Parasite (1982)

"That thing on your stomach..."

"A new strain of parasite. I deserve it, in a way. I created it."

"For the Merchants? Why?"

Never realy been in to Goldie but this live performance is great, the musicians are on fire, especially the drummers. Goldie himself is just being the (usual) showman.

Excerpt from James Davidson’s book “Greek Myths: Origins of the Gods” ..Orpheus changed to a minor key and the pace picked up once more. The Argonauts were full of fear for what the music portended. Orpheus conjured up the sound of buzzing on his lyre, as his fingers ran up and down the instrument, and all the Argonauts ducked, thinking they were under attack from a swarm of bees. Orpheus was describing how Eurydice went one day to visit his half-brother, Aristaeus, king of beekeepers, and how Aristaeus was seized with lust for his sister-in-law, disdainful of the vows of marriage; how he fed her a spoonful of honey and kissed her sweet lips; how Eurydice fled, with Aristaeus chasing after her, seized with belated regretfulness, pleading with her to forgive his indiscretion and not to tell Orpheus what had happened. But Eurydice hid in the hollows of the roots of a tree by the banks of a slow-moving stream, home, as it happened, to a venomous snake who bit Eurydice's white ankle and killed her, sending her spirit down to Hades' halls.

Orpheus stopped, unable to continue, but the Argonauts begged him to go on. So he started up again in a more sombre mood, telling how he found his beloved Eurydice dead by the roots of a tree and how his brother asked in vain for his forgiveness. He played the song he had sung at the time, echoing his former lament, and the Argonauts wept like children as they heard Orpheus rehearse his sorrow. Tears ran down their battle-scarred cheeks, and the ship was filled with the sound of sobbing. The Argo itself was filled with grief. Its timbers creaked in sympathy and tears stained its oak prow.
