"that was amazing..." - at the end....:)

Magical. McCabe isn't underrated - he's underproductive. Saw Black Ships in London, as you would expect, great soundscapes & they really enjoyed themselves. He & Si Jones have been unable to get music industry interest over the last three years, perhaps because they're 40 & their mercurial guitars just don't come in a marketable package. TBS even posted on their site that they didn't have the energy to finish the project! Sadly, The Verve's output may be all we have from McCabe.

@dipidjurah right on. I haven't listened to any of the Black Ships but i am sure it will be good. I plan to write like a 3000 word blog article on Nick McCabe as an underrated musician soon.

Nick McCabe is a very underrated guitarrist. He has some epics like this, and also makes perfect minimalist interventions in ballads such as "Sonnet". Seems he belongs to a tradition in England that gave us Johhny Marr, Graham Coxon, etc. I dont want to be nostalgic, but i feel like the english bands from the 2000s have more or less extinguished this tradition.
It's twilight and i'm sitting in my balcony smoking and listening to early verve. Man life's good sometimes :)

this was not even supposed to be a song. Ashcroft said Mccabe was fooling around in the studio and the rest of them were just sitting there listening to him tear it apart
