Friday Flac
* So here's this weeks Friday Flac post, I am sharing all of the three albums by The Fireman. To date they have only made the three albums.
The Fireman is the moniker given to electronic music experiments created by Paul McCartney and Youth (Martin Glover). In 1993, the duo of McCartney and Youth released its first album, Strawberries Oceans Ships Forest, and followed that with Rushes in 1998. In 2000, Youth also took part in McCartney's similarly styled Liverpool Sound Collage. The duo's most recent album, Electric Arguments, is available on its website, as well as on CD.
The duo borrowed the title "Electric Arguments" from the poem "Kansas City to St. Louis" by Allen Ginsberg. In Wired magazine, McCartney stated this was because "he's been looking at the beauty of word combinations rather than their meaning."
I am a big fan of Youth and all his work, either as an artist or a producer, I am not a fan of Paul McCartney at all, but I feel these three albums are some of his best work. I will post the albums in date order.
The Fireman – Strawberries Oceans Ships Forest (1993)
The Fireman – Rushes (1998)
The Fireman – Electric Arguments (2008)
So there we go the links for each album will be included in the comments, I would like to thank Concha for providing me with a true flac copy of Electric Arguments, as mine had half of the tracks as fake flac. I hope you will enjoy todays post, and hope you will take a listen, I think they that all three album will surprise you, if you don't already know them.
I have already got the post for next week planned, and it has three complete albums of cover versions by Joy Division, Buzzcocks and Kraftwerk, another post of very interesting music. So see ya all next Friday for more great flac. I don't really plan ahead my posts but with the Friday Flac posts, I have been doing so.
Enjoy, Reb 😎 Links👇
