That's because they are targeting middle aged people for their bigger sales. As you well know...about the marketing.

the broken west pretty much sounds like any other solid power-pop record, but it's probably my favorite album of the year so far ... it's a lot like how i felt about brendan benson's last disc

I'm listening to the Tom Waits collection as well. It's awesome so far.

Also listening to the new CYHSY, Lily Allen, and Islands (finally). Enjoying all of them.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: HoyaSaxa03 on February 12, 2007, 04:14:00 pm

you like the CYHSY disc?

i was really disappointed ... seems like a few good songs ("underwater" is the big standout for me) around a whole lot of filler ... and what kind of message were they trying to send with the horribly compressed and distorted opening track? as close to unlistenable as anything i've heard lately

Yesssssssss to whoever mentioned "Blondie" by Ada. There were 10, maybe 12 people here at Nation when she came through with the Areal vs. DJ tour. That album is just SOOOOOOO good, and the B-Sides are even better.

Have you heard the B-Side stuff (Lovelace, Call That Tune, etc.)? It's TOO good!

--

Meanwhile, I've been listening to Lucinda Williams' new one, the Siouxsie and the Banshees "Downside Up" collection, and literally everything from Escort.

I was listening to this in the car on the way home from work tonight. It's odd how I always seem to think it's good but only so-so until I put the thing on. Then I'm always taken with how much I like it. It holds up well all the way through and contains a lot of fairly decent song writing. Each of the songs are consistant yet versatile as you go through the disc. Everything is performed rather well too. It won't be my album of the year but it will be one that will always be a nice treat to return to. I kind of think you will like them.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: K8teebug on February 13, 2007, 09:01:00 am

I think the new CYHSY is alright. I kinda like the first distorted track. I mainly bought it to hear what they did with "Satan Said Dance". Saw them perform it live at the 8x10 and thought it was their best song.

I figure either the album will grow on me, or I will start to hate it.

I'm listening to the new shins record. It's ok.
For whatever reason, I feel like it should be Winter semester my freshman year of college (1992) when I'm listening to it.
(also the time matthew sweet's girlfriend and teenage fanclub's bandwagonesque came out. And i was dating a guy who was really into the housemartins so maybe that's it.)

jesus lizard - liar
captain beefheart - safe as milk
john coltrane - ascension

the ponys are the best. i still like "celebration castle" better than the new one, but the new one's pretty awesome. remember when they opened for bloc party and were about 483x better than them? i mean, not that that's any real achievement, but still. they were even better on the backstage a few summers ago.

The CD is great, though their live show is a little weak. If you like Malajube, I strongly recommend Les Breastfeeders. A little punkier than Malajube, and more energetic. Another great product from Montreal.

Wow does the remaster of this sound STUNNING!!!!! Everything sounds a bit warmer, you can hear the multi-tracking on the vocals clearer, the different layers are discernible all very tasty indeed. Based on the way the sound swirls and bounces between the left and right speakers on the stereo CD version, I can' wait to hear the DVD audio mixes pumping through a proper 5.1 system.

It also makes want to run out and get the Heaven 17 remasters that group recently released as well.

It's good, but on the first listen (in the less than optimal environment of my office), I'm not blown away. The solo gig is a nice counterpoint to the rockingness of the Fillmore CD.

That Man Needs A Maid / Heart of Gold Suite doesn't work so well. I like both songs in their traditional arrangement.

Stax 50th Anniversary Celebration Collection complete with nifty hologram on the cover. The way music should be done, no samplers, pro-tools, etc, just a bunch of musicians laying down the grooves with the singers coming doing several takes to capture the best performance.

Nope got it in the store along with a cool t-shirt... Although I own the first stax singles box set, I haven't had the time to edit it down to essential tracks which is why I jumped on this.

Tell me about this, Grotty. How is it? [/b]

After spending a night listening - I'm thinking it is excellent. Didn't know much about Jeff Lang prior but he's a good complement to Chris. There are stunning songs on here - things that rank with CW's best. It sounds most like his more recent: Hotel Lost Horizon/Soft Dangerous Shores/War Crime Blues.

Here's some more detail & reviews I could find:

Sydney Morning Herald

Over the years I have probably heard 40 or 50 versions of Stagger Lee, but I have never heard it sung with such a depth and intensity as the blistering version on this remarkable record. If you buy only one blues-roots album this year, this is the one.

The gigantic, emotion-drenched talent of the late Chris Whitley mixed with some exceptional playing from Jeff Lang, our finest blues guitarist, and stripped-to-the-bone accompaniment from drummer Ashley Davies and upright bass player Grant Cummerford, make this a roots masterpiece.

It's not the way these musicians take Stagger Lee and find new depths of meaning in it. It is the rawness and savagely beautiful guitar attack of Twelve Thousand Miles, and their loping and seductive version of Dylan's When I Paint My Masterpiece.

There is not a bad track on this album, which sounds as though it will jump out of the speakers and grab you by the throat.

Amazon.com

The late Chris Whitley plainly found a kindred spirit in Australia's Jeff Lang, with whom he collaborated on his last recording before his 2005 death. Both are breathy vocalists and bluesy adventurers who favor a buzzsaw immediacy to more layered, polished recordings. With Whitley playing mainly National steel guitar and Lang alternating among lap steel and other guitars, backed by a crack rhythm section, the music has a haunted, sin-drenched quality that ranks with Whitley's most intense. Highlights range from the tribal-throb rendition of Prince's "Forever in My Life" and the Asian delicacy of Lang's acoustic "Ravenswood" to the Dylanesque phrasing of Whitley's "Velocity Girl" and a pair of Dylan covers ("When I Paint My Masterpiece" and "Changing of the Guard"). The opening "Stagger Lee" and the closing "Hellhound on My Trail" (an unlisted bonus cut) show where this music is rooted, while Whitley's "Rocket House" and the supercharged "Underground" show where it can soar.

So kosmo whats up with the CD with the minimal artwork that looks like some secret code to confuse even hipsters? And is there an interesting back story to it?

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: kosmo vinyl on April 06, 2007, 01:24:00 pm

I'm glad you asked kosmo, it's the cover art for Concept 1 96:VR: Variations by Thomas Brinkman and there is an interesting back story to it...

Richie Hawtin aka Plastikman put out a series of 12 12"records that would best described as experimental minimal yet still trippy techno.

Anyways Thomas Brinkman from Germany heard these records and thought to himself what would they sound like if I built a special turntable with two cartridges spaced evenly apart. Then send the sound from one cartidge to the left channel and the other to the right channel. Which produced the interesting effect of hearing the original track doubled. The sound literally bounces from one side to the other as the pattern repeats. It's an amazing collection of tracks and presents a unique way of listening to the artists initial vision.

I'm glad you asked.

Primarily Dr. Luke, responsible for some of my favorites including Kelly Clarkson, P!nk, Lady Sovereign and Daughtry, but also her husband Deryck Whibley of Sum 41, Rob Cavallo who produced Green Day, The Goo Goo Dolls, My Chemical Romance, Jewel, Butch Walker and Avril herself.

And Travis Barker plays some drums on the album too.

s/t

Simply gorgeous!

In the vein of The Daysleepers. In fact, same producer and good friends who sometimes work together. (Actually, this is the producer's band.)
____________

Next up...

God Is An Astronaut - "Far From Refuge"

New release, out April 20th. Very good and a natural progression from their earlier works. The opener, "Radau" is by far my favorite and quite powerful.

For fans of Explosions In The Sky, Mogwai, MONO and the like.

23 is the stand-out track for me at this point. I haven't formed much of an opinion as to the rest of it. I think I may stream it from their myspace page for awhile. In the meantime I can't stop listening to Pier Paolo from Fake Can Be Just as Good.

South Arlington band that melds acoustic blues, swampy heavy blues, country, and tasteful use of Therimin. Superb material and should have wider recognition by now...

I panicked, i'm thinking, oh my god, man, while i'm here, what's to stop them?
I mean what's really to stop them, oh, i assumed that maybe some day
my mother would realize that i should have gotten out! yeah,

It's a good album but based on one listen it's sounds very disjointed... first impression is it's like it could be a collection of tracks left off previous albums. I generally like albums where tracks vary, but this ones all over the map and not sequenced very well...

The Mice Parade is a promo copy. The Pela may be as well, not sure. It's missing the front cover artwork and pullout whatever you call it.

It is most definitely the Son of Pet Sounds, which originally put me off. But as I continued to listen to it I quickly got sucked in and became somewhat addicted. Perhaps there's some aurally hypnotic bit of technology included on the disc. Yes, that must be it.

One of the problems I have with Elvis is how he treats those first albums as his essential canon and feels compelled to do five-six songs from them every show. I guess he feels that's what the casual (and longtime hardcore) fan wants to hear.

I guess. I never liked "Alison" much anyway. Songs like "Worthless Thing," "King of Thieves," "Town Cryer," "Next Time Round," and "Suit of Lights" (amongst dozens of others) are just as good as songs from those three. And if he wants to mine those three, why doesn't he ever do "Night Rally" or "Good Squad?"

He's almost like Oasis. But there's a reason that Oasis mainly do songs from their first two albums...

The PLUGZ debut on CD. I have waited a long time for this one. And it's a brand spankin' new copy, as you can see from the pic. If you don't know who the Plugz are, check your headgear.

I'm going to wait a bit before deciding how it stacks up in comparison. It tooks months before I loved Alligator & my favorite song on there - Geese of Beverly Road - I did not initially like.

Boxer is a beautiful & haunting record tho. Obviously influenced by their side project - the Clogs. The one immediate observation is the restraint. No explosions of emotion that have been the highlight of previous records.

***************************

For whatever it's worth - Boxer now has an 89 on Meta:

Free Show Wed 7/13 @ Pt State Park
in the Nation's #1 Most Livable City

****************

Review by Jo-Ann Greene (AMG)
Americana with attitude is the best way to describe the Avett Brothers' music, a sublime blend of folk, country, hillbilly, and blues, swirled through with pop, rock, and a touch of wry punk. The Avett Brothers pick their way through America's folk styles, and deliver them in ways you'd never expect, all wrapped around lyrics, sometimes wry, sometimes dead-serious, but all delivered with the band's signature intensity. A fabulous album from a band that just keeps getting better.

I can't get enough of either Two Lone Swordsmen's Wrong Meeting or Wrong Meeting II. For you trainspotters out there it's a project from Andrew Weatherall the producer behind Primal Scream's dead brilliant "Screamadelica" record along with several dance tracks and remixes over the years.

It's scuzzy blues with dashes of keyboards. It harkens back to early New Order with a more of a swagger to it. Both available on eMusic.

I always try to turn up Sugar Cube, Damage and Deeper Into Movies louder but it never goes as loud as I need it to. Their cover of Little Honda is so restrained but driven. You can see the guitarist just standing there rocking the hell out of that song. This album is so damn good that I have a hard time listening to other YLT albums.

MY, HOW THEY"VE GROWN If you only know them as the grunge-era band of 15-year-olds, Silverchair will surprise you with their maturation on Young Modern.

Even during their days as teenagers in a second-string '90s grunge act, the Aussies of Silverchair had a knack for turning out memorable hooks. Still, the transformation they've pulled off for their first LP since '02 is fairly astonishing. Young Modern is a polished glam-rock suite, boasting more ecstatic melodies and colorful riffs than their four previous efforts combined. Frontman Daniel Johns' voice, once unremarkable, now soars from campy snarl to sensitive falsetto in mere moments. Here's hoping Silverchair's second act is just getting started. A-

catching up on my 07 releases:

[panda bear - "person pitch"]

holy shit is this great ... i have all the animal collective albums and "young prayer", and i like a lot of the stuff, but i feel like they've never really hit anything out of the park ("who could win a rabbit" was a glimpse of it) ... this album is pretty much a perfect distillation of everything animal collective and him have been trying to do the last few years ... most tracks hit the pop sweet spot on so many levels, but "bros" is the standout ... the first part of "good girl / carrots" reminded me a little of the brian eno's / david byrne's "my life in the bush of ghosts" with the polyrhythmic beats and tape splicing
<img src="http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/61IPAfsjlIL._SS500_.jpg" alt=" - " />

awesome, but not as transcendent as some are calling it ... a solid 4/5 stars
<img src="http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/41wqx1%2BMxQL._SS500_.jpg" alt=" - " />

talk about hitting it out of the park ... wow ... i'm completely biased on this one, but i think butch vig's production really works on this and that they managed to keep a lot of what made them special early on ... and it's always great to see a kid you grew up with doing this well
<img src="http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/612x%2BUIlKLL._SS500_.jpg" alt=" - " />

very solid, nothing groundbreaking, but a sturdy album from a band who looks like they're in it for the long haul

The Pigeon Detectives "Wait for Me"

Recommended if you like the Fratellis. Same deal here of recycled Libertines tempos, Franz choppy guitars, and Arctic Monkey themes.

this album is poop.

not so much because the songs suck really bad, because they are all decent, though, they all sound the fucking same.

but this band made some of the best sounds of the 90s and this album has about as much creativity as a Bush album.

... Listening to?

I am rarely without [my iPod]. When I traveled to and from Greece and India recently, I was looking for a way to recharge it â?? it's such a long way there and back. I have on my iPod a collection of music which is heavily what most people call country and western music. It's heavy on Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash. But I also have some [John Philip] Sousa music, which will get a fair number of chuckles, I suppose. Sousa was the master of the march. I particularly like "Semper Fidelis" and the second movement â?? someone who is schooled in music might say, 'It's not quite a movement,' but I call it a movement â?? I have isolated in and of itself ... so I can just go to it for short bursts of inspiration. I also have, on the iPod, Joe Ely and Jimmie Dale Gilmore. Until I was probably 25 years old, if Hank Williams didn't sing it, I didn't know it. Also, The Blind Boys of Alabama. Oh, I love them. I did a story on them on "60 Minutes II" when I was still at CBS and met them. I do have some R.E.M. I've not listened to it lately. Particularly their earlier stuff and "Monster." Isn't it incredible that they're still going strong? They have the added advantage of being very smart. I should have mentioned that one of the early things I put on the iPod was R.E.M.

I was so excited when I saw this had been released and was getting superlative reviews. It's good, to be sure. Mingus is always interesting, and his records/shows with Eric Dolphy are always of good quality.

But I think that Mingus is one of the only jazz greats whose recorded works I prefer over the live stuff. His records like Ah Um, Tijuana Moods, and Black Saint & Sinner Lady are so lively and rollicking, whereas the live discs I have tend to be more somber and mellow. Nothing wrong with that, but it tends to fade into the background, which never happens when playing Better Git It In Your Soul or Wed Night Prayer Meeting.

This definitely has its rocking points, and Mingus is yakking it up during the songs the whole time, but the 30-minute "Meditations" just drags, in my opinion, along with a few others that just seem... aimless.

I like all four Ritter discs, and think he has improved with each album. I don't know if I can say that about any other artist.

I think it's amazing, and it's definitely unlike anything she's done before.

"Grow, Grow, Grow" is by far the best song on there...I think it'll be recieved as one of the best albums of the year.

"Grow, Grow, Grow" is by far the best song on there...I think it'll be recieved as one of the best albums of the year.

Okay, so i officially LOVE this album.

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE it.

It's very specific... and I know there are times when I won't want to listen to it... even like on an incredibly sunny summer Saturday... it just won't feel right...but... it's so evocative and invokes such clear strong images and sensations for me.

and it's CREEPY AS FUCK.

'Grow Grow Grow' sounds like it's straight out of the last scene of "Flowers in the Attic" or a movie about this really crazy town in the bible belt and all the kids are inbred and speaking in tongues and end up going on a killing spree using pitch forks and nooses made from horse hair all in the name of the holy spirit.

What else?

I think that 'The Devil', 'Grow Grow Grow', 'Before Departure' and 'The Mountain' are my favorites right now...

...and I'd love to hear her play this album straight through at the show.

I really liked Howl Howl, which is why I didnt like this one. I didnt find it like the cure at all, and not poppy at all, which was the reason the first one was good. But to be honest I started skipping through songs because I became very bored with it, I will give it a full listen today.

love this album. reminded me of the cure on first listen. after seeing them live, i love it even more. i think i might like it better than the HHGG, but then i hear HHGG and love it all over again.

i really wish i could see them more than once on their 2nd time around, but morrissey got in the way of that.

My wife is always bitching about the boring-ass people that she works with, and how she has nothing in common with them. When she returns to work, she'd like to work in a younger, hipper office...does such a thing even exist in the DC area?

VW is all the rage on KEXP. i'll have to listen at some point.

So far, so good. It's a little hard to give it a full assessment at office-volume levels, but a couple of the songs sound like they should be barn burners in the live setting.

Great 60s-era-garage power pop record. Singer sounds a bit like a young Mick Jagger, and the guitars, while jangly, rock. Songs are catchy and really upbeat.

<img src="http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/41UoHBkILPL._SS500_.jpg" alt=" - " />

Bought this one based just on the cover. And it sounds just like it looks. Pretty pop, in the vein of Essex Green, Francoise Hardy or somber Cardigans.

I'm listening to this band called the Arcade Fire. I found one of their albums on a sharing site on the web. They sound like a less talented, less interesting version of Devotchka.

the legal version is much better.

Is there a better version than that? Because I just gave Neon Bible another chance Tuesday and it still isn't doing a thing for me. Blah.

Could the band itself even have predicted what would transpire of the Arcade Fireâ??s Win Butlerâ??s suggestion to the band that they take on â??Last Beat of My Heart?â?? The end result is the center-piece of the EP, a grand and soaring take on the song; a testament to the bandâ??s true unique ability to transform nearly anything via a sound only DeVotchKa can create, and perhaps a look at the epic nature of where the bandâ??s own recordings may move in the future.

sure, i'd be happy to (although it wouldn't be any more legal than what you already have :) ) - but i doubt it would convert you over to AF. a high-res version of the recording probably won't change your opinion of their talent, or ability to generate interest.

also, if you really want to give this band a chance, check out their first album ("funeral"). a vast majority of people feel that it is better than "neon bibble".

Funeral is great. Neon Bible is pretty blah.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer on October 04, 2007, 02:21:00 pm

I've heard most of Funeral, and it really doesn't do much for me. Mind you, it's probably better than 80% of the crap out there, but then again probably less than 5% of the music out there really does anything for me.

Found this great blog today with some high quality vinyl rips of vintage Halloween records. http://scarstuff.blogspot.com/ (http://scarstuff.blogspot.com/)

Anyways, this record from 1959 on which Rod McKeun is involved with not only has a song, "The Mummy" covered by the Fall, it has "The Beat Generation" which serves as inspiration to "The Blank Generation" one of greatest punk songs ever written.

Here is a video of the actual single playing...

Picked this up on your recommendation and it's great. Damned if I can come up with a description of it or comparisons to other bands. Some of the tracks sound like a mellow Muse, some sound like early Radiohead, there's some shoegaze elements, Kent and Doves came to mind. Anyway, good call.

Art Blakey "Buhaina's Delight": Yes! THIS is how it SHOULD sound!

Cool. Glad you like it. I'm missing the Radiohead and Muse comparisons but not disagreeing either. Definitely hear the Kent and maybe some Doves. A more playful Mew too. One song always makes me think of Ultravox. That's Tomas' influence. Definitely some Shoegaze but only in a light weight manner. Much more melodic and lyrical than most Gaze.

Btw Relaxer, pull the little booklet out and go to the last page and read the portion in the lower right corner. At least, the top line. Will explain once you read it. There is much more to it than meets the eye.

Great random album I got turned on to. This is how allmusic puts it:

"If Exene Cervenka hooked up with the Jesus and Mary Chain, they all got wrecked on cheap malt liquor, and they jammed together for a few hours, you might get something that closely resembles Space and Time."

That's a fair description. Super garage-y and scuzzy, with random off-beat horns, loud guitars, pounding piano, 'Waiting for the Man' drums, and a singer that wails kind of like the Detroit Cobras.

Japanther -- Skuffed Up My Huffy

Sounds like a modern version of the first couple Ramones albums, with weird samples, beats and blasts of distortion and noise alongside the simple riffs and Joey Ramone vocals.

Admittedly, I haven't seen them in a few years, and just realized that the one girl left. But pianos? And singing?? And song-structure??? This disc is a pretty awesome step-forward.

Still, these gals and guy were brutally entertaining as a trio that seemingly improvised everything.

Even as a duo, all the cdr's they put out prior to Boss and the shows they played were all improvised. I'm very curious as to what to their shows consist of now.

Wolf Eyes - Black Wings Over The Sand. Nowhere near as abbrasive as and much more restrained than their other stuff but still as deliciously fucked up. This has to be as evil as ambient music gets.

Good stuff above.

My Led Zep phase seems to be lasting about 20 years.

Listening to this now:

<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/516wYvh%2BcwL._AA240_.jpg" alt=" - " />

Notable for me because,

*I wouldn't make many changes to the track list, and
*The Remastering!

The mix has always been super bad on the cds. This is better. Much better.

I'd still like to hear Bonham a little higher & heavier (Levee Breaks should thump) but it's a HUGE improvement

I really like this. Seen these guys a couple times over the past couple years and was always a little put off by the fact that it's just two dudes playing to tapes and a drum machine, but... I'd usually get over it because they bring the J&MC/BRMC sound and that's always cool. Big waves of feedback, monotone vocals, more waves of feedback. These guys and some of the guys from Place to Bury Strangers used to be in Skywave.

If you're on the fence about checking it out, she covers a Sarah McLachlan song (Adia) and a Dylan song (Knocking on Heavens Door). That should make you want to click it immediately. That and she opens with Sk8er Boi. There is no better.

a while ago we were griping that daft punk had no plans to release a DVD of the tour. i've now come around to the opinion that this was a wise decision - the audio reminded me of how great those shows were, and how impossible it would be to bottle up into a video recording. the two-disk deluxe edition contains a video of "better faster harder stronger", will need to see what that looks like when the disks arrive.

The Ballad of Brian Walalcecl

[has anyone talked about how james murphy / lcd soundsystem has a total mark e. smith vibe going on, especially in "losing my edge"?]

Hes not appreciated.
Hes not appreciated.
Hes not appreciated.

Drink the long draught, dan,
For the hip priest.

I said drink the long draught, dan,
For the hip priest!

Hes not appreciated
Hes not appreciated

White collar hits motorway services
Its the hip priest
From the eyes he can see, they know
Its the hip priest

Hes not appreciated.

Its purple psychology.
Not just an old ladys.

Thats hip hip hip hip hit hit hit hip priest

Thats hip hip hip hip hit hit hit hip priest

And hes gonna make an appearance.
Hes gonna make an appearance.

Was shown in a freakshow early on.
And drunk from small brown bottles since I was so long.

Cause Im a hip priest
Cause Im a hip priest
People only need me when theyre down and gone to seed.
Cause Im a hip priest.
Cause Im a hip priest.

Its appreciation half won.
And they hate their allegiance to hip preacher one.
Hip priest

I got my last clean dirty shirt outta the wardrobe
I got my last clean dirty shirt outta the wardrobe
And all the good people know

Thats hip hip hip hip hit hit hit hip priest

All the young groups know
All the young groups know
They cant ever take advantage because Im a hip priest.
I was as clean as a packet of chocolate chips.

Thats hip hip hip hip hit hit hit hip priest

And if the good people knew they would say
Hes not appreciated
Hes not appreciated

I love that album too. There are a couple others that I sort of associate with the Alcest vibe, though the sound isn't really the same.

Wolves in the Throne Room and Jesu are a little more on the metal side, but have the big guitar wave sound. Place to Bury Strangers is heavy on the Jesus & Mary Chain vibe, lots of feedback. Ceremony is the same, a little more poppy.

Others that don't really sound like Alcest, but seem come from similar places are Om, Working for a Nuclear Free City, Panda Bear, and Six Organs of Admittance.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: azaghal1981 on December 17, 2007, 11:46:00 am

I was thinking "this reminds me of Jesu but with way less synth or low end and way more beautiful melodies" while listening to it. Any idea about other Alcest releases?

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Relaxer on December 17, 2007, 12:40:00 pm

I think that's the only Alcest album proper, though who knows what they've got hidden in Franceland.

Another groovy band that has the whole ethereal-female-voices and walls of sound (though less dense than Alcest) is:

You're welcome.

As usual, I prefer the Cooley songs. Two of Shonna's songs are decent, in a less talented aping Neko light. Patterson's songs really aren't doing it so much for me on first listen, but I'm sure some of them will be growers.

Cooley just had his third kid, and Patterson has one or two (his daughter shares the same name as my grandmother and daughter), so family oriented could be expected...

hmm, i'm kind of the opposite ... i think each album has two or three songs that are equally all-time-great fantastic ("let it be": unsatisfied, i will dare; "tim": left of the dial, little mascara, bastards of young; "pleased to meet me": alex chilton, can't hardly wait, never mind)

but i never really cared for songs like "lay it down clown", "gary's got a boner", "tommy gets his tonsils out", etc ... "pleased to meet me" is just more consistent all the way through ... it's obvious they're reaching for mainstream success, and it sounds amazing

I actually like "Pleased to Meet Me" more than "Tim", but "Kiss Me On the Bus" is pretty sublime.

I have all of these tracks except for the six exclusives, but it's a great introduction to Robert Pollard's non-GBV stuff. It's easy to forget how many great songs he's released until you heard them all lumped together. Good stuff.

Resplandor
The Emerald Down
Alison's Halo
Hinterland
Monster Movie
The Nova Saints

Btw, Spc-Eco is finally putting out something in January but, sadly for me, it's only on (white) vinyl and on iTunes. My turntable isn't usuable and can't use iTunes. It's going to be put out on my friend's label so I'll have to go push him to eventually release it all on CD. I'm one of those who insist on a tangible product with art work but I'd like to also be able to hear it at will.

Okay. I'll stop now.

There is one early demo called "Tristesse Hivernale" and some mini-CD called "Le Secret" but have never seen or heard either. As far as I'm aware, there aren't any obtainable releases but I suspect that "Souvenirs d'un Autre Monde" is a rerelease since there are two different covers going around and each look very similiar. Don't know if it was ever remixed or anything.

Alcest morphed out of another band which was supposedly darker Metal but I've yet to hear any of it. I first heard him (it's one guy called Neige who added on a few others) about a year and a half to two years ago (actually, he found me) but it took me awhile to finally track down and buy the CD. He is rather quiet but I suspect it may have something to do with language differences. Or maybe he's just that kind of guy.

im in love with the setting suns. saw them last night and they just blew my mind away. which makes me wish i had seen swervedriver.

The Setting Suns is a collaboration between Sam Fogarino, drummer from Interpol and Adam Franklin, guitarist and singer from Swervedriver and Toshack Highway. The duo met over dinner in NYC last winter, while being introduced by long time, mutual friend, Jack Rabid (The Big Takeover). The Setting Suns have completed recording their debut five song EP at Electric Lady in NYC and it sounds rather wonderful! Release is scheduled for the fall. Further details will be posted as they develop...

Sir Richard Bishop - Film Score Anatomy

"Limited Edition Signed CDR. 52 minutes. A collection of musical pieces designed to be used on certain SRB film projects, most of which have not yet seen
the light of day, though a few have. There is just a sprinkling of guitar on these pieces. Other instrumentation includes piano, keyboards, strings, electronics,
percussion, shortwave broadcasts, samples, and other ingredients of SRB's approach to "whorecestration"."

Found a nice little surpise in my mailbox this evening. A friend mailed me a promotional copy of the new Bauhaus release called "Go Away White".

Giving it it's 1st trial run now. (Only on the 3rd song called "Undone".) That and the 1st aren't bad but don't knock me out yet. Need a few more listens though to be fair. The 2nd song, "Adrenaline", though had me rocking in a the good early Bauhaus kind of way. :D

My copy has the old traditional art school Bauhaus logo on the front and looks very similiar to this release but obviously different music altogether. At this point, have no clue what the actual release will look like.

<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/3165FXN3KYL._AA240_.jpg" alt=" - " />

The 4th song, "International Bulletproof Talent" is starting out quite nice and full of the old rocking dark Goth that Bauhaus is responsible for, except the '70s style chorus has to go.

-Edit-
Nope, the 4th song, (IBT), turned out to be a stinker. Hoping the other songs come up to "Adrenalin".

German Oak - German Oak

During the summer of 1972, best remembered for the bloodshed of the Munich Olympics, the 5-man DÃ¼sseldorf instrumental group German Oak entered the Luftschutzbunker (Air Raid Shelter) studio to record their first, eponymous album. The purpose of recording in a bunker was to recreate the feelings experienced by German soldiers during the Allied invasion of 1944. The strange acoustic conditions in the bunker made the music, which was a series of long, spacious guitar jams, sound distant and filled with echo.

