Marky Dread Remasters

[matedog]

Vince is definitely a character. I've never had the chance to read his book. Is the story about him shagging Bernie's girlfriend in a parking lot true - or just a rock legend. I like to think it was true, ha ha!

His book is a good read but is definitely exaggerated.

Curious to know all of your thoughts on his claim that Paul only played bass on the first album. I know Norman Watt-Roy filled in at least on Sandinista - but thought that was a scheduling thing. Also - I believe Vince claims Paul's bass amp was always turned way down on stage.

A thread here from a few years back discussing what Paul may/may not have played...

viewtopic.php?f=7&t=9979&p=396193&hilit=paul#p396193

That was a good thread. Enjoyed all the input from Kory, Hes, Teddy, etc.

I must catch up with these remasters, just trying to find the time. I know some people like FLAC but it is a bit of a pain in the arse for me, my converter takes ages. Definitely gonna make the effort though, can't beat the Marky magic dust.

What do you convert to?

Mp3 320, for ease of putting on cd, phone etc.

OK Mr. Heston you KISS loving, Sunderland supporting, Pot Noodle munching, Mp3 listening heathen! Here are all the remasters in 320 Mp3 just for you.

You do all realize that Mick played guitar and bass at the same time when The Clash performed live. Seriously Paul plays bass on White Riot.

Good enough proof for me! Plus - not many people looked as cool on stage as Simmo!

Paul sure had some cool moves and the look.

He obviously played bass on the live tracks Marky, but you have to really listen hard to discern any of it and on that Beaconsfield video he is following the guitar line. That said, i think by 82 he was quite comfortable with it.

We all know that Paul learned to play bass rote fashion and by copying bass lines from his fave reggae tracks. However I believe he plays on the first album and all others to a degree. I appreciate that someone posted that White Riot bass cover from Youtube saying it was tricky but here's Janie Jones. Now I'm no musician but I reckon that would take me about 10 mins to copy rote fashion.

Quite. And you can tell that he plays on that one. Remote Control is another dead giveaway. White Riot however, just can't see it.

I've had the White Riot bass line stuck in my head all day. I initially dismissed Paul - but after listening to the live track Marky posted - I feel like it was Paul. I think we dismiss him (I've done it) as a musician and no - he was not a natural musician...but I think he learned the bass and being a creative guy - I think he did something with that. Think of it this way - we hear it and think there is no way he could have put that track down...but I think maybe we're hearing his natural, crazy, unnatural, bass playing. I truly think he played pretty much everything until S!. I might be wrong - but it is what I want to believe.

It's great to have these on the iPod. They make me want to turn up my electric guitar and play loud, like a teenager. Thanks for all these.

No problem any further uploads I will add an Mp3 file also.

Gave Tribal Stomp a good blast today, a huge improvement sound-wise on the last time I heard this. The band sound a bit unusually tentative though.
