    tortoise make me feel cooler than i really am

    brilliant piece by the way, it is probably inspired by Ennio Morricone (at least the first part), and it has a very "cinematic" feeling. One of the best pieces by Tortoise, in my opinion.

    I Love this song so much, Latin feelings but a little bit sad. Tortoise is one of the most favorite bands on earth. They are awesome.

    THE FIRST ONE IS A ES-335 and the second one is a FENDER VI that actually is a baritone guitar but by many other people is conceder in like a sixth bass
    a JAGUAR give you the same tone

    @dsmidl I think mostly in their range of instrumentation, and that they have a strong improv feel, but alot more laid back and jazzy in my opinion.

  • @GiovanniCarusonrgiga
    @GiovanniCarusonrgiga 16 лет назад

    ...Ennio Morricone...it's easy to find his evidence here (and in a lot of other T. works)...what surprised me was to find out that they know and love Franco Battiato. Totally unexpected..

  • @Satiaraha

    @Aspartamebraintumor: Yes-well spotted! A "Fender Six",essentially a baritone guitar.Pretty rare,and often just presumed to be a Jaguar by the casual observer.

    Yup, you're right. Turns out that the song I thought was called "I Set My Face To The Hillside" is really called "Ten Day Interval". A complex way of explaining a simple mistake. My bad!

    no, you are wrong, this is called "I set my face to the hillsides" from their 2nd (? not sure) album, TNT.

  • @hogalicious

    This song is not called "I Set My Face To The Hillside". I believe it is a version of "Along The Banks Of Rivers".

    Unfortunately, they don't use the harmonica, which adds so much to the album version. Without that harmonica chime, this live version seems awkward.

      Scenic - Acquatica (1996); anything by Anouar Brahem / Anouar Brahem Trio; anything by Cul De Sac, especially the album China Gate (1996) and its song “Nepenthe”; Macha’s self-titled album (1998), the instrumentals on Eric Clapton’s Rush soundtrack (1991); anything by Dirty Three; the song “Nomad” by the Aqua Velvets (1996). The Scenic and Macha albums in particular are two of the most mind-bogglingly brilliant ones I’ve ever heard.
