From The Past
* Spacemen 3: Take Me To The Other Side ( 10.0 mb) | Walking With Jesus (7.0 mb) | I Believe It (8.0 mb)
From Live At Spielboden : May 20th, 1989 : Dornbirn, Germany
I first posted about this band, Spacemen 3 way back in Dec, 2004 (look here) and decided that now would be a great time to do a repost about them. For me, this band really epitomizes the primal/drone rock ‘n’ roll side of things. They do more with one or two chords than someone like Yngwie Malmsteen could ever hope to do with his “…jaw-dropping technique of lightning fast harmonic minor scalar riffing.”

Thank you, thank you! Spacemen 3 could do no wrong. Even when there influences (Velvets, MC5, Suicide, etc.) were completely transparent, they had something sublime and all their own. Back in 1990 or so, a friend and I went record shopping. She bought Soundgarden’s first album, and I bought Spacemen 3’s “Sound of Confusion.” SOundgarden made me laugh; Spacemen 3 changed my life.
