Modern Classics Vol. 8  #42

<<  Third in a series, and dating a week after the last installment.  This features yet another 'AT THE EDGE' set from DJ Bernard (Cabigon).  This Bizjournals article represents much of the biographical information we have about him.  Some of his mixes also appeared on various Art Of Mix compilations, which I don't have.  The Realistic J-Card wasn't original as I think I was one short, you'll see the next tape doesn't even have labels, though it does have its original insert. >>

Side A - 5/31/90


Revenge - Pineapple Face
B-52's - Roam (DJ Remix)
New Order - Blue Monday (Club Mix)
Fake - Another Brick (Falling Down)
The Cure - Pictures of You (Strange Remix)
Grandmaster Flash - White Lines (edit)

(only wrote in 'Fake' when digitizing this, as I didn't know who this was by.)

Side B - 5/31/90

U2 - Indian Summer Sky
David Bowie - TVC15
MC 900ft Jesus - I'm Going Straight To Heaven
"Religion" profile - "God Is Love"
Kraftwerk - The Autobahn (edit)
Beloved - The Sun Rising
New Order - ICB + Skullcrusher
Robbie Dupree - Steal Away (snippet, uncredited on j-card)
 
 

Quite a good set of tracks blending songs taped from the radio (U2/David Bowie/Kraftwerk) with purchases (MC 900ft Jesus, more on them in a second), Beloved, and New Order.  The real revelation here was MC900ft Jesus, whom I knew was one Mark Griffin out of Dallas, but what I hadn't realized was that he had reformed several years ago.  Here's a couple of sets that you should check out from their reformation.  No DJ Zero, though.

FLLR DAT-01 - A Box of DATs

-
Image
My project for this part of the year is to transfer a huge cache of DATs (pictured above) that contain much that likely has already been put out there but also seems to have quite a bit that has not. So of course here at tapefiller.org the whole point isn't to present these (they will go through the usual channels) but instead, anything that wasn't listed on either the spine or in an insert, grouped in digestible bites of songs. So without any further ado, here's the first set. Nirvana - Return Of The Rat (The Wipers) .   The description can tell it to you better than I can... looks like the taper/compiler had a copy of the Eight Songs For Greg Sage and the Wipers comp. Hole - Over The Edge (The Wipers) [cut] It's probably not becoming to give any credence to any conspiracy theories about Kurt's passing but let's just say reading about the possibilities did pass the time for me one warm summer nearly 30 years ago...Amusing to see the guy still at it...though

FLLR 003 - New Order + ACR bits and bobs

-

Our third post in, and we have a bunch of miscellaneous, simply -lovely- Factory filler for you. New Order end their Saturday Live performance (which otherwise won't feature here, you can readily find this on YouTube) with a tease of Smokey Robinson's "My Girl" - A1 Then the band, appearing in an MTV Tokyo interview when they played Japan in February of 1987, talk about some of their quite innovative and remarkable music videos - A2 A3  - Then the video mix of 'Confusion' is featured, which you can hear here (hear hear!) Or you can watch the actual video, which Warners has generously (to make a few dollars from their catalog) shared online. What struck me when I first saw this video (on the Substance 1989 video compilation) is that you could clearly see the name of the person featured getting ready to go to the show, at about 1:25 in, as this clip coveniently reveals.  ALISE BITIC.   And incredibly enough, here she is today, now

FLLR 016 - New Order Tapes (part 10)

 New Order tapes part 10 of unknown. This tape was the source of a gigographical inaccuracy introduced in late November 2001 with the insertion of "In A Lonely Place" (known in taping circles as Little Boy ) into the setlist.   This can be documented here, via looking at the New Order gigography, referred to as "Waterrat", as that was the name that site maintainer Anthony Leal used for his domain,  the version on archive from 10/7/2001 on the old Waterrat NO gigography only lists 10 tracks, comparing it to the version on there from 12/18/2001 on Waterrat's site. shows the addition of Little Boy, which interestingly enough, was added between "Confusion" and "Age Of Consent", not where it is situated here, where it is (appropriately enough) inserted as tape filler to round out Side A.  The notes I maintain as to when a listing was updated also fall in line with the change caused by the appearance of this tape. version 1.44.4  11/26/01 -------
