Whatcha'll listening to?

Can ya'll imagine sounds like this were out in 1992? Well shit I forget some of you were there, I sure someone in this thread has an Orb LP. The rest of the album is totally far out in a good way.

The Orb- Little Fluffy Clouds
 
Govt. Mule and Grace Potter - Gold Dust Woman (Fleetwood Mac cover)

groovy bass line, not too shabby overall!
the hook reminds me of a Joe Jackson song.

I'm surprised that you chose the point out the bass line of all things from this song. Television are mostly know for their rhythm and lead guitar work. The bassist, Fred Smith, was originally a member of Blondie before joining Television in 1975 after Richard Hell left.

I prefer the Joe Jackson version. It has a slower, less aggressive feel to it and I think the vocals are better. The Anthrax version's faster tempo does fit the theme of "time" however.

I was a big Blondie fan as a kid, but I do not remeber Fred, I DO however remember Nigel (Harrison?). Not sure why, guess I'm just old. Good stuff either way!

He was really early on, before they became big. I don't think they even released any records with him as their bassist. It's mostly just a bit of useless trivia. The early punk scene in New York had a lot of overlap and association amongst them. Tom Verlaine, the lead singer and primary songwriter in Television, even dated Patti Smith for a while and he plays guitar on the song "Break It Up" on her album "Horses".
