Title: Old School video of Richard Fortus Post by: BurningHills on July 13, 2006, 11:49:48 PM http://youtube.com/watch?v=4xPWxkig6aE&search=richard%20fortus
Never saw Fortus with short hair before - he looks totally different! Still rocks though - Love Spit Love had some good songs... Title: Re: Old School video of Richard Fortus Post by: KeVoRkIaN on July 13, 2006, 11:56:08 PM That Is very similar in some ways to the Cather in the Rye riff...lol - some poster on youtube mentioned that :beer:

I remember that song! Sounds like Psychadelic furs gone acoustic. Title: Re: Old School video of Richard Fortus Post by: Origen on July 14, 2006, 08:30:47 AM He doesn't look that much younger. It's just your not used to seeing him with short hair, and long hair (what he has now) makes you look older.

Title: Re: Old School video of Richard Fortus Post by: michaelvincent on July 14, 2006, 04:23:49 PM Quote Catcher was before Fortus joined Guns They obviously stole it from Guns then. :hihi: Title: Re: Old School video of Richard Fortus Post by: Origen on July 14, 2006, 04:32:29 PM Quote Catcher was before Fortus joined Guns They obviously stole it from Guns then.? :hihi: And this video was from 1994, so Axl oviously stole it from him.

Title: Re: Old School video of Richard Fortus Post by: mikegiuliana on July 15, 2006, 12:20:25 PM Catcher was before Fortus joined Guns isn't everything Title: Re: Old School video of Richard Fortus Post by: suicide on July 16, 2006, 03:43:43 AM I'm so amazed that I just ordered a CD from LSL. Yeah, me too!/lastroots And guess who plays the drums: Frank Ferrer. Quote Love Spit Love by Love Spit Love Love Spit Love: Richard Butler (vocals); Richard Fortus (guitar, cello, mandolin); Tim Butler (bass); Frank Ferrer (drums). Additional personnel: Eric Schermerhorn (acoustic guitar); Jon Brion (piano, chamberlin, optigon). Recorded at Eldorado Studios, Los Angeles, California from January to March 1994. Almost fifteen years after the Psychedelic Furs' hybrid of punk assault and melodic rhythms first hit the New Wave market, Richard Butler is back with a new band, Love Spit Love. Those accustomed to Butler's rasping attacks on modern life will find Love Spit Love a natural extension of his musical vision. Really, Love Spit Love is only one step removed from the Furs. With brother Tim Butler still on bass, the main difference between the two bands is the emphasis on guitar. While in the Furs, Butler was forced to write songs exclusively with the bass; now with guitarist Richard Fortus, Butler's scope has broadened. The difference in sound is significant. Moments on LOVE SPIT LOVE find the band sounding more like Camper Van Beethoven than their old, former selves. Opening with "Seventeen"--where Butler admits, "I can't believe it's been so long"--LOVE SPIT LOVE is the maturing of a songwriter and an honest admission of the passage of time. Title: Re: Old School video of Richard Fortus Post by: jimb0 on July 16, 2006, 03:57:48 PM I love his style and always was most excited over his possible work in the band. He should be lead IMO, fink could do a lick here and there but Rich will always be my fav.
