he adventurous enough to stay consistently intriguing over the course of his 30-odd year professional career...well, I guess I'll let you figure the rest out.

Also, it took me fucking ages to put the two below covers together and hotlink several videos to their places in the tracklisting, so it must be worth it eh

Part 1: How Little We Need To Be Happy

1. I Surrender [Dead Bees On a Cake]
2. The Healing Place [Gone To Earth]
3. Epiphany [Approaching Silence]
4. Where the Railroad Meets the Sea [Gone To Earth]
5. Orpheus [Secrets Of the Beehive]
6. Red Guitar [Brilliant Trees]
7. Ink In the Well [Brilliant Trees]
8. The Shining Of Things [Dead Bees On a Cake]
9. How Little We Need To Be Happy [Blemish]
10. The Rabbit Skinner [Manafon]
11. Late Night Shopping [Blemish]
12. The Department Of Dead Letters [Manafon]
13. Forbidden Colours (the Cult Of Eurydice) [Secrets Of the Beehive]
total running time: 57:02

Part 2: Giant Empty Iron Vessels

1. Premonition (Giant Empty Iron Vessels) [w/ Holger Czukay - Plight & Premonition]
2. Big Wheels In Shanty Town [Rain Tree Crow - s/t]
3. The Day the Earth Stole Heaven [Nine Horses - Snow Borne Sorrow]
4. Blackwater [Rain Tree Crow - s/t]
5. The Scent Of Magnolia [w/ Ryuichi Sakamoto - World Citizen EP]
6. All Tomorrow's Parties [Japan - Quiet Life]
7. Ghosts [Japan - Tin Drum]
8. My New Career [Japan - Gentlemen Take Polaroids]
9. The Other Side Of Life [Japan - Quiet Life]
10. Canton [Japan - Tin Drum]
11. The Banality Of Evil [Nine Horses - Snow Borne Sorrow]
12. Nightporter [Japan - Gentlemen Take Polaroids]
total running time: 78:52

^ Pics = linksies. Enjoy!

I think it's worth mentioning that the track I named the whole comp after's just about my favourite song of all time too, so there!

It's great that you put this compilation. I'll be checking this out as soon as possible. Thanks, just what I needed.

EDIT: I'm thinking of doing an extensive compilation(s) of Micheal Gira's work that will include all of his projects: Swans (of course), Skin, Angels of Light, Body Lovers/Body Haters and solo stuff. I think it's fitting, since Swans have a new album coming out after 13 years. If anyone is interested in checking that out (those that are not familiar with his work), I warn you, it'll take a while. And my upload speed is crap, but I can do it. I'll be persistent.

Just downloaded the first half on a whim. My internet connection is too slow atm to check out the YT videos, so I'm doing this purely on chance.
Your description of it was very interesting though, and I'm looking forward to hearing it.