Valet (Honey Owens from Jackie-O Motherfucker) - Naked Acid

Very nice so far. Liking it much more than her last album.

Some parts sound a tiny bit like Brightblack Morning Light.

Diamond Hoo-Ha Men, while their bass player is on the mend, the rest of Supergrass rock it White Strips style.... Here's hoping the next Supergrass album and tour has some of this fire and grit.

One of the reviews of it started with the line "This is what it would sound like if Animal Collective discovered doom metal." which is fairly accurate so far.

i love the power-pop kind of songs that he wrote for this one, and i thought the production style (lo-fi, distorted, wall of sound type of thing) was a fun change of pace

i don't think at this point that stephin merritt would make an album just like any of his others, so it's fun to see him taking chances with the instrumentation and sounds, and i think they generally work ... i'd love to hear these songs live where they won't be able to replicate the noisy sound of the album, there are some real pop gems on there

So this is an awesome wild ride of an album, kinda all over the place on the shoegaze, drone, lo-fi hissy, post-punk/goth sound. Like Working For a Nuclear Free City, it's one of those long double discs that doesn't immediately have a lot of hooks, but I end up playing it a lot anyway.

On the first couple of listens, I would say this is really good -- much better than the last two. Of course, as with every Clinic album, it sounds pretty similar to all the others.

All in all I give it a hearty thumbs up. I like the psychedelic pop and surf tones, but the girl singer's voice doesn't always work for me, especially when she goes into torch singer mode.

I am looking forward to seeing how they do live. Could be a lot of fun.

have given it a few listens and like it so far - one thing that really striking me this time are the comparisons to nick cave and the bad seeds, obviously different vocal styles but the song structure, call and response remind me a lot of the seeds esp on The Fix and An Audience with the Pope

I attended their two shows in San Francisco last week. I must say that we are luckier than the NYC people because we get to see Daniel Handler (Lemony Snicket) play "Scream and Run Away" (http://youtube.com/watch?v=WgkZXrtBWY8 - from the LA show).

Anyway, great shows if you are a fan of the band (and the 6ths and Gothic Archies)...

Sorry for the delayed response. I love the album. I thought the first album had some standout tracks, but this album is good start to finish. And it's out in the US. Now if only they'd play a show in DC...

first impression: holy fuck! this shit is loud! made me go running for the remote

the sonics are really the story here -- fucked up and fun, sounds at times like it's been recorded once, played back through blown speakers, and then re-recorded ... fascinating to listen to this immediately after "modern times" (especially considering dylan's rant at the time about modern recording methods)

where CYHSY tried and utterly failed to do something interesting with their sound on their 2nd album, this really really really works

PS: i LOVE how the inner groove of side A has this absurd squelching sound repeated over and over (instead of the normal "click, click, click") ... i thought it was the last song on the side until i got up and realized what they were doing

Hey Hoya

While waiting for the next Brendon Benson album, check these guys out. Heard them first on the recent eMusic SXSW samplers and my first reaction was whoa that singer sounds exactly like Brendon... The record got that great 60s pop vibe turned slightly on it's head. One really great song title as well "I Played Her Pet Sounds / She Showed Me Diff'rent Strokes"

Hard to believe these guys are in high school...

I'll give this one a solid B, some real killer tracks and a couple just ok ones... Here's hoping that they don't do what the Caesars did with "Jerk It Out"by including slightly different versions of "Be Your Man" on several albums..

i had a friend who was a chillout DJ, and would occasionally drop some MG in order to make the tripping kiddies freak out... t'was a lot of fun :)

i was never into him much but have enjoyed "lo-fi india abuse" and "beyond the blue mosque", from what i remember. i'm definitely not the right person to ask, tho... he has a huge following, i'm sure there are fan-boards that can make better suggestions.

Quote

Mudcrutch was Tom Petty's original band in Florida before The Heartbreakers. The band broke up after an attempt at stardom in Los Angeles in 1975 and Tom Petty, Mike Campbell, and Benmont Tench went on to form the Heartbreakers while Randall Marsh and Tom Leadon left LA to follow other pursuits. Tom Petty reformed the band in 2007 to record the upcoming album, bringing Campbell, Tench, Leadon, Marsh and Petty back together.

The Mudcrutch album will be available everywhere on April 29

Post by: kosmo vinyl on April 15, 2008, 11:48:00 am

I've been listening to Resident Advisor Podcasts (http://www.residentadvisor.net/podcast.aspx) of late, partly to get a feel for what Minimal Techno is. So far Kevin Saunderson, Stacey Pullen, Underworld and Ron Trent. Looking forward to Alex Smoke, Joris Vroon and Digitalism.

Reading people's comments on these are part of the fun, in fact I believe Mr. Wallace is a fan of techno based on this comment posted for Ron Trent's podcast.

"I want my electronic music to be cold, dark, repetitive, hard, souless, funkless, and for most part completely electronic. "

While RA only has the four most recent podcasts on their site, the older ones are still available on the interweb ;)

New album from Alex Turner of Arctic Monkeys and... some other guy (Miles Kane of The Rascals). It's good -- not as viscerally pleasing as the Monkeys but it shows Turner has more tricks in him than straight-forward guitar rock.

Hooverphonic - The President of the LSD Golf Club

WOW! This is not at all what I was expecting when I downloaded this from eMusic awhile back. Always thought Hooverphonic was more of a trippy poppy dance music act, but on this record they have morphed their sound into an updated a 60's psychedelic pop vibe. One of the best records I've heard so far this year.

Definitely the best album i've heard all year.

I don't know about the rest of the album - but that Numerology song makes me want to stab myself in the ear with a fork. XMU is giving it massive play and I can't stand it.

Such a great album. Got a little buzzy last night, put this on the car hi-fi, got on 66 and next thing I knew, I was in Warrenton. A perfect impromptu drive to a damn near perfect record. Stopped for a new can of dip and put on the Muse compilation that Sweetcell left in my car last year (I just threw out your underwear, hope that's cool) and rocked all the way home.

Yeah, I agree. Have only heard a few songs but they totally changed my mind about what I thought of them. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised. What I heard was quite good.

Don't worry, it healed quickly.

I don't think he was very discriminating as to who he was harassing, as he also pawed several women in the vicinity. Lucky for him he didn't grab my wife, or he would have received more than the slap in the face I gave him.

Kudos to the 9:30 staph, they booted his ass shortly after all this occurred.

The Lucky Soul album Hoya and Brennser have been raving about, very nice it is...

I was thinking their sound was a little more retro, but if you like this be sure to checkout Frankie on eMusic. It's got that latter day St. Etienne and Hooverphonic vibe...

<img src="http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r36/themuslimsinfo/12cover.jpg" alt=" - " />

Assured-beyond-their-years San Diego quartet the Muslims will definitely get a lot of attention for their name, but we're much more interested in the band's catchy, sorta sloppy and stark post-punk-infused rock 'n' roll. They mix a kind of Strokes-y, and therefore VU, detachment and something that bumps in the night like Hell and his Voidoids (or, better yet, Hell and the Heartbreakers doing "Love Comes In Spurts"). You can also hear a bit of the Stooges -- not just because the band cites 'em, along with the Replacements, as an inspiration -- and early Jonathan Richman & the Modern Lovers (see "Future Rock," "On My Time," etc). Whatever the mix of forerunners, the Muslims find a way to make it their own -- it's kinda uncanny. We've been listening to their new 7-song 12" (and the 10-song CD) on repeat (thanks Robots for the heads up),

I'd expect that as a staple in any serious music collection. Possibly mindblowing.

This is nice and haunting so far:

Tom Carter & Christian Kiefer - From The Great American Songbook

"This second collaborative work from the pair is an expansive and ambitious recasting of American music now in the public domain. The influence of the songs
collected here is long and widespread for their style and lyricism, forging a rich tradition and ever evolving history. With their interpretations, Carter
and Kiefer have taken the songs that have seeped into their souls and extended upon them in such a way that brings something entirely new to their original
ideas. Itâ??s something thatâ??s entirely theirs in spite of such source material, and with that, From The Great American Songbook brilliantly reveals a true
hallmark of American music invention.

So, we have the infamous murder ballad Pretty Polly, the comic Camptown Races, the funeral Will The Circle Be Unbroken, the outlaw tale of Jesse James,
the depression piece Hard Times Killinâ?? Floor Blues, the ragtime of The Entertainer and the doomed love trysts of Railroad Boy and The Coo Coo Bird. Carter
and Kiefer have taken the spirit of these as a starting point for their spectral guitar improvisations, then fleshed them out with piano, percussion, bass
and drums. In this thrillingly vast sonic terrain are moments of foreboding, tenderness, melancholy and gut-wrenching rawness.

Two of Kieferâ??s longtime cohorts, Scott Leftridge and Chip Conrad played bass and drums respectively, while Califoneâ??s Ben Massarella handled percussion.

Also contributing to From The Great American Songbook is a host of American musicians â?? including Tony Conrad, James Jackson Toth, Glenn Jones, and Sharron
Krauss â?? with their reminiscences and insights into these songs with which they also found great personal resonance."

can someone explain why this album gets shat on? i really like weller branching out, was it just a contemporary knee-jerk reaction to weller diversifying the jam's sound?

May have just found a new favorite album of '08.

Paavoharju - Laulu Laakson Kukista

Pretty dead-on review here:

"It's hard to pin down precisely what it is that's so alluring about
Finland's hugely acclaimed Paavoharju, but the consensus seems to
have been that their
remarkable debut album "Yha Hamaraa" quite simply managed to marry a
myriad disjointed influences and sound sources without ever sounding
like it was trying
too hard. If you've never heard the music of Paavoharju, prepare
yourself for one of life's more considerable and uncontained
pleasures. They are a band
who take in influence from the "Radio India" style shortwave pop
transmissions of the Sublime Frequencies label, freak folk, Europop,
modern classical,
plunderphonics, choral, devotional, experimental and multicoloured
music of almost every description imaginable - and yet they embody a
specific sound
that's unmistakably their own. Their aforementioned debut "Yha
Hamaraa" made such an impact when it first came out that it seemed
to unify music critics
and the buying public from all ends of the musical spectrum,
worshipped by chin-stroking journalists and passers by alike - one
of those records that you
could play almost anywhere and guarantee people would virtually
queue to ask who it was by and where they could buy it. Their long
awaited follow-up "Laulu
Laakson Kukista" does that remarkable thing and doesn't disappoint.
The scope and energy here is once again impossible to contain -
opening with drone
washes, de-tuned music box tones and vocals degraded by worn down
analogue tape, it sounds like a day in the park, a far away ice
cream van, an orchestra
rehearsing and Fennesz doing a soundcheck all at the same time. From
there we go to "KevÃ¤trumpu" - an absolutely genius generic jamboree
that sounds like
Kylie Minogue playing with a backing band that's half Finnish folk
and half Bolywood session band, recorded to a four-track recorder
that's been thrown
into the sea and discovered 20 years later by some fortunate
anthropologist. Heck, there are even some Autechre-style rhythmic
distortions towards the
end of the track - you just couldn't make it up, and it sounds SO
good. Next - "Tuoksu Tarttuu Meihin" takes in some far away solo
piano and quietly malfunctioning
distortion pedals in a Tim Hecker meets Akira Rabelais sort of
fashion, while "Ursulan Uni" sounds like a cross between Isan and
Philip Jeck - and is just
utterly beautiful. It's virtually impossible to sum up the sheer
brilliance and scope of this schizophrenic yet brilliantly coherent
album, it shimmers
with all the excitement and knowledge of a seemingly endless stream
of influence and once again manages to sound unlike anything you'll
have ever heard
before in your life. And believe us when we say that recommendations
really don't come much higher than that. An utterly Essential
Purchase."

I prefer albums over comps, but this one is pretty great. Nice flow, and I've not heard of most of the bands, so it gives me some new stuff to look for. In the vein of Fuck Buttons and Raccoo-oo-oon, who are both on here. I read a comment by someone who said it's like a modern noise-rock version of Nuggets, and that rang true.

For your convenience, the tracks are alphabetized by band name. 77.2% of these songs are exclusive to the comp.

awesome, thanks for link.

i'm also looking forward to this show. i just realized this past weekend that i had tickets to both M83 and The Presets on the same night in Philly (they're both playing in DC the following night, so same show conflict here too). my Preset tickets are now on CL - would love to catch them, but not at the expense of M83.

its fairly different from what I usually listen to but I like it - I'm not crazy about MIA but there are only 1 or 2 songs that evoke her (and quite honestly I prefer her MIA-like songs to anything MIA has done)

listening to this one now. obviously very great, but my favorite part of it is that the audience is clearly still viewing him as this pure and noble folk/protest singer and you can tell that bob's like, "suckers, just wait for what i'm gonna spring on you in the next couple years." best moment might be when he introduces "it's alright ma" and the title gets a laugh and he goes, "yes, it's a very funny song."

i love how they presented this both sets of this show, the initial acoustic set and then the big fuck-you balls-out plugged-in set

you have to turn the volume up really loud, but you can definitely hear bob say "PLAY IT FUCKING LOUD!" to the Band after the judas comments and a second before kicking into "like a rolling stone" ... spine-tingling moment ... i also love his sneering "i don't belieeeve you, you're a LIAR" response to the heckler who said he'll never listen to him again

wait, now you're confusing me. you posted bootleg 6, which is the all acoustic show on halloween '64 but now you're talking about bootleg 4 which is the famous "royal albert hall" show. both are great, but i was talking about the all acoustic show where he could still play into people's protest singer mindsets and then spring new songs like "gates of eden" and "it's alright ma" on them, knowing it was just the tip of the iceberg.

bootleg 4 is, obviously, one of the greatest musical documents of all-time. and yeah, you can clearly hear both "judas!" and "play fucking loud." but, oddly enough, bootleg 5 (rolling thunder tour) is my favorite to listen to these days.

i love how they presented this both sets of this show, the initial acoustic set and then the big fuck-you balls-out plugged-in set

you have to turn the volume up really loud, but you can definitely hear bob say "PLAY IT FUCKING LOUD!" to the Band after the judas comments and a second before kicking into "like a rolling stone" ... spine-tingling moment ... i also love his sneering "i don't belieeeve you, you're a LIAR" response to the heckler who said he'll never listen to him again

upon further reflection, i was thinking about the bootleg series vol. 4 (1966 royal albert hall show) ... been listening to way too much dylan lately ;)

speaking of which, i've been digging through this "tree with roots" bootleg that compiles all the available and unadulterated basement tapes, it's a good listen:

New eMusic haul last night. First on the list:

<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61amWvtCuOL._AA240_.jpg" alt=" - " />

Pretty good so far. I still think I prefer Paul being the singer, but the new guy is definitely growing on me. This might be their strongest since the Street Warz EP.

Next:

<img src="http://www.clickmusic.com/upload/themidnightorganfight300.jpg" alt=" - " />

Not sure why, but I was expecting to hate this album, but figured I'd download it just to hear what all the fuss was about. So far, I'm really enjoying it. I doubt it will stand the test of time, but it's pretty good indie pop for a nice pre-summer day.

Another eMusic:

<img src="http://static.boomkat.com/images/126299/333.jpg" alt=" - " />

Not really loving this one. I got it based on a recommendation from Joe and the fact that they're opening the Times New Viking show. I could see them maybe pulling this off live, but on record, it's a little too Desaparecidos for my liking.

I'm not in love with this EP either. I prefer the album versions of these songs. Don't get me wrong, the songs are still great. They just seem a bit more atmospheric with less punch. Still, I pretty much love anyone's version of "Some Things Last A Long Time."

Finishing up my eMusic haul:

<img src="http://joanjettbadrep.com/Lyrics/images/jjbr.jpg" alt=" - " />

I forgot how fun this album is. I had a CD copy years ago that I borrowed from my folks, but it's been missing for years, way before I went digital. Such fun...although years of watching Freaks & Geeks has forever associated that show with the title track. Still rocks, though.

Now onto:

<img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/db/Santogoldalbum.jpg" alt=" - " />

So far, pretty boring IMO. It sounds like a not-so-interesting mix of later day No Doubt and MIA. Not bad...but I probably won't listen to it again.

I just got this as well and I like it. Haven't heard them before but kept seeing their name pop up.

Also downloaded an FM broadcast of the Verve's Glastonbury set and am enjoying that a lot. The focus, unfortunately, is on Urban Hymns songs, but it's still good. I am vigorously hoping for a DC date at the club and not, say, an opening slot for Blow Patrol and Cockerville River at Nissan.

I was spoiled by hearing the Japanese release first.

Rainbow is a great intro although it's not very representative of their over all sound. Then again, it's hard to say that they do have a distinct sound since they're so all over the place.

Akuma No Uta is quite good, too.
As is Pink as mentioned above.

I doubt their slower, dronier releases like Feedbacker, Flood or Absolutego will do anything for you but I like them a lot.

I'd agree. I probably dont' listen to them very often, but when I need a 64 minute dose of drone, they usually do the trick.

Per this thread however, I've been listening to both of these all night:

<img src="http://image.allmusic.com/00/amg/cov200/drf900/f915/f91504thctt.jpg" alt=" - " />

Cocteau Twins - Blue Bell Knoll

It's not their best, but it's got some of my favorite songs of theirs like "Blue Bell Knoll", "Cico Buff", and "Ella Megalast Burls Forever".

and

<img src="http://image.allmusic.com/00/amg/cov200/drj900/j994/j99464gjtm0.jpg" alt=" - " />

Ellen Allien - Boogybytes, Vol. 4

Again, not the best of the Boogybytes compilations, but its got a really good sound to it, and I generally love Ellen's taste in picking great minimal tracks. Super fun, though!

new project from zach de la rocha. RATM fans will probably like it, rage-haters should stay away. zach on vocals and synths, jon theodore (ex-mars volta) on drums.

first track is streaming at http://www.onedayasalion.org/ (http://www.onedayasalion.org/) and on the band's myspace page (http://www.myspace.com/onedayasalion).

Gave the new Conor Oberst a spin a little while ago. Solid straight-forward alt-country; the angsty bitchness has all been stripped away (not that I don't like Lifted and I'm Wide Awake) which makes sense; he is getting older.

Then put on another new Carlos Giffoni LP. It had its moments but is no Eternal Noise.

Now: Magnetic Fields - The Wayward Bus.

Nice to hear these guys again, but as their sound has progressed, my liking for them has declined. The 3-album arc of Random Noise-Bursts through Mars Audiac to Emperor Tomato is just superb. But once they started using the vibes, it all kind of went pants up for me. So where there used to be droney noise waves, now it's happy horns, twinkly vibes and bouncy rhythms. Nothing wrong with that, but it's not what I look for with this band.

The new James Jackson Toth (Wooden Wand).

Fucking abysmal.

Sad, really.

He put out some of the best weird folk I've heard in the past.

This album is as generic alt-country as it gets. Well I take that back; Sky Blue Sky is but this isn't too far behind.

Dead Heart Bloom: Chelsea Diaries.

I picked this up because I thought it was on the drone/stoney/metal tip. I was wrong. Nice vocal melodies in the Nick Drake/Elliot Smith school. It clocks in at around 25 mins so it's pefect for the commute.

It's basic beefed-up Strokes rock, but I have a high tolerance for music like that. A month from now, it will probably be something else.

Have listened to the new Franz Ferdinand song about half a dozen times today. I really like this band; they're predictable and they sound pretty much the same as they did before, but they do their angular party rock as well as anyone.

The new British Sea Power is indeed great. It's nice to see other people like it as much as I do. :)

I've been listening to these albums a lot lately:

The Walkmen - You & Me
Oxford Collapse - Remember the Night Parties

The Wrens - The Meadowlands
Teenage Fanclub - Grand Prix
Nick Lowe - Jesus of Cool

Yes, they are comps of some bands you may or may not have heard of. Any of you that take the time to listen will certainly come away with a few gems they didn't know existed. Hipshit is not widely distributed but well worth the effort if you're looking for something new and maybe hadn't been discussed in Pitchfork etc.

Mogwai - Batcat EP

Two great instrumental tracks and a horrendous ballad.

Like...laughably horrible.

The title track is a rocker; heavier than what I'm used to from Mogwai and well-composed. The next one entitled "Stupid Prick Gets Chased by the Police and Loses his Slut Girlfriend" is a slightly shorter, relaxing, pretty composition. I hope the ballad "Devil Rides" was some sort of sick joke and nothing remotely similar to it ends up on the album.

Religious Knives - The Door

It's been great watching this band slowly transform from electronic drone duo to 4-piece psych-rock force to be reckoned with. It sounds like this album is the point they've been working towards for the last four years and so far, it couldn't have come out any better.

49:00 is great. It's such a random assortment of tunes, all kind of thrown together.

Pulled my LP of the below the other night and enjoyed it immensely. Went on a hunt and found a DL-able version on the intermeshes and am enjoying it still.

Never been a fan of them before, but I'm really digging the new Walkmen album. Right in time to see tham at Bumbershoot next Saturday.

Also like the new Stereolab. A bit warmer and poppier than their older stuff, which to me is a bit tedious after a few songs.

Ponytail - Icecream Spiritual

They've become a tight solid instrumental band. I just wish they'd lose that girl who shrieks like a kitten in pain without saying anything. I mean if she were shrieking lyrics, they'd have an excuse to keep her around. Is she the girlfriend of one of the bandmembers and did she force herself into the band that way?
She ruins the whole thing and it's too bad because the rest of the band is good.

Russian Circles - Station

Post-rock with metal leanings similar to Pelican but not as anthemic or heavy. Very good if you're into that sort of thing.

Couple things I'm enjoying lately:

Dirty on Purpose "Hallelujah Sirens" - Kind of shoe-gazey epic pop. Reminds me of Cedars.

Truckasaurus "Tea Parties, Guns and Valor" - Kitschy electronica made entirely with computers and games from the 1980s. Seemed too rinky-dink at first but it's pretty catchy.

annnnnd....

the new Metallica album - there are a lot of things I don't like about it, but... I do like it overall and I'm glad that they've returned to the epic jams with multiple guitar solos. James Hetfield continues his fucking awful singing style from the 90s, with a "-YAH!" added to the end of every goddamn line. But other than that, it's solid and is growing on me after 4-5 spins.

"for your pleasure"

not a huge roxy music fan, but this album is pretty amazing, save "the bogus man"

Nice pick Booker T. Coincidentally I just bought this album 2 weeks ago and have been listening to it ever since. At first I didn't like it but it really grew on me like fungus with repeated listens. Funny how certain albums are like that...

The new TV on the Radio is in the batting circle and it is tremendous. These guys just push the sonic and song-writing envelope. Never took to the debut but LOVED Cookie Mountain and Young Liars. This one will likely top it.

Took me a couple listens to warm up to it but I agree.

"Dancing Choose" is pretty awful, though.

I like everything else.

The last three songs are three of the best songs they've recorded to date.

I've been ALL about this guy, SkÃºli Sverrisson's album "Seria". It's a good one!

Here's a sample of one of the instrumentals:

The Coast Is Never Clear was the third album released by indie rock band Beulah in 2001. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Coast_Is_Never_Clear)

i totally had to look this up. -2 scene points for me.

Oneida covering "Cold Rain and Snow" and "Cream Puff War" (Grateful Dead).

After seeing them a few weeks ago and then hearing this EP, I'm convinced that they're trying to gain entrance into jamband land. Why, I ask would a band with a respectable past such as theirs do this? I thought being labeled as "jamband" = the kiss of death nowadays.

I have been listening to Take Refuge In Clean Living quite a bit the past month. The track Take Refuge sounds like some dark psychedelic spaghetti western.

Pas/Cal - I Was Raised on Matthew, Mark, Luke & Laura

I read somewhere this group was a Belle & Sebastien influenced group from Detroit and seeing as it's not exactly an epicenter for the twee, I was intrigued.

Well I hear the B&S comparison a better reference point might be De Novo Dahl, as there are some heavier psychedelic elements in their sound ala Super Furry Animals. And being from Detroit, they occasionally set their guitars to stun...

Regardless, of what they sound like this is easily one of the best records I've heard all year. Top ten all the way... A good sign of a top notch record is when listening to it in order to figure out which tracks to choose for DJing, you realize there a several ones has marked with stars as being worthy.

what's weird is that it appears that the group has been disbanded since the end of 2006 and did very few performances outside of detroit... wonder what happens with this group now that the indie elitist snob buzz is being to build...

and i agree on the "not too cute for its own good" comment, as i was thinking the same thing... none of the tempo changes, extended songs sound forced or aren't we clever because we can.

been going through those "comprehensive music" threads and downloading stuff i've overlooked ...

this is AWESOME, thanks bearman!

This is a great album.

Just be careful though and DO NOT buy the rerelease. A friend of mine figured out that it was pressed using MP3s. All the highs and lows are gone and it's thinner than the original release. Once this happened, Chapterhouse got wind of it and were pissed off. Since then, Cherry Red (the label) was supposed to make good on those who purchased the rerelease but no one (that I am aware of) has yet received their compensation. Glad I got an original copy before the rerelease.

Since then, Blood Music (which isn't quite as good) has been rereleased. Haven't heard the analysis on this one but I'm sure the band made sure everything was on the up and up after the first debacle.

Hmmm...what have i listened to lately?

I'm loving the new Josh Rouse best of the Rykodisk Years collection.

I'm on the fence in the new Blitzen Trapper album.

I like the new Okkervil River, but not as much as the last one.

I like the new Calexico album much more than their previous album.

The new Lambchop gets boring quickly.

The new Broken West album hasn't grown on me, it's still boring.

The new Jenny Lewis kinda sucks.

I like the new Walkmen album alot. Almost sertainly on my top 10 list.

I just got the Pink Martini's debut from 1997 and like it alot.

I think the Lykke Li album may be a grower.

no it means that since i got it on tuesday that i've listened to it enough times to from hmmmm not so sure about this... to yeah it's sounding like a definite keeper....

plus, the early listens weren't under the most ideal conditions, low volume and distracted a work,

listening to it while driving to work today was the clincher... in fact i test drive lots of music in the car, as it really is the best place where i can focus most of my attention to it.

Squarepusher - Just a Souvenir

So so so so so so good.

Easily eclipses his last one which I loved as well.

Now he just needs to tour again. And if he does tour to support this album, he'd need a drummer. And Brian Chippendale is the only drummer right for the job; so many of these drum tracks sound like they were produced with him in mind.

meh.

totally agree... this outfit would be so much better if it were brendan benson & the racontuers, instead of jack white executive producing a bunch of his buddies... this line-up of talent is comparable of greatness along the lines of Big Star or Teenage Fanclub "Bandwagonese"... the mehness of this album was driven home today when i listened to the new Supergrass which has similar 70s rock influences and sound, but comes of like it was recorded by a band and not someone's ego and his paid henchmen.

edit... The ideal Raconteurs album would be the blending of White's and Benson's finest effort "White Blood Cells" and "Lapaco" with a dash of Greenhornes, what they end up with instead is second string 70's rock...

Because, as I said and you clearly missed or ignored, I loved the previous one and have enjoyed their previous releases as well. Plus, I wouldn't call their sound immediately grabbing, leading me to believe it might be a grower and if that's the case, it seems superficial and shallow to listen it for 2 songs and then decide it sucks. Does that make sense to you?

Go K8teebug! I'm loving the new TVOTR, but then I've loved them since the first time I heard them on the Black Cat Backstage in March 2004. I still think "Staring at the Sun" is the quintessential TV on the Radio song. My first impression is that I like this album more than the "Return to Cookie Mountain". "RtCM" was definitely a grower for me, and I don't think it realized its full potential until I heard the songs live.

I think the new Jenny Lewis album is good, worth getting and listening to for sure, if you're a fan, as long as you don't go it it with expectations of it being as good as or the same as "Rabbit Fur Coat."

Yes, I love Soundpool. Have seen them a few times and they are very good live. Also, I've played them on The Trans-Atlantic Underground via the different stations it's been on including my current station, Brit Radio (http://www.brit-radio-brit.blogspot.com). And if that isn't enough, I've got several Soundpool songs currently airing on my radio station, Air Atlantic Underground (http://www.live365.com/stations/airatlantic). Good stuff. In fact, The TAU is airing now as I type. Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:00PM till midnight. I think I have some Soundpool in this very show. "For Better Or Worse" is airing. I name each TAU show.

