blind den wind - Giorgios Dalambiras & Ilias Mitsakis (1984)

Dieses Lied gehört mir nicht. Ich finde es jedoch wichtig, es auf diese Plattform hochzuladen, um es weiter zu unterstützen und die heutigen Generationen zu ermutigen, Musik der 80er zu hören. Ehrlich gesagt ist es einer meiner Favoriten und da ich es nirgendwo auf KZbin finden konnte, habe ich mich entschieden, es hochzuladen.
Breath-taking as usual. He has always been this way probably... We've had a lot of conversations about music and several other issues. Some things are meant to be exposed, other better left unsaid... He is a low-profile person for sure, a silent engine. Silent but not calm I I was impressed, since the first time l'd met him by how he could compose and sing, using his Yamaha synth, with the ease common people can use their mouth to speak. He's their only representative and probably the only one who can describe what and who was "Statues in Motion". Due to the absence of an insert and a general lack of information regarding the first edition, many people are unaware of who is responsible for this record. Vasilis Paleokostas (Billy Knight), George Dalambiras (Alvin Dean), Ilias Mitsakis (Elli Kane). George, of greek-australian origin, is no longer among us, according to Vasilis. He dedicates this re-issue to him, "good chap" he says, although "down on his luck"..
As for llias, Vasilis hasn't met him since then and we couldn't track him down no matter what. Vasilis comes (on his mother's side) from a family of classical music background. Since his student years though, he enters the world of "rock music" and creates, or becomes a part of, student bands. Shortly after 1974 he creates the band "GET" and afterwards he joins the band "MAKERS". In 1976 we find Vasills playing by the side of "KENTAVROS", the resident band of the club "Tiffany's" at Plaka area, in downtown Athens. They are mostly playing cover versions and at the same time they are composing and playing their own songs. In 1979 he becomes a member of "PARTHENOGENESIS", the first punk band in Greece, using the nickname "Billy Lod".

They had a reissue record of Geheimnis. This song was not officially released since it was not finished and lasted only a few days publicly. It belonged to the Geheimnis album by S.I.M. It was part of this album along with Future Myth, In Silence, Statues, among others. “Statues In Motion” is Geheimnis' Rec. 9th release and quite happy to reissue this synth/dark pop masterpiece + a bonus track never been issued before !! Vasilis Paleokostas (Billy Knight), George Dalambiras (Alvin Dean), Ilias Mitsakis (Elli Kane). Billy Knight creates “STATUES IN MOTION” during the summer of 1981. He is already acquainted with George (Alvin Dean), because George was the lead singer of another historical and very short lived band, called “Homicide” (along with Costas Pothoulakis - ex “Parthenogenesis” member, later member of “The Reporters” and “Villa 21”). “Homicide” was the support act of some of the Parthenogenesis’ live gigs, shortly before the band’s final concert in Christmas 1980. With Elli Kane and Tracey West (backing vocals) he met at a club called “Snowball” around that time. Tracey was a close friend to Billy’s girlfriend and a regular at this club. Elli wrote most of their lyrics and became the manager of the band. Their first live gig takes place at Lycabettus theatre, at a music festival (the only photo of the band, taken during that live performance, is at the back cover of the record’s sleeve) where they were awarded first place. They play alongside bands such as “Mousikes Taksiarhies”, “Apocalypsis”, “Vavoura Band” and others, performing 3 songs, “Man In Black”, “Statues” and “Pinky Complex”. “Pinky Complex” was and still is one of Billy’s favorite songs and that’s why he wanted to re-record it and include it in this 30th edition. It was properly recorded back in 1982, with Alvin Dean on vocals, but it was “Virginia Clemm” that had been included in the original edition instead of it. The original version is probably lost. By the summer of 1982 the album was ready. Vasos Tsimidopoulos (producer) had listened to them, while they were rehearsing at “ERA” studios, he liked them and suggested them to follow him to Minos-EMI. After several financial arguments, the record was finally released in Christmas 1983 and found its way to the record stores in the early days of 1984, although recording had already finished by mid-1982… Billy was so disappointed by this situation that, long before the album’s release date, he had the band break up (in particular in November 1983) and left Greece to follow his destiny abroad.

Le mystère est résolu ?

[@cfournier76]

@@SheneySan Pour mois, il semble ne pas y avoir trop de doutes. Des personnes ont posé la question a Vasilis, alias Billy qui répond à la question "Est-ce que vous avez chanté sur cette chanson", il répond "Pas sur cette chanson, mais sur l'album" et ensuite il ajoute "on ne va pas épiloguer, cette chanson en particulier, oui, Alvin l'a faite.

Thanks for your comment. This the band splitting moving to germany answers how it came to be that a German boy records it on German radio.

He listens and hes like hey thats our song from many years ago! Thats AL

[@aremelboss2614]

There is no shred of evidence that Alvin Dean/Statues in Motion made this song. Also Alvin Dean was not German, so he wouldn’t have called the song Blind Den Wind anyway.

@S A Trust me, I never once thought it was from an alternate dimension. I would love nothing more than for the mystery to be solved, but it's impossible to know what's real and what is a troll these days. If the poster would offer proof of this, I would totally believe it.

[@Fuchsfein]

No, this song is called "Wie der Wind" and it was written by Austrian musicians Ronnie Urini and Christian Brandl in December 1983. Brandl passed away in 1987, Urini is still alive and has by now sucessfully claimed copyright for the song with the AKM in Austria. He also shared alternate German lyrics for the song. "Blind den Wind" is nonsensical, no German speaking person would come up with such a song title.

[@ELEcomments]

@@Fuchsfein where did you find this information?

[@sparkyfolf9487]

I believe it's a song from Statues In Motion, the voice of the lead singer and in the track is identical and both is Alternative Rock from 1983. Possibly it was an bonus song on they're 1 and only album published in that year or it was just a radio studio exclusive, wich they might have tried to put themselves into the mainstream as it wasn't featured in the album record. It might have been a demo track though.

MisterZatanZ dijo que probablemente hay dos versiones de la canción. La primera con SIM que obviamente no se pudo meter al álbum y esa canción no fue con el DX7 que la segunda versión Alvin Dean la cantó con su nuevo grupo y esa sí fue con el DX7 y fue la que salió en la radio. Esta canción sus sintetizadores suenan como los que mencionó Billy Knight que son diferentes al DX7. Aunque lo curioso es que por lo que veo en este vídeo se deja en claro que esta canción sería la segunda versión aunque en realidad suena más como la primera porque la segunda versión es la que ya todos hemos escuchado.
