TypeO Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Admirers of Gimme Shelter might enjoy these: Ruth Copeland and Parliadelic (presumably that's the great Eddie Hazel wailing away in the background): Merry Clayton herself: And for anyone else who's ever lived their life in black, here's the majestic Sisters Of Mercy: +3 While I'd heard of Sisters of Mercy, I'd never actually heard them. And though I could find no mention of them while reading Type O's wiki, Sisters of Mercy simply had to have been an influence for Type O Negative.

And yes, they were a clear influence on TON, inter alia. I really can't recommend them strongly enough. I think you should consider it your duty to DL & worship these, in this strict order: Some Girls Wander By Mistake (compilation of most of the stuff on their legendary early EPs) First And Last And Always (only album by the original band - a masterpiece of misery) Floodland (big production, touched by the hand of Steinman. Epic stuff) Vision Thing (ditto) Although they're still active, they haven't made an album since VT in 1990 - Eldritch fell out with the record company, and has steadfastly refused to record for them ever since.

Ady Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Right. So then you click 'Watch On Youtube', and Youtube opens up & plays it. So you might as well just post the link, like you did. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrum Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 The 5 - 10 seconds of Cream's intro to "Tales of Brave Ulysess" from The Grande Ballroom bootleg.....tingles my spine every time. You thought the leaden winter (I always thought he said 'Latin winter') Would bring you down forever But you rode upon a steamer to the violence of the sun Gotta be some LSD influenced lyrics to that song. This is one I always liked..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
