I think it sounds great. I find it a sign of respect when your songs get re-worked. This really is a good tune, both versions. The vocal harmonies shine on both versions.
Mark Ronson has a new show on AppleTV+ (Watch that Sound) which premieres on July 30. Trailer was dropped this week. Dave's has an appearance in it, so maybe he will do reversions for some of their guests.
“Making A Fire” blazes in a whole new way with the
Mark Ronson Re-Version.
Produced by Ronson, the re-version features members of Antibalas, the Budos Band, the Dap-Kings, El Michels Affair, La Buya, Menahan Street Band , the Tedeschi Trucks Band and Tuatara — all providing a combustible new backdrop to Dave Grohl’s unmistakable vocal, as well as the irresistible refrain by a back-up vocal quartet featuring Violet Grohl.
Another listen to the Chasing Birds remix .... it could have worked, the horns are pretty cool, but the sped up vocals destroy it, and make it hard to listen to.
I didn't know it was delayed, went onto Banquet's website on the off-chance there were some left and it let me pre-order it. No idea whether it'll actually work but at the worst I'll just get a refund so worth a go.
Banquet are pretty up front on stuff so if they realise that's happened and they can't guarantee it they'll just cancel/do it on an order to order basis.
For anyone on the UK South Coast, Music's Not Dead in Bexhill had a box full as of 8.30 this morning. They're running a pop-up at the De La Warr pavillion today. I was one of the last in the queue so I reckon they've still got plenty.

Getting a Sympathy For The Devil vibe from it. Don't really understand why they did this. Not bad though
interesting 😊
Is it part of Ronson's next album or just something the Foos asked for?
I don't know. I can find out for you?
Ooh go on then ☺️
It's cool

I'm with you, I really like it!

I'm getting George Michael "Freedom" vibes and I can't unhear it.
I really like it, gives off Stones vibes.
I think it's pretty good!
vinyl release for Record Store Day Black Friday, Friday 26th Nov
Another one for the very long wishlist 😂
I like the song. It's a different vibe and fits nicely into a more chilled playlist.
I really don't like the chasing birds remix. The sped up vocals ruins it
Love FF, love Pres Hall, but this did not land for me at all.
I really like the Making A Fire remix, but agree on the Chasing Birds ... that remix is just terrible!

Yeah it's only the sped up vocals that ruins it.
👍️
Looks like it is delayed.

Ah nice, I might do it to see what they do.

Yeah, I like ordering from them because they're always reliable. Hopefully it'll work.
Rescheduled for release on RSD this year.

for what it's worth, this is released tomorrow
I'd set an alarm to get up early for it, completely forgot and accepted an extra shift at work 🤦♀️
If anyone manages an extra, I'd love you forever.
Hoping they have it locally tomorrow
@Geo I got a spare if you still need one?

Yessss please!! tried to get out of work as early as possible but still not early enough. The local shops only got 2 copies each.