Yes, I love Soundpool. Have seen them a few times and they are very good live. Also, I've played them on The Trans-Atlantic Underground via the different stations it's been on including my current station, Brit Radio (http://www.brit-radio-brit.blogspot.com). And if that isn't enough, I've got several Soundpool songs currently airing on my radio station, Air Atlantic Underground (http://www.live365.com/stations/airatlantic). Good stuff. In fact, The TAU is airing now as I type. Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:00PM till midnight. I think I have some Soundpool in this very show. "For Better Or Worse" is airing. I name each TAU show. All playlists listed in my TAU MySpace (http://www.myspace.com/transatlanticunderground) blog. Because I'm actually listening to it now, it keeps me on topic. :D
I'm really enjoying the new stuff I got. They initially peaked my interest around the time I posted those Hipshit Mixes. Hopefully a few on here took advantage of grabbing that. Good stuff and a great way to wade through stuff you may have missed that turn out being gems !

Jay Reatard - Matador Singles '08

He's outdone himself.
The hard-driving aggression of Blood Visions was scaled back in favor of catchy lo-fi pop songs. And they're all just as good as anything on Blood Visions but in a completely different way. A lot of these new songs are slower; wonder if that'll mean a longer show this time around.

The new Lambchop is great. Not sure if it's something that non-regular Lambchop listeners will enjoy, but it's soft and subtle and very moving. Also, it has probably the best packaging of any release this year.

Also, I just heard this band Dead Western. I'm still waiting for the LP to come in the mail, but from the one track I heard, I'm really excited. I'll get back to you guys after I hear it.

the band is back to their old form. it's not going to convert anyone, but fans of their classic blues-rock sound will gobble it up. brian johnson sounds exactly like he did 20 years ago. huge air-guitar potential throughout the album.

I'm a bit geeked out on her, so I'm probably biased, but I think it's a pretty killer cover. I was reading somewhere that she's never (or rarely) learned someone else's song, so this is a first. It actually keeps her style while still being highly recognizable as Journey. Maybe a treat for her DC9 show?

Bloc Party- Intimacy
Overall, not as good as the first two. Still, most fans will enjoy it, some of the songs feels unfinished and weaker songwriting is disguised with glossier production. Ion Square is a great song.

Cure 4.13 Dream
What can you say. Not going to convert anybody, but quite good,much improved from their previous outing. In the vein of Wish.

The Wombats- A guide to love, loss & desperation

Caffeinated rock, some resemblance to the Futureheads but better. Fans of Los Campesinos should give it a listen.

I've been listening to Novillero, the Shins and The Holloways. Gotta love the lyrics to Generator. Always makes me happy and picks me up when I'm feeling blue. Also have been listening to Paul Weller's 99 dreams. Can't get over how good that show was in September.

Always on my ipod, New Order, English Beat, Killers, The Who, Beck and The Jam.

Not the new release but I have an EP I bought a year or two ago and everything was lost on me. Even had a song linked up on Air Atlantic Underground Radio when I first started broadcasting the station but had to stop streaming it because the song was getting on my nerves so badly. Honestly don't know if I'm just listening to the wrong releases or if that band and I don't mesh. I do want to hear it though since so many others with similiar tastes seem to like it.

If we did get any promos, I sure haven't seen them. I've inserted myself into the comp chain, but there's like a dozen hipsters who hover all over the mailroom looking for the free shit. I got it over the waves like everyone else. Initially had the 2-track vinyl rip, but eventually found 192 copies at ease.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: azaghal1981 on December 30, 2008, 04:27:48 pm

Everything uploaded to the torrent sites has been immediately yanked because they're all either transcodes of that 128 vinyl rip or the 160 cd rip.

So aggrevating.

The 160 sounds ok but each track is so densely layered with sound that I'm sure quite a bit is being lost.

radiohead's "ok computer" in a reggae style, from the people who brought us "dub side of the moon". just about any song can be turned into reggae, but it seems like this album was the perfect one for the treatment. this album is a guilty pleasure of mine.

http://www.popmatters.com/pm/feature/69093-slipped-discs-2008-4

Those who claim mainstream country music has lost its connection to the past only needed to look as far as the 2008 country sales charts to find evidence of the contrary, in the form of Jamey Johnson and his second album That Lonesome Song. He pays homage to Waylon Jennings, worries that all the true cowboys have ridden away, and shows pride in his music fitting alphabetically ?between Jennings and Jones?. None of that would matter if he weren?t also carrying on the actual traditions of country, singing the heck out of songs rooted in the darkest side of the human experience. He sings about divorce, bad behavior and sadness, and does so with feeling, wit and a sense of humor. That lonesome song keeps carrying along, and he carries it, through a harrowing, moving, album-length consideration of the hard times people face, have faced, and will always face. Dave Heaton

I haven't heard this song yet, but I've often felt that every Madonna album has at least one great thumpin pop tune. I don't care if it does rip off ABBA, Hung Up was a great song, and I like Ray of Light a fair amount too.

THIS is amazing, Yuksek is an electronic producer but this album sounds like lost [ironically] MGMT/Cut Copy/Midnight Juggernaut songs. Or sort of a mixture of all 3. I'm really surprised by this. Definetly suggest picking this up and giving it a spin, I think one time through is all you need to love this album.

Apes & Androids - Blood Moon: love me some glam rock. i'm pissed that i missed their recent show in williamsburg.

Zeigeist - The Jade Motel: really wanted to like this one, but the first listen left me indifferent. maybe it's a grower, i'll give it another spin.

Cosmic Balearic Beats Vol.1 - tasty, sultry chill house/electro lounge/space disco/etc. great music to listen to while working, for me. highly recommended for fans for slower-paced yet funky EDM.

I'm listening to it as well. I think this is an album requiring a lot of listens.

On first spin, I had a few thoughts, which I shared with sweetcell via IM. My portion of that conversation:

I'm frustrated with Bono throughout the album on my first listen. I want more from him vocally. because I think the rest of the band is doing some really interesting stuff. I don't like his melodies or rhythms a lot of the time on this record. I want to give it some time, but I'm just not sold on it right now. The album isn't remarkably different; to me it is like U2 with Eno as a featured player, almost, rather than Eno changing U2's dynamic dramatically.

I've been listening today, and I like it more than I did yesterday. I don't know if it will continue to improve or if it will level out, but I'm still not too impressed with Bono. Certain songs are sitting better than others - and there are some ACE guitar parts from the Edge on this.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: sweetcell on February 19, 2009, 06:27:06 pm

ha! callat, you beat me to it... i was going to post our chat here, and replace your name with "Boardee X". some of my thoughts from the chat:

it's very U2. some nice song-writing, but i wish they would have done something a bit more... adventurous.
lyrics could be stronger.
i was hoping eno was going to jolt them a bit. don't really feel it, other than a few electronic flourishes
over-all, my first impression was that this is a solid pop album... but do U2 really need to write another pop album?
so in the end, probably the issue is more me than the album. i wanted something different, and U2 gave me a U2 album. hard to fault them for doing that :)

above all based on one listen, at the gym. about to have my second listen on the drive home tonight.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Relaxer on February 19, 2009, 06:36:55 pm

I spun the new U2 once last night and a couple times I thought "hey, that's kind of neat." I personally was cringing throughout all of Unknown Caller but maybe I'll let its earnest vibes do their work. I still think it was a little too uplifting though.

Meanwhile, on Joe Marshmallow's recommendation, I gave the new Trail of Dead a blast and liked it a LOT. We'll see if this grows or fades, but I was happy to hear their ol' black magic again.

Tonight I hope to check out the new Akron/Family record, which is getting lots of high praise.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: njproc on February 20, 2009, 11:38:39 am

Listened to the new U2 on their myspace stream. Only first listen, but pretty underwhelming I thought. I guess I was expecting more with Eno at the helm, especially given what he did with Coldplay. I'm hoping it will improve with further listens.

Have been listening to the Hold Steady's latest- Stay Positive, not exactly my type of music, but a great listen nonetheless. Will only get better with warmer weather.

OMFG IT LEAKED!?!?!?! *FANBOYGASM*

What do you think of this?

Honestly, I was very, very dissappointed other than for the song "Hypermode" which even that is only okay to me. His previous release, Avoiding The Consequences is so much better and I was expecting something at least somewhere near the quality. ATC is such a good album. Recollections sounds to me like Ryan just decided to release some old demo he had lying around which even made me wonder if that was why he called it Recollections Of A Memory. It's definitely a backslide.

Oh, I'm not counting Neverchanger. If you don't have it, do get the single release with the Ulrich Schnauss & other remixes. The Schnauss track alone is a fantastic piece!!! The plain old track on Rec. sucks in comparison.

I really wanted to like this release since I'm such a big fan of ATC & the Neverchanger release but was shocked at how bad I thought it was. Maybe I just need to listen to it again.

With that said, I do wish that I could attend the show. Please let me know how he is live?

Several of us were there. Good show. Those guys really know their instruments and how to manipulate them.

If you like this, you must get their full length called Interceptors. Very cool!

Every time their song "Cathode Ray" and Ringo Deathstarr's "Some Kind Of Sad" come on my radio station, I have to crank them up. (On my end; not broadcast wise.) They are the songs that I've been totally obsessed with lately. Highly recommend both if you like a bit of Rock in your Psychedelia.

Really 3 songs. The other is "99 Pills" by A Beautiful Noise. Not so much their other songs but this one sounds like something right out of the Spiritualized catelogue.

I've heard a lot of people say that AFTER he died, I loved ODB but he wasn't my favorite. Method is number 1 and then I think ODB and probably GZA. ODB was still awesome but I think people give him credit because he went Big Baby Jesus and clocked out. I pay my respects, he was awesome no doubt, but he wasn't my favorite.

I was prepared the give this the benefit of the doubt when I heard about this project, but I have to say, I don't care much for the way this sounds. The guitar tones sound very sterile & digital, and Taylor Hanson still sounds like...Taylor Hanson in 1997. I also wish the hook was better and there was more Iha.

I'm not going to bother with cute little album pictures, but I'll grade these new releases for y'all.

Nick Lowe (new Greatest Hits comp) A
Justin Townes Earle A-
Alela Diane A-
Elvis Perkins in Dearland A-
Great Lake Swimmers B-
Neko Case B-

Haven't heard anything else out in the last month that I'd give a second listen.
Anybody have any new releases to recommend?

What's this all about?

As in what kind of music is it? If that is the question, it is shoegaze with female vocals. Great album.

PJ Harvey and John Parish

for some reason, i always thought that pj was one of those artists that only girls with emotional baggage listen to . . . like tori amos or ani d. but i heard a song or two by her with this john parish fellow, and my it was good.

apparently these guys didn't get the memo that the 90's rave scene, and associated frenetic breakbeat, is dead. this album could have come out 12 years ago (although the production is cleaner than some of their past efforts). surprising amount of guitar in there. definitely recommended if you're a fan of the band, but they really need to lay off the repetitive nonsense lyrics.

i'll file this one under "temporary guilty pleasure" - fun running music and it'll be a great show.

the new reissue of ten by pearl jam. at first i say, wow bucko . . . way to bring an album back from the dead and breathe incredible life into it with a sound so brilliant you can taste the notes. and the bonus songs and unplugged stuff are indeed a delight. then i think, wow fucko . . . way to ruin a generational classic perfection the first time it was released. are you never happy with what you got? finally i just go, "shut the shit up you idiot," and listen to a great reissue.

The comp I got in UK in 95 or so, turned me on to the whole britpop thing. Pulled it out tonight and its great hearing one killer single after another.

I loved all the Shine albums. They have such great songs on them.

every song on the album is solid, not a single piece of filler. the guitar tone is gorgeous throughout.

the song that has me at the moment is "getting old is getting old". check out the audio velvet they have on the vocals - the reverb tail becomes a very subtle pad at the end of each verse. pure cream. very much looking forward to hearing that effect uncompressed.

i've interspersed this album with others since i got it, it's been one on one off. 12-15 listens later, i'm still in love with it.

i'm digging the songs as well... dean's got that great dirty guitar sound without the usual jack white histrionics stomping all over the place. hopefully their debut won't be the let down the racontuers one turned out to be. this is also more evidence that brendan benson and the raconteurs would have been a great thing as i just don't think jack and he ever gelled as songwriters together.

This song makes the Silversun Pickups CD seem like that "3 Dollar bill" record by Limp Bizkit, with the George Michael cover and everything...

Yes, the new Metric album is really good. Every song is great.

unfortunately, though, it has only fueled my borderline stalker obsession with Emily Haines....

Tinted Windows

file this one under "but the little girls understand"

Tinted Windows a pop/rock supergroup of sorts with Taylor Hanson, Bun E. Carlos, Adam Schlesinger and Jame Iha. I sure was skeptical about these guys when the EW reviewer name dropped both Big Star and the Knack when writing about their debut album, so decided to be sure to check them out.

While the record isn't going to change the world or end up on any best of 2009 lists, I suspect this band will be hot ticket if they hit the club and will turn some heads if they appear on any second stages of summer festivals. It's one of the best commercial power pop records I've heard in an awhile, in that it has substance behind that slick production. Contains a couple really great singles and better than average album tracks, which are growing on me with repeated listens.

Overall the sound is best described as Cheap Trick crossed with The Knack.

oh and I'm going through a bit of a The Turtles phase at the moment, perfect springtime music..

New York Dolls and Johnny Thunders/Heartbreakers

I know I'm way late to the party on this, but holy sh*t, I had no idea. Came across a New York Dolls concert from the Matrix in SF from 1973 or 74 on YouTube and it blew me away. I had thought they were 'kitsch' and Johnny Thunders was just a junkie cartoon character . . . I should have known better . . . they were pure rock and roll and Thunders was incredible . . .

dylan's new album....

Same. I'm enjoying it. It's definitely the "New Morning" of his modern day phase.

Good record, nothing that jumps out as "classic," but just an easy record to listen to beginning to end.

I also see it growing on me by the time summer hits.

this is easily one of the 10 best records ever made in my opinion. it was great, after Fall Out Boy left the stage saturday night, the PA system blasted "New Noise" the kids didnt really seem to know what to do so they just left, almost scared!

Funny, I was just coming in here to post this very CD.

Quite nice! What do you think?

Btw, did you order that 93MilllionMilesFromTheSun CD? Mine is currently over the Atlantic. Can't flipping wait for that one to arrive! Have you heard their promo CD or anything from it? Of course, I've got several cuts in regular rotation on Air Atlantic Underground. Rob and Nick sent out these full length promos last summer to a limited amount of friends and fans. I was lucky enough to get one as most within our circle were. We all placed that promo in our best of 2008 releases because it was so amazingly good. Can't wait to hear what they did with the official release. That promo was jam packed full (almost an hour's worth!) of very good music. If I know we will see each other sometime, I can give you a CD-r. Because of a certain trust factor I need to maintain, I absolutely never, ever let promos out but since they freely gave these out to the gang, I know they won't mind. You're gonna love it!

Nice I definitely want to check that out. The official album is really good. Lots of guitar effects, unintelligible singing, droning riffs, etc. In other words, it is some good noise! I didnt get the hard copy, just the digital download that they have.

As for SPC ECO, they are now on my sleep playlist on my ipod. They reminded me of Ulrich Schnauss.

I hope both bands play shows around here in the near future...

I've been listening to this band Dominique on the Kompakt label. They're perfect.

(http://www.whatpeopleplay.com/cover/5/360/5453.jpg)

They released an album called "More Love Now" last year, and it rules. Richard Davis, who is a microhouse producer/singer, known for his work with Superpitcher and Michael Mayer, is a core member of the band. I *love* them.

"Lad" is pretty fucking phenomenal.

Post by: Relaxer on April 29, 2009, 09:41:18 am

The Future of the Left's 2nd release this year, following the live one, is pretty great. Definitely has the McLusky vibe going and it rocks.

New Meat Puppets is good but I need to stop hoping for another II or Up on the Sun. New one is similar to Rise To Your Knees in that it sounds great, the songs are good, but its not particularly compelling.

Listened to half of the new Sonic Youth yesterday. It's okay but I haven't been too excited about anything they've done in awhile, other than Sonic Nurse.

Jason Lytle's first solo one is pretty damn good and is growing on me. Naturally it sounds a bit like Grandaddy but kind goes on that whole "solo debut" route with the sweeping strings et al. Doesn't hold a candle to Sophtware or Sumday but I've been playing it for a week or so.

The-Dream Love vs. Money -- Checked this out because of all the hype and it's pretty damn good! I'm not much of a R&B fan, but this is seriously catchy and well-produced pop in the R. Kelly vein.

The new Gallows album just leaked last night so am really looking forward to hearing that one.

Post by: Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer on April 29, 2009, 09:54:44 am

One of the five best albums of the 90's.

Boo-Tay!

The son of country legend Bobby Bare, Bare Jr.'s music bears only a passing resemblance to that of his father. Sure, there's plenty of traditional country roots that can be heard in the grooves of Boo-Tay -- how could you grow up in Nashville during the '70s with folks like Johnny Cash and George Jones hanging around your house and not soak up some of their influence? For Bare Jr., however, country is not a means to an end but rather another ingredient to throw into an energetic musical gumbo that includes healthy portions of Southern rock and punkish intensity. The songs on Boo-Tay don't just pour out of your stereo speakers, they reach out and grab you by the ears, Bare Jr. kicking out the jams with a vigor that surely had Hank Williams spinning in his grave. Bare's wonderfully imperfect vocals often spiral out of control like a drunken dervish, while guitarist Mike Grimes tears off fleshy, razor-sharp riffs like some sort of bloodthirsty predator. Bare's songs tread familiar lyrical ground, albeit with his own peculiar individual fingerprints, the subject matter on Boo-Tay ranging from self-loathing and lost innocence to betrayal and woefully unrequited love. Cuts like "The Most," "Faker," "Why Don't You Love Me," and the wickedly dark "I Hate Myself" (written with family friend Shel Silverstein) are overflowing with brilliant imagery, not-so-subtle wordplay, and hard-rocking instrumentation, the band adding just enough twang to convince you that they hail from Nashville. One of the more auspicious debut albums of the late '90s, Bare Jr. the band delivered a swift kick to the backside of alternative country and country-rock poseurs alike with Boo-Tay.

The new St. Vincent is jawdroppingly good.

"Laughing with a Mouth of Blood", "Black Rainbow", "Just the Same But Brand New", "The Strangers"...all phenomenal songs.

93MMFTS showed up at my doorstep the other day. As expected, it's a very pleasant piece of work. Over an hour's worth of pure fuzzy Gaze.

Still too soon to say for sure but I kind of think the promo is just a tad better. Of course, that may be just that I need to give it a few more listens to fully absorb what all it has to offer. Though the selections are a bit different, they are very, very close is quality. It's just that in its newness, the promo has that edge by a nose. Seems someone else said the same thing, if I recall correctly. I'm also surprised how many different songs there are between the two. In fact, one of my favorites from the promo isn't even on the official.

Between 93MMFTS and the new Spc-Eco, I'm set for awhile. ;D

* Captain Sensible − guitar (1978-1984, 1989, 1991, 1996-present); bass (1976-1978)
* Monty Oxy Moron − keyboards (1996-present)
* Stu West − bass (2005-present)
* Pinch − drums (1999-present)

She's filled herself with panda blood to avoid all the confusion

Her extinction was nearly absolute when she turned her back on me

All the big chains in the UK demanded a black slip cover over the CD as it was considered "inappropriate".

It's the same artist who did the Holy Bible artwork (which this record is heavily compared to)

I can see why the new album art would be a bit controversial. But man...that is a nice painting. And the Holy Bible cover painting looks interesting as well. Who did them?

New Jets Overhead album is very good. They list their influence as Pink Floyd, The Velvet Underground, Radiohead, The Mamas and the Papas, CSNY, Fleetwood Mac, Spiritualized.... 70s psych rock/folk paired ambient to noisier post punk/shoegazer arrangements all work really well if you as me.

Based on only having heard their last two albums and her two solo albums, I assumed they were an act that put out albums with a few great songs and lots of filler.

But alas, this one is excellent from start to finish.

To mark the 10th anniversary of the Icelandic release of their
breakthrough album 'Agaetis Byrjun', Sigur Ros have made available
two exclusive live performances from the original launch party
concert at the Icelandic Opera House on the night of June 10, 1999 -
back when few people outside Reykjavik hadn't the foggiest clue who
they were.

Watch it here http://vimeo.com/4608579
.

'Nyja Lagid' video - filmed originally for Icelandic TV and unseen
for years, this shows the boys when they really were still boys,
performing a song that never made it onto Agaetis Byrjun (or any
subsequent album) and disappeared from their set-list shortly after
this date. The film also records the last show by original drummer
Gusti. The audio of this live recording was featured on Sigur Ros's
first ex-Iceland release, the 'Svefn-G-Englar' EP.

Download 'Hafssol' here
http://www.sigur-ros.co.uk/band/disco/agaetis.php
.

'Hafssol' audio - a fascinatingly transitional rendition of the
seminal 'Hafssol' (later 'Hafsol'), which has been one of the true
survivors in the band's live show, having appeared in almost
unrecognisably nebulous form on their debut album 'Von', and then
gone through endless transmogrification year by year until its
arrival on 2007's 'Hvarf/Heim' double pack. (If you follow the link
above you can sign up to download the song.)

Hope you enjoy them both. They'll be further celebrations to mark the
10th anniversary of the release of 'Agaetis Byrjun' outside Iceland in
due course, but we will of course let you know.

Have started listening to M-nus record podcast series called "Minus Connections" where the labels artist, etc pick the tracks that influenced them, etc. They make great listening to while traveling in a tin can through concrete tunnels. So far choice tracks from the likes Grandmaster Flash, Kraftwerk, New Order, Jean Micheal Jarre, Model 500, Paperclip People and Steve Hurley.

Then switched it cuz it wasn't really driving music to:

Dead Weather's decent so far, only heard the first 4 or 5 songs. I like the sound, can't wait to sit down and hear the rest. Wale's doing what he does, his track with Lady Gaga is meh though.

I'm listening to the Dead Weather LP myself... I have to say I'm underwhelmed but I have to listen to it a lot more.. I have faith in Jack White.. he's never let me down again...

I wish they'd fit it on one platter... I don't think its much more than 46 minutes and the etching on Side D is just pointless...at least put some extra tracks on it like the songs from the 45... also no cd or download with LP which is OK as I pretty much only listen to vinyl but still...

i'd suggest, rather strongly, that you go to the show. i saw them perform a while back in NYC and their stage show is solid - very rock'n'roll in the classic sense.

jack white fans will get their fill - he comes out from behind the drum kits for several songs - but be aware that alison is the leader of the pack, and a great one at that. she keeps the boys in line.

i'll might be seeing them on thursday in NYC, will depend on my work/travel schedule. i hope i can make it.

Yeah but can he still bring it? He has to be in his 70's. I was on the fence about tonight and decided to skip it.

WRONG CALL!

He can absolutely still bring it and he's 63 by the way and seens 50...guy is in amazing shape...He's always been known for being a great live performer btw

Great last night as always. Sold real well... interesting how well Toots sells for someone who has been hitting the DC market 2 times a year for the past 4 years at least (and that the crowd is pretty darn young)..

You're suffering from what my friend calls fearing the "Lee Scratch Perry experience"

Now Lee did not have it together when I saw him a the 930 about 12-14 years ago. That was sad.

This is what I wrote in 2006 after seeing Toots for the first time.. wasn't much different last night although we were not allowed on the stage for Monkey Man (2006 is still the only time I've been on stage):

i caught the toots and the maytals show last night at the 930 club and BOY O BOY! i'm not exagerating when i say one of the best shows i have ever seen... the positive energy/good vibes this man puts out there are something... his voice is in great form... and anybody that starts their show with their best known song , "Pressure Drop", is doing something right!!....i've never seen the 930 club as rocking as it was last night and he went on stage at 10:45 on a sunday night!....he ran through all the genre defining stuff he's come up with- largely focusing on his classic sides for trojan from the late 60s and early 70s - including "do the reggay" which is supposed to have given birth to the term reggae itself (reggaephiles step up and correct me on that one if i'm off).... i was front row the entire show... what a classy guy..he shook everyone's hand or did the fist to fist move with every single person..this guy made a serious connection with the crowd... towards the end for monkey man about 50 of us clambered on stage to dance as toots and the band delivered the song..so i finally got on stage!..his version of "country roads" with its "take me home country roads west jamaica" refrain had the entire 930 club screaming WEST JAMAICA.... when the show ended at 12:38 it was all big wideyed smiles everywhere you looked...

first you have to host the pic somewhere (your personal web space, picassa, flickr, etc), then you code it by putting the URL of the image between "img" tags, like dis:

Code: [Select]

the other night I sat in a car with a ridiculously high-end stereo system and listened to Mastodon's new Crack the Skye from start to finish while watching planes land at National. It was absolutely amazing. That album is so good, and at any moment, there usually are several interesting things going on. If it weren't for that pesky Fever Ray, this would be my early favorite for album of the year.

Has anyone checked out that Beck Record Club version of VU & Nico? Just ran through it and it's pretty great. Pretty inventive but still faithful to the originals Super loose sounding, but I guess that's the point. Honestly, this is probably the most interesting thing he's done in a decade. The first Leonard Cohen song didn't strike me much, but still interested to hear it.

I know he just started Songs of Leonard Cohen, but I read it was going to be EVOL, which is probably a bit radder than Daydream. Seems like it would have more room to experiment with that one. Either way, it's a pretty interesting concept, for sure.

A Brief History Of Love

I like this much better but mostly only for a few songs. Most of the music on this album doesn't do much for me at all but the few that do, I rather like with the standout track being "Crystal Visions".

Kind of remind me a little of The Silversun Pickups in regards that, though they get dubbed by the mass media as being Shoegaze, they really aren't at all other than for a few tracks which do fall into that territory.

Did anyone happen to catch their show the other week at the Black Cat? If so, how where they?

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: azaghal1981 on October 04, 2009, 12:58:11 pm

Their Black Cat show isn't until december.

I've been staying away from this simply because of the blog hype (9.5/10 blog-hyped albums turn out to be lackluster run-of-the-mill indie-rock and we already have too much of that). People have called SSPU shoegaze? That's funny. They're as much a shoegaze band as the Smashing Pumpkins.

Fully agree with you on all points except that I've forced myself to step out of my usual listening mode so I had some idea of what's going on in the massive world of the mainstream. Kind of an educational venture, so to speak.

And yes, I've often heard or read of others referring to the Pickups as being Shoegaze. Short of a couple songs, no fucking way! My thoughts are exactly the same regarding the Smashing Pumpkins whom I've never liked either, though most Gazers do. To be honest, HFS over playing them for so many years has a whole lot to do with why I can't handle the Pumpkins. As far as the Pickups are concerned, other than a couple songs, I just don't think they are that good. At least not up to all the hype.

I love it. Granted, this is a band who kill it live but still need to work out some recording issues. Far different experiences. Don't think that "I Live My Life To Stand In The Shadow Of Your Heart" comes anywhere close to the live performance but other tracks work nicely recorded.

Love that dirty reverb they do so well, even if it is something that works better live. Also really like how they've picked up a little of The Vandelles influence. Works great for them.

With that said, it kills me that I had to miss their show last night. Life sucks like that sometimes. Really wanted to see Darker My Love too. Did anyone here go? If so, how was it?

Now, now I was only teasing. You get an album in August and are still listening to it on October 4 and claim it has staying power? I guess that says much about the disposability of music in 2009. No need to start namecalling!

there are some horrible lyrics in there ("on the way to the heaven's light, things go up, things go down", sung in a reedicoulos fronche aksent), and the album is rife with crimes against vocoding. there is a sax line or two, and a flute/recorder part, that i could really do without.

despite these shortcomings, i still like the album. it's very playful. had they released "sign sang sung" three months ago, it would have been the indie hit of the summer. the album is also quite cinematic, this could easily have been a soundtrack. the highlight of the album is "night hunter", a space jam that would fit perfectly on an old nightmares on wax album. as always with Air, there are some beautiful analog synths sounds in there </gear geek>.

over-all this album gets a "not bad" from me, good moments but i doubt i'll be coming back to it too often. worth a listen, and who knows... maybe it'll grow on me.

Your review confuses me. If it's "above average outing for the band which makes it better than most", that would necessarily put it in the top three (of their seven) albums. If it's "not on par with their classics", which two albums are their classics? And if #3 is "not bad", where does that leave #4-#7?

It's "not bad" and you "won't be comiing back to it too often", yet you still "like the album"?

Well, the only two other albums of theirs that are actually listenable throughout are Moon Safari and Talkie Walkie. So keeping that in mind, an album of theirs can easily be slightly above average but better than most.

My thoughts are they could have easily outsourced this album, seeing as there are numerous groups doing electronic music with that 60's Bachelor Pad vibe to it. It's not unlike what Stereophonic Space Sound Unlimited have been doing for years.

The Hot Rats very clever cover of the Beastie Boy's "Fight For Your Right", they've taken the track and recorded as a 60's Nuggets Psychedelic Garage band doing it. Also, shades of the Dukes of the Stratosphere.

