This is the third blog on a series of books written about South Shields by author John Orton. BOMBS IN THE BLACKOUT – with author John Orton 2018.įor more Tyneside stories why not subscribe to the ALIKIVI You Tube channel. Rockin’ All Over the Toon Again 14th Sept. (Jim Morrison, When the Music’s Over).ġ980 The Year Metal was Forged on Tyneside 11th Feb. Music really is the soundtrack to our lives. Yep, some people have their favourites ready for when they finally check out. The inspiration behind them, who wrote the lyrics and what it means to you. The songs that marked important moments in your life. You’ll have your own favourites like the first records you bought. What is the attraction of music ? Some songs have great stories. Blur might have something to say on that one, but they never had quarter of a million at Knebworth. In interviews guitarist Noel Gallagher talked of Oasis not being the most popular band in the ’90s, but the most important. More of a value that can be considered important. Is that when music started to lose it’s value ? I’m not talking about value that rings the till. In that team Geordies Gazza and Shearer stood tall. Knowing this was probably his last match in charge.
After the England football team were beaten in the Euro ’96 semi finals Walk Away by Cast was played on TV over pictures of the manager Terry Venables head down, hands in pockets walking down the touch line. But music is a leveller and it can be used to sum up our feelings at any given moment. Of course we all have our own tastes and top ten lists. What am I saying here ? Well, not only do we want to listen to music, but read about it and talk about it. Check out the horse drawn sleigh in ’Troika’. You’ll also find a bit of Prokofiev in Greg Lakes ‘I Believe in Father Christmas’.
Complete contrasts ? Prokofiev has his lighter moments but listen to Dance of the Pagan Master. Downing and the Russian classical composer, Prokofiev. Lately I’ve read biographies by Judas Priest guitarist K.K.

And Geldof salutes ‘ The lesson today is how to die’. The song raised millions and the Live Aid concert at Wembley Stadium followed. Songwriters Bob Geldoff and Midge Ure realised they didn’t have a nice little charity single on their hands but a major pop record when George Michael and Boy George laid down their vocal tracks on ‘ Do They Know it’s Christmas’. Pop and rock stars of the day including the Durans, Spandau, Quo, Sting, Bono and not forgetting Bananarama crammed into Sarm West studio in London. A charity single aimed at raising money for famine relief in Ethiopia.
And what about John Bonhams bombastic drums on When the Levee Breaks ? Sound has a real strength and songs have unforgetable moments. Kurt Cobains anger on the Nirvana anthem Smells Like Teen Spirit. The guitar intro to Alternative Ulster by Stiff Little Fingers. The adrenalin rush of the thunderclap from Icelandic football fans.
