A ...voixautre, (from Michael again!) - Paul Haig...<br />A complete contrast to music of Josef K!<br />More electronic. The first solo 'Rhythm of Life' reissued in 2004 with 5 remixes, definitely has an 80's feel to it. But a fine album indeed. 'The Warp of Pure Fun' followed, then 'Circa' and then 'Coincidence vs. Fate', all albums having great tracks on them. He then went onto 'imaginary' soundtracks making 'Cinematique 1' '2' and '3'. In '07 he made 'Electronik Audience' which definitely has a Kraftwerk feel to it. Then came 'Go out tonight' which is back to 'rock' and then lastly, 'Relive' which I can't really remember as I only have this on an mp3 file!! So I would try the first 4 that I mentioned and then maybe go on from there. Can't believe he has been making solo albums for 28 years now!<br />Cheers, Michael.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7601536791094593042.post-48474249910712570972011-09-01T11:08:27.532-07:002011-09-01T11:08:27.532-07:00voixautre, (from Michael).

Originally released in '99 on 'Rhythm of Life' it was reissued in 2004 on 'One Little Indian' with 4 bonus tracks.<br />I had to buy it again and being an obsessive still have both copies. It has a sort of 'electronica' start about it but then goes 'rock' for want of another word. Then there is his 'piano' album 'Transmission Impossible' plus the mega-fine 'Auchtermatic' - both also on 'One Little Indian'. I feel I should plug his other 2 solos, 'Beyond the Sun' and 'Outernational'. And then I can't forget 'Eurocentric' an album he made with Steve Aungle. As you can see I am an obsessive - and I don't care! For me Billy was one of the finest male vocalists ever, maybe because of his great warmth and charm when I met the Associates at a gig in Cambridge (UK).<br />R.I.P. my friend.<br />P.S.

We all have different musical tastes; as they say, "One man's meat is another man's poison" but have you come across the Associates from the 80's. For me anyway they are the finest group Scotland ever produced. I actually cried when I heard that Billy Mac (kenzie) took his own life. A troubled soul indeed... Try and check out ANY of their albums, 12"s. I am sure the readers would be interested to hear them if they haven't already.
