Between Autumn 1980 and Spring 1982, weekly music nights were held upstairs at Bangor's Glanrafon Pub every Friday. Generally these would feature a couple of local or visiting acts playing regular sets in a friendly pub style environment. Sometimes however, these nights were augmented by more elaborate theme nights where special one-off performances were presented, never to be repeated. We have already uploaded one example in the "Psychedelic Night" from 27th October 1981, and now we are pleased to dig out another of those 'special' nights from our archives.
Dating from earlier in 1981 - the exact date is lost in the mists of time, although was most likely around April, A Path to Follow drew on a pool of mostly Bangor based musicians who collaborated in various combinations during the evening. Although loosely thematically linked, the evening's six distinct sections covered a wide range of styles, taking in jazz, country, industrial electronica, psych rock, neo-classicism and even medieval mystery plays.

ReplyDeleteFrom one room to another. I never got in Sarah's Room but my song did.
I added a des(s)ert to Eat before this particular meal. Whether that course was included is no important as the original had already been devoured. Each time it was played although the recipe was followed it never came out the same. Who 'penned' the lines 'get fatter eat', or 'feel the heat'? I didn't as I never wrote anything down then.
In many of its re-creation in the late 70's and I added 'additional lyrics' some of these went along the lines of mmmmmmmmm mmm. This was the last time Eat was played and the last time Scott and I shared a stage. Although I did play a version recently called Yummy, there were none of Scott's ingredients although it still had the Velvets chords cooked by Cale.
