Why did you do Your new The album, Life, death and Dinis HuberTake four years? Verulamiumparkrangir
I knew Dennis Huber as an actor in Easy Rider, Apocalypse Now and Rebel for no reason, and he stood for counter -culture, but I did not do a deep diving. Ten years ago, I saw his photos at the Royal Academy and realized that he was also a great photographer; I started reading CVs and checking the films that missed me. Then I wrote a pleasant song for it called Dennis Hopper, where each line was stopped with Hopper. I thought it would be great to do the EP, because his life was very colored, but after some band members secretly recorded some musical instruments and suggested putting words for them, I realized that he could be an album for his life.
I started immediately before the epidemic, but I had all these other albums and boxes projects, so I will work extensively on Hopper and then leave it and go back with new ears. She has 25 songs. A friend suggested that I was making a lot of voices myself – an American commentator, an old donation, etc. – and I need some guests. I used to love these Bruce Springsteen Bootlesss as he was doing these amazing novels at the end of the songs and thought, “If we can call, and asked our manager to him. The drama I was hoping to do.
What do you think of the prince’s cover All moon – And Noel VorlongLid Father Ted? Smilinpeter
A prince did that twice. He presented a single version of the piano in Ronnie Scott in 2014, which I have not heard before, and A copy in Minneapolis in 2015 with 3rdeyegirl. I love it when people change my song and make it their own. He turned against the singing round.I I watched the entire moon, “using the song to make a Black Lives Matter statement, which I thought was very strong.
I love Graham Norton version on Father Ted He plays the role of Bonkers in the convoy who remembers the wrong words. There is also a gay disco version, by Boys from a new eraWith a deadly adequate countryside, which is storming.
in Double life for Bob Dylan The biography has discovered that you were invited to one of the jamming sessions in Dylan with her Dave Stewart In London. How did you find it? Bibliophile63
It was 1985. Bob heard the whole moon and seemed to love it, and called us to go to studios. Three of us attended – I, Steve, Wikham and Wano Thousletteweette. Bob was really nice for us. He had a calm word with each of us separately because he should realize that he is precious to people and it is good to have a special moment with him. We played for a few hours. [Blondie’s] Cleem Burke was on drums. The strange thing is that Bob did not sing. They were creating musical instruments later wrote the lyrics of songs, whose usual way was not with a paper. In a quiet moment, she relied and asked me, “Are you still writing songs in the other direction?” He bowed me with a kind of shine in his eye – as if he knew what he meant – and said, “Yes, I do.”
What is the legacy of the Dennis Hopper generation? Mathopod
Culturally, we are still dealing with what happened in the fifties and sixties. There was a march of technology, massive production and civilization of civilizations: the experience of black African Americans meeting the white experience and the experience of Spanish origin. Then consciousness evolved: birth control pills, women’s liberation. Everything was in a melting crucible of amazing music and cultural progress. Jimmy Hendricx’s guitar playing is a good metaphor for his time, and we are still joining. It is strange that we now have a violent reaction with Maga and all of that. People try to re -advance, but this will not succeed because humanity should move forward, and we will do so.
When you are released LiarDo you think it is possible to elect Trump The president again? Paulwb1960
He wrote soon from his second isolation. When he appeared in 2022, I always had this awe that infiltrated that Biden’s presidency would turn into a moment between Trump’s nightmares.
Did you really like to be a hunter? Or in fact “Brakeman on the feverish Horlelene train”? DejongandThestless
There was a moment in my life where my personal circumstances were sufficiently confused and confused for me, so I would like it exactly. Unfortunately, I didn’t go and do that. I put it in a song instead.
What are your memories of adolescence in AirAnd did you ever think about doing an album inspired by Burns as you did with the Yeats [An Appointment With Mr Yeats, 2011]? Chriswa29
Burns have been several times, so there is not much fresh land for me. Yetz felt. Air was very beautiful geographically, a great old city to be a teenager who taught me a lot of life lessons. The members of the first squad of AYR were. My first girlfriend was Air women. I owe the city a lot.
