New Junkyard single - "Faded"

Always had a bit of a soft spot fort these guys...Loved their debut album and their second album wasn't too bad. Then they sorta feel off my radar.

 

New single released and sounds pretty similar to their earlier stuff to me. Not sure it's anything overly special but I kinda like the sound of it. If they put out a full album I'd probably give it a chance...

I owned their first two albums for about a decade I reckon, without every really being a fan. What was the name of the ballad on the second album I liked, I wonder?

 

Anyway, never really a fan at all, but I was curious to hear this. Not a bad song, but definitely not the kind of stuff I'm interested in. And yes, age has been cruel to them...

Indeed and I too am a HUGE fan of the band. always wish I could have scored those XXX and Joker albums when the guitarist was actually making legit ones and shipping them out. Don't have the albums but I do have all the tunes from them plus. I do have the others though and spin them regularly...

The Joker came from their site a few years ago. The XXX is most definitely a bootleg. I can't remember where I got it but I think it was GEMM. It was cheap so I just accepted it so I could have the songs. I do wish I could find a legit one to replace it.

I think the band is making them again, cdr's of course.

 

I recall a number of years back their was a big to do about the guitarist not shipping discs and keeping peoples dough. Apparently he did ship out what he had (???) and then commenced to ripping folks off.

 

Being pessimistic like your GEMM copy I'd wager you'd be hard pressed to find an "original" issue of either one.

 

Needless to say the band has always been a favorite for me and I am glad to hear some new music. I think David sounds relatively similar to the olden days on the video sample in this thread.

 

This is one band I am saddened to report that I never saw live. :(

I'll probably get it but I think I would like it better if Chris Gates was still there.

I'm sure he would round out the writing a bit in JY, but he should NEVER "sing" and I would recon his questionable business practices and/or his questionable human being behavior is the crux for his not being in JY any longer.

  • 2024 HH Donation Drive

    Please support Heavy Harmonies! The donations goal is the out-of-pocket expenses to run the main site and this board for calendar year 2024.

    • Well... I mean... it's true.   Time once again to nag/beg/plead/insult (wait, what?) to help out covering Heavy Harmonies' expenses. Costs for the site run roughly US$195 a month, roughly the same as last several years.  So when I say "costs", what do I mean? It's the out-of-pocket expenses to keep Heavy Harmonies running: server lease, bandwidth, hosting support, and the subscription for this forum software, domain registration. The 2023 drive did pretty well, reaching 83% of goal of covering the annual costs. Let's see if we can meet, or better yet, beat that goal! The donation drive will run through Halloween, October 31.   Anyone who makes a single donation of $20 or more and has a board username will be added to the group "2024 Donors". This gets you the following benefits: A nice shiny icon in your profile showing that you are an HH Donor for 2024:  An increase in the size of your PM storage from 200 to 500 messages An increase in image attachment/upload storage from 20MB to 50MB Exempt from the search flood control (normally if you try and do a search more than every 10 seconds, you get an annoying little "please wait" message) No time limit on editing your own posts! This will especially be useful for those with trade/sale lists as you'll be able to edit them rather than posting revised versions. A warm fuzzy feeling inside that you are helping support Heavy Harmonies! If you donate $50 during the drive, either as a single donation or across multiple donations, you will be added to the group "2024 Gold Donors". This gets you the following in addition to the above: A bigger, shiny badge:  All your posts will be highlighted, because if you show this much dedication to HH, what you have to say is obviously more more important! (just kidding, but your posts will be accentuated). The ability to create a forum "signature" that will be added to all of your posts. If you donate using buttons on the main site, please put your board username in the notes section, and if you donate from here on the forum, please PM me the email address that you sent the donation from! Otherwise I have no way to tie your donation to your membership here on the board. If you are currently in the 2023 donor groups but don't wish to donate this year (or can't), at the beginning of the donation drive, your group membership features will revert to the regular non-donator membership group. Membership in the 2024 Donors group will last until the beginning of next year's donation drive, at which point you can donate again to remain in the Donors group with the same benefits, or revert back to your current member group. PayPal donation buttons are found at the top of all the pages on the main site and here on the forum on the right side at the top, or if you'd prefer to send a money order, check, or cash (not recommended, but I know some people prefer to do so), you can make payable to Dan Harding and send to: Heavy Harmonies P.O. Box 17021 Urbana, IL 61803 USA If you can't give $20, give $10... if you can't give $10, give $5... it's just once a year. (And if you happen to be fortunate enough to be earning gobs of money, please feel free to give bunches! I'm not opposed to having a sugar daddy... or seven.) As always, your support is greatly appreciated! -Dan
