Alessi Brothers - Long Time Frie



While this stunning Arthur Russell breakup track first appeared in the 1976 edition of this feature, in fairness, there is no knowing whether this song was actually written in 1976 because it belongs to an undated bundle of demoes that he knocked up in his constantly creative, but far from structured lifetime.


In an era where inventiveness threatened to lap the racetrack rabbit and get ahead of itself, Giorgio Moroder kept the scientists of sound true with his rhythmic sensibilities. The Godfather of Disco was a postmodernist of the dancefloor, pioneering techniques alongside the evergreen of timeless rhythmic repetition.


A band with two bassists, one guitarist and nothing else is the perfect example of the rough and ready happening scene of the time. It was hip to be rogue and Delta 5 perfectly embodied that. The band consisted of an all-female line-up of Julz Sale, Ros Allen and Bethan Peters who were an integral part of a contingent of art instigators, along with Gang of Four and Mekons that emerged from the Leeds funk-punk socialist scene.


The next thing you notice before you even click the bike in gear is the throttle response. I know some elderly trail riders will argue that a carburetor works as well as EFI, but that just isn't true. The bogs and slight hesitation between the throttle and the real wheel, traits of the previous KTM 450, are long gone. The motor makes great power from down low to way up top. The engineers spent a great deal of time designing this motor and reducing the gyroscopic effect created from spinning parts. Their efforts are noticeable as soon as you lay into your first turn on the track. This bike is agile and responsive, and its predecessor was neither. The handling was surprisingly good. The shock was predictable and stable and the front, while it was a little stiff for me, didn't have the nervous, over-weighted feeling that the original 2012 SX-F had.


We live in twee-er times than the early 1970s, so perhaps the massive rise in critical and fan esteem for Ram is simply a consequence of that, but open-eared listeners (which is to say, the public, who voted in pound sterling, and sent it to the top of the album chart) understood all along. 2ff7e9595c
