Sleep

[Prometheon]

I'm surprised Anton has made such a small deal about this, but there's another Rodchester Kings song up in the store, and it's pretty damn awesome. Check it out.

 

Edit: Just looked at the front page of the site. Oops...

You're welcome everyone. The guy that converted it took forever, but it was worth the wait.

[hawkeye]

Thanks so much. I am really looking forward to listening to it. I hope it is good!

[MuttersomeTaxicab]

Excitement!

Yes, thank you very very much. Also, how/where did you find this?

Also, how/where did you find this?

There was an auction on ebay a month or 2 back, which included the casset tape of "and in closing..." the regular Rodchester Kings tape, along with a single by the Rodchester Kings, called Sleep.

 

Think it went for like $150 something US.

 

I kinda wanna line up all of Matt Good's songs in chronological order, and just listen to it from beginning to end, but saying that "aloud" just now is making me kinda think that it might be a tad crazy/stupid...

wow i'm obviously heavily biased but the man was a genius back then aswell..maybe not songwritten but the man can kill lyrics..

[Crusader]

It was sent to me by Reb but I'm not sure where he got it. Thanks to thim and whoever got it in the first place!

i need more NF$

I saw it on ebay, and decided at the last minute to go for it. $150 later I was the owner of 2 cassettes (...And In Closing, Sleep). I'd never heard of this Sleep so I got a techie friend to change it to mp3 format. I guess he had other things to do cause it took him a month, but I don't care, it's a great song.

[chazzer]

awesome! thanks for sharing it with us.

[Shiri]

Yeah, that's really nice of you. And 150$? Wow.

[hum-an-ole]

i need more NF$

me too, I wish I had more time and more to say so it would happen faster...ahhhhhhhhhh!!!...

[S.E. Hardy]

I think that the last three lines of the song are:

"Re-examine all that you have been told... dismiss that which insults your soul.

Walt Whitman"

That's what it sounds like to me...

[hawkeye]

Okay, I'm loving Sleep. It's so good, I would say it's my favourite Rodchester Kings song. Any disagreement? (friendly disagreement!) :-)

[Shortcut To Moncton]

Terrific song! I finally turned it on today--I had to listen to it twice.

 

Ah the good ol days...

[soundless_space]

Alright. I finally downloaded this one. It really is as good as everyone is saying. I didn't think it would live up to the hype, but it's wonderful. I love the banjo. Haha.

[Shiri]

I don't think the Rodchester Kinds tracks are among the strongest early demos but they're nice.

[heyrabbit]

holy vibrato batman

 

singin is too intense for me

[prototypepariah]

pretty good song, lots of pottey mouth which was very surprising. Probably the best of the RK tracks.
