As a young teenage goth I used to stay up late listening to John Peel instead of sleeping like my parents thought. I’d arrive at school the next morning completely knackered but with another mix tape full of great music! Wish I’d kept them but I’ve moved around a fair bit over the years and had to travel light.
Now it's the time to rediscover your old passion. These songs are the ones that made us fly.
A life well-lived Hazel… had one of those too!
@@coenvanhall6598 music has always been my passion, no re-discovery necessary ☺️ tho John Peel is irreplaceable as a champion of little known but brilliant alt musicians.
@@JulesN580 absolutely and music is at the heart of it all 🙏🏼
A language all their own beautiful Cocteau twins
Real instruments, real ethereal, real music.
@Thejimbobs that is good to know thanks
@Thejimbobs E-mu Drumulator, as far as I know plus Yamaha DX7, drums sample being from John Bonham (lol).
Ethereal, beautiful soundscapes. I love the way the music and the singing weave around each other. It's like nothing else I've ever heard.
Heaven.
Elizabeth Fraser's voice is truly the
"spirit of ecstasy" 🧡
Elizabeth Fraser
voice is just pure heaven !
Cocteau Twins are definitely in my 80's top 10.
i m alright
It's fucking amazing they weren't well known. I only found out about them 2 or 3 years ago, and that's baffling to me. I should have heard them earlier. Everyone who knows about them should spread the word.
@@NameNotAlreadyTaken2 They are very well known and are an iconic band that has influenced every dreampop, shoegaze and post rock band on the planet. Robin Guthrie literally wrote the blueprint for dreampop. Not to mention that every worship guitarist and and “ambient guitarist” on the planet are directly/indirectly borrowing everything they do from his playbook regardless of if they realize it or not. It’s less a question of them not being known and more a question of people needing to broaden their own musical horizons because there are scores of bands out there that have and are writing amazing music that many people will never hear because their musical tastes and desire to find new stuff is myopic in nature.
@@softlightsymphonyband I don't think many people my age have ever heard of them, though. I know they were never played on our local alternative station in the 90s. RUclips seems like the only kind of place I would ever have been exposed to them.
After new wave came, I just circulated wider musical circles. I just assumed it was my time to find/hear CT. Happy my ears and mind latched on to this tremendous band. Happy am I!
The thing is, together - they are the gift
Beep-Bo, oh i remember this session version like yesterday! Love it. Thank you, so glad these sessions have an accessible home in the cloud now :)

I grew up in a Pentecostal church speaking tongues.....this group opened my eyes

7.13 perfection
One of my favs❤oz
The eighties.
One of a kind band from the 80's, I used to have all their albums. The Pink Opaque is my favourite.

Yayay!!
I read somewhere that Peep-bo (Ivo) was written for John Peel. I always imagine it's for a canine companion, accompanied by barking sounds(?)
Peep-bo? Sounds like a childrens game, hide & seek or something.
I still don't understand why Simon Raymonde doesn't like "Treasure".
I was listening to a short biography on YT and it was stating that the album was rushed to be finished so maybe that's why they dislike it. Guthrie later described it as an abortion
Probably because of that Yamaha DX7 sound that the whole LP is practically made of.
@@krasteff Maybe the album has missed some more strings and arrangements.
Me neither! Such a great album
- they said they didn't have time to do it right completely! - geez! -