Comparing Air to Phoenix to Daft Punk all because they're from France is like comparing The Ramones to Blondie to the Talking Heads just because they all came from the same scene. Those bands couldn't be more different in style. Air fills a niche, actually they all do. THat being said, I think Love 2 has a lot of depth and I'll go back to it more than I will to Pocket Symphony or 10,000hz Legend (which was total overkill on the band trying not to sound like themselves...we don't need another ones of those). Really, how many bands can keep doing different records and yet still not betray their sound? I think it's just a little different than some of their other stuff, and I applaud them for making yet another LP that truly has some wonderful songs on it. As for the vocoder, I don't mind it if Air does it.

moon safari and talkie walkie are their classics, IMO. #4 to #7 go from "also not bad" to "wish they hadn't made this album".

Do you have the US or UK version? Even though the UK has like 5 more songs, I prefer the US version. The production on it isn't as muted, IMO. Plus I prefer the order they selected more. It was one case where they really made a good decision to edit it down a bit and make a tighter, more fluid record.

I don't know a thing about Lost but I'm usually pretty good at recognizing posting styles and it sure fits his. Even by the fact that he usually selects someone (real or fictionalized) else's name for his own, even if it's bastardized in some way.

Don't even ask me how we get music out here on the island, but here's what I'm listening to.

(http://caffeine-headache.net/blog3/lucero-1372-overton-park.jpg)

This is dance music for fat chicks in their 30's. The singer sounds like he eats the songbooks of Paul Westerberg and Brent Best for dinner, sits on the toilet, and turns on the tape recorder while he's trying to expel his dinner from his scrawny ass while simultanously smoking a carton of cigarettes. Guys who are attracted to dancing fat chicks in their 30's will like this album, alot.

(http://sites.google.com/site/songitch/Home/The_Clientele-Bonfires_of_the_Heath.jpg)

This is dance music for fat chicks in their 30's who also have bad teeth and short pixie haircuts. I'd love to see a duet between this bands singer and Lucero's singer. Then I'd love to see them in an ultimate fight match. Then I'd love to see them sit down for tea. There's nothing unique about this music, but it's pleasant and innocuous enough to be enjoyed while sipping an autumnal serving of hot cocoa. I'm sure they'd sell a boatload of $50 concert tickets without even releasing an album if Dave Growl played drums for them.

(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_DQORZ_b4JJw/SrVEUYrxsyI/AAAAAAAAArs/3jc1GjG_A5M/s400/Jim_O%27Rourke_The_Visitor_2009.jpg)

This guy (Jim O'Rourke, the album is called "The Visitor" )slept with BOTH Jeff Tweedy and Thurston Moore, making music critics and pitchfork readers everywhere jealous, jealous, jealous. This recording will put a hyperactive toddler to sleep. But unless you have a hyperactive toddler, I say skip in and listen to his more rock-centric 2001 release, Insignificance. I also can't imagine any fat chicks dancing to this music. But fat (male) readers of pitchfork (was I redundant several times over with that phrase?) might try.

Nellie McKay and her dogs sing a tribute to Doris Day. Lots of fat chicks and their gay best friends will love this album. Straight guys can buy this one for your mom for Xmas, but lock yourself in the closet and have a listen yourself. If you're secure enough.

Trentemøller
(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41o1l-77dGL._SL500_AA240_.jpg)
Harbour Boat Trips 01: Copenhagen

Not a bad album at all. Not necessarially a 'must have' but a definite plus to anyone's collection.

Usually I'm not much of a fan of various artists collections. More often than not, they contain a couple great tracks, several good tracks and then a whole lot of filler out and out shit. Almost all of this falls into the 'good' category.

The thing that makes this stand out from almost all other VA collections is the way that it's arranged. First off, Trentemøller has opted to use no buffers between tracks which creates a beautiful flow between the different songs. All of the music works extremely well together. It is very obvious, so much so, that you sometimes don't even notice a change of song. Most VA collections can easily be shuffled around with no real difference in presentation. This collection should be listened to straight through as Trentemøller has intended.

This would be great for those chill out nights where you want something slightly softened to fit that sort of mood, yet upbeat enough to feel some sort of excitement.

All in all, I would definitely recommend this to most of us.

You really did imply it, as I implied the fact that I was eating a BLT when in fact I was doing my 2008 taxes. It's not my fault the messages were mixed.

Irrespectively regardless, I ended up liking that Alberta Gross quite a bit so despite all the trouble that Brennser caused here today, something good came of it.

Love these guys. Ever since I saw a video on Youtube of them (excellently) covering IATTBYH, I've been listening to the few tracks on their myspace regularly. I may have to order that album.

this isn't "what am i listening to", but "what could i be listening to": live shows from many Live Nation venues, bought through iTunes:

iTunes Got Live If You Want It

Looking for live recordings of your favorite concert performers? iTunes? new ?Live? section just might have what you want, especially if the show took place at a Live Nation venue.

Broken down into categories like ?Live In Rock,? ?Live Pop,? ?Live Country,? ?Live Singer/Songwriter? and ?Live Classical,? the section also features more artist-specific selections such as ?Pearl Jam Official 2006 Bootlegs,? ?Jason Mraz Live On Earth? and ?Michael Bublé Meets Madison Square Garden.?

There is also a special Live Nation section debuting today that features exclusive audio and video of shows that took place at the promotion company?s venues. Live Nation has wired many of its venues for the filming and recording of concerts and is now selling the finished products only through iTunes.

?We are thrilled to offer artists a new high-quality platform to share the magic of their live shows with their fans,? said Live Nation president and CEO Michael Rapino.

Some of the titles in the Live Nation section of iTunes' new Live division include ?OK Go Live At the Fillmore New York At Irving Plaza? ($7.99), ?Saving Abel Live At The House Of Blues? ($7.99) and ?Hilary Duff Live At Gibson Amphitheatre August 15, 2007? ($9.99).

Some films can even be rented, meaning the downloads time out and cease playing 30 days after you rent it or 24 hours after you begin playing it, depending on which comes first.

I saw them last Monday at the Black Cat. tix were a wedding present, so I went in knowing nothing about him, other than the single "home" which is all over the place.

Nevertheless, I wasn't too terribly into it, not because it was bad, more because it was just all over the place and inconsistent, being that I didn't know it. Nevertheless, the sold out crowd there seemed to really love it.

Love - Love Lost

"Arthur Lee's seminal work as leader of the '60s band Love is treasured by discerning rock fans around the world. Lee's status as one of his era's preeminent
musical cult heroes has grown immensely in recent years, leading to generations of new fans rediscovering the artist's remarkable catalog. Unfortunately,
Lee and the band's body of available recordings is relatively small, making Sundazed Music's release of a previously-unheard full-length vintage Arthur
Lee and Love album a major musical event.

Love Lost was recorded in 1971, during a brief, little-known period during which Love was signed to Columbia Records. Lee and the then-current Love lineup--bassist
Frank Fayad, guitarist Craig Tarwater and drummer Don Poncher--recorded an album's worth of new material for the label. But after the band left the company,
the recordings sat unreleased and unheard until now. The material on Love Lost--comprised of the unreleased Columbia sessions, plus five unreleased acoustic
demos from the same period--captures Love in a transitional phase, charting the next step in Lee's idiosyncratic musical trajectory, following the lush
garage-psychedelia of the classics Da Capo and Forever Changes, and the bluesier direction of the hardrocking False Start and Out Here.

Many of the songs included on Love Lost would resurface, often in radically different form, on subsequent Love releases, and on Lee's fabled solo album
Vindicator. But the original versions included on Love Lost, boast a playful looseness that's absent from most of Lee's later work, as well as a raw, edgy
urgency that underlines his credentials as an early progenitor of punk-rock attitude. Love Lost also features three songs--"For a Day," "Trippin' & Slippin'"
and "C.F.I. Instrumental"--that have not previously been released, in any form.

With a treasure trove of vintage Love music that has never before been heard by fans, Love Lost is a major addition to Arthur Lee and Love's body of work,
and its release is a major event for Lee's fervent fan base."

Two tracks in. Rather unimpressed.

This is great. I am still listening to it and I can't quite pin it down. Metal isn't the right descriptor even though its really heavy in parts but they blend a whole bunch of influences and for some reason a lot of the guitar work reminds me of Thin Lizzy.

Killsaly, you know that you and I are the only ones who have the slightest clue who these guys are, or even care, around here. That's okay. That's what keeps us deeper in the underground. ;) :D I'm just glad that there is another gazing soul around so I don't feel so lost out in the void; otherwise, don't really want a crowd around anyway. If there are any others, I sure wish they would speak (write) up. Maybe Snail and Az but they tend to be lost over in some other vector in space where our paths occasionaly cross.

All in all, good call!

Talha Asim Wynne

Some young guitar player from Pakistan whom submitted music to me for airplay on Air Atlantic Underground Radio. The guy shows promise but the stand out track that I have up on the station is "(Going Down) Into The Far Reaches Of The Mind" which has a bit of early Verve leanings but a bit more circular. Love that song! Some of the other songs though go off into Prog Rock land while some are more gaze worthy. Will be interesting to hear how he progresses along.

I'm listening to the new Spoon and the new Shearwater.

Both I like, but with reservations.

Spoon's album isn't really as catchy as their last, though it's probably a grower.

Can I like this overwrought album from Shearwater and still make fun of Muse?

Now, hows about some DC tour dates for both?

I also like the new Watson Twins album alot. Much, much better than their first album.

Not as punchy as the first one, but listenable. Giving up the Gun being the highlight. Best song about an old man's penis I've ever heard.

Plus, I'm pretty sure that's a picture of somebody we all thought was the cutest girl in school growing up. She didn't come to the reunion....

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: sweetcell on January 18, 2010, 09:29:05 pm

so i've been listening to a lot of music recently, below are a few recommendations that some of you might like. apologies if i'm behind the curve on some of these, they're all new discoveries for me and i haven't seen them mentioned here before. my first recommendation is dedicated to kosmo:

(http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/205/80873291ew7fk8.jpg)
Bossa n' Roses
attention all cheeseballs: this may be your new favorite album. despite the name, this isn't a bossa nova record - it's a chill-out/electronic lounge take on GnR tunes with some some brazillian rhythms and jazz flourishes. this album was the soundtrack to my xmas beach vacation, and it fit perfectly - i recommend that you save this one for your next trip to the tropics. and like the books one takes to the beach, this isn't high art. it's a guilty pleasure, not Important Music(tm). apparently this is part of a series, "Bossa n' Stones" is supposed to be good too (although one from the series is probably more than enough).

(http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M_jjIJQmP64/SxxhU8bX56I/AAAAAAAAARs/DxQTyYQXAJI/s320/now+it%27s+gone+forever.jpg)
Conclamo - Now It's Gone Forever
slow, atmospheric and at times non-melodic post-rock. each song is very different from the others yet the album works as a cohesive whole. i kept wondering what the band would surprise me with next... and they did, every time. they cover a lot of ground including some interesting rhythmical noise-fests (which usually aren't my thing, but they make it work). IMO this album should be listened to straight-through, in one sitting. azag, you'll like this one.

(http://blog.qubi.com/attach/922/1169140403.jpg)
Glaciers - And The Sea Won The Battle
more post-rock, a solid album, a little more guitar-driven than your average fare. a few solid head-banging moments.

(http://img.youtube.com/vi/w6t42CW7sOE/0.jpg)
Eksperimentoj - s/t
indie rock? post-rock? progressive rock? whatever it is, it rocks. of all the recommendations here i think this one will be the most popular/compatible with the average boardee's tastes. warning to DJs: playing the untitled fourth track over a PA will result in dozens of people inquiring where you got that unreleased radiohead song (but no worries, it's the only one with this affliction).

in case anyone is looking for some psychedelic downtemo/psybient/trippy chillout electronica whachamacallit:

Yggdrasil - Prose Edda: very shpongle-like at times, although a little darker overall. very trippy.
Kuba - Bringing It All Back Home: this guy can do no wrong. of the same caliber as his other releases. blissful.
Koan - When The Silence Is Speaking: from russia, hard to believe i haven't heard of these guys until recently. this, and their other full-length, is packed with lovely melodic goodness.
Deep Dive Corp. - More Bass: dubby space-funk. lots of guest vocalists which, save for one exception, add beautifully to the album.

and:

Agreed. The best tracks are easy contenders for top 10 song of the year (way early, obvs), the average tracks are listenable and the rest are kind of just...there.

Still, Swim gets added to the Shuffle for runs easily.

A Shoegaze cover of the Lady Gaga song "Papparazzi" by my friends the Insect Guide.

Don't worry Az, I haven't crossed over to the other side. This is an amazing cover. Then again, I've never heard the original so can't really say how different it is. Insect Guide are incredibly good though so, at very least, they probably perfected a possibly good song. (Given the Lady the benefit of the doubt.) Have heard a few remixes that Stan (from the band) has done and he's like Ulrich Schnauss in the sense that he does have that knack of fixing up and perfecting other artists music, yet to his own stylings.

You can download it for free but I don't have the link handy at the moment.

Haha! I knew that would get to someone. Seriously though, I am just rarely ever subjected to other's music so don't have to put up with it. When I am, it's rarely mainstream music, even when it's music completely different from my own. That's why I never got all that upset with Coldplay's 'Rush...' like so many others did. It just wasn't in my environments. Don't complain, Jules. It's actually kind of nice not being barraged with lots and lots of crap that I don't want to hear; or, in some cases, over hear.

120 Days

I stumbled into this album on my iPod today, and since I'm trying to clear out some of the inessential stuff on here, decided to list. Apparently, I downloaded this sometime in the past, listened to it and loved it...every song was rated 5 stars. Either this album somehow was accidentally rated, or my taste in music just a few years ago blew.

Daughters - s/t

A new find. Very catchy, almost poppy, despite pummeling guitar/damage noise and David Yow-ish vocals. Really good, fast RAWK. RIYL Jesus Lizard, Brainiac, Parts & Labor

Read about this on PFK today (got 8.7 for what its worth) and pulled it down. I liked their previous one but it kind of faded after awhile. I've only listened to this through once but its also very good though. These guys like anthems, and most of the songs are of the uplifting, sing-a-long variety. Sometimes it sounds a little too earnest and good ol' American, like a harder rocking Bright Eyes, but it sounds pretty good. I expect to like it for a few weeks and then move on (or put Daughters back on).

Next up is the new Caribou, which I'm looking forward to as I loved Andorra

I just spent the better part of a day and a half listening to almost every of Montreal album back to back. I still don't get what the fuss is; they have like one great single for a bunch of shitty funk songs. I did enjoy The Gay Parade and Aldhils Arboretum through The Sunlandic Twins, but man, I have no clue why people love them. I guess paper mache monsters go a long way...

Without trying to out-curmudgeon Kosmo, I'm not getting what all the fuss is about this Tutus Andronicus album? Its shouty, the songs are too long and not that catchy, the "lets repeat one sentence 18 times" choruses are annoying. Soundwise its like a weird mishmash of Springsteen, The Pogues and punk......anyway, its lunchtime at the nursing home so I'm off.... :)

i drove home from VT last night, so i had a lot of quality time with my ipod to catch up on music listening. among the albums that kept me company through the night:

MGMT - Congratulations: didn't do much for me. the 1960's farfisa-life organ bugged. i can almost appreciate what they were trying to do, but that doesn't mean it makes for an interesting album.

The Dead Weather - Sea Of Cowards: need another listen. some good moments but nothing that really stuck with me. main thing that i remember from my first listen-through is "yup, sounds exactly like what i'd expect a new dead weather album to sound like".

Broken Social Scene - Forgiveness Rock Record: amazing, best thing i heard all night. loved the synths. can't wait for the june shows.

The Temper Trap - Conditions: yes, i'm behind the times on this one. better late than never... at times sounded like an indie'r (and generally more interesting) version of coldplay.

Yeasayer - Odd Blood: weirded me out. i wasn't in the mood for it, so i bailed three songs in. will have to try again.

... and a bunch of electronic sh*t that your delicate tastes are probably better off not hearing about.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Relaxer on May 11, 2010, 09:17:03 am

Speaking of electronic shit, which I usually have little love for, I have been digging the new Flying Lotus album quite a bit. Pretty jazzy in a 'Bitches Brew' kind of way. Probably will fade after a week or two, but its been a great late-night spin, even if anything described as "chill" makes me want to give birth.

vids can be viewed from their homepage (thanks, callat703)

EDIT: listened to this twice tonight at the gym and it gets a slightly warmed-over "meh." her voice is nice but slightly generic (and over-processed IMO) and trent isn't really breaking any new ground other than the fact that it's slower than most of his output. a few interesting noise solos/leads and quite a lot of dissonance but that's not really my cup of tea. the previously-released single is the best track IMO. overall it was an OK listen but i don't see myself going back and ever listening to it again.

01 Justin Vernon - ?Bruised Orange (Chain of Sorrow)?
02 Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band - ?Wedding Day in Funeralville?

10 Drive-By Truckers - ?Daddy?s Little Pumpkin?
11 Deer Tick - ?Unwed Fathers? [ft. Liz Isenberg]

Also listening to the new Dierks Bentley bluegrass album, which is quite tasty.

Love Band of Horses but HATE, HATE, HATE the new album. For the most part, they sound
like a sissy 70's pop/rock band (think Loggins and Messina but worse).

Nothing wrong with 70's pop/rock.

The cuts I heard on the radio sounded to me like what I now think of as very commercial formula mainstream Indie. It wasn't offensive but I was not impressed in the least. 'Boring' comes to mind.

I've been listening to the latest She & Him album.

You know, I really don't get the appeal. It's a so-so album, nothing more. 4 or 5 of the tracks sound like B-sides.

I enjoy M. Ward, but if the lead singer wasn't Zooey Deschnael the band would get worse reviews and way fewer people would pay attention.

So you're saying being a marginally famous actress correlates with getting more favorable than deserved critical reviews? Does the same apply to critic's opinions of Juliette Lewis' music?

I like the new album, moreso than the first. It's pleasant, breezy retro pop. A bit like Camera Obscura. Like the aforementioned Band of Horses, it's not trying to reinvent music, but I don't want music to be reinvented anyway.

Yeah, I'm basically saying that.

I mean don't get me wrong, the album isn't terrible. I would give it 3/5 or 3.5/5 stars but I just don't enjoy it as much as others. I can't comment on Juliette Lewis, I've never listened to her stuff.

I think songs like Thieves and In the Sun are strong. But for each one of those there is a song like riding in my car that I just don't enjoy.

Did not know that. I have to mention that although it's on Volume 1, i do think "Change is hard" is a really fantastic song.

I just listened to a cover they did of Richard and Linda Thompson's "When I get to the border". The original is way better. Maybe they just shouldn't cover songs.

I agree with Joe. Something about SSPU just kinda pisses me off, including the fact that they're playing DAR. But I like Against Me and would enjoy a set of their tunes.

And I think I know what it is. In theory, I should love this, but it just seems so sterile. It's like a rocking version of Sufjan Stevens...it's like robots perform the songs on the album. Makes me think I should give them a chance live...but I'm not going to.

The Smokey Bandits is a 14 piece band that moves around a wide music range, from Gotan Project to Calexico, always using in a really imaginative way elements of the Greek and the Balkan music tradition giving a unique and dynamic character to their sound.

The Smokey Bandits project began on October 2007 in the Quasamoto studio in Athens and was finished on 2009?s February with the last compositions and mixes in Thessaloniki. Their sound is inspired by cult movies soundtracks from directors like Quentin Tarantino, Guy Ritchie, Danny Boyle and Pedro Almodovar. The basic idea behind the Smokey Bandits music is to combine music from different decades or even better to give a modern approach to yesterday?s music so that the new generations could easier appreciate. The second idea is to blend 20th century traditional music from all over the world, starting from Greek - Balkan - Mediterranean and reaching Mexican - Surf - Western - Brazilian and Afro Latin.

Im really digging it. It is probably the most consistent release by them yet. All of the tracks are good (in my opinion) and it is causing me to go see them at the club now.

Solo record from Dean Fertita (The Waxings, The Dead Weather, QOTSA, The Ranconteurs) co-produced in part by Brendan Benson who helps on some of the songwriting as well. Recorded with three members of QOTSA.

It's a nice blend of garage rock, psychedelic, british invasion and lots of heavy fuzzed out guitar. Think Ranconteurs only much better, Jack and his big ego isn't stomping all over the place.

is the convenience of everything there provided and cared for in every single lazy way allowable, thus leaving an expected expectation of everything else better being that way, provided forth by itunes . . . really superior to the days when you walked into music stores where ever you lived or were visiting in from (ah that different city record store excitement) having to deal with staff who were either joy connections for new genres or annoying dorks who won't stop asking you if you are finding everything alright, allowing yourself to follow an ongoing life treasure trail of surprise and superiority when coming across that great next listen to? i mean i like the fact that the dictionary is online and it makes it easier than the book, but is that the same? and i am not bagging on itunes, for ihave never used it, never been on it, never downloaded. i like people. i like them being around me so i can mentally break them down into sections of psychic guesses at what kind of lives they have as i shop. but finding music the way it used to be provided, in those shops with great selections or god forbid having to order it from the book, which i know practiced prices that had to pay their outrageous rents just doesn't exist anymore i guess, so what is the point of this post. oh yeah.

i heard that "babs streisand" song by duck sauce. don't get it. you can throw anybody's name in there and it would still be just another pointless song. like anything das racist do. the names don't make a band equal creative, guys. plus i see that superstar kanye is integrating himself into the world of the indierockstar vision. how odd. i hear more hip hoppiness on the sirius xmu channel. too bad the movement is on it's downhill slide like the way that crazy rap music popped a cap in the flannel. but what will replace indie? hopefully something with a sitar. ravi's daughter is underrated. but goodness i love that sufjan stevens fellow. never heard of him, never listened to him, never knew. then i hear the new album, and i go all flamings lips/polyphonic/hotchip/mars volta/dinosaur/widespread in love. whew. the end.

Nkotb's post made me go to the BC website and check out what's coming up and I was DELIGHTED to see this:

Fri Nov 19- CANYON, VANDAVEER, THE DEADMEN, JOHN BUSTINE, BRANDON BUTLER (to benefit DC Lawyers for Youth) $12 Mainstage 9:00

Canyon was such a great band, and the shows they put on at Iota in around '01 and '02 were so great. Brandon Butler was their singer and apparently they had a wicked falling out, so I don't know the details of what happened and if they patched up. But I'm quite happy.

Beady Eye - "Bring The Eye"

beyond the Beatles/Kinks/Jerry Lee Lewis ripoff of a tune it includes the mind blowing lyrics of

""I bring the light, you get to see / you bring the love, it's ecstasy / I see no point in what you're thinking / I'm going out I'm taking you drinking."

It should be noted this song repeats the same verse twice

And about 90 secs of "Baby Come On" on repeat for a chorus

this is probably old news to some, but in case you haven't heard of them:

(http://adolfplaysthejazz.weebly.com/uploads/4/4/0/5/4405520/1083691.jpg)

Adolf Plays the Jazz is a post-rock band (with occasional elements of shoegaze) from greece. they offer all their music for free at http://adolfplaysthejazz.weebly.com/

their style seems to change a little with each album, i recommend "dirty waters" and "melt" - those have interesting little bits of electronica thrown in to the mix. "stealth" is pretty good, "day 4 | urban fiction" is more of a straight-up take on epic post-rock and isn't particularly interesting IMO.

(http://bandcamp.com/files/30/85/3085415998-1.jpg)
another cool find: amos val (http://amosval.bandcamp.com/album/amos-val / http://www.myspace.com/amosvalmusic/), also in the post-rock vein. their free stuff doesn't do justice to their recently-released self-titled full length. recommended.

listened to the (relatively) new autechre album, "oversteps". what a pretentiously horrendous piece of crap. i really wanted to like it but couldn't make it past the 5th track. electronica is sometimes criticized as being nothing but random blips and beeps, but this truly sounds like they let some slow-moving animal walk across a trigger pad that was hooked up to a sampler loaded with random noises. no structure, no themes, just random pointlessness.

Thought this would be fabulous electro-pop but its more 60s garage-y powerpop. Fun stuff.

Also listened to the new Britney Spears while running today. Not bad! Kinda reminds me of Madonna's Confessions on the Dance Floor.

I swear my favorite band right now is Leather. They've only released two 7"s and a demo, but it's just so good. Reminds me of an unsung punk rock band from the 80s called Christ on a Crutch. Just pure, straight-ahead propulsive hardcore.

Also trying my best to get into the new Fucked Up album but it just doesn't have that epic feel of Hidden World. The silver lining is that I've spun Hidden World 5-6 times in the last week and damn, that just might be my pick for favorite disc of the 00s. In fact, for an ad hoc Facebook survey a friend made, called Favorite Records of the 00s, I put that one at #1 because there was nothing else I could think of that I've listened to so consistently. The Knife's Silent Shout was #2.

An exclusive Brendan Benson track prompts me to buy my first ever iTMS purchase and apparently this is the last weekend to get said EP.

I'm admittedly a little late in checking out Raphael Saadiq, but his track in this collection is very good. A little slice of psychedelic 60s pop.

MC Solaar - Cinquième As

my all-time favorite rap album. if you speak french, you need to hear this album - the lyrics are incredible. and for those who don't, i still think this album makes for a very compelling listen. there's a song in spanish, depending which version you get. the music is heavy on the funk and R&B with an occasional forray into world beat/ethno/etc. it's really, really danceable. opinion among the non-french-speakers i've shared this album with is pretty consistent: "no idea what he's saying, but his flow is contagious".

dare i say . . . i enjoy it. i've heard icp stuff before and this sounds like them but not at the same time. perhaps it is just the simple stigma that jack white's name is attached, so somehow it sounds as something else.

i think a lot of people here will like this one. they're being compared to animal collective a lot, but unlike AC these people are actually enjoyable to listen to. their combo of female harmonies and general dream pop-iness remind me of school of seven bells at times.

Bad As Me is terrific. Kinda reminds me a lot of In Rainbows in a roundabout way. While I wouldn't call it his best material, it's a fantastic, relatively concise overview of everything he's good at. Hell Broke Luce is song of the year material.

I really hope he tours. I've never seen him.

Can someone explain the appeal of listening to Tom Waits grunt? The music is marginally interesting, but for me the grunting is just impossible to listen to. He started out as a bit of a singer-songwriter crooner and was pretty decent back in the 70's, but now...no thanks. At least there's a few songs on the new one where he's not grunting.

A good question would be when was the last time Tom Waits played Washington DC? I can't recall him ever playing here... From Google I see he played the Warner Theatre, twice, in late 1987.

This Lonely Crowd no país de Doppeldanger

Mientras tanto, uma encomenda: fazer o release de Doppeldanger, coletânea de lados b do This Lonely Crowd, quinteto formado em Curitiba, já classificado como uma trombada fatal entre o Slowdive e o Smashing Pumpkins. Com peso suficiente pra soterrar ambas. Em qualidade de áudio e talento vistos poucas vezes no rock independente.

Não é sempre que cai no teu colo o disco de uma banda brutal vinda de um gênero às vezes chegado numas frescuras. O shoegaze pariu petardos incríveis por aí desde que nasceu, entre o fim dos 80 e o início dos 90, mas algumas tranqueiras afetadas vieram no vácuo, de franjinha ensebada e som estéril. O TLC vem das poderosas ? um tanto bastarda, já que a sombra do metal paira sobre as cinco cabeças.

Pode ter sido a sombra do metal que os fez juntar Lewis Carroll, Irmãos Grimm e noise de sangrar os ouvidos em um único ambiente. Ou a sandice saudável que dá origem a obras de valor inestimável. O TLC toca como quem compõe, ensaia e vive dentro do guarda-roupas de ?O Leão, a Feiticeira e o Guarda-Roupa?, de CS Lewis, nas Crônicas de Nárnia. Deve ser dali que saíram as ideias para Doppeldanger. Ou do outro lado do espelho, ou do buraco do coelho. Ou das cabeças em sincronia, saídas da mente algo perturbada de Carroll ? se você achar por aí uma outra banda com uma dupla de guitarras chamada Tweedledum e Tweedledee, uma baixista que atende por Red Queen, com Jabberwock na bateria e Humpty Dumpty fazendo guitarra e voz ao mesmo tempo, pegue ela pra você.

