Throbbing Gristle – Persuasion (Live)

I was having a look on YouTube this morning and found this video posting, and I thought, “my good friend Chris might like this”. So, this one is for you, Chris.

I then fed the band through one of my ‘patent pending’ listening suggestion procedures and, voila.

So, here is the list I ended up with. It seems that some of the choices are the slightly more accessible releases by the bands in question, but some are not.

• Throbbing Gristle – 20 Jazz Funk Greats
• Psychic TV – Force The Hand Of Chance
• SPK – Machine Age Voodoo
• Coil - Love's Secret Domain
• Monte Cazazza - Power vs. Wisdom
• Nurse With Wound – Chance Meeting
• NON - Pagan Musak
• Whitehouse - Erector
• Cabaret Voltaire – Red Mecca
• Test Dept. - Beating the Retreat

Noticing that Coil had made the list I could not help but track down their chilling rendition/video of Tainted Love.

And don’t forget SPK’s metal-bashing performance of Metal Dance on The Tube.

I suppose it’s time to Force The Hand Of Chance with another Message From Thee Temple.
