Station To Station | 1976

The epic ten minute long album title track and opening song on his 1976 masterpiece. The intro is spellbinding and when those vocals come in with that incredible opening line, there’s no one finer or cooler around than DB.

Shriekback - Nemesis (Official Music Video) YouTube video by ShriekbackVEVO

Sad to hear of the death of Gang Of Four/Shriekback's Dave Allen. I visited him at home in Phoenix, AZ in 1994 to talk about his World Domination Recordings label, and he was lovely. And what a bassist. I could post so many GO4 tracks but here's a Shriekback banger. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bMM...