15 musicas. E eu tive de ouvir o disco umas três vezes pra aguentar o tranco. Essas linhas só saíram depois de trincar os tímpanos dentro dos fones de ouvido com as pedradas disparadas por Doppeldanger ? ?Playin me heartstrings?, ?First Kid on Mars?, ?Sightseeing in full darkness?? ?Laura?s Coming? (do ep EPhemeris, Sinewave, de 2010) e ?Where is When? (do álbum Some Kind of Pareidolia, Sinewave, de 2011) vieram ao vivo, como nos até agora dois raríssimos shows, vistos por privilegiados. ?What goes on in closetland? é uma opereta feita de trechos de músicas da banda e fragmentos de diálogos dos músicos. Um gravador dentro do guarda-roupa. Deram ainda um nó em ?Everything Counts?, do Depeche Mode, com a voz de Red Queen e cem vezes mais da potência da original. E rebentam guitarras, amplificadores e órgãos internos com uma versão de algumas toneladas de ?Lucid Fairytale?, do Napalm Death (a sombra do metal).

Quando algum paspalho anunciar histérico que o rock está morto, faça-o ouvir Doppeldanger. Três guitarras e um baixo brandidos como tacos de baseball, em meio a eletricidade suficiente para alimentar um quarteirão, devem convencê-lo de que há muita lenha pra queimar. Três EPs, um álbum e um disco de sobras em dois anos não é coisa para principiantes ? o TLC ainda tem mais a produzir. E, cacete, leftovers com o som e a fúria de Doppeldanger separam os homens dos meninos.

Ah, I love this band. Had a couple of their songs on my station for a long time but have since replaced them to make room for other music. Actually, I think I may still have 1 song up. I've lost track with well over a thousand songs. Very soothing music to relax to. Remind me a little of Kwoon and July Skies.

Cool song! Their last album "Absolute Dissent" was great. "2012" should be excellent as well. They still owe us a DC show but I doubt they will come back to the US any time soon.

It'a all on Jaz. He hates the US (politically...not the people who live there). European tour is already outlined.

Personally, I think he owes us for the cancellation last time around. Was so looking forward to that show.

What do you guys reckon the male to female ratio at the Dead Milkmen show will be?

About the same as the dork to non-dork ratio?

Post by: nkotb on February 16, 2012, 12:48:31 pm

God, it can't be good...for either of those ratios.

I will say that Ween shows over the years have definitely seen an uptick in hot women in the audience...but I can't see the same happening here.

Personally, I have absolutely no interest in hot chicks. Don't care about the dork factor. Have given up being concerned about the hot guy factor long ago since it usually means that it would be a gay show. Being straight, that doesn't do me any good; however, it would probably mean that I'd have a damn good time. Ultimately, for me, it makes no difference anymore. I'm there for the music. Wish I could be there for the Dead Milkmen but it's just too far away.

I don't care what anyone says, it's a nice surprise when you go to a show and there are some decent looking women there rather than a bunch of comic book looking fellows.

regardless of who is there, i'll just be happy that i am there. did think about listening to old albums to prepare, but to me . . . that is like watching a trailer for a movie, before you watch the same movie.

and i do enjoy the fact, that we have had no winter this year, except on the weekend the dead milkmen are playing. some people out where i live are calling for 1-2 inches . . . or 6-10 inches. so my drive home on sunday morning might be my own personal "bitching camaro" song story.

Ramones Its Alive

why the hell is beat on the brat not on this thing?

had a ramones day a couple of weeks ago - the live tracks on the expanded version of "leave home" (from the Roxy in LA in 76) blow away "it's alive" IMO (and it has "beat on the brat")

That is a good point.. I just prefer listening to LPs so much though... CDs leave me cold. I still may pick it up although I have Leave Home on vinyl...maybe the show is available on vinyl.. I"lll look around..

Have been rocking the live set on the "Leave Home" reissue in the car lately. That whole show is amazing, 2nd half (starting w/"Listen to My Heart") especially awesome.

Did he/she call her by her actual name or by "twanggirl"?

Twanggirl is pretty generic.

I'm listening to the new Walkmen and liking it.

Liking the new Richard Hawley as well, but not nearly as much as his other albums.

Not sure what you mean. A google search on "twanggirl" gives 5120 hits. Are they all referring the the person on this board who uses that as her screen name?

And of course anyone who calls themself TWANGgirl is going to be an Alejandro Escovedo/alt-country fan.

I've put it on three times in the last day and I always start out thinking "all right, this is good" and then within 3-4 songs, I'm mulling putting on something else like the Intelligence or Dizzy D. The sonics are there but the songs just aren't that memorable, at least not yet.

I like the new Place to Bury Strangers a little more with a few more spins. I just don't get their dickless reliance on drum machines. A rock band needs a drummer, not a drum machine. It's like the difference between a giant magnificent penis and a $9.99 factory second strap-on.

Listening to James Brown's Love Power Peace CD which is a live recording of James Brown with the JBs (Bobby Byrd, Bootsy, Bootsy's brother Phelps "Catfish", Pinckney, Jabo, Fred Wesley, etc. [NO Maceo though]). It is unusual for an artist's greatest recording to be virtually unknown but do yourself a favor and check out this live recording from Paris in March 8 1971 (I was 50 days old and JB was peakin'! OH yah!). The reason its unknown is that although originally scheduled for a 3LP release on King it was shelved when James Brown jumped to the Polydor label and most of his band left him and, eventually, joined George Clinton and became part of the Parliament-Funkadelic crew. It was released in the 1990s on CD cutting out a few songs but most of the show is there...missing a bit of low end but its a solid recording.. Anyways, I'm sending good vibes to Phelps Collins who died in 2010 and although he played on some great stuff seems to me to have been virtually unknown unlike his flashier sibling...I can't recall even knowing he'd died so that tells you something....his playing on this is otherworldly. It can be had new for about $5 (shipping included) on Amazon and is super bad. I do wish I'd told Bootsy how much this recording meant to me when I met him a week or two ago, and, specifically how spellbinding some of his brother's playing is on it but the vibe was good and ultimately that is enough.

Iggy Pop - "Apres"

Unlike other aging "crooners", Iggy has opted not to delve into the American Song catalog for his twilight releases, instead he delivers an interesting take on French Cabaret songs.

"Hey Joe"

Anyone use IHeartRadio? I think it's kind of crap, but it's the only streaming radio type service we can use at work. So lame. It's not so bad sometimes, but other times if you don't 'like' or 'dislike' any song it reverts to some weird generic playlist. All my "rock" stations just go into a hole of Stone Temple Pilots and Soundgarden and awful 90s shit. I don't get it.

The new Jimmy Cliff is surprisingly excellent.

The new Old Crow Medicine show is lots of fun.

Nicola Conte Presents Viagem 4 is some excellent Brazilian.

Tried listening to Frank Ocean, it just wasn?t for me. The fact that it debuted at #2 on Billboard kills walkonby's theory that his coming out would kill his career.

Because Darius Rucker already beat them there? And isn't Bon Jovi's current stuff sounding more and more Country Rock these days, so is that because Country Rock caught up with them?

I have a strange relationship with this album. Some aspects of it annoy me but, somehow, I think its one of the great rock and roll records and I keep going back to it.

For example on Frankenstein Johansen bugs me at the end but Thunders is kicking ass minute after minute and it works.

My dad loves this album, we had it on all the time in the late 80s. (it's kind of the definition of Dad Rock, right?)

Try Stellastarr's first album, which is called Stellastarr.

They traffic in the same sound -- big baritone-boom vocals delivered by artsy/angsty dude, vague air of goth and emo pretension, prominent guitars but complimentary keyboard textures, token hot chick, from NYC obviously.

ok, ok, i'm listening to their first album . . . and here once again is a band that just grabs you from the start and delivers quality song into the next one. and i furiously wonder why isn't this band more famous and that is not fair but more importantly how did i miss them for what, five albums? but then i start to realize they sound like the pixies singing together with modest mouse and big country as the back up band on the porch of some country restaurant, like out of that final scene from emitt otter's. sorry, too much information just to say that i do like stellastarr. actually i really really like them. i feel like i owe you something, for pointing them out, really like them.

WAY better than Beach House. I am a huge Celebration fan (and Katrina Ford in general, if we had a favorite female singers thread, she would be my number one). Ive seen them five or six times now, in a variety of settings, and each show is a magical experience.

And Jag, of course! I scour the internet looking for only the finest noisy, psychedelic, or Dark music to make my daily commute less of a pain (and I try to keep it to cheap or pay what you will digital releases).

god i love celebration. from the first album. i sure the kids listen to them for the first time nowadays and say . . . rip off beach house.
WAY better than Beach House. I am a huge Celebration fan (and Katrina Ford in general, if we had a favorite female singers thread, she would be my number one). Ive seen them five or six times now, in a variety of settings, and each show is a magical experience.

And Jag, of course! I scour the internet looking for only the finest noisy, psychedelic, or Dark music to make my daily commute less of a pain (and I try to keep it to cheap or pay what you will digital releases).

I like Celebration but i don't think they sound much like Beach House. Beach House is better but Celebration puts on a good show. We should have a best female singer of a baltimore band. As we have so many great voices in this town. there is some performance video where katrina ford and victoria legrand perform together in the parking lot accross from the charles.

Villagers - Becoming a Jackal

An Irish chamber pop group that I just found out about, which means lots of that fancy arranging of instruments and such. This is their 2010 with a second which has just come out, which I'm also looking forward to hearing. Big fan of the chamber pop am I...

Got this on heavy rotation at the moment. It's one of the most amazing records I've heard of late. Certainly more compelling than that drippy faux-folk charting at the moment.

Another record I'm way behind in checking out, this is a 2009 album with Rishi Dhir (formerly associated with The High Dials). Lots of 60s British Invasion influences with sitar and other traditional Indian instruments.

An instructional song about Football.
(By Jenn of Wye Oak, Jon of Art Department/White Life/and Chris Freeland)

Not what I was expecting from the people involved. Is that to the tune of another song?

joan jet and the blackhearts - hate myself for loving you

it's also the song used for Sunday Night Football's theme song, "waiting all day for sunday night" as performed by Faith Hill (vocal inflections are the same, also). so despite what joan may or may not have wanted, it's become the official song of football.

One thing that I'm really hating though is not being able to attend all of these shows I really want to see. As much as I love living where I'm living, it's been deadly for my show life.

I'm just getting started...

Amoeba has digitized their massive collection of rare and out-of-print albums and singles and put the downloads up for sale via Amoeba.com's new Vinyl Vaults. (http://www.amoeba.com/music/vinyl-vaults/#page-1)

Everything from long-forgotten Mississippi blues 45s to Louis Armstrong singles to an insane 144 Sun Ra albums have thus far been placed into the Vinyl Vaults, each track beautifully remastered so it retains its original warm sound. There are currently just over a thousand tracks in the Vaults, and Amoeba adds around 10 to 15 more every day, Variety reports. You can also listen to a 90-second preview of each song before purchasing.

Ty Segall seems like the kind of guy who will pop up in DC more than once a year. Jay Reatard was the same way. I saw him open for the Ponys and then just a few months later for Meat Puppets, and there was another set in this time period that I missed, and then he died. But I'll bet Ty Segall will be back by this summer.

One neat thing is that often in the weeks leading up to a show that I'm hot on, I'll listen to the band in question non-stop. Then once the show is over, I usually immediately move on to something else. But I've continued to play the hell out of Ty's records. Really high on him.

Post by: hutch on March 06, 2013, 11:45:46 pm

taking back my comments above... once i got the kids out of the way and was able to focus on the lyrics/songs and actually hear more than the tempo....

i may like this most since boatman's call.. not saying its his best or anything..just that i like it and it does really fit my dour mood of late.... the album is entirely of a piece... almost feels like a concept album (much like boatman's call) of sorts.... having the lyrics in the booklet is essential because some of the lyrics were changed/altered and seeing what happened helps understand the songs more... one song has the entire last stanza chopped off..the last song adds a few lines at the beginning etc...

The Replacements - Songs For Slim

Tracks 1 and 2 are Slim Dunlap covers. "Busted Up" is a tasty New Orleans R&B inspired stomper. With "Radio Hook Word Hit" this track puts a whole lot of bands recording in Lo-Fi on notice.

Had I not checked the credits for track 3 - Gordon Lightfoot's - I'm Not Sayin', I would have swore is a was a vintage 'Mats original.

Tracks 4 and 5 are the standards - "Lost Highway" and "Everything's Coming Up Roses" done as only the 'Mats can do them.

EP is out digitally and will be replaced as a 12" in April.

Entertainment - Dinosaur Jr. Remix

I was wondering how could Dino Jr. possibly remix a Phoenix track... But it would appear the kool kidz now use remix as code for a cover so people will check it out..

needless to say dino jr. have really slowed the song down as only they can.

it's also a bit odd to put out an official cover right before the album release... i guess it's so the other half of the blogsphere will jump on the bandwagon... social media and viral marketing is clearly not for the weak

I've got a friend whose band, Deep Cut, does this all the time lately for bands. Damned good remixes too! Actually, I've seen lots of others too as it does seem to be the latest trend in the music world. Especially for the small independent labels or bands doing the DIY thing.

Ulrich Schnauss has been doing it for years. Maybe one of the musicians who started that trend. At least, within my circle of music lovers.

I personally think the whole remixing thing has gotten a little out of hand, band remixing other bands, endless amateur remixs. This is the first time I've heard a cover called a remix. And don't get me wrong artists releasing covers has been going on since forever, it's just aren't official released so soon after the original. Garage Band for good or bad has forever changed the recording process.

Walter Gross - LA Pink Filth
I Had an Accident Records (based out of Annapolis), a label specializing in dark electronic music, added this CDR to an order I received in the mail today (the awesome debut tape of That Was Then This Is Now).

Quote

Walter Gross is an articulate wonderchild of progressive noise music. His chaotically unorthodox mixes and wonderfully sanguine tapes are composed and constructed out of a refined miscellany of soundscapes, including field recordings (one presumes), monstrous beats, and mass-media fragments. Such qualities truly shine throughout his new album, "LA Pink Filth," which explores the boundaries of IDM composition methods and presents a gritty (sometimes downright filthy) audio underbelly rarely ever acknowledged before.

I listened to the new Strokes once and I doubt I'll listen to it again. I also listened to the Wavves album once and I probably will give it another shot.

However, what I've been listening to a LOT are all the old Bauhaus albums as well as 'Gotham' which is a live reunion show. Really wish the upcoming USMH show was the full band and not PM and hired guns. Though I guess then it wouldn't be at USMH so there's that.

I listened to the new Strokes once and I doubt I'll listen to it again. I also listened to the Wavves album once and I probably will give it another shot.

However, what I've been listening to a LOT are all the old Bauhaus albums as well as 'Gotham' which is a live reunion show. Really wish the upcoming USMH show was the full band and not PM and hired guns. Though I guess then it wouldn't be at USMH so there's that.

the rest of Bauhaus must be positively thrilled about this tour...

Fuck 'em! They like a lot of stuff I can't stand, so there.

Just finished listening to the entire album. A few tracks didn't do it for me but most were pretty good. I too really loved that track. He seems at his best when he allows himself to gaze out on his guitar; otherwise, he has to concentrate on his voice which is not his strong point.

you know its funny you say that because I'd put the LCD Soundsystem show I saw at MPP right up there with the recent Nick Cave show...

I think the Stooges at the 930, LCD and Cave shows may be the best three shows I've seen the past 5-6 years...but of course I've seen many great shows... but those come to mind...

That Stooges show was epic.
And now that a little time has passed I can easily say the Nick at Strathmore was the finest performance I have ever seen by him. Quite a feat as the other 4-5 times were all stellar. The guy works his ass off up there.

My opinion of the new Knife is still all over the place, but it's firmly in the 'tough love' category. I keep thinking, this is great but it's one of those albums I admire while never playing, but then I keep playing it over and over. I definitely skip the 20 minute drone track and that fucking god-awful fracking song -- I don't even see the point of making something that unpleasant. There isn't the catchiness of their best songs but the atmosphere is so smothering that I really like it for late night listening.

But like so many double albums, this will become a blockbuster single album once I edit out all the overly weirdo crap.

you dont deserve to listen. i hate the stupid opera album, but i listen to it and love it because it is the knife. the knife or nothing. you listen to it, you like it, even if you hate, you like it even more. and you never ever say you have an opinion other than you like it . . . when it comes to the knife.

no they arent . . . but i am only basing that on one album. maybe all around, they suck. if i cant stress enough, go listen to martha wainwright and her album come home to mama. awesome. you know that feeling you get when you love a band, and you think their albums are the shit because almost every song on them is killer . . . and you wait for the new one, so excited, and you hear the new single, and it rocks the faith that they still have it. then the album comes out and you get it, and i mean get it in your hands. you listen, you realize why they put out that song as the single. damn you vampire weekend for making your new album, that album.

http://www.metalinjection.net/reviews/album-review-black-sabbath-13

my favourite line of review - "much has been made already of the overly compressed sound quality, which will be a legitimate hindrance to those with decent hi-fi systems, but Rick Rubin and the band were most likely predicting ? probably correctly ? that most people would be listening to the album on cheap earbuds through their smartphones."

i will listen again and give my opinion. ozzy sounds awesome, though. was smiling to hear his voice still there.

ive never listened to a kanye song willingly, except for that one golddigger thing, which was, like jay z big pimping good, and thats good. but for some reason, his personal person ruins any chance of me wanting to take him seriously. i hate the fact that it is true, but it sure still feels fine to be ok that it is true.

I have a question for those who were gushing over the Warm Soda record. Do you approve of the mastering of it? I dont know if maybe it is what they had on bandcamp, but basically I think it is almost not listenable. The songs are very catchy. But the mix balance is WAY off. Horrible mastering. NO BOTTOM END/BASS at all. ALL highs/Treble. Really sounds like garbage. I was wondering if maybe you all had the vinyl release or the itunes release and maybe one of those had a more balanced mix with more of the frequency spectrum present...

I noticed that too and didn't buy it for that reason. It's the band's fault. Bandcamp only accepts WAV and FLAC uploads; all download formats are generated from those uploads. Other than file conversion, Bandcamp doesn't alter the uploads at all (at least AFAIK).

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: killsaly on June 24, 2013, 12:39:04 pm

I didnt mean that bandcamp altered anything. I mean they could submit a different master to bandcamp than they did to iTunes or physical release. Technicolor Teeth did it with their last release (and they said the iTunes one was better).

And then maybe one of those was better than the Zero low end version i bought.

Gotcha. Perhaps iTunes has additional criteria for the quality of submitted masters.

As for Warm Soda, it's as if they uploaded an RIAA-EQ'ed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RIAA_equalization) master (the actual signal cut into the vinyl master) instead of one not EQ'ed. But that would be weird since the RIAA signal is generated between the master playback and the cutting head (again, at least AFAIK).

Recorded on the fly during a brief British tour, Bill Kirchen?s new album, ?Seeds and Stems,? isn?t a concert recording. But it?s easy to overlook that, especially when the guitarist/singer-songwriter, bassist Maurice Cridlin and drummer Jack O?Dell are busy reinvigorating concert favorites with a mix of hot licks, honky-tonk humor and rockabilly verve. All that?s missing is a throng of cheering fans.

There?s a lot to cheer about, too, much of it vibrantly animated by Kirchen?s twang-centric virtuosity. Sure, longtime followers won?t be surprised when ?Hot Rod Lincoln? takes a parade route that gives Kirchen a chance to pay tribute to myriad influences, from Buck Owens to Iggy Pop, but that doesn?t make the ride any less enjoyable.

On the other hand, Bob Dylan?s ?It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry,? laced with sliding double stops, is a welcome reminder of Kirchen?s soulful side, and it?s not the only one. ?Down to Seeds and Stems Again? and ?Mama Hated Diesels? qualify as well. ?Womb to the Tomb,? a ghost-trucker tale, benefits from a slow, wonderfully evocative take.

?Seeds and Stems? isn?t strictly a trio affair. Other performers ? notably keyboardist Austin de Lone and guitarist Jorma Kaukonen ? play a role. But the fundamental sound is lean, loose and about as live as studio sessions get, right down to the amusing bonus track coda, ?Talkin? About Chicken.?

also they remastered digable planets blowout comb, which ruled back then but the sound ruined it and i feel broke up the band. sound . . . broke up a band. but listening to it now, sounds awesome, but probably the memories i have while listening, are the strongest of them all.

Someone out past Warrenton was selling the contents of their storage unit and let me cherry-pick their old lps - I picked up original mono pressings of Miles Davis' "Round About Midnight" and Billie Holiday's
"Lady in Satin" for a buck each, so I'm good. Miles in mono just punches you in the face and Billie's wasted vocals shows how she could do so much with so little.

I am really loving the new Pet Shot Boys album. Haven't been particularly bothered about an album from them in years, but this one just feels right. And today I grabbed the new Goldfrapp album so that's in my immediate future.

Also, I've been playing Bonnie Prince Billy pretty constantly in preparation for Wednesday's show.

YES. I really like them. I think I'd like any band named after my favorite show.

yes. i really like them as well now. first listen and you are hooked . . . that is pretty good for a new band. but that usually means that their next album will suck/be popular, and then people will judge for who they are/not.

Kacey Musgraves - Same Trailer Different Park

So totally adore this album, it's one of my go to listens when my day needs a little brightening up of late. And it's got banjos and stuff on it...

I just added this to my collection, for obvious reasons.

And today I had my annual ear wax removal treatment - for those that haven't had it done - it's brutal.

Anyhow, turns out the perfect album for after that is the new Explosions in the Sky. A band I would have avoided with my hurting ears, but the soundtrack to the new David Gordon Green film is perfect for this occasion.

Speaking of banjos and Musgraves... I'm also smitten with this record as well. It's bouncy UK pop that has shades of Squeeze/ new wave in the sound and it has glockenspiel. It also clears away the morning cobwebs, part of "Kosmo's comfort record series"

Toots and the Maytals "In the Dark" on Dragon 5004 LP... just amazing stuff..so uplifting.. half of this album was put on Funky Kingston for the US market two years later...

Really thinking of Toots these days and hoping he recovers from that ridiculous vodka bottle thrown at him in Richmond a few months ago...on the advice of his doctor he's had to cancel his entire tour -US and Europe- due to continuing headaches and issues....

Steve Earle's Jerusalem

Thinking of trying to catch his show either in C-ville or Richmond later this month if things allow...it been way too long since I saw him at the 930 in the late 90s.. I guess he always plays the Birchmere around here and for some reason I tend to not go to shows there...I'm trying to think what the last show I saw at the Birchmere was and I'm thinking July 1, 2004 Jorge Ben which seems crazy...and that was a bandstand show.... oh wait no it was Liz Phair August 2005... I really don't think I've seen anything there since.. I think I also got off the Americana/Folk train....

99 track compilation to raise money for Tom Carter. Featuring Richard Youngs, MV and EE, Kohoutek (with a 28 minute track), Bardo Pond and a ton of others. Only 7.5 Euro bucks! Cheap!

Quote

This compilation aims to help out with costs incurred during Tom Carter's recovery from the illness which hospitalised him during Charalambides European tour last year. The number of artists who wished to be part of it kept growing & so here it is, a little further down the line than we'd planned, but with so many incredible contributors, we hope it's been worth the wait.

well ok i was thinking savages but wimped out... and the savages record is pretty good, except for being a little over produced. what appeals about the PINS track is it's very straightforward and I like how the girl group influence is a subtle touch to the song like a spice.

Love his stuff from the 80[s and 90's (and saw him countless times) but at this point his voice is too shot for me to listen and lyrics too cliche for me to care. He was good on Treme though.

Love his son's stuff, and would rather see him than his pop at this point.

Bambara - Dreamviolence
I have been digging this album for a while. I finally saw them at Hopscotch and they might have been my favorite set of the weekend. RIYL A Place to Bury Strangers, loudness. Noisy, etc.

Azghahal you should definitely grab this.

I actually really like the new Arcade Fire song. And I think they're a bunch of jerks.

Probably because it sounds like a new LCD Soundsystem song.

The new Sly and the Family Stone box set - Higher! - all weekend long.
Everyone knows the hits, but the focus is on the deep cuts, rarities, odds and sods, etc., so it's all gravy. The book amazing and the bonus disc from Amazon is a more gravy.

Quote

Gang Gang Dance heavy-lifter Brian Degraw is readying a solo LP for 4AD under the name bEEdEEgEE, and he just dropped the mind-bending first single, ?Bricks.? It?s as painstakingly detail-focused as that aleatory snippets of vox and strings that weave in and out of earshot, but it?s also full of very widescreen moments, like the swells of deep horror movie synth that periodically engulf pretty much everything in their path. SUM/ONE is out December 3rd, but you can pre-order it here.

what? I thought it was a solid mixtape. Trap to what? You dont like him? His lyrical content? I usually dont listen to hip hop like that, but i dug his cadence and flow. I usually listen to stuff like Sortahuman or Dizzy D or Western Tink or Danny Brown... Lately been on a Riff Raff kick.

I am working my way through Phantasma Disques catalog, now that they have a Bandcamp account (I had a few releases already, but most of their stuff was released as limited run (less than 100) CDRs and LPs and it was up to individual artists to put up digital versions). The fact that each CDR was an average of £6.00 and shipping from Germany was another £6.00 (so each one was around $20) caused me to skip out on a lot of them. Now I can get the digital copies for around £3.00 to £8.00... Much better...

It's pretty amazing how much female pop is coming out all at once. Avril, Katy, MIA, Gaga, Miley, and Sky with Britney coming up in a couple weeks. Too bad Rihanna is taking a break from her album-a-year routine.

Thus far I'd have to say I would rank them: Sky>Katy>MIA>Miley>Gaga

The Katy Perry is just straight up pure manufactured pop goodness but Sky (which I didn't like at first) has this weirdo tech-sleaze vibe to it, and no I don't really know what that means. MIA and Gaga just aren't doing anything for me, and I need to give Bangerz another spin but I remember not being too into it beyond the singles.

First of all, I love where this thread is going all of a sudden. How are we leaving Ariana Grande out of this discussion? OMG.

The new Avril is amazing. Better than the last one although the two lead singles off the last one absolutely killed.

Loving the new Gaga, and I HATED the third one. It's so fucking good.

Katy has taken a step back on this record but its still tight.

Appreciate the love for Lorde, but I have a feeling it's going to unfairly be a one-hit-single-only record.

Cher Lloyd is really only getting play for one single, but that record is solid. My kind of 19 year old!

Not strictly pop but also new Goldfrapp and Morcheeba

And I will say that Robyn and Kylie are >> then anyone on Relaxer's list.

I personally found the M.I.A. interview on NPR pretty annoying. Oh poor you being "over shadowed" in the US by the author who wrote about being a boy soldier in Sri Lanka. It also says a lot when one's biggest hit involves a Clash bass line.

I like the Sky Eps, but at FreeFest she came of as either to cool to be there or bored. Plus, lots of effects on her vocals.

Have only heard snippets of the Morcheeba but it sounds great. Goldfrapp is total shift away the dance pop sound of late, to a sound not unlike Saint Etienne. Which is kinda of ironic given that one of their old singles is used in an ad at the moment.

I don't think I'm going to like this Ariana Grande too much. I like my pop to be as white as possible, and she's venturing a little too much into R&B territory. On the other hand, I'm listening to the Avril and it might be right up my alley. I think I avoided it for so long because that dickbutt Chad Nickleback is all over it but whattyagonnado.

Another refreshing summer pop album was Haim, though I'm taking a break from that one right now.

I don't think I'm going to like this Ariana Grande too much. I like my pop to be as white as possible, and she's venturing a little too much into R&B territory. On the other hand, I'm listening to the Avril and it might be right up my alley. I think I avoided it for so long because that dickbutt Chad Nickleback is all over it but whattyagonnado.

Another refreshing summer pop album was Haim, though I'm taking a break from that one right now.

The thing about Ariana is she basically does a couple of styles dependent on her co-artist. Check out Popular Song, much more whitebread.

Because I feel like stirring it up even more, the best female "pop" I've heard in while is Kacey Musgraves, don't let the twang and old timey instruments fool you, it's a great fluffy listen,lyrics are super clever.

after watching saturday night live, and listening to the new gaga album once again, start to finish, i must say, it is a good record, not her best record, but a refreshing change record that leads to you believe that gaga can move forward and keep putting out good material, if she doesnt take herself so seriously anymore. miley, bieber and her are now in the race for the prize of who can ruin their career first with nonsense.

While doing some reading on Kowloon Walled City, formerly in Hong Kong, I found this metal band, Kowloon Walled City. Their December 2012 album Container Ships is extremely sludgy, and has been in heavy rotation as of late.

aside from the crack mayor skit, I thought that she had a more compelling screen presence than anyone in the current cast, but that's probably not saying much.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Unsanity on January 11, 2014, 01:44:54 pm

Those Jaxx days are gone now. Its kinda more for teens or something now that its Empire. The headliner Between The Buried and Me is not that good. They have a cult following but I saw them once several years ago and it was awful haha. You could certainly leave early. Just go for Deafheaven and Intronaut. I might go but have not really decided yet. The sound system in there pretty much caters just for heavy metal so it will be loud indeed.

