Saw Nick Cave in Paris recently at the Accor Arena and I was really struck by that song Joy where he sings “We’ve all had too much sorrow, now it the time for joy.” I was thinking to myself, yeah that’s about right.
“We cut it, but never released it. That’s the one and only song [Benmont and I] ever wrote together.” - Tom Petty on “Never Be You”
A previously unheard outtake recently unearthed from the archives – The Heartbreakers version of "Never Be You" is out now as part of ‘Long After Dark (Deluxe Edition).’ Watch the music video, directed and animated by Emmy Award winner Jeff Scher here: https://t.co/XplgXh7cLU
SHEL TALMY, the man behind ‘You Really Got Me’, ‘My Generation’, ‘Friday On My Mind’ and countless other touchstone records of the 1960s, the American whose impact upon British rock can never be discounted, has left the building: https://t.co/OXyEI1TH4z
Farewell to the great Shel Talmy, dead at 87. He is credited as producer on the first three Pentangle albums as well as records by Roy Harper, The Who, David Bowie, Manfred Mann, The Easybeats and The Creation
RIP Shel Talmy. Brilliant record producer for The Who, The Kinks, Pentangle, Easybeats, The Damned and the young Bowie and Lemmy. With You Really Got Me, he templated the way most British rock sounded for a decade. Plus Waterloo Sunset, My Generation, Friday On My Mind etc. Wow.
I just don’t understand how we live in an era of endless cash for streaming slop and one of the most iconoclastic filmmakers of our time can’t get what should be a surefire project like this off the ground
