Ride - Leave Them All Behind (Live on KEXP)

[@cwarner218]

To me, Ride, and particularly this song, is the quintessential dreampop/shoegaze example, followed by Lush. I saw Ride in '90 or '91 at the Latin Quarter in Detroit. I was new to this genre of music. The guitar , bass, keyboard, and drum work is just incredible, they all come together to create this flood of sound. Just awesome. This song, and Lush's Sweetness and Light stand out, to me as the pinnacle of this genre.

[@gloerp]

Couldn't agree with you more, those are one of my favorite songs

[@Fwuckle]

Saw the 1990 in Sydney @Paddington RSL and a week ago @ Enmore theatre. They still got it ☮️

It showed that shoegaze was more a vibe than just distortion and reverb 😌

[@velocita6907]

I am 65 years old and this is one the most underrated bands of all time. They are still relevant and producing new music.

[@kingsworthlionsblood]

Going Blank Again was the Shit back then (still is)! Was way into Ride and Verve (no The) before any other British bands in the early 90s!

[@kingsworthlionsblood]

Just found this version randomly. Glad I did! Was going to share album version of this song to a friend but I decided to click live in the search results...and then abracadabra! Magic to my ears! 🔥💯 They sound great and if given the chance, I'll definitely see em live! Didn't know they were still kicking out the jams!

[@kingsworthlionsblood]

I'm going to see The Who tonight, probably for the last time.😭 And you can't listen to the band you're going to see before the show, gotta go in fresh eared with clean slate...So this was an ideal warmup to put me in the mood! 💯

[@velocita6907]

[@cindigonzalez7350]

I just turned 22, but I remember when I started getting into shoe gaze/post punk and dream pop in early Highschool (I always like old and alt. music)...and it's weird to think that when I was 15 this band still managed to make me feel like there were other young ppl like me, in a small town where noone knew anything I liked, even though this song was released a few years before I was born. Your music has surpassed many generations and still impacts ppl today and I just wanted u to know how important you were to me💜

[@MarcGanancias]

Very cool. You're on the right track, so to speak.

You'll be 50 and you'll have the same feeling. That's good. Keep it up ! Cheers! 👍

[@fabriciorosso9807]

I'm 26, I discovered shoegaze/dreampop when I was 16, I still fucking love it. It's a genre that I can always count to make me feel (whatever, good feelings, bad ones, nostalgic, etc.). This band in particular is amazing.

Laurence Colbert, Arguably one of the greatest rock and roll drummers ever

[@telephonic]

He makes drumming look so easy.

[@conkerman01]

He has groove.

[@danostyli514]

@Rob Chapman _if you hold that high of an opinion of him then check out John Fishman.. a rather unknown outside of certain circles but one of THE greatest drummers of all time- the technicality within their catalog of music (Phish) is unparalleled w any band to ever walk on stage. I would suggest start with the 2 albums “Story of the Ghost” & “Rift” ,and just imagine them playing those songs in front of a live audience ..to the “T” note for note (unbelievable, and they’re still doing it today with the mid 90’s being their highest point of precision. (my bad for rambling just trying to spread good vibes..) I do however agree with your sentiment regarding his talents behind a drum kit.. more or less a rhythm drummer if u ask me but nonetheless damn good, ✌️

[@lucy327rss]

@@danostyli514 I will!

[@guitwin]

That's a BOLD statement, dude! A great, innovative, solid, unique drummer? Perhaps... But NOT anywhere in the same category or league as the likes of: Neil Peart, Stuart Copeland, Jeff Porcaro, Steve Gadd, Simon Philips, Bill Bruford, John Bonham, Keith Moon, and I could keep naming others, for the next hour...

Defining album of my youth. Still believe they are underrated. Treasured tape of a John Peel session of a tune called ‘Since Then’…. Just listened again on Spotify…. drums were louder and better on live version but great tune still ( they eve re-recorded it under another name on Carnival of Light).

To whoever mixed this, the guitars are supposed to be a swirling vortex of noise, not an Oasis b-side

[@robertoborgs]

you have a point, but i think that the band itself is more responsible for this

[@fabsca1970]

If you went to see them live in their come back gigs you would have noticed that the sound got more classic and less shoegaze.

[@jdbandy52]

I agree, but this captures the great guitar work without overdubs. I love the roar, but this is a faithful live rendition. What chaps my ass is their heading down the electronic path on new material.