I saw Molly Hatchet at Jaxx (wife's friend's band was an opener).

About halfway through the set, Molly Hatchet's lead guitarist (and last remaining original member) stepped to the mic and said:

"We have a very special guest in the audience tonight. I'd like everyone to give this guy a big round of applause, he truly deserves it. Dave! Dave! C'mon up here!" [people clapping and whistling]

"This is Dave! ........ my cardiologist's brother-in-law" [clapping and whistling come to an abrupt end]

Deafheaven were pretty good when I saw them open for Alcest some time ago, but I just cant listen to Sunbather on repeat. I bought it and gave it a couple spins, but it ended up not even being one of my top 40 favorite albums of last year (though it probably would have ranked in the 41 - 50 range). That album seemed to be the most divisive release of 2013 for my friends on Facebook. People either clowned on it and thought the band was a joke; or sang its praises like it was the second coming. I am one of the people who fall in the middle of that spectrum.

I wonder who's profiting off these. Hopefully his family but it doesn't say anywhere which is a little sketch. I've been binge listening all day. Stuff I haven't heard in years. Will continue for the foreseeable future.

Raffi

we've been listening to raffi..we listen to so much children's music its crazy...sometimes i feel my head may explode..4 of the 5 cds in the upstairs cd discchanger are children's at this point...

I have Raffi's first on LP...what amazed me was to see that Daniel Lanois plays guitar on it!!!

i found the one with baby beluga a few weeks ago...which was cool cause a few months back at my kids school they were reading the story or singing the song or both..unclear... so i promised my kid i'd get it..just took a while

children's music is a fascinating genre.. there is children's music that isn't really children's music ..more like adult music designed to appeal to kids......i'm thinking for example jerry garcia's not for kids only...but then there are some amazing children's music performers.. Ella Jenkins comes to mind...

i also really like local musician barry louis polisar... very funny stuff.. a bit too sophisticated for my kids i'm afraid...but i still put it on

i listen to my own stuff, honestly, mainly in the basement at night.. or in the car..

I just cant binge Fela... its all rather samey... i can listen to an album maybe at a time but binge? impossible..

i like Fela..i think he's great.. i've had moments where i've been like "WOW!" when i listen to him..but honestly there's many other international performers i prefer... fela's music is very funky for sure but the lyrics.. just chanting the same shit over and over again for 10 minutes gets old... actually fela's music in general is fairly repetitive......

i mean lets talk fela.

Haha you're talking to someone who listens to a ton of drone and minimalism regularly. So repetition doesn't bother me. Plus, there are enough subtle changes in the music/lyrics in any given piece to keep a listener's attention.

lyrics?

fela shouting a few anti-colonialism slogans over and over? very simple long-ago discredited stuff.. i mean do you really get into an anti ITT song? Is ITT even around still? the problems with nigeria , i hope we can all agree on now, isn't ITT or even the military dictator/sham democratic ruler dujour (the years go by but all that changes is the name) but the Nigerian people...people never seem to point the finger at themselves..its always the colonial rulers or the few bad apples that come from mars to take over their country against their will or some evil capitalists...its systemic/cultural....the way people relate to each other/get along/do business/the words they use to speak to each other..and I'm not singling out Nigeria or even Africa..i would make the same points with respect to the Palestinians or the Argentines..

and as much as he gets compared to james brown i don't find the music reaches the highs that the jbs do say on love power peace or any of their long jams... sure he had tony allen but did he have bootsy/wesley/pee wee/jabbo/cheese/maceo/byrd on and on and on, etc etc.?.um no.

fela has sort of become the hipsters bible but i doubt many actually even listen to his music...its more like "look, some cool music that one can actually listen to from Africa!"

So no guitar live, either?

Nothing wrong - progression is always welcome, often applauded.

What they've apparently changed into is not something that would normally get me out to the club, though. It's fine to listen to, but I'll need to hear more before I buy tix.

I didn't mean to imply that it was exactly the same, just that chiptune music has existed across a wide swath of music (including hip hop, jazz, and metal) over the last decade plus. I doubt you wanted to actually hear a bunch of the bands, so I just linked Shael's band.

Also, I bet you would like Shael if you met him. You have the exact same political leanings.

This band thinks I?m famous
If I was famous would I be playing here?
I?m sick and tired of all the shit
I?m sick and tired but I can never quit
I got nothing else lined up
I don?t know what I want
Sick of playing to this crowd
Sick of feeling like a coward
But I?m gone like an arrow
And I?m flying through the sky
Just a one man band on the run from the CHI
And I?m down on my luck
As if im doing it wrong
And All my friends say I write the same damn song
They?re wrong
What can I do to make things better?
Nothing is better and it will never be.

I pretty much dislike all forms of country but saw this album repped awhile ago and knew I'd seen it in my buddy's CD collection. So I borrowed it and it's been in constant rotation since.

Also this because my kids are now obsessed with this band. Which, gotta say, I'm delighted about because I think they're great.

a lot of Willie Nelson...

I dont' think anyone has released as many quality albums in the past 20 or so years.....I mean we could be talking 25 to 35 albums at least

I picked up the collaboration with Wynton Marsalis and its a keeper...a stunning keeper....then I was looking in my basement and found something called "Me and the Drummer" on some obscure label and its also great.... The man simply doesn't know how to make a bad album

People always, including myself, always talk bout Dylan and Cash's revival in the 1990s but Nelson's track record I think is far stronger... he consistently averages 1-2 albums a year and collaborates with just about anyone often with really good results.. There's the album produced by Ryan Adams and with Adams and his band.. there's the reggae record which is a lot of fun... just doesn't seem to matter what he does ..its all worthwhile.... the album featuring all songs associated with Cindy Walker is also great...

Hey Hutch, I'd like to get a solid Willie album, can you give a recommendation? I have 'Red-Headed Stranger' but it's so minimalist and mellow that it does nothing for me. Does he have any more uptempo albums?

well that is an intersting question...yes he does.... i also get a bit bored with the red-headed stranger as beloved as it is by the critics

I would have to recommend Shotgun Willie

barring that, and if you're not opposed to live albums, I recommend Willie and the Family Live (its a double cd)

for a newer release I was very impressed with the You Don't Know Me: The Songs of Cindy Walker (2006 release)

An album like Stardust is a bit slow and jazzy.. I wouldn't recommend it in your case although its epic stuff....

the thing about Willie is that he's such a great singer (his phrasing can at times be Billie Holiday-like...behind the beat... just the right emphasis on each word), great songwriter and guitarist....

I'm thinking I have to see him again and its been less than a year...

On the Beach

the second side is really amazing..I may have written about how Nick Cave literally filched the title track for his Higgs Boson blues...

always remember that there ain't nothing like a friend who can tell you that you're pissing in the wind...

That's so true - listen to those 2 songs back to back and it's like a 20 minute fever dream.
I think they really complement each other.
Neil really lures you in on that album - "Walk On" seems amiable enough, but by the time you get to the end of "Ambulance Blues", you're just stunned, laughing/crying, hard to put into words. It's a beautiful feeling.

Nick from Multicult side project. Noise rock. RIYL Multicult. They play the same night as the Thrushes show, so hopefully catching both bands sets will be doable.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Unsanity on May 07, 2014, 03:27:33 am

Is The Wayward really a side project? This band has been around forever. Long before Multicult. They can be good live sometimes. I've seen them really rock but also on "off nights" haha

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Hexenjagd on May 07, 2014, 09:56:07 am

True, but I think he is focusing on Multicult.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Unsanity on May 08, 2014, 04:15:19 am

Multicult are pretty rad, he should do double duty on a show or tour sometime. Both his bands would go well together. I really like Rebecca, Multicult's bassist. I remember seeing her in Fight Amp a long time ago at the Talking Head (best era of that band to me) not only does she rock but also very nice.

Killer Be Killed. Members of: Mastodon, The Dillinger Escape Plan, The Mars Volta with none other than Max Cavalera (Sepultura, Nailbomb, Soulfly). Pretty decent modern heavy metal. http://www.metalsucks.net/2014/05/07/killer-killed-album-premiere/

really? Ok I will take your word for it...when i listened to it i kept thinking "Man, if I was high this would work!"

man i tried.. i like the first few songs and the end two songs... the last song is the best thing on it!!!!!!!!! that tells you something since its a five second recording looped over and over again! if he had done that last song schtick more it might have worked... there isn't enough humour on it...

its too slow and boring..... its amazing that greg shaw produced it... it has none of the sparkle of white pepper..

i did the ultimate test..went down to my mancave basemeent and listened to it a few times in the dark........its just boring overall.....

i want my $8 back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i kid.. i love aaron freeman...will be glad to see him at the rock and roll hotel...
man i want to love it but it ain't happening... will be happy to be at the freeman show but i think the album is weak although i must admit i woke up with the i couldn't play my guitar like a man song in my head..that is definitely a highlight of the album though......

Admittedly, yes... it's slow...however, I wouldn't call it boring at all, but I am a sucker for singer song writer tunes and this I would say falls into that genre. Maybe I'm also just yearning for some new Ween tunes and this fit the bill?

Colossal Head is still one of my favorite albums of the last 20 years.

Check out their side project Latin Playboys. It's like Latino Krautrock.

me too...and we've talked about it before yada.

weird thing is none of their other albums or even the latin playboys do it for me like that one...i think i've got all the los lobos records now except for the neighborhood and the disney one...

its so strange how the album is considered a big letdown.. i think it plain rocks.... i may buy the lp just to get them to sign it and hang it on a wall..its such a classic for me

Alban Berg - Lulu Suite Ormandy/Philadelphia from Clock Tower thrift store in Centreville, VA
Much more concise and listenable than the Loutallica version (which I actually got all the way through ONCE)

Meeks - Beatless (shoegaze covers of Beatles tunes) from 2013. Meeks = Broken Little Sister, an excellent Japanese shoegaze band, who did a great job on these tunes (I am not a Beatles fan but love this album). It is worth seeking out if you are a fan of shoegaze, or the Beatles.

I am going to wait to get a copy of Syro before I listen to it (minus that first preview song).

Right now I am loving the new Interpol, and will possibly try to grab a ticket for one of their sets. I think it is a return to form, and I personally love it way more than that last disappointing record.

I agree on that, the best since Antics. Wish that show was a different weekend.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Rogue Riderhood on September 23, 2014, 11:53:24 am

My favorite was Our Love to Admire, but Antics and Turn on the Bright Lights are extremely close behind. I will need to listen to El Pintor at least a few more times to see where it lands; but on first listen, it definitely surpasses the boring self titled album.

As for seeing them, the last/only time I saw them was at Virgin Fest in 2007. The rain started when the guitarist played the first few notes. It was magical.

But, at least two board members saw them earlier this year and told me it was the worst set either had seen this year. Hopefully I can find a ticket on StubHub and see for myself!

I was there for that as well. Very fitting. I loved that entire mainstage the last half of that day: Spoon -> Panic! At The Disco -> Yeah Yeah Yeahs (one of the best sets I've ever seen) -> Interpol -> Pumpkins

Well, maybe I didn't *love* Panic, but it was amusing to see them try so hard and basically get a bunch of folks ten years older than their target audience stare at them blankly.

Godflesh - A World Lit Only by Fire (Godflesh rule)
Abdu Ali - ALREADY (abdu ali never disappoints; this one is pretty much straight up bmore club)
Horse Lords - Mixtape 1 and Mixtape 3 (I cant wait to see them again soon and get the new LP)
??? (Crosses) (maybe my favorite thing right now)
Deftones - Koi No Yokan (missed this when it first came out somehow)
couples counseling - couples counseling (weirdness, of the female vocal solo electronic variety)
Julian Casablancas+The Voidz - Tyranny (hell yes. Julian brings the weird and I am sad I missed the 930 show... Definitely want to see them)

Haven't been able to get "Maneuvering" out of my head all week. Can't wait to play that tune out this weekend. I first grabbed his EP when "Tuesday" dropped a couple months ago and wasn't into it. I think this mixtape is a better example of his stuff. I'm a fan. Look forward to hearing more from him. Truly unique in today's Hip Hop/R&B scene. Awesome to see everyone becoming a fan.

Helmet; Betty then Aftertaste

I loved their run of Strap it On, Meantime, Betty, and Aftertaste. I do not dig anything from the 2000s. I hope their second set is heavy on Strap it On, Meantime, and Aftertaste, with little to none of the three 2000s albums.

i love that pale blue dots stuff. bunf had been quietly dropping more and more classic songs on recent sfa albums but i think hes just starting to really develop his own style. lots of batshit takes on elo in there to my ears. shame its getting next to no attention. itll be interesting to see what he comes up with whenever he starts writing with gruff again

sfa's my favorite band so i want them back together as soon as possible but the side projects have made the hiatus manageable. have you heard cian's solo albums? i was really surprised how much i liked them. didnt think his vocals would hold my interest over an entire album.

i watched american interior last week. cool movie. even spotted myself in one crowd shot as well as one short interview.

I do find it rather odd that a forum of a web site based on a medium that is very heavily involved and opinionated in politics and the values of a society (or lack thereof) seems to be run in a manner that all but bans discussions of that nature. I really do not see that anyone involved in the discussion was even close to getting out of hand. Oh well I'll go back to my beautiful little life here behind my keyboard and carry on.

new Bowie comp Nothing has changed. (3 disc version) very cool listening in reverse-chronological order - his last 2 decades have really been overlooked (not by me), the mid-80's not as dire as I remember (other than that duet w/jagger) and the 70's and earlier never sounded better. New song "Sue (or in a season of crime)" is a modern jazz murder ballad. Someone on the board recently mentioned that show at the Patriot Center - I was there, too - incredible best of show with new arrangements, super band with earl slick, mike garson, cool dvd of that tour too.

I had pre-ordered the deluxe digital edition via Pledge Music and for some technical reason they couldn't provide the bonus disc as a download so they mailed me a signed copy of the physical Deluxe edition from Switzerland as a replacement. Not sure other than for possibly copyright reasons why couldn't provide the digital download, but I ain't complaining. Wonder if the acoustic covers of other Ash songs on the record caused the problem...

He did not have anyone spellcheck his tracklist?

Bonnoroo? Really? I know it is not a normal word, but if you are going to perform there and write a song about it, at least spell the name right.

It sounds like I had way different experiences at the two Bonnaroos that I attended.

A lot of people yappin' about him... whats his deal?
Standard country-spillover-into-pop type act. Has some bluegrassy elements that appeals to the Fleet Foxes/bearded NW crowd. It's not terrible; it's not amazing.

Reminds me of old-school country. It's a nice listen. Also, I can't stand Fleet Foxes.

my gbv entry point was 'universal truths and cycles' which kicks butt in my opinion - tour stop at metro in pittsburgh was incredible - 50 song setlist - not unusual I know now, but for a newbie, holy cow!
and the miller lite did flow!

I definitely recommend Multicult to all Shellac fans. I am not saying they are the exact same (multicult has more intense singing in my opinion) but the guitar and drum play remind me a bit of each other.

Their newest one

so, i have had a good run of listening pleasures, and this is what i came away with:

charli xcx sucker (ok, not great)

nicki minaj the pinkprint (very, very good. shocked me)

coldplay ghost stories (goodish, not their greatest)

thurston moore the best day (thought it would be bland but it was mature and on point guitar)

the innocents weyes blood (love her voice. nice work all around)

neil young storytone (typical neil solo work, a little slow in parts, great driving music. go neil.)

foo fighters sonic highway (never really listened to them, so i gave it a chance. excellent. new fan.)

azelalia banks broke w/ expensive taste (love her and hate her. sometimes she shines, then, awful.)

pink floyd endless river (love that it takes me back in time, so it is great. one real song? really?)

marilyn manson "new song" deep six (way back in form and about time. killer song)

I finally got around to listening to two albums that have been on my list forever:

Johnny Cash American VI and Willie (Nelson) and the Wheel

Both are really good....no surprise there..

I found it interesting that Mike Campbell, Benmont Tench, Smokey Hormel (currently in Beck's band) and even Jonny Polonski (mispelled Jonny Poloski) played on American VI... the Avett Brothers are on the title track (Ain't No Grave)....

Benmont Tench, at this point, has probably participated on more great sessions than anybody of his generation..he is everywhere..

Marvin Gaye "Sexual Healing" [live]

I consider that a great deep cut...its just not been overplayed to death... and the long ass version just kicks ass...love it..its a shame Marvin couldn't cut an entire album like that...I guess he was already in hell by then...

I have a David Ritz biography of Marvin I got to get to.... Ritz of course got a co-write credit on Sexual Healing after Marvin died and after suing...

some of that Gil Evans stuff is so horrible.. like Sketches of Spain..good lord..probably my least favorite stuff...hard to consider it jazz..

my favorite Miles is probably about 1958... the great sextet with both Cannonball and Coltrane...before, during and immediately after Kind of Blue.....also that record that was credited to Cannonball but is really more a Miles effort imho "Somethin' Else"...

of course there is a ton of great Miles.. I also like the 1964 My Funny Valentine concert (with George Coleman who is underrated [he's also on Herbie's Maiden Voyage which is fabulous and very modal Miles sounding])

exactly.. and what is notable is that he wrote that tune way before Willie Nelson became popular...

He liked Willie Nelson back when Willie was recording for RCA when he was known primarily as a songwriter...way before the Red Headed Stranger album broke him... by that point he'd passed from RCA, been dropped by Atlantic, and moved to Columbia...

For a change I think Pitchfork got their review right for this one. It's one of their weaker releases. That being said, it's not awful by any means. But it's just nowhere near the quality of songwriting and style as some of their other stuff. Overall I give it a B- probably.

Jack White is amazing. I wish his newer stuff was more guitar centric. Even all the stuff he wrote in The Raconteurs, to me, was more straight rock n roll than his solo stuff. I still love his solo stuff, but listening to old Stripes records makes me pine even more for that.

it is amazing, what music can do, for your well being and your state of current affairs. I like to dance around in my kitchen when no one is looking.

My quick review of the Decemberist's record, is that like the new B&S album, it's a good record but just not one I'll likely listen to in heavy rotation like say the new Dan Wilson or Stereo Twins releases. It just hasn't hooked me in, thankfully it's not a concept album, just a collection of well written but not necessarily catchy tunes

More Chuck Berry

If you could distill rock and roll to one slab of vinyl.. if you absolutely had to...I think this would be it...very enjoyable first Chuck Greatest Hits compilation..first inclusion of "Back in the USA" on LP form.... and the original black label (which reads "Chuck Berry Twist" as the album was released for a few months under that title) sounds great.... it has the treble the original issues had...before they messed with the sound...

Quote from: Sidehatch ~~ AKA 'Star Whacker' on February 06, 2015, 10:20:40 am

Elvis Costello - Beyond Belief
over and over

Had no idea he originally recorded this as 'the land of give and take'
Elvis Costello & The Attractions - The Land Of Give And Take (Early Version of Beyond Belief) 1982 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6cRi3U_2Yo)
so glad he went back to the drawing board on this one, as this version pales in comparison

edit- had to post this link to this fan talking about the song and the recording of it

Close Up on Beyond Belief (http://www.elviscostellofans.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=1550)

I always loved this effect recording some of the lines individually, allowing him to hold the end note of one line over the beginning of the next

and this part about Pete's drumming is ...well fantastic
Pete?s drumming drives Beyond Belief forward. He?s often told the story of his single take ?morning after the all night before? drum track. Coming to the studio straight from an all night party, he pleaded with Elvis to let him off work for the day so he could get home to bed. What we get is the guide track Elvis insisted Pete lay down before he was allowed to pull a sickie, so work in the studio could continue. It just so happens that in that moment Pete gave Elvis the key to the song and provided probably the most archetypal Attractions performance ever recorded.

Pete wasn?t just drumming blind drunk, but blind also in the sense that little else of the song was in place, thus his rhythm doesn?t follow any verse/chorus structure, there not being one yet. Things like his drum rolls (except for the later overdubbed deep Kettle drum effect ones) and changes to using the cymbals instead of the hi-hat (which he?d usually do to mark the chorus) are arbitrary and out of sync with the final song. Noticeably, after the line ?you see your Alice?, the drums lose the rhythm completely, except for the pounding kick. It?s to Elvis?s credit that he never got Pete to rerecord his contribution after he?d recovered: ?The strength of Pete?s performance meant that I was able to consider a more ambitious?approach.?

Hutch -

I checked out 4 CDs from the MoCo library system. I'm not particularly recommending them over other Art Blakey CDs, as I checked out what I could get.

1. New York Scene
2. Moanin'
3. Night in Tunisia
4. Miles Davis' Blue Haze, with a bunch of people including Art Blakey, Max Roach, and Kenny Clarke on drums, Percy Heath on Bass, and Horace Silver and Charles Mingus on piano(!).

I am often listening to them when I'm in the kitchen, so I won't comment further except to say I especially like #s 1 and 4.

Happy listening,

I've seen him twice (once as an opener, once as the headliner), about to see him for the third and fourth time in a few weeks (thank you Coachella for bringing artists to CA for 10+ days). The venues keep getting bigger and he hasn't been drowned out yet. He's really fucking good live.

Steady stream of releases as well and everything has his very distinct touch. I wanted a LITTLE more out of this album, but at the end of the day you can't be mad at new Action Bronson.

Kendrick Lamar's album is so insanely out of left field. It's far from being for everyone. His pervious album is way more digestible if you're looking for straight forward rap/hip hop. There's still a story to it though. Butterfly is more of a political statement and more of a confessional for him. It's pretty introverted. It's insane considering how popular he is to do something this.... well, crazy.

Action Bronson doesn't suck! Come on. Lol

"The Corner Laughers are a Californian band who come across like a West Coast Belle and Sebastian. Their indie pop is sassy and smart, intelligent and intricate, twee with bite.It?s bubblegum indie Motown, with a vocal that is both acerbic and angelic."

hutch, learn to picture post. sidehatch, what in the hell, is that? I am listening to a new reba song that is playing after this reba interview I listened to on a Sirius channel, for some reason. You know, she actually pretty good if you are into country music and all, and she does seem to bring it still for someone, who has been in the business, as long, as her. I will never listen to another reba song, but I found it interesting that there is an artist out there that is that good, and I don't care.

was he on drugs?! ive seen Dylan live plenty of times, and that was . . . the oddest performance ive ever seen by him, especially at the end. and he couldn't do a "hit"? really. after being introduced as the greatest songwriter of all time, he does, a cover?

The new Jason Isbell album is top notch. My daughter pointed out that she really liked track #2. She's usually a very vocal critic of dad's music selections, so it was great to hear a positive review from her. When I played the album again a few days later, she asked "Is this Jason Isbell?"

I also played Cyndi Lauper's "She's So Unusual" for her. She pointed out that the second track on that one was also her favorite ("Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"). I countered that "She Bop" was my favorite...she asked me what the song was about...I had to lie and tell her it was "about dancing".

I'm sorry, but there's something creepy about a dad talking to his seven year old girl about masturbation. That's mom's department, and she does it well.

That said, if I had a seven year old son, I'd have no problem talking to him about the glories of masturbation.

every once in a while i like a snorefest album..but it is rare... i think beck's was the best thing he's ever done......some of the string arrangements by his dad are wonderful..its really a very pink floydian album. i think it won the grammy for best album of the year...once in a while they get it right

i'm listening to anita o'day..a cd compilation...part of the diva series...pretty good stuff....though i tend to not be a fan of comps...

Naturally I was thrilled to see walkonby also likes the Thunderfuck album. At first it was annoying but then I found myself walking around saying things like "This is my hair, I don't wear wigs" and "I love hearts not parts" and "Your make-up is terrible" and now I'm totally into it.

pete townshend's 'classic quadrophenia'
about 4 cuts into this and still smiling and enjoying it (could have gone horribly wrong).
if you know and love the original you may too.
orchestral arrangements by pete's wife - new appreciation for pete's orchestral vision on the originals.
if you ever wanted to hear "ZOOT SUIT! WHITE JACKET WITH SIDEBURNS! FIVE INCHES LONG!" shouted by an opera singer, here's your opportunity.

enthusiasm wanes towards the end - the orchestrations are really well done, but a nice strummy bit from pete or a miraculous drum fill from moonie would liven things up.
billy idol is a let down as 'bell boy'.
but those operatic "WHOO'S" and "YEAHHH'S" are hilarious.
they're doing/did(?) a live one-off in the UK, so that would be worth a view.

I don,t have much base to compare to, because I just fell in love with them and haven't heard much of their old stuff except for the songs elephant and feels like we only go backwards, plus some of inner speaker. the older stuff seem so hard pump in your face than the new album, which is stellar and trippier and I want to stop using commas, when I listen to it.

definitely not hip music..

a few years ago I dug out my old coast to coast and it rekindled a connection...then I bought all his records

by the way coast to coast was produced by jim Dickinson...yeah, THAT jim Dickinson

then I went to see g love again after like 15 years and I thought it was fine.. he even signed my coast to coast lp....

then eventually I realized that one of g love's main influences was john Hammond... then I bought a g love produced john Hammond album

and then I realized that while he may not be hip there's a reason I still dig him.. he's pretty darn good

the end

ps I definetly like the laid back blues more than the white boy hip hop but it varies between the albums and even within the albums...coast to coast is the record I really love

I've been on a big REM kick the last few days, especially Reckoning and Fables of the Reconstruction.

They're my favorite. I miss them. I just bought the Mike Mills baseball card for my husband for his birthday.

so it's come to this...

Bowie - five years (http://smarturl.it/5YearsVimeoTOGWT) on the BBC TOGWT

From January 1972 right up to the release of the album, aside from catching Bowie live, the only way you were likely to hear any of the Ziggy material being performed would have been via various BBC radio sessions.

In February 1972, the very first sighting of Ziggy and The Spiders on TV was via the BBC?s The Old Grey Whistle Test (TOGWT).

The very first televised Ziggy song was an emotional rendition of Five Years with Mick Ronson in less familiar role of pianist.

quite possibly my favorite Davy Jones song

Gotta admit I was initially attracted to the cover, which immediately conjured up the term "Women Pool" in my mind. And as it turns out, it's some very catchy techno-pop.

Here are some other wonderful k-poppy albums I've been enjoying lately. All feature pristine production, thumping beats, catchy choruses, and chirpy QT vocals. (Anyone wanting help finding these can PM me)

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Justin Tonation on August 26, 2015, 04:33:19 pm

The story I read was that Microsoft asked for something "inspirational" etc. and it had to be 5 seconds long. Supposedly, Eno submitted 35 pieces. Since it was a commission I guess that Microsoft owns all of them and the other 34 are on a shelf somewhere in Bill Gates' abode.

RE Slayer: I did not think it was that good; but I did only listen to it once, as background noise. Perhaps I will check it out again since you gave it such an enthusiastic review.

I am listening to the new Duran Duran. I am five songs deep, and really digging it.

The new album is fantastic, and folks are always amazed at the number of Duran Duran songs they actually know. I tried desperately to buy 20 tickets to their show at the Greek and call it the Rehearsal Dinner but was shot down pretty forcefully. Alas I will be missing them this tour.

I am working my way through their discography. I was more of a "greatest hits" fan and decided to check out the rest of their tunes, in order. This is my third day of doing that while also listening to newer music. I just haven't posted all the albums as I heard them.

well.. a few of the Cure albums really work better as albums than anything else..Disintegration is the best example..such a mood piece....but same goes for Pornography, Seventeen Seconds....the one that came right before or after Seconds...oh yah FAITH..so good

I also really like Boys Don't Cry as an album though its not an album actually....Three Imaginary Boys is the album..different style though

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: killsaly on September 22, 2015, 03:34:54 pm

The notes I wrote on Facebook about it:

Three Imaginary Boys - horrible
Seventeen Seconds - no thanks
Faith - better; almost pretty good
Pornography - great
the Top - great
The Head on the Door - also great (awesome three album run right there...)
Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me - GARBAGE. Other than Just Like Heaven (a personal favorite) I can barely get through any of their songs... WTF... And this is a fan favorite? I still have to finish the last five songs, I gave up on it.
Disintegration - currently listening. I am enjoying it so far. Way better than Kiss Me.

