I felt a little bit guilty yesterday when I teased you with the above picture but offered no music by the band Colourblind James Experience here.
Time to make amends.
Originally from Rochester, New York and laterly San Francisco the band led by Chuck Cuminale (aka Colorblind James) were active from 1978 to 2001
They shot to prominence in the UK in October 1998 when the preformed sessions for both John Peel and Andy Kershaw and for a while their song Considering a Move to Memphis was everywhere in Indie circles.
They then disappeared about as quickly as they had appeared
I have four songs by them in my Music folder including the one mentioned above and here they are:
Colorblind James Experience - Considering a Move to Memphis
Colorblind James Experience - A Different Bob
Colorblind James Experience -Fledgling Circus
Colourbling James Experience - Dance Critters
'A Different Bob' is the only one I remember
ReplyDeleteI'm Considering A Move To Memphis was their 'smash' although of course they were criminally unknown outside the Peel/Kershaw cognoscenti. ICAMTM actually only scraped in Peel's Festive 50 of 1987 at #47. Thought I had a couple of their albs but on checking it seems, if I ever did, I moved them on. Great to hear again tho'
