Rain

The Sisters of Mercy - Nine While Nine

Nine Inch Nails - Starf*ckers, Inc. (quote from Mrs. Simon's You're So Vain during the break)

Of course. The one bit that really knocked me off my feet when I first watched the footage.

Of course, in an ideal world, one can score something like this...

The Cure - 10:15 on a Staurday Night

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Saturday Night Special

Judas Priest - Hot Rockin'

April Wine - Hot on the Wheels of Love

The Misfits - Astro Zombies

Ozzy Osbourne - Zombie Stomp

Speaking of one-man bands... Great blues player from back home - a cool guy, too.

I remember it from way back in the days (2000, 2001) - the only software I knew of which loaded SF2's. FL, which I preferred overall, didn't have that feature at the time IIRC. Since I did not own a Soundblaster, that was an interesting option.

Elvis Presley - Moody Blue

Covenant - Like Tears in the Rain

Subhumans - Ashtray Dirt

Rush - Subdivisions (I may have posted this one before, I am not sure, but one should never miss an opportunity to listen to Rush).

Noise Unit - Seclusion

What I resorted to when we travelled to Russia and Spain... And when they couldn't find my luggage after we landed, I was very happy not to have taken my precious strat, just this disasembled Epiphone LP Junior. It's all I needed to write and record sketches and basic demos.

I still have this one. Call me crazy (you'd have many reasons to, not just this one) but, once in a blue moon, some sounds in there just seem to fit in a mix (it's mostly the Vox I think). I wouldn't say that they are a tenth as true to the original as newer simulations, but in some rare cases, they just seem to work and to sit in a mix perfectly. For me, anyway. That's reason enough to cling to it as far as I am concerned. I actually sold my POD 1 to a friend in 2006 when I started working with software sims a bit more but regretted it a few years later. I grabbed this 2.0 form a guy in NY in 2011.

Anybody remembers Windows RG? https://jamesweb.co.uk/windowsrg Playing with this thing actually does bring back tons of memories.

Mea Culpa... lol

May have been one of the best Christmas gifts ever. Came with 10 brand new 3M reels, in their solid plastic case that he'd gotten through CBC. (These are not mine obviously, just pics I found on the web - all that stuff is in a locker back home). One of the most intensively creative periods of my life because of the limitations. All I had was this machine, an Akai XR10 drum, a couple of guitars and a small solid state Marshall (the Fender Bassman was just too loud for me to record) and a Boss Flanger for effects. You'd push start on the drum machine and lay down a rhythm guitar track at the same time, hitting fills on the XR10 in real time (I had no clue how to program that thing). Then rewind and record an overdub live as the previously recorded tracks were being bounced. And on and on, until the song was completed. I got so used to it that even after years working with DAWs, for quite some time, I could not bring myself to use punch in features. I insisted on playing through the whole thing everytime. I guess I felt that if everything else was programmed, the guitars had to be "live".

Sonic Youth - Into the Groovey

Exactly! The irony is that the bar where I worked in th mid-late 90's had an internet café section. I remember a few of us looking at people staying online for hours on chat boards and thinking that computers and this internet thing were turning people into zombies. Like a weird addiction. The first time the owner brought that strange virtual reality helmet sort of thing, we were like: "Look at them! What's the world coming to, man?" But then one day my younger brother brought home a demo and I couldn't believe how good it sounded. And when he told me they'd recorded it on his friend's computer, ma fate was sealed.
