End Of The Century presents:
I had so much fun with the format last time, I’m doing a Rock Blocks show again!
Ever wonder what Dolly Parton was doing from 1975 to 1999? Me too!
The last rock block show had blocks of Phil Collins, Sonic Youth, Gary Numan, Vince Clarke, etc.
This time around, I’ve got blocks from Eddy Grant, Siouxsie, Belle & Sebastian, Geoff Barrow, etc.
Don Henley, “I Will Not Go Quietly”
1989
That's Axl Rose on backing vocals!
Eddy Grant, “Walking On Sunshine”
from Walking On Sunshine
Ice - 1978
The cover art displayed is for a compilation album of the same name; i.e. it's not correct
Eddy Grant, “electric avenue”
from Killer On the Rampage (Deluxe Edition)
UMC (Universal Music Catalogue) - 1982
Eddy Grant, “Gimme Hope Jo'anna”
from File Under Rock
1988
Eddy Grant disliked being pigeon-holed as a reggae artist so much he actually titled this album "File Under Rock"
Siouxsie & The Banshees, “the rapture”
from The Rapture
UMC (Universal Music Catalogue) - 1995
While John Cale was a producer for 4 songs on this album, he did not produce this 11 minute opus!
Tom Waits, “The Piano Has Been Drinking (Not Me) [An Evening With Pete King]”
from Small Change (Remastered)
Asylum - 1976