My first disturbed your old band was called Another beautiful face. How do you look back in the days of the villain in Edinburgh? M1KEM5
I was living in Edinburgh and in my first suitable band. I had a job at the HMV store to earn money to buy tools. The moment we got a standard deal I was outside, but it was a golden time: great, uncomplicated pleasure. I and the guitar player lived in a bed with an Iranian bus, and if you have any continuous guests after 10 pm, she will move on the stairs. It is unfortunate, poor, circulating! I think about those times with a lot of help.
“Your coat is made of magic / and around the angels your table.” Beautiful. He is When you go away For anyone in particular? Ianjamescameron
I grew up from another song, killing my heart, which is the best in Waterboys and the fisherman’s box group. I didn’t think we had the final version, so I stole most of the songs and put new music for her. The killing of my heart was about my own relationship at the time with my partner who became my first wife, a relationship that made a member of the band, and a member of my family erred. But when it disappears, the reflection is more: he left all the pain in killing my heart.
What does he do? Spider I mean, and do you return to it before? Captain L.
Spiddal is a village on the northern coast of the Galloway Gulf in the Irish language area [where some of Fisherman’s Blues was recorded]. Last summer I was taking an interview with a documentary on a bar called Hyuz and everything came back to me. The magic of the place, the Atlantic light, the feeling of freedom and the magic of the spoken world. We got a new studio tour there and I was fond of again, and thinking: Can we return and achieve a record? It is another world and an inspiring place, so something may happen.
When did you hear for the first time the phrase “noise on the ear”, and did you have to ask what does that mean? Strodog
It was a phone conversation with a member of the Waterboys crew who had a young boy named Beni. We were vibrant on the phone, and while we were expecting, I said: “Oh, and we give the influence of the head from me.” This does not mean literally; It is a symbol of affectionate “hello”. I thought, “I love this phrase. I will use it.”
Red Army Blues Maybe my favorite Waterboys. You sing it with a real condemnation, although it is written from another person’s point of view. How did the song appear? Wyngatecarpeting
I was fascinated by the Second World War and read two books that inspire that song. One of them was the forgotten soldier from Jay Sager, a French extract that was formulated in SS. The other was the memoirs of Vikenty Angarov, a Russian story that fought in the Red Army. Because he saw how people lived in the West, he threatened Stalin’s control. So many soldiers who fought for Russia were sent and defeated fascism to Gulags. I was greatly affected by both books, so I collected the song from the perspective of the Russian soldier, but using the names of places and accidents from the forgotten soldier.
Wikipedia says he was there More than 80 members of Waterboys, either as shareholders in albums or tours. What is it necessary to be a Boy? 69Theater
It is a matter of pride for me that we have more members than any other group at all! I think the closest competitor is Santana. I am looking for people who have a position or personality, and they should be multi -use enough to play all different types of music that deal with Waterboys. My skills have evolved as a group leader, so I now find that it is much easier to bring all the music I need.
Did you know early on that? Karl and Winger It was a talent more suitable for his own team, and did she stay friendly after he left to form World Party? Tacinaride
I always knew that he was a potential squad leader. The first time I went to his apartment in London, he had a reel registered to return, and I played some of the songs he was working on and was singing. I always knew that he would go to his own albums. After he left the band, I have not seen it for years. After that, when he lived in New York in the early 1990s, we met, we ate a meal and played each other our new records. But he had this bad habit of positioning in the interviews in a very personal way, and this was not really a good relationship.
will Steve Wakeham Be in Waterboys again? Sharon
probably. It is on one song from Dennis Hopper, but The Fiddle has a very special sound and has very special feelings. I spent 25 years singing with a very talented and wonderful violin player who can reflect everything I do and go with me everywhere. Currently, it is a really good experience for each of us not to have to work alongside each other. For me, it is somewhat similar to life after violin – or is probably a life between violin ages. We are still the best colleagues.
