A Certain Ratio - knife slits water live @serralves

[@megamanmuppet]

ACR one of the greatest bands live.

[@acrfactor]

Absolutely!

[@fryewerk]

I don’t know about their modern lineup at all. Is that Donald Johnson on bass and Denise singing?

[@acrfactor]

Hi John, thanks for asking. Unfortunately Denise passed away , this video is from a 2009 concert. The ACR core musicians continues with Donald Johnson, Jezz Kerr and Martin Moscrop. On the last tour they invite Ellen Beth Abdi on vocals

[@fryewerk]

Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. I always saw her name on a lot of the Factory related releases. I have to catch up with the newer ACR releases- really great stuff! Did Donald originally play bass on Knife Slits Water for the Sextet album version?

[@acrfactor]

@@fryewerk Yes it did, and also live, changing place on the drums with Martin Moscrop and lending the bass from Jez.
