Okay, maybe I am a bit off-track on this one, but this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCuHHHNi-l8
kinda resembles the style on WI. (Paper Moon comes in mind). I think there is a fair chance that 'Felt', besides the Smiths, also influenced the pillows during their first years.[/quote]

I definitely hear the similarity-- at least, right at the beginning. It's possible that the pillows were into Felt, but I've never heard the band mention them as an influence. Felt was fairly popular in the UK back then, though.[/quote]

Well, it may be a coincidence that they are featured on 'Pillows and Prayers'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillows_%26_Prayers
In any case, the tone and the sound of the lead guitar resembles that of Manabe's in the early years of the pillows.

[quote="Lesser_Hamster"]Glad you like em, mate. If you happen upon any more great songs in their catalog, be sure to post em![/quote]
Well, I came across quite a few nice tracks. But this one is notable because of the guitar solo starting at approximately 3:50.

Currently my favorite track of Felt is 'Sunlight Bathed the Golden Glow'. (Both the album and single version)

Whoa! Great find! It's a good possibility that they influenced the pillows, then. Or, at least, that the pillows were familiar with their work.

EDIT: Has anyone here ever listened to Pillows and Prayers? It could be that some of the bands on that compilation were influences on the pillows. I mean, they did take their name from the album's title, after all.

I have and do definitely see some influences here.

Five Or Six — "Portrait" - Reminds me of Kool Spice era a bit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaeuO_nSWfY

Ben Watt — "Some Things Don't Matter" - Living Field-ish a bit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwpiFg8Oc6o

Marine Girls — "Lazy Ways" - reminds me of kanojo wa kyou a bit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUO7CUlBicQ

Felt — "My Face Is on Fire" - possibly a Moon Gold vibe. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nuyq_YMga1c

Everything But The Girl — "On My Mind" - Reminds me a bit of ICE PICK in some parts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2ZyKPTNIPY

The Nightingales — "Don't Blink" - The chorus reminds me of the intro to Going Down. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UsIlM0RqTU

Does anyone actually have any of Felt's music? All the links I'm finding on the net are dead.

Hmm. I haven't been able to track down a whole lot of it myself, but here's a link to their album Poem of the River:

Here's a link to their album Forever Breathes the Lonely Word:

Here's one for Ballad of the Band EP:

I think these links still work. They're not my uploads. I've only got these three of theirs. Ashinow might have more. Not sure.

Thanks, mang. I'll have to download those.

Have you got their singles, too? I've been meaning to get ahold of Sunlight Bathed the Golden Glow and others.
