Re: Little Red Bird

I actually really love this EP. I'm glad we got studio cuts of these songs for sure. I listen to it from time to time and always enjoy it.

    Seems like I'm in good company!

    Little Red Bird is one of the go-to's for me on the guitar as well.

    Happy listening!

    Just gave this a listen today thanks to this thread.

    Love the music on Beachball. I've always liked #27. Little Red Bird is a nice McCartney-esqe tune (although, lt's no Blackbird). Write a Song is fun.

    Going to have to give Big Whiskey a play now too. Haven't listened to it beginning to end in ages.

    I’d go so far as to say that these are the best songs they’ve actually released since BTCS. IMO.

    I have to say I have always been surprised that everyone seems to love Beach Ball. IMO, its one of the more cheesy DMB songs ever.

    I could listen to collections of these B sides all day long.
    Wrap up Build You a House, Cigarette Lit, Trouble With You, and The Fly.

    Dude. The Fly in particular, great song. I wish it would get some action. That movie was, fucked. But the song is excellent.

    I can see your point though I particularly like the guitar personally. Nothing complicated. Fun to play. Interesting transitions. That's just me.

    The Fly has never received ample attention on Ants from its inception. It's an amazing song.

    Lyrically, it's super cheesy. Musically, I like it a lot.

    I'm not a huge fan for that reason

    To me it’s essentially the same song as You Never Know. Lyrics are about absolutely nothing but the music is great.

    Okay, the only songs I had previously heard from this was Corn Bread which we've seen 6x live (where it's at its best). But I've never heard the other tunes until tonight...

    Fuck that's some great stuff. Better than stuff that made the official cut for the album (which I also love). I've loved them live and been ecstatic with their studio releases (all but two) and the two hands full of live albums we have and never sought out the extras. Obviously ima dumbass.

    Yeah man, Little Red Bird is a fantastic EP. Beach Ball is a favorite of mine

    Edit: Cornbread wasn’t on the EP disc, I think it’s just a bonus track on the European disc. The Litle Red Bird EP track list is

    missing out on extras happens. I’ve been a huge genesis fan since I was 16 (going on 10 years ) and I have all of their studio and live albums. Somehow I never knew about their EP that came out around Trick of the Tail and Wind & Wuthering, Spot the Pigeon. Damn that’s some good stuff.
