- This video has a soundtrack by the world-renowned and innovative club musician Richard Melville Hall - a.k.a. 'Moby'. The title of the track is 'Not Sensitive'.
The nickname 'Moby' was given to him by his parents because of an ancestral connection to the author of 'Moby Dick' - Herman Melville being his great-great granduncle.
Its ironic that we have been given permission to use one of Moby's music tracks over footage of St. Andrews Dock, Hull, England. In 1955, the Hollywood studio Warner Bros. chose the dock for re-fitting the Hispaniola - the ship which had formerly been used in the film 'Treasure Island'. When it left the dock, fully refurbished, it was as a whaling ship with many new fittings. Renamed the 'Pequod', it went on to carry Gregory Peck as Captain Ahab in the 1956 film Moby Dick. The re-fit was a fine testimony to all the trades associated with St. Andrews Dock in Hull.
Moby is one of the most controversial figures in techno music, alternately praised for bringing a face to the notoriously anonymous electronic genre, as well as being scorned by hordes of techno artists and fans for 'diluting and trivialising the form'. In either case, Moby was one of the most important dance music figures of the early '90s, helping bring the music to a mainstream audience both in England and in America.
Moby fused rapid disco beats with heavy distorted guitars, punk rhythms, and detailed productions that drew equally from pop, dance, and movie soundtracks like an updated version of the James Bond Theme used for the Bond film 'Tomorrow Never Dies'. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
I used to meet my beat friends brothers as they returned after 3 weeks or so What a hard life when you could actually come back and owe the owners money after experiencing the worst conditions imaginable God bless the lads that never returned
I think I saw my Dad on the Kingston Jacinth as she was sailing
We salute our war heroes and rightly so but now it's time to realise and commend the bravery and fortitude of these granite cast iron lads
My uncle was a rent boy on hull docks and he was only able to live with the trade of the sailors … his arse collapsed in 2009 and sadly he died …
sad endig for the andrews dock
It will soon be Jan 31st 2020 and Brexit at last, let's hope we will then all see the docks refurbished, new modern safer boats and the fishing industry thrive and boom again in Hull. Especially the fishermen, God bless them all, those departed and those still risking life and limb to feed us - many thanks!
There is a huge divide as to what to do with the Lord Line building, i think there are more in favour of it being demolished due to the state of it sadly. Something could be done with saint andrew's dock though rather than just leave it.Jan 2020🙏👍🙏👍
@@paulcrisp9861 Yes, Manor Properties who bought the Lord Line building went bust 3 years later, but separate plans for flats and a restaurant & bar have been approved recently. Both are unnecessary there as the port and offices are commercial assets. Once we're out of the EU, hopefully our fish stocks will recover and the industry will pick up once again. Hull is in the right place for biz with the EU, so if all goes well with some government investment (as compensation for selling us down the river) the whole supply and service industries should also develop. It's going to take a decade or so, there's no quick fix but I'm an optimist.
Nearly jan 31st 2021and it's looking more and more likely the old ST ANDREW'S DOCK will stand there alone falling apart without been demolished. I cannot see any future effort to have the building removed for safety reasons, a real shame 🙏❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧
Gone Jan 31st and still no quick fix to st Andrews Dock, how long is a piece of string? Sad but true 🙏❤️🇬🇧❤️🙏 Feb twenty three
Rather up setting to see the decline of the industry in Hull
