Yeah but the tune is a lift of Do Wah Diddy Diddy by Manfred Mann. It's the great lyrics that elevate it a bit for me.

Genn was the one that encouraged him to start the Mescaleros and end the wilderness years. Was Mick in there somewhere too?Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑17 Jul 2019, 3:07pmWhat do you mean by "that"?Kory wrote: ↑17 Jul 2019, 2:59pmI thought we had Anthony Genn to thank for that?Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑17 Jul 2019, 1:07pmMaybe, but it's also possible that without Mick, Joe's "wilderness years" never ended. Which is to say, Mick grounded him and gave him a confidence that he had a harder time regaining afterwards.

Re: ROUND 19 - THE FINALS - V
Okay. What I meant about the wilderness years never ending (speculation and some semantic play, of course) is that the fact that the Mescaleros never had a clear sound from album to album could be interpreted as a continuation of Joe's constantly shifting interests during his wilderness years. I mean, you might be right and I'm seriously short-changing Joe's clarity of what he wanted to do and why. I'm just throwing out an alternative explanation that without Mick he just bounced around because he didn't quite know what he wanted.Kory wrote: ↑17 Jul 2019, 3:28pmGenn was the one that encouraged him to start the Mescaleros and end the wilderness years.

Yep very similar for sure. Agreed some fine lyrics. But that mix is plain awful. Just like EW.Heston wrote: ↑17 Jul 2019, 3:25pmYeah but the tune is a lift of Do Wah Diddy Diddy by Manfred Mann. It's the great lyrics that elevate it a bit for me.

Re: ROUND 19 - THE FINALS - V
Oh I see what you're saying, I think I read your initial post too literally. Yes, that seems entirely plausible too. We do have reports that Mick tended to be the one seeking out new musics while Joe was all over the vintage sounds, so it probably was a combo of two adventurous spirits on either end of the discipline spectrum.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑17 Jul 2019, 3:37pmOkay.

Joe was the one who wanted to do a rap first.