Three Imaginary Boys - horrible
Seventeen Seconds - no thanks
Faith - better; almost pretty good
Pornography - great
the Top - great
The Head on the Door - also great (awesome three album run right there...)
Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me - GARBAGE. Other than Just Like Heaven (a personal favorite) I can barely get through any of their songs... WTF... And this is a fan favorite? I still have to finish the last five songs, I gave up on it.

the New Order record is the best thing they have done- by far- since Technique (one of my favorite albums of all time)....they went major dance on it!.... Peter Hook is not missed at all...as I predicted years ago its quite easy to replicate his bass sound and lets face it: Barney was writing most of the music......Barney's vocals are straining a bit and the lyrics are even more daft than usual...at times cringeworthy..but that was never their strong suit....Curiously I think the first single is one of the weaker tracks and absolutely not representative of the album which is much more dancey...I'm guessing they released it as the single cause they didn't want a WTF reaction....the La Roux singer is on the record.. the guy from Chemical Brothers produced two of the songs.... Singularity is awesome..the other one is good but not as good... the track Iggy Pop speaks over is reminiscent of Elegia (the music that is)... the album also at times does harken back to Joy Division mainly through the drums.....

Its surprisingly good and I can't wait til they come to DC next year....Its in a different league than Republic (most disappointing album ever...broke my heart), Get Ready and Waiting for the Siren's Call.....

new song, pony, by wavves. they changed, somehow . . . not sure yet, whether for the better. they seem to be tighter and not so much on drugs.

meat wave, delusion moon. never heard of them, gave them a chance. fucking . . . a.

Lloyd Price's The Exciting Lloyd Price..his first album.. on ABC...from 1959.... great early New Orleans Rock and roll if a bit watered down... never realized Big John Patton had been Price's right hand man.. apparently met him about 1954 at a Price gig at the Howard and then became his piano guy and bandleader..John Patton played with Price and then became a Hammond jazz player with some success on the Blue Note label including some real funky stuff with Grant Green (Oh Baby! among others),,, Patton went largely dorman after 1970 but he did play on some John Zorn records (Spillane, etc.) in the 1980s..

Anyways the album has the version of Stagger Lee that went to #1, a remake of a previous Price hit- Lawdy Miss Clawdy- and of greatest interest to me , maybe, his original version of Just Because which John Lennon absolutely tears into on a harrowing version included on his Rock n' Roll record.....

Love the early rock and roll records...

I'm kind of regretting buying USMH tix if they're going to playing a lot of it.

im not sure that I ever liked, the black keys, but I am really liking this thing called the arcs. sounds full.

tried to listen to destroyer and, could not.

liked the foals, what went down. they are like two bands put together, and I think one of them is coldplay.

u2, achtung baby. takes you back, unless you are like, twenty something, reading this. some stinkers as well on the disk, but some great era songs for a complete album. I always think of the lou reeds satellite of love cover for this timeframe of achtung baby.

ramones, live at german television. it all sounds the same after so long, but who cares. its a great show of why I love them.

janet Jackson , unbreakable. yes. sounds like Michael sometimes which is creepy and odd and still damn good. yes, again, yes. well produced, as well.

Plug - Drum 'n' Bass for Papa (some of the first electronic music I got into)

Pitchfork gave it a 9.5 (was searching for info on the album and saw it)
(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/81/Drumnbassforpapaspecial.jpg/220px-Drumnbassforpapaspecial.jpg)

Quote

Plug
Drum'n'Bass for Papa
[Blue Planet/Nothing/Interscope]
Rating: 9.5

In my world -- the world made purely of music -- you can stop by any corner for a little four- piece pop, but if ya wanna hear some drum-n-bass, yer takin' the A train. It's somewhere in the outer reaches of electronic music where it rains fast, dry drumbeats that no human could ever play, and gusts of moaning harmonics blow the landscape. Not a place to hang out.

However, Luke Vibert, aka Plug, has put out this here little 2-CD set that brings the sunshine to this barren pioneer's land. A tremendously rich and complex drum-n-bass foundation (and that is, by the way, exactly what it sounds like: electronic drum [fast] and bass [slow]) with a seamlessly integrated layer of unexpected instruments and samples that make d-n-b viable to the inquiring non-techno listener! Disc one (Drum-n-Bass For Papa) is excellent the way DJ Shadow's Endtroducing is: When you listen to it from start to finish, you sit back and say, "Damn, that's good" with a sigh. Disc two (Plug EP's 1, 2 & 3) is a stronger shade of hard; less listenable but a solid companion. Take your shoes off, take a walk in the sand, enjoy the new day in drum-n-bass, and perhaps we'll go skinny-dipping later.

-James P. Wisdom

In 1999 my friend wanted to be a drum and bass DJ so I played the album for him and he was not impressed (he did have a tiny bit of success in the NOLA/Baton Rouge scenes though). It takes all kinds I guess.

I think it still sounds pretty fresh almost 20 years later.

(reason I revisited it was because Luke Vibert just dropped a new album but I wont listen to it till tomorrow)

I grabbed a couple tapes from the Sound Garden (one Cassette Store Day Release of a Kylesa album and then a copy of the new Height album) but I knew they were participating. They had a good bit left by the time I got there at 4:30 (I had to wait for the marathon to finish before I went) but still nothing close to what they get for Record Store Day.

I decided to listen to all of the Killing Joke albums in order. So far today I finished the self titled debut and What's THIS For...! (dug them both)

Currently I am on Revelations (which features my favorite song so far, the excellent The Pandys Are Coming.

I was randomly skipping around their discography earlier this month, but after listening to Outside the Gate (WTF, I was not expecting that) I decided to listen in order (and of course read the wikipedia articles on each album).

My first radio show!!!!! I wrote for a blog and made playlists and called then "SQUAT Music" and then the blog was re-branded and blah blah, so I got kind of left out. I was waiting for another outlet and never really got one, so I said fuck it and made my own outlet! It's just over an hour and it's mostly Club music and tons of stuff from local producers. It's all Dance music and it's kind of hyped up, so if it's not your cup, no worries! Would appreciate if you checked it out if you like dance music tho! :D

Vangoffey - 'Take Your Jacket off & Get Into It'

Supergrass drummer goes solo with a seriously fun listen debut album. Reminds me of those DIY New Wave/Power pop compilations with a dash of Britpop cheek.

worthwhile if you're a bowie completist.
i've read that the live tin machine cd is the one to get if you can find it.
saw ronson w/ian hunter at the stanley theatre in pgh long ago, opening local band was the iron city houserockers (whose 2nd album mick was producing at the time - "have a good time but get out alive")

New Grimes album

I've listened to it a few times now and it'll probably end up being similar to how I felt about Visions -- a few incredible songs, a bunch of p good songs, and a couple WTF songs that are stupid

I'd probably put the hit/miss ratio at around 65/35 and if that changes, it will only get better. In fact it may have risen a little as I was writing this very review!

I suspect that this new one will have the same fate as Visions, in that the few best songs will go onto my 'Icy Chanteuse' playlist and I'll never listen to the album again.

Although I have to say that I really do like Scream, Flesh Blood, Kill V Main, and Reality, and I will probably end up liking one or two from back end of it.

Post by: walk,on,by on November 08, 2015, 09:56:24 pm

listened to

grimes - art angels ( no )

death grips - no love deep web ( these guys are original and brilliant but shitty other times. still tight and fun to listen to, but I always feel like I can have a seizure or schizophrenic episode doing so. the cover, confounds me. )

toro y moi - anything in return ( so I never have listened to them so I gave them a chance and im getting this whole vibe or some thing of another era with this band, like I am 30 years younger and all members have thick bushy hair and beards and wear aviator like sunglasses while doing large amounts of cocaine. )

I gave ( wavves v ) another listen, and I have determined that it is good and still holds essence and I recommend it to anybody who goes gives loving to the last two wavves albums first.

baio - the names ( so very good, and I was expecting something not like this from some vampire weekend spinoff. dancy, catchy, dreamy, poppy, Depeche Modey. you can bop and focus your inside observational eye at the same time. )

new coldplay song. ( people say it is about chris having sex with the hunger games girl, which I guess is fine, because the song is great and has a nice feel to it for a coldplay song and comes out fresh and alive for them. hopefully the new album will be a return to what the band can do as one of the more powerful rock acts performing. )

kurt vile - spotify sessions live. ( uhmm, hell yeah. kurt's guitar sounds great in an open air setting and his voice live is unreal. so much better on stage than in studio, somehow, and how is that even possible. the new John Jim Wayne Morrison. )

the mad scientist ones are awesome.. awesome covers and titles..am bummed I have never seen sly and Robbie live.. I have had my chances too...

I love Sly & Robbie. They are truly epic. Responsible for hundreds of thousands of recordings. I have seen them twice. Once back in the late eighties at a reggae-fest at the Boathouse in Norfolk. A second time at the 930 when they backed up Sinead O'Connor for her foray into reggae.

There are no other artists that have been as important to their genre as Sly & Robbie are to reggae. They are the alpha, the beta, and the omega. True story.

for sure... I would also put in a word for the great carlton and aston barrett duo..a ton of those great dub and Jamaican records before Sly and Robbie hit the scene have them on them... carlton's work with the one drop beat is also bigtime...but yeah sly and Robbie are epic.

Never met Carlton, but way back in the day I met Aston Barrett. I had this friend Steve. Steve worked with this super hot Ethiopian chick who was dating one of the guys in AAE (Awareness Art Ensemble). AAE was opening for the Wailers at George Mason. The hot Ethiopian chick got us backstage along with a friend of a friend of a friend who was selling the Wailers a bunch of pot. We're all sitting around backstage and Aston twists up a big fattie, lights it, and hands it to me. I take a big hit at try to pass it back to him. Family Man looks me straight in the eye, shakes his head, and says to me, "No mon... that jus' for you."

As far as celebrity encounters go, I rank that right up there with the time Gwyneth Paltrow tried to get in my pants.

agreed, there are a few live rock recording that I really enjoy
now, jazz (or bluegrass) ...that's a different thing, there are soo many good recordings that are far superior to the recorded versions
(most likely blues too, just don't know blues that well)

That VU one is kinda 'for fans only' (although a great document)
recorded on a on a portable cassette recorder in the audience ...tape hiss and an audience often drowning out the quieter bits of music.

I am finally finishing listening to Deerhunter's catalog (all LPs, EP's, Fluorescent Grey / Oh, It's Such a Shame - Single, and Living Bridge song After Class) in Chronological order, in preparation for tonight, my first time seeing them live.
(http://45.media.tumblr.com/b05a78a40d35f4b0702244ee74066bc9/tumblr_mkpa1yyVeC1qala6eo7_500.gif)
Notes:
Turn It Up, F@ggot! - Somehow I had never heard this before. I enjoyed it. I will definitely need to listen to it more times but my first impression was that it was a pretty solid debut.

Cryptograms - I do not know why I always thought this was their first album... Weird. I love this album and it is why I originally became a fan. Too bad they do not seem to play tracks off of it live at the moment.

Fluorescent Grey - I always loved this EP. The titular track is one of my favorites.

Microcastle - I still love this one. I probably can sing along to more songs on this than any of the other albums. I am glad they still play a few of these live.

Weird Era Cont. - I love this one. I know it is a bit different than other releases, and I think that is why I really love it.

Rainwater Cassette Exchange - Solid EP. This also marks the end of my fandom. I did not see them live before this time, and after 2009 I was not that impressed with their output and that leads me to...

Halcyon Digest - I enjoyed it more than I remembered, but still think it is not as great as their earlier run.

Monomania - Some flashes of brilliance, some not so much. Probably my least favorite release.

Fading Frontier - Today I listened to it for the second time. I think it is my favorite since their 2007-2009 era. I am glad they are playing a chunk of them tonight.

Final thoughts: Great band on record. Diverse releases. Not afraid to change but still keep some elements throughout. I hope tonight for a great show.

Swans - White Light from the Mouth of Infinity (2015 Remaster)
did michael gira sign it?
he signs the stuff when you buy direct from young god records.

I already own a Swans shirt from a tour, and a Gira signed poster from another... So no, I did not buy the expensive remasters vinyl... I found the digital files for way cheaper at:

new coldplay album. its good, but not earth shattering. if they go out, they go out on top. I don't agree with the halftime show, but good for them for having the chance to say they did it.

flaming lips heady nugz. im enjoying this trip back in time with the scattering of live songs. I would listen to anything they did really, even the miley stuff, even the yoko ono stuff, yeah, even that stuff.

Amanda Lepore I . . . Amanda Lepore. She is classic eleganza. prime diva bitch singing the floor down darling.

trey anastasio tab at the tab. so, fucking, good. from the first song to the last, which I am not really a fan of zeppelin covers, but who cares. great live show.

I did not listen to that one but I would have enjoyed it!
I think it has aged well...
Don't you love it how LPs used to come with those posters?

I like She Shot me Down too.. one of my favorite album covers..I remember they had a copy hanging on the wall of Buccadibeppo in Dupont.. I think the restaurant is long gone

another Sinatra album I love that doesn't get much credit is the second one with Jobim... the first side is leftovers from the Jobim session and the second side has some cool covers like Leaving on a jet plane...I have a white label promo of it that I have listened to a lot.. I think its called Jobim and Company

There's this band, they're called, The Beatles. You should, check them out.

im listening to what spotify has to offer, after the HUGE press release of them. My favorite has always been the white album followed by sgt. pepper. the end on the bealtes. john's solo work was the only thing that mattered from the lot of them, after the break. ok, maybe stuff by George, too.

Paul is the most talented Beatle by far. George is second.

One of my friends wrote to me yesterday and asked if I'd been listening to it over the weekend. He said that he was glad to have the weekend to hear it while he was still alive, because the album is so alive. It's so strange to have listened to it all weekend, and to be excited he was still making music, especially music that sounded like this, and then to have it all come down on Monday. It's a different album now.

I did! It was a great interview and pretty cool performance. I will certainly get Post Pop Depression when it drops. It was cool to see Troy Van Leeuwen and Dean Fertita in the group too.

I've been listening to mainly all my old Motorhead and Bowie records. I had to dig them out. Its really bittersweet to hear them again. I just got done listening to "Bomber" from Motorhead I have a WLP reissue on Profile.

I have also been blasting "Black Star" and Baroness's "Purple" in my car non-stop.

Jesu is definitely the stronger of the contributors for me... Maybe it grows on me. I listened to some random tracks and need to listen to the album in order.

The Sun Kil Moon stuff is too stream of consciousness - too literal - almost talking - not singing...

Brothers of the Sonic CLoth is a good listen. I wish the production was a little better though. I saw them in Richmond over the summer and Tad Doyle is just as awesome as ever.

Those two 90's albums from Paw are great. Got the cassettes of both and still go back to them.

i forgot about this - bowie's reality show was at gmu on a sunday evening and i was walking down 18th to my car and a clearly hungover ryan adams walks past. i think he had a multi-night sold out run at the 9:30. I shouted out to him and we chatted for a bit and then he asked me if i was going to his show and i
told him that no, i had bowie tickets. he gave me kind of a "harrumpgh" and our conversation was apparently over.

good story! I think that "harrumpgh" was probably a respectful recognition that he'd probably rather be at the Bowie show too..

yes.. one of my bigger regrets in concert-going.. not having attended that show.. I was just recently back in the country and thought David Bowie would tour forever..... sigh.. even though I saw him twice in the 90s those shows are a faded memory... and both had issues...

I do have the DVD too... somewhere around here...I'm not a huge DVD fan but i'll pop it in sometime this year ....I think what I remember about the DVD is that it was done during the time that it was all the rage to cut between cameras every 1/2 second which can drive me crazy..

Led Zeppelin - Dazed and Confused - (Live 1969)
someone shared this awesome live recording and video (https://youtu.be/IC6SwzXvyzw) at some small club in London

also never knew it was an uncredited cover and Holmes waited 40 years to file a lawsuit?!

The Led Zeppelin version was not credited to Jake Holmes. Page used the title, penned a new set of lyrics, and modified the melody. The song's arrangement, however, remained markedly similar to the version performed by the Yardbirds the previous year. Holmes' publisher Universal Music declined to get involved. In June 2010 Holmes filed a lawsuit in United States District Court, alleging copyright infringement and naming Page as a co-defendant. The 2012 live album Celebration Day attributes the song to "Page; inspired by Jake Holmes", although the writer's credit with ASCAP remains unchanged.

I been listening to the new Lucinda Williams double cd since Friday.. its about 85 minutes long and might have two-three songs that qualify as medium tempo rockers.. the rest is really slow. narcoleptic.. different kind of music but produces an effect like mazzy star..... the songs go on forever.. two great guitarists (frisell and leisz) on almost every track creating some nice atmospherics.. a good Springsteen cover..a Woody Guthrie poem she set to her own music....I guess the album kind of reminds me of Nebraska too

ANyways, surprisingly I'm kind of digging it..I usually dislike the slow stuff.... its an album that is going to take a lot of listens though to reveal itself..because at first listen its like one long slow song..

MY copy from Newbury Comics is signed on the insert.. does it make it sound better? no, but since I been listening to her pretty much since about 1993-4..its nice..

definitely.. the amazing thing is that the record sounds perfect... I have a Portuguese issue where the cover looks much better but the cover is kind of flimsy and I never play it..

SIRE switched the catalog number when they got a new distribution label with Warner. .and they corrected the typos on the label "Beat Is On the Brat" became "Beat On the Brat" and they switched Blitzkreig Bop to Blitzkrieg Bop... debatable how many of the original are out there.. it did not sell that well when it came out so probably less than 10,000..

can't tell you how much Robert smith I listened to when my first real girlfriend broke my heart
helped me

any suggestions on what to hear next by them?

I always loved their self titled album, but basically anything up to TNT is pretty, pretty good... kind of lost track after that.

Agree. But I also really love Standards. That show at the 930 in 2001 will always be one of my favorites.

I'm about 10-12 pounds above what I'd like to be, and probably a few more than that above what *you'd* like me to be, but in no danger of being obsese.

Good news is that you inherit most of your genes from your mom's side

I think in my case it's probably more behavioral than genetic.
All women that i can think of from both sides lived long lives.
In my grandfather's case, it was probably the alcoholism and maybe smoking and for my dad the smoking.

You have to understand, I started calling myself "middle aged" in my early 30s. It's more a humor thing than anything else. I'm betting some of the people who drive you bonkers are just amusing themselves.

Though the fact is, I ran 17 marathons by the time I was 46, but haven't done any more since. And don't know if I physically can any more. I do feel myself slowing the fuck down physically in the last few years, whereas I felt hardly any older at 45 than i did at 25. I feel like I've physically aged more between 45 and 49 than I did between 18 and 45.

absolutely not true.. nothing can help you live long like bile, hate and lunacy...don't believe the hype about how happy people live longer and all that bullshit..

My grandmother lived to be 100 after wrecking every life she possibly could.. she went insane of course so the only person still talking to her had to pay for her to be taken care of...her son, my dad, is very near 77 and looks to be following in her footsteps.. I'm the only one of his three children that talks to him and looks like I'll be following in his footsteps.. of course, if i'm honest he's not doing too badly .. lives in Miami Beach's Faena District overlooking the beach...but god its got to be lonely....still the lunacy and derangement can take you far in life...

I didnt even know this LP existed.. its sort of an odds and sods compilation of leftover/b-sides whatevers and you send me.... its got liner notes by sammy davis.. released in 1965 i guess its the first posthumous cash-in collection..produced by al schmitt and hugo luigi (didn't he just die last month?).. al shmitt is sort of a legend recording guy.. for exampe did bob dylan's recent "crooner sinatra" album...which is pretty amazing..since 50 years ago he was recording sam cooke.. but when you got the quality people like bob will seek you out.. anyways , the record is a bit on the schmaltzy side as rca was trying to sell his music to white people i guess.. but sam cooke could sing the phone book and it would be worth listening to for me... i bought a bunch of records at a store today and the guy threw it in for free cause he thought it might not be very playable but it sounds fine...interesting store.. i had not been in years. .its called the vienna music exchange....

In honor of what would have been Kurt's 49th birthday I listened to In Utero this morning. I did not cry.

On a related note I listened to "You Know You're Right" the other day. In the second chorus as he starts screaming the line "I have never been so swell..." he sounds genuinely pissed off, not just a rock n roll scream. It's kind of weird considering what was soon to come.

on second listen, a bit of a grower.
also picked up their 'machineries of joy' - more immediate.
never will tire of discovering bands with deep catalogs to explore.

Benny Boeldt - 8 of Cups
This is some Weirdo electronic music from the artist formerly known as Adventure, now going by Benny Boeldt. It is also proving to be nice getting ready to go to bed music.

Interesting paragraph about the making of this album:
http://store.carparkrecords.com/products/561336-cak110-benny-boeldt-8-of-cups

Quote

The foundation of this strange, gorgeous, other-worldly record is made of VHS tapes. Boeldt began 8 of Cups by culling through tapes of anime, horror, sci-fi, even instructional videos, and collecting hundreds of samples; then arranging them on a digital sampler. Songs like the stuttering ?Have A Pizza? and ?Valley Amnesia,? with its lovely piano, got their start here. Boeldt began composing via MIDI and altering the samples through various hardware filters, effects, amps, and microphones in his Baltimore studio. With Baltimore artist Sydney Spann?s (aka Sunatirene) contribution to "Phone Call,? the process was almost like the lost-in-translation game of the same name. Using a small part of Spann?s vocal take, Boeldt pitched each sound into a new note, making her voice almost unrecognizable. For Boeldt, the process of making 8 of Cups felt similar to drawing or creating a collage. Working toward an amorphous image in his mind, the result is something unexpected but welcome.

moody blues - live at the bbc 1967-1970
these bbc discs are always an enjoyable listen.

watched "vinyl" episodes 1 & 2 last night (free hbo wknd) - you have to suspend disbelief at times, but for music fanatics, it was pretty cool. there was a mention of "the king biscuit flower hour" which i used to tape surreptitiously on my panasonic cassette recorder, next to my radio.
"peter grant" was smaller than i would have imagined, but he did throw a good tantrum.

Monster Magnet are indeed rockin' I been listening to 25 Tab this week. So good! I wish they would play some shows around here. They cancelled the last 2 or 3. They are approaching Killing Joke level show cancellations. The one time saw them live was great but it was at the awful Recher Theatre. I think their bass player got arrested at the show the next night because he bashed someone in the crowd with his bass and fucked 'em up.

I'm considering it... It's been probably five years since I've seen him, didn't love his last album and we'll see how this album goes. Ever since he teamed up with Zoey D, I kind of stopped digging his old timey sound.

As for Bathtub Republic... I might go, but probably will wait to possibly see her at 930 Club after I have had a bit of time to listen to the album (or another area show in the future, I am thinking about taking to some of my booker/promoter friends to book her in Baltimore).

Between this and Lissie... Good year for singer-songwriters...

erykah badu, but you cant use my phone (really good and I never even listened to her. she got me to like the hotline bling.)

beach fossils, first album. I was told to listen to it, and have only tried a song or two.

santigold, 99 cents. very very good, for her. almost every song, good. bopping in your car and you don't care who is looking, good.

king gizzard and the lizard wizard - paper mache dream balloon. just listen to it. yes. double, yes.

all these weird 2 or 3 songs things from radiohead, too many to name, I found on Spotify, such as bloom, tkol rmx8, give up on the ghost, little by little . . . .

making fun of people's parenting or children is not funny dude..... moreover, i spend more time with my kids who both have special needs than probably any other parent on this board does with their kids so I am not sure what you're talking about...

its just lame dude... there's a difference between having a little fun with ace frehley and attacking my parenting or my kids... and even if i was poor I'm not sure what that would prove? but my kids dont' want for anything ....but its pointless to argue with you..

yes the punky reggae party is interesting.. i think they added it to the exodus 2 disc issue but i think there is still a lee perry mix missing from that... but memory fails...there are 3 or 4 original mixes of that.. i think two by lee perry... also interesting that the original punky reggae party mentioned the slits but when bob marley found out they were women he changed it..total mysogynist!

lately i like jamaican pressings but for a while i was very turned off.. they are cheap/quality control is not there.. but sometimes the BASS is way amped up and they sound different from what was put out in england.. .i been listening a ton to sreaming target by big youth.. the gussie version...not sure if the trojan version futzed it up...

then again i am "originalist" when it comes to vinyl.. i really like having the original.. no matter what..

i have a few marley jamaicans but boy do they look messed up...so much marley music was so overplayed and there is so much other great jamaican music its criminal to keep listening to him... his bass/drum team (the barrett brothers) are so awesome and can be found on literally 10s of thousands of albums...meeting aston barrett a few years ago was such a thrill for me....

rita marley don't get me started on her.. nice of her to release her husband's music on the rita marley music label! WTF

The only record I haven't heard by the coral is their 6th the butterfly house. Their 7th was actually recorded around the time of the fourth and just recently released. Also, check out the drummers solo record Ian Skelly "Cut From A star" which is some fine psychedelic tunes. His other album recorded as Serpent Power is ok. The James Smelly solo album is also a great listen. It's got a bit of a northern soul, etc feel to it.

I'll never forget seeing the Coral at the club a decade (?) ago, touring their first record. Their version of Simon Diamond that night was just unbelievable. I loved their first album, loved their show, and then felt like I'd gotten all I was gonna get from them. I should revisit some of the records I missed.

Might have to hit up his show.

Even my daughter was requesting him the other day. "Daddy, play some M. Wart."

I'm considering it... It's been probably five years since I've seen him, didn't love his last album and we'll see how this album goes. Ever since he teamed up with Zoey D, I kind of stopped digging his old timey sound.

Ditto. Like this one better than the last but still prefer everything from Post-War on back.

Seems like a good date night show.

after one listen, I won't be attending...

after additional listenings, leaning towards attending... I approve. I shouldn't pass judgment on albums when I'm sitting listening through computer speakers at my desk.

That new Ray Lamontagne album though couldn't be more boring... my god.

My conclusion was it's ok...but I just prefer the older stuff, which is much more acoustic and mellow. I prefer him being an old timey troubadour to being whatever you'd say he is on this album (more of a mainstream rocker?). Leaning toward not wanting to go to the show... and my wife may be ready to retire from sold out standing club shows anyway, so no date night it seems. Guess I'll have to find someone else to be my date for Old 97's/Hearless Bastards.

I agreed...listened to Ray Lamontagne and it was...well "boring" may be the single best fitting word.

That's actually the first Dr. Dog album redone... I suggest you go back and revisit their catalog.

Thanks for the Santigold rec, my daughter and I were having a raging little dance party to it last night. There are a few complete throwaways on there, but overall, pretty fun album!

Oh my god, I'm so happy to see this, all of this. Just printed out that long-ass Buzzfeed article for my afternoon men's room session, and I'm delighted to hear a new album is coming, though their recorded material is not why I love them. But a new album means new tours, so that's great news. And hopefully it means they'll play a little longer. Their shows are typically 45-50 minutes long, including encores, and while I strongly prefer less over more, I would like them to play a wee bit longer.

Lennon - Rock and Roll

an often neglected album.. I love it...two Chuck Berry covers- driving home the importance of Berry to Lennon and the Beatles- and a soul tearing cover of Lloyd Price's Just Because.. Cooke's Bring it On Home is also wonderful (down to the Lou Rawls-ish backing vocals)....Of course the best known song on this is his version of Ben E King's Stand by Me which got a second life as part of the movie by the same name... this is one covers album that works..

oh..and the title says it all.. this is what Rock and Roll meant to John...

reissue of Yo La Tengo's Fakebook LP... I wanted this one on vinyl for a long long time.. maybe best cover album I have heard...since the same label reissued it as did the original issue I have some faith that some basic quality control (master tapes, etc.) may have been observed.. does sound pretty good.. what an eclectic collection of quality songs: kinks, cale, nrbq.. so many of my favorite bands..

one failing in my chromebook is the camera which only points towards person typing

This one rules. The two before it? I could not finish either...

Edit: It is funny how tastes change. I first heard this album when I was 12 or 13, and hated it. I wanted to like it because of the theme, but just could not do it, it wasnt heavy enough. I am definitely digging it now.

after one summer vacation a friend of mine who up til that point had the classic college taste (REM/U2 obsesso) came back really into Descendents/ALL... pretty weird cause he really wasn't into punk at all... anyways its good stuff.. years later I got to see them at the 930 which was cool.. I think two of the guys are now with FLAG too...

the first LP.. when Columbia rolled out the Long Play format the first two releases where a 10" "pop" LP of a 1946 Sinatra "album" - some say the first "album" as opposed to mere collection of singles- which had been issued on a 4 disc 78 RPM album.. this is why albums are called albums.. they used to have multiple 78s in them and looked/ opened like a photo album.. anyways Columbia in June 1948 announced the LP with two "albums". this Sinatra 10" and a classical music 12"

10" LPs in my experience are usually beat to shit and don't sound all that great.. I've sort of stopped buying them but I couldn't resist this historical artifact for 50 cents...it looks to be in great condition but as has been my experience it has some pops/noise even if it looks clean...I'm a big Sinatra fan- huge- but his Columbia stuff leaves me cold.. it usually sounds like he's singing all stuffed up or something and the arrangements by Axel Stordah who I know Frank loved just don't do it for me.. .. I'm guessing microphone and recording technology was the problem.. in contrast his 1950s Capitol stuff sounds wonderful and I can't get enough of it...its rather amusing how his 1940s Columbia stuff sounds "old" and his 1950s Capitol stuff sounds "new". (Nelson Riddle/Billy May arrangements are the best.. Gordon Jenkins doesn't do all that much for me)..

well just finished playing it.. the second side sounds really good.. the first side has more noise/pops even though it looks clean.. overall a nice find for my collection...

another good one from Shirley Scott..not as good as Superstition though.. although her vocal on Elton John's Your Song is great (had never heard her sing) as is Mystical Lady.. .the Proud Mary cover is a bit of a grower..still unsure of it..

