Happy Mondays - Donovan

[welshhibby]

bonjour...has a french feel at the start

[leushy]

I liked the Happy MOndays back in the day... despite the drug taking. I know it's unfashionable but I don't fall in with the pill popping greyo falldown crowd.

[arahato1]

@leushy not tried it then?

[ElDiabloGuapo74]

[fortheloveoftunes]

Pass da pipe ma brotha! .-)

[trikyfingers]

32,297, like minded people...... sun shine brightly!

[ratedsick]

If anybody knows where to find the happy mondays bass tabs please let me know?

[boo66]

@ratedsick This one's in G minor, the bass line just messes around the G blues (G minor pentatonic) scale. Have a go by ear playing along. You'll find it easily enough.

Tab is the devil's spawn.. It ruins musicians' ears!!

:o)

[klinepatsy]

i remember the floodlight guy....the brave raver? isn't that what the MC kept calling him? Then the pigs made a big cordon at the end of the gig cos they thought he might jump onto someone's head....always thinking negatively those policemen.

[HippieNiecey]

I love Donovan!  Awesome music.

[shawsky]

a poet ! non the less

[anacondavn]

So happy to hear the wonderful songs from this album again. Every day is a happy day when you hear the awesome, real, inspiring and sincere sounds these lads made!

[rhaneyntokyo]

There really wasn't a bad song on this CD. One of my favorite 30 of all time.

[chefstokie1863]

mondays songs never seem to date,shawn ryder on the other hand looks fucked just lately

grate band

[klinepatsy]

yep you had to be there. Elland road 1991, an unbelievable concert, 30000 people, 5 or 6 bands, the Mondays headlining...no chemicals, maybe a silly cig and some beers. An immense day. This LP still holds up as well, God's Cop is genius. But seeing them Live was the awesome with such a great sound system.

[bishbashbosh66]

@klinepatsy Do you remeber the kid climbing up the flood light?

[Donovanjimez]

Asko de Cancion Funk Song

[redwhitch17]

Brilliant..

TW..you send great tunes..Love it!!!!..

Thanks buddie.

[a1974h]

this is music from the streets and a soundtrack or commentry to life on a brittish housing estate at that time. no arty farty art students here. just lads taking drugs and making music. reminds me of the pistols but for a different generation its real

[funkymattman]

@a1974h I remember looking at the cover of the NME back in the day, and they were proclaiming them as the new sex pistols! Know what?! They were fuckin right!

[KIDAmnesiacBends]

@funkymattman

more talented than the sex pistols

[tell1the1king]

ya when you wake up on a saturday morning beside the toilet and then find a bed and then rest a few hours with the windows open just listening to this album...fuckin great honestly fuckin MEGA!!!

[mehuejael]

This is the perfect tune for wakin' up with hangover, 11:30 am, saturday.

[framehead]

THIS IS MANCHESTER!!!

[crock703]

/i guess you had to be there. Manchester sounded like a force then, but from the outside looking it, it just looks like a bunch of kids taking the momentum their parents/ancestors gave them and trading it for some cheap thrills. a chemical life

[67675656565655656565]

no talent

[vegunited06]

for some reason this isn't on the itunes version. but my cd album has it

[jams4872]

is talent!!!1

[JimmygBHOY]

open up the windows so the place dont start to smell

[cheesedominiccusack2]

didn't shaun write this cos he had a kid with donovans daughter

[aliwaheed1975]

People can argue all day about the lack of talent here. Even if you think there was not talent, you got to admit it was a whole lot of fucking fun. Even as I listen to it now I feel like downing some whiskey and popping a couple of microdots. If my boss has a problem with me not making it in tomorrow, I could point him to 2:45 in this song.

[funkymattman]

@aliwaheed1975 hahahahaha!!! i like ur style man!

[MauriceOlive]

yh! Great!

[YoknapatawphaKid]

Best song off "Pills"! The transition at 2:06 is brilliant!

[lainey500]

[wakeo29]

open up the door so the place don't start to smell..

[simonW8090]

[Rawblah]
