Hello, I've just this minute signed up for the forum and I wondered if anyone here has any information about the recording of 'The Love that Whirls' such as the Synthesizers, Drum Machines, Effects or Techniques used for the making of the album. I haven't been able to find much out from searching the internet , there were some really interesting interviews from 'Sound on Sound' about the Echo Observatory but they were from some time later. I read that Bill used a Yamaha CS 70M but I don't know if that was used on 'The Love that Whirls' as it only came out at the time the album must have been recorded. Anyway the album made a great impression on me, I have always been struck by the ambient instrumental tracks, I could listen to whole albums of those type of tracks particularily. I hope every one enjoyed Christmas and New Year and I apologise for my awkwardness in communicating .

Forgive me but I've been absent from this forum for a while, and have a couple of things I wanted to raise as queries. The first is about a live set by Bill's Ochestra Futura. If memory serves me correctly it may have been Nelsonica 10 in York. I was blown away by the magical sound created by Bill, Theo Travis and Dave Sturt and wondered if this had been recorded with a view to a CD release? Or if Bill could assemble the guys to make a fresh recording? I mentioned how much I enjoyed it, it was mesmerising, to Bill at the meet and greet that day. I'd love to see the songs see the light of day.

Hello to you all. I've just joined, but have been a big Bill Nelson fan since I was young, from about the time the Furniture Music single came out.

I may be missing something obvious, but I need to change my password* and can't see how to do it. Help needed. (*The Elves of Microsoft have determined that my current password has been compromised. Not on this site, but I've use it elsewhere as well.)

Wanted to update the Forum regarding my request seeking help from a Netherlands resident. I am happy to report that someone has stepped up and we are in the process of getting our ducks in a row. Yet another example of what a wonderful group of people Bill Nelson's fans are! Although I'm sure we all like "Ships in the Night," we aren't ships in the night :-)

I found this piece of musical archeology on another forum. I think this was just before Charlie joined to create the ‘classic’ Be-Bop lineup. Admission for the grand sum of 33p!

It's been ages since I visited here - although I've kept up to date with the reissues and new material. I know the subject of live boots has been brought up before, and you prefer to look forward and not back. I have a very nice (sound quality and performance) recording of you at Uppsala College, East Orange NJ on 19th May 1995. I believe this to be of a quality to allow to sell as a download or add as a bonus. I attach a text info file, and if the system allows me - a copy of the (non music) station intro. I'd be happy to send a copy to you on cd. It's 5 songs plus interviews and to me, the music sounds fantastic. It may be I could upload on We Transfer (need your email for that). Apologies if this broadcast has been mentioned before. The text file came with the flac files and I have done no editing. Edit: If this were made available for purchase I'd buy it. Edit 2: Bill - Signum Natura is FANTASTIC. **************************************************************************************************************** ************************************************************************************************************************** Bill Nelson WFMU, Uppsala College East Orange, NJ 19 May 1995 Interview and music with Bill playing live guitar over backing tracks.

Wayne passed away at 75. We saw him a couple of times live. He was awesome on the stage. He saw me lip-syncing to the tunes and tossed me his pick. Sometimes the music was a bit difficult. He did what he wanted to (much like someone we know and love 😉) https://deadline.com/2024/02/wayne-kramer-dead-mc5-cofounder-was-75-obituary-1235813102/ A couple of great rock tunes Another fine tune ala Tom Waits All mistakes were made by professionals

Does anyone know which Horlicks ad was sampled in Sleeplessness?

Easily missed. A wonderful piece of work.

As I get older I find myself creating list after list. Can anyone help please with one such list? I want to create a list of all the gigs I've ever been to. I can work out most of the content, but I need conformation of some of Bill's events. Does anyone have a complete listing of all Bill's gigs? Thank you in anticipation. It's amazing some of the lists I'm compiling. Is anyone else suffering from such a condition?

Released on this day in 2010. Happy 10th anniversary! .

I couldn't find anything about his passing.* He died 06 June 2023 at 79. *Search found something in the Great Guitar Solos thread but refused to open it. It sent me back to the Categories overview. 😣
