je n'avais pas trop apprécié ce disque à l'époque ... le clavier incongru ..le son synthétique ..mais finalement certaines chansons sont imparables comme d'hab avec d. laboubée .. et cette reprise de wreckless eric est du genre addictive . quel groupe ... RIP
Même réaction ! Je déteste ces claviers de merde (on fera une exception pour le piano (Riders on the storm ou Jerry Lee) et l'orgue (Doors ou Lyres) !
Mais avec le temps le disque s'est bonifié ! Et il reste malgré tout quelques bonnes chansons ... le même problème s'est posé avec More, more , more ! Pourtant là aussi le temps et peut-être ...la nostalgie ont fait leur effet !
Dominique a toujours su choisir les bonnes reprises pour les Dogs !
I don't know about these keyboards: not that crappy after all, nice pop sound to them. Though walking shadows is my preferred album from the Dogs, by and large, I kinda like the approach here. And also, shadow of love is prolly the best ever Laboubee tune. Ok, maybe it's secrets. Or maybe it's Anna-Jane. Or maybe it's... I dunno, so much great tracks.
DOGS: "A Million Ways Of Killing Time" LP/CD 1989
Re-up !
Le 7ème album des Dogs !
Grand merci pour le re-up, Rambler !
Un vinyl que je n'ai pas beaucoup usé ...en tout cas beaucoup moins que Too Much Class
C'est vrai qu'il y a comme toujours de bonnes chansons (something magic)mais la production est vraiment catastrophique. A l'époque (1989), il y avait quand même plus excitant que ce son là...
En tout cas superbe travail avec artwork complet Merci
R_UP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
a apprecier avec beaucoup de moderation
c'est vraiment etonnant comme quand c'est mauvais ca reste mauvais
c'est comme le bon vin
et comme les reprises une bonne chanson mal reprise ca ressemble a de la M.... meme plusieurs annees plus tard
mais ô GENIE avec quelques fumees ô GENIE
il a vraiment fallu que la version originale soit geniale pour apprecier pareille M....
rocknfrenchementvotre
Faudrait savoir si le vin est bon ou mauvais !?!
Tellement nulle comme reprise que même Wreckless est venu aider les Dogs à l'exécuter !
"et comme les reprises une bonne chanson mal reprise ca ressemble a de la M..."
La dialectique casse pas des briques, on dirait ...
Antoine leaves the band at the end of the year to entirely dedicate to Tony Truant.
super idee ça
