  • This was recorded at the Montreaux Pop Festival. What a weird thing that was...the line up was eclectic to say the least. This one had Frankie, Bryan Ferry, Tears fro Fears and REO Speedwagon!
    Where did that little sideways foot move come from? Jimmy Sommerville did it too...

    Played album #1 the most of the double album. 2nd album has some good songs, but the main album, kicks ASS!!! I saw them live, wore my "Frankie Says Relax" T-Shirt. Great concert. Still play the entire album at least every couple of weeks.

    Paul Rutherford doesn't get enough credit for basically inventing a new style of dancing back then. It was one of the unique pieces of the FGTH brand puzzle.

    • @ChockHolocaust
      @ChockHolocaust 2 роки тому

      Yup, just by way of example watch the drums; you've got the guy staying on the high hat but we can hear a snare doing a 2 and 4 in the bar, and this is not even a particularly challenging drum riff to play either, which is a glaring example that it's complete bullshit as regards what you hear versus what you see. That bass riff is quite clearly a sampled and sequenced performance too. Don't get me wrong here, FGTH records are amazing, some of the best stuff ever recorded, but if anyone thinks any of these fuckers in 'the band' we saw on TV were actually playing that shit or even had anything remotely to do with its production either, they're sorely mistaken. Like the Buggles, FGTH was basically Yes (with the addition of some other personnel) with synths and a different vocalist. You can hear this a mile off if you listen to the label's other major signing at the time - Propaganda - on their A Secret Wish album - which has exactly the same kind of feel to it. These are absolutely fecking great records, there's no denying that, but how Welcome to the Pleasuredome sounds has fuck all to do with the bunch of scousers we all saw on Top of the Pops, because if it did, they would have been in demand all over the world as record producers.
