Johnny Panic And The Bible Of Dreams - Johnny Panic And The Bible Of Dreams

Image




JOHNNY PANIC AND THE BIBLE OF DREAMS
Johnny Panic And The Bible Of Dreams
1991 Fontana

Notes :
"Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams" is a song by the British band Tears for Fears, originally appearing as the B-side to their 1990 single "Advice for the Young at Heart" before being remixed and released as a single in its own right in 1991. The remix was later included on the band's B-Side compilation album ''Saturnine Martial & Lunatic''
The song features two sets of vocals. The original verses of the song are performed in a gospel style, alternating with the lyrics from Tears For Fears' 1989 hit "Sowing the Seeds of Love" which are performed as a rap by vocalist Biti Strauchn. An instrumental version of the song (without the gospel verses or the rap) also appears on the CD-single of "Advice for the Young at Heart". Some months later, the track was remixed by the techno producer/DJ band Fluke and released as a single in 1991. It became a number-one hit on the UK Dance Chart, while reaching number 70 on the UK Singles Chart.
Although still a Tears for Fears track, the Fluke remix single was credited only as "Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams"

Buzzcocks F.O.C. - Tomorrows Sunset

Image




BUZZCOCKS F.O.C.
Tomorrows Sunset
1989 Thin Line

Notes :
Indie rock band from Manchester formed by Steve Diggle, ex-member and vocalist of Buzzcocks & Flag Of Convenience.
Joined by ex-Flag Of Convenience members Andy Couzens (guitar & vocals), Chris Goodwin (drums) and Gary Hamer (bass & vocals), they released one single ''Tommorows Sunset'' that was produced by Martin Hannett.
After this single Andy Couzens & Chris Goodwin formed baggy band The High, together with vocalist John Matthews and bassist Simon Davies.
Couzens and Goodwin had also been in an early incarnation of the Stone Roses, and the High drew on the Roses' classic, ringing guitar-pop -- albeit mostly without the dance beats -- for their dominant sonic flavor.
