Fast Ram - Ever so much better at 45, even better pitch corrected!!

Paul-McCartney-Ram-457966.jpgAudacity and I had to take on the challenge offered in the comments to this blog post. Paul McCarntney's Ram is a treat at 45 R.P.M. The same tempo with a 27 percent pitch reduction is fuckin' smokin'!! My father played this side exactly 1 billion times. FAST RAM, or “Ram” on 45 | Geoff Geis
Ram was one of those records that I bought and shelved for some potential later date. At the time I was living in a very full house with Pizza!, and we shared vinyl. While I apparently was only nominally interested in Ram, Alex found it on the shelf and decided to give it a spin. The turntable was on 45 when he did, and for some reason he didn’t notice. He accidentally played the record at the faster speed – and loved it! After falling in love with the fast version of Ram, Alex played it for us. We all agreed that it was incredible. I, personally, was hooked. I’ve listened to Ram on 45 a whole lot, but I’ve barely listened to it on 33. And while my initial love affair with it was a few years ago, I’ve gotten back into it pretty hard lately... Increasing the speed on Ram does, I must admit, “chipmunk” it. But what’s lost in low-end is more than compensated for by the gain in sheer passion, danceability, and drive.

DEVO - Gates of Steel

YouTube - Devo - "Gates of Steel" (Live - 1980) MVDvisual Devo's humanist anthem was the climax of tonight's show at the Power Center, Ann Arbor. I only just stopped grinning. I am grateful. Now twist away, now twist and shout The Earth it moves too slow But the Earth is all we know We pay to play the human way So twist away the gates of steel

Mark Mothersbaugh's post-industrial hymn: No Place Like Home

I'm finally going to see DEVO on July 6 here in Ann Arbor. I am especially happy to be going now that I bought and downloaded "Something for Everybody," their first album in 20 years. It's kind of like the rest of us caught up with these guys, as they learned how to talk to us in this moment. Among the beats and synths this is a religious album. Its about a belief in humanity, its sacred integrity, and how we are devolving into a race that has failed to respect this. This song is Mark Mothersbaugh's post-industrial hymn, more appropriate than ever since we've gone and filled up the Gulf of Mexico with hydrocarbons. If we should all just disappear / The skies and waters will clear in a world without us... We push against the rest of life / As if we could survive without the world around us.
