The Nice -the cry-

[bogeybast]

"Autumn To Spring" (Charisma) shares 6 songs in common, including this one, with "Emerlist Davjack" (Columbia). "Autumn To Spring" contains 3 additional songs, including 'America'; "Emerlist" only a couple: 'Rondo' & 'War & Peace.' I haven't thought about this or listened to this music in decades. It's so pleasant to be reacquainted with these gems, thanks to you.

Thanks for having posted this. From The Nice i only have a compilation from which this is the only track i really like ( in fact i love it).The other tracks are basicly blues and rock and roll jams, frequently played out of tune and quite uninspired. Can you recommend which albums of them are worthy to achieve?

I have all the original albums on vinyl, & for the few short years they were together, the albums were quite different. 'Emerlist Davjack' can be considered their 'psychedelic album'. I believe Davy O'list left during the recording of 'Ars Longa Vita Bres' (excuse the spelling, it's been a while) & starts to show the classical side. The '5 Bridges' takes the classical element even further in a live setting. Elergy is heavy w/ the live Filmore songs.

Very underrated band.

Aboslutely brilliant song! David O'List's excellent guitar work really stands out on this track.

Thanks for your comment its good to see there are still some us around who still remember them before they all split up I may have others later - trichoone .

[trakmac]

Thanks for the reply! I remember the Nice during my schooldays in the late 1960's. I rather like their version of 'America' and I also like 'The Thoughts of Emerlist Davjack' - An ingenious song title, if ever there was one!

[trichoone]

just had a look at your channel page it seems we went down similar roads in music in those times and i might follow up with another nice track shortley .

[trakmac]

Thank you very much. I will be on the lookout for that!
