Just saw the Twilight Singers last week and it was an amazing show.
Interested in seeing if there are other fans here, sort of seems there might be?

If he's Greg, then I know the Whigs. I like 'em. A little self-indulgent at times, but you know.

I was, and still is, a huge Afghan Whigs fan. Dulli is king. Afghan Whigs were dark, raw and primitive - and excelled at playing depressing/aggressive soul music. Twilight Singers is more polished and a little too much at times, but still good. Dulli keeps writing the same songs again and again, but somehow he manages to do it with a nerve. He has lost some of his edge though.

Ah, Gentlemen is one of my favorite records ever.
I don't know much about solo Dulli. What should I check out?

1965 is my fave Afghan Whigs album. One of my favourite albums ever actually.

i understand
it took me a while
i wanted congregation and black love and 65 and what the fuck he did a covers album? i was a little indignant. but i was young and hadn't learned and so i missed out being self righteous and harder than thou
rant
ok i would check out 'Powder Burns' and then 'amber headlights' and then 'blackberry belle' and then 'she loves you' - in that order.
powder burns, their new one, is seriously great. start with that.
and i would also check out this twilight singers bootleg from a recent show that will make you want to check ALL of that out

heard an interview where he said he wanted to come back through the us in the fall after europe is done
oh i hope so, what a performer, what a live show.
wow

that one is the last one to have grown on me for the same reasons i didn't embrace the singers, but now, man, i have worn through two copies of 1965. i can't get it enough, it's sooooo sexy, it's perfectly paced and the bass and vocals just lilt off one another and i just adore that album

My favorite is Congregation--I think (the one with the naked lady and baby?). Then again, it was my first Whigs. It's got some rockers on't. I'm a sucker for Miles Iz Ded or secret track or whatever you wanna call it. I also like Let Me Lie To You and its mostly simple lyrics ("All alone . . . No one to play with . . Discover your lover between the legs of another . . .).
Actually, I suppose the Turn On The Water single would be my favorite release, since its B-sides are the aformentioned Miles and the Chalk Outline song.

I like Backbeat, the movie, and all the songs he sang on on the soundtrack.

Just to keep things balanced, somebody should start an 'I've had enough of Dulli!' thread. ;)

as long as that person kicks down their bootlegs to me I welcome such a thread!
oh so frustrating, they have wonderful DVD's that have been bootlegged and dozens and dozens of performances that people have traded and I missed the boat by about a decade and a half. As usual.
in the meantime, I have uploaded the newest whigs bootleg I found -
here we have 4.5.94
it's awesome and sexy and right up there with that 99 sweden one i love so much

dammit i can't find a setlist right now for this, have to come back to it
