Alex Kapranos - Defibrillator (Spoken Word) Franz Ferdinand are welcomed into the Late Night Tales family with a diverse 20 track selection of musical influences, inspirations, diversions and discoveries. The quartet have released four studio albums as well as nabbing the Mercury Music Prize and a pair of Brits for Best British Group and Best British Rock Act. They’ve subsequently gone on to release You Could Have It So Much Better, Tonight: Franz Ferdinand and last year’s Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action. Announcing itself with Franz Ferdinand’s own exclusive cover version of the hugely collectible ‘Leaving My Old Life Behind’, originally performed by Jonathan Halper, (which appeared on the cult Kenneth Anger movie Puce Moment), their Late Night Tales mix flows between dark and light, introspection and affection, dancing and horizontal appreciation. Hear them join the dots between Can, Serge Gainsbourg and The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, Sandy's Nelson's percussion work-out 'Let There Be Drums', the irrepressible Ian Dury, funky sensations Zapp and the Disco Dub Band and sonic explorer Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry. Record collectors will note the inclusion of Carrie Cleveland's rare, home produced Northern Soul anthem 'Love Will Set You Free' - the LP attracts sales of £300+. Also included are a set of waywardly brilliant cover versions: Justus Köhncke’s dizzy interpretation of Neil Young’s ‘Old Man’ and R. Stevie Moore's ‘I’m Only Sleeping'. It wouldn’t be right for Franz Ferdinand to produce a mix such as this without a nod to the country that brought them together, so Glasgow’s Life Without Buildings, whose uplifting ‘New Town’ appears alongside ‘Reach For The Dead’ by Boards Of Canada. As they leave us wondering and wandering with American Spring’s Brian Wilson-produced ‘Sweet Mountain’, we take leave of our senses and suitcases on this tour bus of your mind. We’ve visited soul, funk, reggae, pop, Krautrock and others besides, but before we depart, Franz frontman Alex Kapranos provides a final farewell with the self-penned story 'Defibrillator'. http://franzferdinand.com Follow Late Night Tales: Web: http://latenighttales.co.uk Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/latenighttales1 Twitter: http://twitter.com/LateNightTales SoundCloud: http://soundcloud.com/latenighttales YouTube: http://youtube.com/latenighttalestv Instagram: http://instagram.com/latenighttalesofficial Spotify: http://goo.gl/Q98T7d Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/curator/late-night-tales/1233898093 Bandcamp: https://latenighttales.bandcamp.com/ Genre Franz Ferdinand Comment by AntzClassicSounds shades of Jim Morrison.,. me like 2022-08-21T11:30:32Z Comment by Luis Alberto González me encanta esta banda, una de mis canciones favoritas 2021-12-01T22:04:03Z Comment by PASSIONFLOWER This is so beautiful i just can't 2019-07-01T22:43:03Z Comment by PASSIONFLOWER how I love Franz Ferdinand 🖤 2019-03-19T20:38:09Z Comment by Christian Feuersenger <3 2018-09-11T08:04:47Z Comment by Lili Garcia 11 Amazing !!!! well Done Guys !!!! ;P♥ ! 2014-10-30T08:35:16Z Comment by Lili Garcia 11 maravilloso trabajo esta tremendo felicidades me encantó ♥!!!!! 2014-10-19T21:44:26Z Comment by Geoffroy Walkowiak VERY VERY VERY WONDERFULL!!!!! =) 2014-08-14T21:03:14Z Comment by kmr It takes me some place else 2014-08-14T15:39:34Z Comment by Grupo Gabiroba perfect *-* ♥ 2014-08-14T04:04:13Z Comment by New Chilean Gentry It's amazing!
