====== Harry Gore and the Measles ====== Alternative Rock/Power Pop\\ Richmond, Virginia, USA From Mike Sumpter's BandCamp page: "Harry Gore is an old school Richmond,VA staple in local rock and roll! He and his brothers helped Richmond carve out a long lasting tradition of great music when they got together as 'The Good Guys". Harry went on to do his own original music and drafted various local musicians into his "Measles bootcamp" to put out some pretty cool stuff." Harry Gore's CDBaby Bio: ""I'm a hardcore rocker who loves Jesus. I'm holdin' on to 16 as long as I can....." Harry Gore is an American treasure. An established veteran of the alternative music scene, Harry's driving rock'n'roll features powerful hooks, excellent pop melodies and a strong message that both lifts and challenges the listener. Harry's live performances in the Richmond, VA area have made him a celebrity among music fans for years. Now Harry is stepping into the international arena of cyberspace which is the right thing for both Harry and the listeners from all over the world who will be treated to his unique brand of Power Pop. Harry combines the raw edges of punk/wave, the lilting melodies and harmonies of British pop, the ethnic roots of R&B, reggae, ska, and stirs them into a high energy, thought-provoking stew of Pure Americana that reveals roots without copying from them. Harry has been called our generation's Chuck Berry with a Christian conscience - a unique blend of American rock and pop sources delivered with spirit, humor and some of the tastiest rock guitar licks you'll ever hear... -Johnny Proctor .... for fans of: Cheap Trick, Rick Springfield, The Posies, Tommy Keene, Nazz" ===== Discography ===== | 1993 | Demo | | 1994 | Subtlety Goes Out the Window | [[Frozen Rope Records]] | | 1999 | [[https://christiantapeunderground.wordpress.com/2018/08/11/harry-gore-and-the-measles-rough-unmixed-demos/|Rough Unmixed Demos]] | | 2002 | Stockpile Volume 1 | | 2018 | Emanuel Labors | ------ ==== Demo ==== 1993 Independent Harry Gore - Lead and background vocals, all guitars, bass and drums on "Somethin' I Noticed"\\ Mark Sumpter - Bass\\ Kevin Linton - Drums, dialog with Harry on "Truth" - Remedy - Been Lookin' Around - You Call the Shots - The Truth Is Outta Sight - Somethin' I Noticed ------ ==== Subtlety Goes Out the Window ==== 1994 Frozen Rope Records (FRO 550) Harry Gore - All guitars, bass, percussion, lead and background vocals Mark Sumpter - Bass on tracks 4, 5, 7, and 9\\ Garner Knutson - Drums and percussion on tracks 4, 5, 7, and 9\\ Kevin Linton - Drums on tracks 4, 5, 7, and 9 Produced by Brad Wells and Harry Gore - There's a Dove (3:16) - Playin' With Matches (4:05) - Alfred (0:03) - The Truth is Outta Sight (4:52) - Been Lookin' Around (2:24) - Something I Noticed (2:14) - You Call the Shots (3:03) - Prayin' for Madonna (4:16) - Remedy (2:31) - Anticipating Heaven (2:43) - Big Problem (3:55) - Something I Noticed (mature alternative mix) (2:14) ------ ==== Rough Unmixed Demos ==== 1999 Independent Harry Gore – Vocals, guitar, lead guitar, bass on track 3\\ Mervin Nickel – Guitars, lead guitar\\ Henry Gerber – Vocals, bass, guitar on track 3\\ Mark Corvino – Drums, percussion - You'll Never be a Girl - Receive - Father God - (Ain’t Gonna Live a) Godless Life ------ ==== Stockpile, Volume 1 ==== 2002 Independent - Present Tense (02:18) - (Ain't Gonna Live a) Godless Life (04:35) - Stand for What's Alive (04:16) - Absolute Cute (02:22) - Wretched Man (03:37) - You'll Never Be a Girl (03:37) - I've Been Where You Are (03:36) - Christmas for Real (03:23) ------ ==== Emanuel Labors ==== 2018 Independent - There's a Dove (3:21) - Playin' with Matches (4:03) - Alfred (0:04) - The Truth Is Outta Sight (4:52) - Been Lookin' Around (2:37) - Something I Noticed (2:18) - You Call the Shots (3:08) - Prayin' for Madonna (4:19) - Remedy (2:33) - Anticipating Heaven (2:45) - Big Problem (4:00) - Something I Noticed (Mature Alternate Mix) (2:14) - Present Tense (2:18) - (Aint Gonna Live A) Godless Life (4:36) - Stand for What's Alive (4:17) - Absolute Cute (2:22) - Wretched Man (3:38) - I've Been Where You Are (3:36) - Christmas for Real (3:24) - She's Not Crying Anymore (2:24) - Settle for One Girl (3:32) - (Friend in A) Higher Place (2:14) - Tryin' to Tell Me Something (2:47) - No Adultery Blooz (5:07) ---- ===== Links ===== * [[https://store.cdbaby.com/Artist/HarryGore|Harry Gore on CD Baby]] * [[https://markwsumpter.bandcamp.com/album/subtlety-goes-out-the-window|Subtlety Goes Out the Window on BandCamp]]
