Candidate for top ten EVER. Saw them a couple of times BACK THEN. Dark, odd, actually spine-tingly scary.
Whilst looking through some old LP's last weekend I came across my 1978 copy of The Modern Dance, so jamming a track cause you don't hear much of Pere Ubu these days - they seem to have moved from radically subversive to radically unfashionable. Oh well!
This is for dad, who I lost back in March of this year. The original Batman was one of his favorite TV shows and Non-alignment Pact by Pere Ubu one of his favorite tracks (and mine too!)... yet I didn't put this compilation together, I stumbled across it on YouTube, someone else must have had very similar taste to him!
Sadly I lost my dad a few weeks ago. He taught me everything I know about music and set me on a path to discovering some fantastic bands that I'll treasure forever. We went to a lot of gigs together, especially in his last few years, including Pere Ubu late last year and we were able to meet all the band. This was his favourite track from his favourite album, it played loudly and prominently as the opening track at his funeral last week. This one's for you, Dad!
