That snare drum needs a Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music

[@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]

@@kingsworthlionsblood There are a few bands I wish I had seen...The Who and Hollies are up there. I missed Ride this year, but I recently bought the Ride III CD reimagined...excellent.

[@kingsworthlionsblood]

@@velocita6907 This will be my 4th time seeing the Who live! Wish I was old enough to see em with Keith Moon! But Live at the Isle of Wight 1970 is always just a few clicks away! 🎯

[@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

[@leonardfwuckle]

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 😌

30 years later this album still gets a semi-regular blast in my car.

A semi

[@jesperlindersson7740]

One of the best intro’s ever made... tune!

[@69flop]

Their voices are so young. I am a 51 y/o musician and i've realized that music can make you litteraly forever young.

[@happygoth100]

Or at the very least, make you feel that way for as long as you're listening. :)

[@lukeoverthere1364]

So true. Works for some not for others. Robert Smith still sounds great and like he did in the eighties but poor old Macca has lost his vocal tap dancing prowess.

[@thedondeluxe6941]

I'm ever so happy that Ride started making music together again.

[@redoberon]

This sounds insanely good, props to the Audio Engineers.

[@ben.futureprimitive]

they not aged even a bit, their voices and sounds still solid for decades

Yes damned right...age is perfect...

[@matteframe]

yeah, they like unscrambled eggs... can't even tell they aren't in grammar school

[@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.

[@probablecausetocheckhard-drive]

genres a bit mixed up but explore music the media only promote black music these days

[@dirtedirte8771]

Wtf is shoe gaze

[@mapledreamer]

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.

[@caht00]

Thank you Ride for this. Wore this album to death through high school.

[@kingsworthlionsblood]

I did plenty of LSD trips with this album and A Storm In Heaven (plus related EP releases) by Verve! 💫✨🌟Oh sweet nostalgia, to be timeless in the early 90s...😇💯

[@williamgwillam3908]

Remember the first time I heard this in the earl 90's, had to learn the bassline as soon as possible.

[@squaddie67]

@@sactownchad I bought my Stingray (2 band eq, 6 bolt neck) in 1991 for the princely sum of £750 from the Soho Soundhouse in London. I still have the bass and the receipt today.

I think i made 10 songs inspired by this bassline!

[@ariesram74]

They play the hell out of this song. It's perfect. Love those drums.

[@jennybarling2538]

after 5 seconds I knew I would like their sound. Gonna go to a show

[@peatpage4131]

I got introduced to this song and album in 1992 and it single handedly changed my taste in music . Can't believe I just had my 50th birthday party recently and when everyone left , this is the album i put on nice and loud whilst having a few final drinks.

[@frankolivas8593]

Fuck, this is what live is!

[@brunomichaels9497]

The 12" version. Just fantastic! They sound as good as they did back in the 90s. What a track!

This isn't the 12 inch version,.it is the original version.

[@TheRealWinsletFan]

I'd give it 500 thumbs up if I could. What a stormer of a track.

Listen again this tune in pandemic era, help me a lot! Greetings from Portugal!

[@dimmuborgir4804]

I first heard this band on a CD that came with my SNES Donkey Kong game. Over 30 years ago. Hooked from first listen. Probably THE most underrated band in Brit music.

[@mheberling5939]

Ride, such a good band.

[@lucy327rss]

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!

[@user-nu3du9ty5s]

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... LOL. 😅

[@miketurner7202]

I remember the first time I heard this. I was listening to WCSB-FM in Cleveland and right away it felt like l was swept into a vortex. That was 1992. I have recently rediscovered them. Thank you God. I love their most recent album, "this is not a safe place". Love it.

[@nothinspermanent8039]

'Nowhere' album is the go to the album. For me my favourite since a teenage person.

I’ve been listening to this band since my buddy John introduced me to them, about 1999. Late, I know. But I used to start my day at the Pioneer Square Saloon with this song. All I can say, years after my introduction is .... Ethereal!!!

[@libiztardo5114]

Seen them in Detroit like 1991

[@thebadradio5340]

Mindblowing Ride!

[@lumbago784]

I think they played The Neptune theater on this tour. They were all I hoped for and more. Ride is criminally underrated.

[@richgl31]

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).

[@laurentgrangeon9048]

One of my favorit band ever.

[@roumiaou]

God, we had our cd's signed just before, saw them live & had countless beers with them after... They were barely our age. But sooooo cool.

[@3Arcane7Ghost21]

[@sderoski1]

This song makes me think of the open road and how free it feels to be alone on it with no destination other than seeking solitude and peace
