Hanging in the balance...




Little interesting information about Jackdaw With Crowbar except that it is an English band formed in 1985 in Leamington Spa and originally composed of Timothy Ellis, Fergus Durrant, Dave Tibbats and Dan Morrison.


A band that will remain mainly in the musical history of this end of the 20th century for the big Single "Curse" which will be released in 1987.


For this reason alone, we had to dedicate this article to them.


To discover or rediscover...

Tracks :


1987... from the beginning of the adventure we can see that this group is not going to do pure and hard conformism. So we are warned...



1987...not to mention that the overspeed is unlikely to attract the crowds as they say. Especially the general public who are not very fond of this kind of tempo...



1987...a style and sound reserved de facto for an audience of initiates. And the word initiates is still weak when you see this kind of title...



1987...we can easily imagine that the group is not likely to end up at No.1 in the Charts given what he can offer at this stage. Sensitive souls, move on...



1987...the only title that will remain audible to a certain number. For the others it is clear that sensitive ears will not find what they are looking for...



1987...it doesn't matter whether there is success or not, the group continues its adventure in its own way and it doesn't matter whether the public follows or not...



1988...and this is not the kind of title that will improve the situation. We are verging on pure experimentalism on this one, it must be said...



1988...not much to do with what they've offered so far, to say the least. There should have been more like that...



1988...and we're back in total delirium mode. They're having fun, of course, but it's somewhat detrimental to the quality of the whole, or even considerably...



1991...a UFO group that decided not to do things like the others and decided to lead a very solitary adventure...



1991...afterwards everyone leads their career as they see fit. That's also the magic of the 80s with the appearance and especially the disappearance of groups that were at the very least atypical...



2007...we thought we would never see them again and yet it is indeed the case. A return that is at the very least unexpected and that will delight the - few - remaining fans to the highest degree...



2010... not much has changed between the 80s and the beginning of the 2010s concerning them. We won't remake them again as they say...



2010...they were not likely to attract the general public during their 80s period and they are not likely to attract it during this 2010s period, it must be noted...



2012...they continue to believe in it in any case, which is a pure and simple feat. We therefore imagine that it could be that we find them one day or another...