Starting the day off with some RuPaul!
Butch Queen
very clubby and dancey. I like it, it is a change for the ruuster. category is,
What?

Most RuPaul music is clubby and dancey. Since at least 1994...

I have to speak, now that I have listened to it quite a few times. this record, butch queen (YASSS queen, I must also say) is really a departure from her normal offerings of powerful songs to a well produced studio dance beat. strong messages abounded before and yes it was clubby to a point, but for some reason this new one stands out. so much references to the paris is burning era of drag and it is a gradual move toward an edm side of music, which so many people still think is the future, blended with house 90 club realness. even my partner, who wears out him some rupaul, hunty, said it was a step back departure for her but still a fucking killer album. I think slightly better than the last one and has a not so much stylized produced product on your face feel, veering toward being sub drag . . . so like more kim chi, than raven.

Such an amazing album. I wish it were longer, but its brevity actually makes it perfect because you're left wanting more rather than getting burned out on it.

Great Post!

I should clarify my statement. I stick by with what I said; Rupaul has always made Club music.

BUT. I left off this statement, CLUB MUSIC/DANCE MUSIC CHANGES.

The new album does in fact reflect a more modern dance sound, but so has every single one before.

I have heard trance sounding RuPaul Songs... Hell she even has a song with a GoGo beat.

I've been listening to a lot of Primal Scream lately. Forgot how much I love them. Basically it's been a mix of the new album and their early to mid 90's stuff. As for the new album, I enjoy it a lot. I think it's great that they collaborated with Sky Ferriera and Haim. I've also been listening again to the recent Grimes album. It's such a fun, weird pop album with some serious bangers. If I could dance in my car, I would ha.

I plan on going record shopping soon and I'm hoping to pick up the new Iggy Pop. I'm sure by next week, I'll be listening to that and a shit ton of David Bowie.

Oh really?! I'm a huge Depeche nerd. The Behind the Wheel EP is great. I was into Pink Floyd when I was 10, but by age 13, I was all about DM. There's something fun and sexy about their brand of self destruction. Gotta give it up to Dave Gahan and Martin Gore. Haven't been on a huge Depeche kick recently; but a few months ago, I was listening to a mix of Black Celebration and Songs of Faith & Devotion. I'm hoping to attend the Depeche dance party next month at the Black Cat.

yes, dp, like pf, was one of those bands to me, at a certain period in my life, which controlled me and forced me to only listen to it for a while. I think it has to do with the fact that humans can plug their emotional needs into the outlets of music. of course, violator was the key.

I can absolutely relate. Violator is one brilliant album. I don't feel like there's a single wasted track. And the programming and arrangements Alan Wilder did was what made it so different. Plus, you got Flood's incredible production work.

Very nice! It's funny to me how folks say particular music was "gay" when nobody in Depeche was gay. Ditto with New Order. Not many synth pop bands were aside from one member in Erasure and Pet Shop Boys. Anyhow, it delights me to hear that you were all about this sort of stuff, Hutch. I'm totally with you on that time machine thing. I'd give anything to have seen DM at the Rose Bowl, but I'd also give anything to have seen them on the World Violation tour with Nitzer Ebb as the opening act. I still debate over whether I'd want to have seen DM during the craziness that was the Devotional and Exoctica tours. Dave Gahan strung out on smack not exactly my idea of fun. I will say that I've not missed a tour since first seeing them in 2001 at Merriweather. Sure the new albums usually only have a few songs I enjoy, but there is something always fantastic about seeing them live. It's thrilling when they pullout songs they haven't done in years/decades. I might be a younger fan, but I'm critical about them. I've yet to be disappointed with a live show.

I decided to run through the KNFDM catalog. I already finished Opium and just started What Do You Know, Deutschland?. I think I have only heard three or four of their albums before today, mostly 90s ones...

KMFDM - Don't Blow Your Top (Remastered version)

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: hutch on April 11, 2016, 01:25:03 pm

one of my all time favorite records.. certainly in my top 100.. finally acquired an original copy from 1969... this record was recorded while Caetano and Gil were jailed by the military.. Rogerio Duprat and his crew overdubbed everything on the raw vocals by Veloso and guitar tracks by Gil (how he recorded them I have no idea.. they are killer fuzzed out..)... truly a wondrous album.. I used to have a copy of the Brazil 80s LP reissue... but was taken from me when I left a lot of records in storage in Buenos Aires and many of the gems dissapeared mysteriously.. in any case.. I finally acquired the original mono pressing and I'm tickled pink/pleased as punch...

So far I have really enjoyed them and will be at the 930 Club show! My parents were not cool enough (and possibly a few years older than your parents) to listen to stuff like Echo & the Bunnymen.

Quote from: killsaly on April 06, 2016, 01:42:17 pm
Oh man!!! I grew up on Echo and the Bunnymen! My dad was obsessed with their psychedelic tendencies, but I went nuts for their post-punk early days as a teenager. I have this memory of being 17, lying in bed late at night and listening to Heaven Up Here and Porcupine!!! And this was back in 2002. Ocean Rain is a fucking masterpiece. Enjoy discovering those amazing albums.

Hold up - they're coming to the club? When?!

And if my dad was still alive, he'd be 64 years old. My mom is 63. I seem to have parents older than most of my friends who are around my age (late 20's/early 30's...I'm 30 going on 31) Anyhow, I figure I have pretty cool parents or at least my dad was super cool. (True story - he got me into Sonic Youth when I was 10, but to my mom's credit, she got me into Aretha Franklin and INXS by the age of 8. And both of them got me into Stevie Ray Vaughan, the Pretenders, and the B-52's while I was still in elementary school)

Okay as for what I've been listening to lately - still on that primal scream kick, but a friend reminded me that I should listen to Elliott Smith. He made a post on Facebook about getting XO on vinyl and I lamented about how I remember listening to various songs off of that during the 8th grade when it was first released. (While my peers were listening to Brittney Spears, I was all about real music ha.) Anyhow, I said something to my friend about how it's been ages since I've listened to a full Elliott Smith album. I pretty much stopped listening to any of his songs after he died, because that shit was just so upsetting. These days if a song comes on Sirius XMU, I'll listen and even sing along. But my friend made a great point "So it's been at least 12 years since you've listened to XO or Figure 8?! You need to remind yourself the brilliance of it. There's no better way of keeping someone alive than playing their music!" So last night, I added a few tracks from Either/Or and XO to a playlist and listened. It was strangely refreshing!

First track is pretty slick with the Dap Kings...

"It?s a total triumph of an album, and it?s also an absolutely singular force. Nobody else could?ve made this album, and nobody else is even trying to make anything like it. Simpson already had the voice, and now he?s doing some great things with it."

I've listened to the album at least 20 times and it's much better listened to all the way through to truly understand the concept. I love that NPR did not list the tracks individually and only has it as one straight through 39 minute track.

I am eagerly waiting for the FLAC version.

In Bloom actually sounds awesome....especially since I wasn't even expecting it

I was originally checking this out because I thought it was THE Winstons, aka the Amen Break band... but it is not. This band is a new prog/psychedelic band from Italy, who I suppose do not know how to google to see if their name was original. Or maybe it doesn't matter if the bands are separated by oceans and decades. Anyway, this sounds like something my dad would love. (I like it too). The organs and vocals and production is what I am digging...

(https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a3881405676_16.jpg)

Kind of 70s hard rock, new wave of British heavy metal...

Edit; with medieval themed lyrics... This might be the best album of 2016.

Look at these dudes...

I wish my Big Muff Pi worked right now... One of the connections went bad. I bought a new connector but never fixed it; even though I have a soldering iron, I do not really know how to use it.. I used to use it as my main fuzz but it was replaced by a Dwevi Ever Rocket and a DBA Fuzz War (I also have a Devi Ever Shoegazer but left it off my pedal board cause 3 fuzzes seemed excessive).

I am now also listening to Super Fuzz Big Muff (2008 2 disc deluxe version)...

I am finally getting around to listening to the final, postmortem release by Baltimore psych rockers, Sri Aurobindo, that came out about a week ago. I always enjoyed seeing them live... RIP.

Friends Records release statement:

Quote

We have a surprise for everyone today. Even though the band hasn't been a band since Mid-2014, they did manage to record one last record before disolving. Today, we here at Friends Records bring you the final piece to the Sri Aurobindo puzzle. I have been listening to it for over a year now and it is by far my favorite thing that they ever did. It is the culmination of everything learned and studied over the course of their time as a functioning musical unit. Recorded by Christopher Freeland at Beat Babies Recording Studio and mastered by his brother Mickey Freeland, the album finally captures the freedom that the band found in their live performances. Heady, meandering interludes give ways to songs full of blasting energy.

For those unaware of the band, Sri Aurobindo started in Baltimore sometime around 2007. I worked with Brandon Carlo Arinoldo and Mike Romano at The Sound Garden. Mike had just left VINCENT BLACK SHADOW and started playing with Brandon, Michael Furniere and Daniel Chenault. They started playing alot of shows around Baltimore and building a name for themselves. They self released their first records, the self titled "Sri Aurobindo" and its follow up "Return To Earth". It was right around this point that Brett Yale and I started planning Friends Records. We knew that Sri had just finished recording what would become "Cave Painting" and we made plans to release it. "Cave Painting" came out on vinyl (FR002) in July of 2010.

If you didn't catch one of their breathtaking live shows during this time, I am truly sorry. You missed out on something so creatively authentic and what it truly means to pay tribute to a sound or style without ripping it off. Most people through the word psychedelic around pretty nonchalantly. I take it very serious. So did Sri Aurobindo.

Today we are releasing this new and final Sri Aurobindo record entitled "Psychic Process" on cassette w/ download code (FRCS090) through our Bandcamp and digitally around the world. You can find the record free to listen to below as well as on all of your favorite digital streaming sources, iTunes, Amazon.com, Spotify, etc.

Please get in the right head space and then hit play below
smile emoticon
It's a bit of a bummer that the band doesn't exist anymore but at least they left us with this incredible puzzle to put together for years to come. Thanks so much Brandon, Danny, Mike and Mike. You guys made a huge impact on me and you left your mark on this town. It is a real pleasure to be able to present this to the world today and I appreciate you allowing me to.

Finally got my copy of Green River's "1984 Demos" and I'm loving it. Half of it is more punk leaning, the others clearly leaning toward the Mudhoney sound. Stone Gossard wasn't involved at this point so the more metal/Mother Love Bone sound isn't as present as on Dry as a Bone or Rehab Doll

Aesop is one of the best wordsmiths in hip-hop. Its never too late to get into him. Have you heard the "None Shall Pass" album yet? Its amazing. Even his early stuff like Music For Earthworms is great. I do need to hear The Impossible Kid, I have been sleeping on that one haha. He's coming to 9:30 this year as well.

yeah,the documentary is great, if you haven't seen the Mudhoney "I'm Now" doc, check that out. between the two it gives a great overview of the whole Seattle/Sub Pop thing. In fact, until I watched the doc, I had no idea this version of the album cover had been recalled for legal reasons.

I think Tad (and this album) is a favorite because he was my first intro to something other than hardcore punk. A friend gave me a copy of this and Bleach in early '91 and it took a while for it to sink in, but after seeing both Nirvana and Tad live it changed everything. Plus they're they underdog, the underrated, and the left-behind of the Seattle bands.

Haha good one. I have that album. Its pretty good even though amg said it was the worst album of all time. I once came across a cragislist ad that said they had a test pressing of a long lost second Atilla album that never came out. I think they wanted a lot of money for it so I didn't grab it but the ad was gone after like a day. I wonder what that one sounded like? It must have been made right when Billy was sleeping with the drummer's wife and caused the duo to split.

The Fall- 50,000 Fall Fans Can't be Wrong Disc 1

boy I wish Marc E. Smith would come stateside...I don't care how drunk he is or if he performs in a wheelchair...

The Classical is such a banging track.. and you can just hear how much Pavement took from it...then Hip Priest is so much like Brink off the clouds... its funny all those years ago when I was so into Pavement I never knew much about the Fall other than Victoria....

Listened to this on the way to work:

finally got the six sided monster..wanted it for years.... interestingly the LP issue has a different mix than the CD issue at least to my ears....more bass...presumably the LP is mixed like JB intended (test pressings were made in 71 but the album was not released)... this is James Brown with the original JBs including Bootsy and his brother Catfish...

We now know that most stars in our galaxy have exoplanets. And we now know that most of those solar systems have exoplanets in the habitable zones. Telescopes that have already been built and will be launched within the decade will be able to determine the atmospheric composition of those exoplanets, as well as directly (optically) imaging those planets.

Gravity seems to be the most overlooked factor in these searches for "habitable" planets. We humans are lifeforms that evolved in an environment with a particular factor of gravity. In an environment with everything else at typical Earth levels, even a small difference in gravity would have a profound effect on Earth lifeforms.

They typically look for planets in the range of 0.5 to 2.0 times the mass of the earth, with gravity being an exponential factor...

Stone Roses - Second Coming

I think this record gets better and better with age..

Although I don't like the new song, I think 'Second Coming' is unfairly maligned. The problem when it came out was it couldn't match expectations because the debut was such an instant classic and because it had been 5 or 6 years between releases. Also, it was a significant departure in sound, with Squire beefing his guitar WAY up. On its own, it's a very good mid-90s Britpop album with some great songs and a few clunkers.

Meanwhile, in my opinion, the debut is an all-time classic that easily sits in my Top 5.

have never listened to it.. this was virtually Prince's album but credited to the Time.. he did all the music...and you can hear him on backing vocals too...searing guitar solo on Get Up tears the roof off...... apparently he wanted to put out more music and this came out right at the same time as Controversy and before 1999....1981....

I really like "Cool".. its a 10 minute jam and Lisa does some backing vocals...

This is the debut album from the Quebecois black metal band. Gevurah. Seven songs; 2 are around 10 minutes long and 1 is 20 minutes long...

Their name translates to:

Quote

Gevurah or geburah (גבורה) is the fifth sephirah in the kabbalistic tree of life, and it is the second of the emotive attributes of the sephirot. It sits below Binah, across from Chesed, and above Hod. Gevurah is 'the essence of judgment (DIN) and limitation, and corresponds to awe and the element of fire,'

I don't tend to go for jazz anymore but I couldn't resist this session from 1961, for $1, cause its quite a lineup: Blakey, Shorter, Merritt, Lee Morgan and Bobby Timmons plus Curtis Fuller...original impulse orange/black label...

I'm not sure why Blue Note allowed him to record this session for Impulse while he was still with them..

Glad I saw Wayne Shorter and Curtis Fuller on separate ocassions..

ian hunter - all american alien boy
did not really enjoy this album at the time, his new york album, missed ronson.
but the songs are stellar, so dylanesque. apologies to hutch for the dylan grief earlier this week.
that jaco solo on the title track is unimpeachable. as are the solos by sanborn and gary weems. what a session that must have been.
that jaco doc is a must-see.

teresa stratas - stratas sings weill
gerard schwarz, y chamber symphony
recording really captures that decadent berlin vibe - closely mic'ed and intimate sounding.
stratas left the business to care for orphans in romania.
also made a notable recording of "lulu" by berg, not loutallica.
schwarz was an amazing trumpet soloist who one day decided that there was not anything that he could not play on the trumpet, so quit and turned to conducting and conducted the seattle symphony from 1985 - 2011.
his albums of herbert l. clarke cornet solos (on nonesuch) are legend.

so I am listening to Jill Jones.. its a Prince album all but in name only...

I was pretty good about not pressing the panic button when Prince died and buying a ton of stuff for sky high prices.. but I did buy this record for $10 on the internet (which was cheap compared to what other people were paying.. upwards of $50 for a record nobody wanted when it came out!)

of course today I found it at the record store for $1....it does have some surface wear..some gunk on cover.. not sure what it is.. .

Jill Jones will always be known or not known as most people don't know i guess for the line from 1999 which she sings:

"Got a lion in my pocket, and baby he's ready to roar"

I have to say living 5 minute drive from the CD Cellar new store which combines the Arlington/Falls Church is a blessing and a curse.. they have so much stuff I always end up walking out with an armload of records or cds...its going to bankrupt me...they get a ton of stuff in and they price it - in my eyes- really competitively...

i'll admit it . . . the new, red hot chili peppers album is good. when they do it right, it works and sounds timeless.

I guess I like the new radiohead, and it is so different, in sound, in a good way. arty in other ways.

I discovered that phish has a lot of live material on Spotify, such as the gem of 06/27/2010, Merriweather.

also, a Spotify playlist, yes I listen to Spotify a lot, called j mascis guests, filled with songs he guest appears on. such as ciccone youth, gumball, the lemonheads, sweet apple, t. moore, etc.

pink floyd - ummagumma reissue sides 3 & 4
it wasn't until until midway through side 3 that i realized that i had been listening to it at 45 rpm, as i had been listening to "hail to the theif" which was probably kind of a blessing due to the length and self- indulgence (of both albums).
maybe that particular radiohead album would have sounded better (and ended earlier) at 78 rpm.

Dave Brubeck Quartet featuring Paul Desmond- Jazz at the Blackhawk

original red vinyl pressing..

I have a soft spot for 1950s era Brubeck....it was great seeing him at the Lincoln Theatre in 2005... of course when I think of Brubeck I also think of Paul Desmond.. they are sort of inseparable for me....Desmond even wrote Take Five (Interesting that on his death in 1977 from lung cancer he willed proceeds from that song to the Red Cross... nice chunk of change...)

anyways this copy is pretty beat but for $1 i'm happy with it... i would never pay more for a brubeck record as they are a dime a dozen...

new neil young - earth
for a guy that's all about sound quality, this is pretty just ok soundwise (maybe I need a pono to get the full effect, but that's not gonna happen.)
tacked on choral background vocals, but the ambient wildlife and city sounds are pretty vivid (and jarring). not for the car.
willie's kid's band plays well enough, a decent crazy horse approximation.
30 minute "love and only love", a wifey favorite.
goofy concept, but "innaresting", as neil would say.
will pass on the vinyl, who knows what that will cost...no non-pono download probably.
i really enjoyed 'le noise' a few years back - great songs, concept and recording.

Um Chagga Lagga - new Pixies single

album out in September, I think you can pre-order it now.

it's ok.. I mean it's Charles, it sounds like him. If you like the Pixies, I think you'd dig it, if you're hyper-critical because they replaced Kim forgetaboutit

Bun E. Carlos - Greetings from Bunezuela!

Only a couple tricks in on this one, and the guitars are loud and nasty as they should be, drumming is tigha as alwaus. has lots of guest vocals from the likes of Robert Pollard,Robert Pollard, Dave Pirner of Soul Asylum, early Cheap Trick vocalist Randall "Xeno" Hogan, and Alejandro Escovedo. Even the Hanson version of the Paul Revere and the Raiders track "Him or Me" is pretty bad ass..

Bun E. Carlos - Greetings from Bunezuela!

Bob pollard mentioned this from stage and I was like....'did he just name drop the drummer from cheap trick?"

and I had no idea this was going on
In 2013, Carlos filed a lawsuit against his former Cheap Trick bandmates, claiming that even though they claim that he is still a band member, he is not being allowed to participate in band-related activities, including recording a new album. The remaining three members of Cheap Trick filed a countersuit, seeking an official affirmation of their removal of Carlos. Their lawsuit was thrown out by a Delaware judge in late 2013. [7]

On February 26, 2015, Robin Zander announced that the lawsuit was over. ?We?ve settled our differences,? Zander continued. ?Bun E.?s a member of the band, but he?s not touring and he?s not recording. ? We?ve had our differences, but we?re all settled up now and hopefully we can forget about that era. These decisions that Cheap Trick makes, Bun E. is part of.?

not being allowed to participate in band-related activities...but he's in the band
WTF?

why did I listen to these. because.

paula Abdul - just the song, vibeology. listen to it once, and it will be stuck there. the, horror,

perpetual groove - echoes from the cave. I used to really love them, so I dusted off this.

tacocat - lost time. ok, inter,esting, and nice addition to the women control of rock. I also like when, there is one guy in a band of crazy girls.

animal collective - gnip gnop two song thing. second song better than the named song of the release. always how it works, first song, ok, if you are seven. they still deliver, to me.

does anyone have an opinion on the new strokes release of songs.

Pure Disgust - S/T LP

https://puredisgustdc.bandcamp.com/album/pure-disgust
(https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a3140481487_16.jpg)
Are these guys the best band championing the DCHC sound right now? Maybe.

sample lyrics:

Quote

Bear the arms
Spit fire and death
You blindly receive commands
Unknowing of who will benefit

Potential criminal
Mindlessly following orders
Potential criminal
Spread the terror

Follow your orders
Bring grief and desolation
Not understanding who or what you're fighting for

No politics
No ideals
Just a mindless drone
Waiting to spread terror
On the innocent of the land

Potential Criminal

I was at a gathering on Saturday.. we were listening to some really horrible band-oh yeah- the Revivalists...I said something about how I'd been listening to a lot of dub... the person - not host but somebody who DJ'd through his phone_ played Bob Marley's Survival....

When 99% of people think of anything relating to Jamaican music they just think of Bob Marley which is pretty sad.. Anyways, I like Survival OK but its just about Bob Marley at his most crossover reggae light....

Cal Tjader's Latin Concert
on red vinyl like a lot of these old Fantasy records....

Tjader is one of my favorites... this was recorded in September 1958.. the band is an allstar Latin jazz unit with Tjader, Guaraldi, Bobo and Santamaria!!! (plus McKibbon on bass).. but those four are all stars..

Fantasy was an interesting label for a while

anyways so September 1958 which I tend to view as the height of jazz.. at least the kind of jazz I like...

L7 - Bricks are Heavy

I have been listening to all the albums for a while, getting ready. worst album by them, in your opinion?

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: killsaly on August 09, 2016, 06:31:24 pm

Bricks are Heavy and Hungry for Stink are my two favorites.

L7 is probably my least favorite album by them. I do appreciate the punk vibes, but I really think they hit their stride in the grungier albums. I also have not listened to their last two that much so I do not have a strong opinion on either...

I outgrew/got bored with Billy Joel decades ago and now find him to be a disinctively unpleasand and downright creepy person..He was one of the first popular musicians I listened to a lot as a youngster....regardless,. this album really is gold and says NYC/Philly/NJ 1970s popular culture like few others...really incredible stuff...Billy's core band supplemented by the usual roster of session musicians/pros (CTI, etc.)... this is the peak of Billy Joel....the first side is one of the great LP Side One's....

What prompted me to listen to this after many many years was that I noticed it has the rare Robert Ludwig RL on the deadwax... its not the first mastering (although came out same year of release) but is pretty hard to find and I've noticed so many of the great records sound best when Robert Ludwig had a role.. think Zeppelin's Brown Bomber, AC/DC Back in Black, etc etc.. I forget the story of why this mastering was done...I'll have to go back to the Steve Hoffman site to research it... you see this record in the dollar bins all the time.. but almost every time it is not the RL master...

70s band "Detective".. I'd never heard about them til last week.. anyways if you like Led Zeppelin circa Physical Graffiti era like Trampled Underfoot this is for you.. This is Michael Des Barres' project after Silverhead....Apparently Jimmy Page sat in during recording and either produced half of the album or had some input depending on who you talk to.. came out on Led Zeppelin's label Swan Song...

Its kind of like a more Rod Stewart-ish lead singer fronting Led Zeppelin in the studio in 1975....

added: the drummer sounds so much like Bonham its uncanny...

one of my favorite musicians is Jorge Ben.. this is his first album- the US release of it two years after it was released in Brazil in 1963- and although it has a wobble/warp it plays great (if somewhat ugly on the first song the classic Mais que nada)... pretty excited to find it for $1.. not the kind of record you find for $1 these days...Now if I could just find Tabua!... this type of find is what qualifies as a GREAT FIND in my book and will have me going for a while...

blasting it right now...

Shanachie has put out some nice reggae boxes.. The Yabby You one and this one.. not sure if there are more...

Reggae tends to be so mistreated by labels.. hodge podege poorly executed releases.. unless you're Bob Marley of course..

great review below.. love analogy to a Borges story.... it really is unsettling to hear the original King Tubby Meets the Rockers Uptown after listening to the dub version 5000 times!

Lalo Schifrin- The Dissection and reconstruction of music from the past as performed the inmates of Lalo Shifrin's demented ensemble as a tribute to the memory of the Marquis de Sade

probably longest titled album in my collection!.. I guess this is called "baroque jazz".. not really my bag but always wanted to listen to it.... I must confess I have the CD but have not bothered to listen to it but now that I got the record I am..... Argentina has contributed a few great musicians to the world.. Lalo, Argerich, Piazzolla...I've never been a huge Lalo fan but he's done some interesting stuff like working with Dizzy Gillespie on many albums (writing music for him/overseeing his band), coming up the Mission Impossible theme (probably his signature song) and doing a ton of famous soundtracks for big movies in the 1970s...

Just noticed Richard Davis plays bass on this... those that really like Astral Weeks will know who I'm talking about..

Two CD collection from the 60s pop hitmakers. All the Singles collects the A and B sides of every original 1965-1970 Turtles 45, with the tracks presented in the same mono or stereo mixes that were heard on the original singles. All the Singles also features several tracks that were prepared for singles release but not issued at the time. Meticulously researched and prepared from the original master tapes by renowned engineer Bill Inglot, and contains detailed liner notes by noted writer and archivist Andrew Sandoval. The resulting package offer a unique insight into one of rock's most misunderstood bands.

^ok not THAT many singles then... at least half are b-sides.. with extra tracks you're probably talking less than 15 singles.... I like the Turtles.. have a few LPs and LP compilations..

Sam Cooke never gets old... thi is the original RCA LPM-2625 monaural labels pressing... sounds heavenly as Sam often does... I probably have a copy or two downstairs but this is a nice copy (LP wise) so I bought it again for $1....the cover has some issues...

I have to put in an extra special plug for Cooke's Bring it on home to me.. the backing vocals by Lou Rawls are outstanding on top of Cooke's of course.... YAAH! YAAH! this is a song that always gives me goosebumps.. I wonder if its King Curtis on sax.. almost surely... could it be Earl Palmer on drums? Can't say I know but wouldn't surprise me.. some serious talent on this...to create a few minutes of transcendence...

oh gosh.. Rod Stewart between 1968-1973 was unbeatable... came out with like TEN incredible albums.. two with jeff beck group, 4-5 solo, and 4 with Faces... unstopabble

what happened next is another story.. but his vocals when he started- very Sam Cooke BTW (its all related in the end)- were phenomenal..unimpeachable...

Lucinda Williams- Car Wheels on a Gravel Road

first time listening to the LP release of one of my all time favorite albums- even if i got burnt out on it-which came out about 2-3 years ago. like 15 years after the CD!...I think its punchier/bassier less trebley than the CD.. better...

unfortunately the cover got mangled in transit.. when will Amazon sellers learn how to ship records. throwing them in a box with bug bubble wrap is not the way!

also they should have made it heavy gatefold. .it is an album deserving of deluxe treatment... I do hear stuff on the record that I did not hear on the CD

better party album.. gets a better rating for that...i guess i would give this one five stars and ooh la la 4.5....long player probably 4.. the box set is the best though and gets five stars..

I've been listening a ton to "King Tubby's Prophesy of Dub" which is a Yabby You album as I understand it but these Jamaican releases its hard to figure anything out about them....

It is fabulous dub music... probably my favorite reissue I came across this year.. its pretty hard to find .. reissued on Blood and Fire.... some dub leaves me cold and is boring but this one is a killer...

Found one of my record collecting "white whales"!.. its probably not worth much more than I paid but for years I've been pulling out the records of Tony Bennett's "I left my heart in San Francisco" hoping for a six eye label..hundreds of them... finally today lo and behold found one! could not believe it... the six eye label- as you can see a thing of ravishing beauty- graced Columbia LPs from about 1955 to early 1962 but for some reason some LPs had very limited six eye labels for a while during the second half of 62.. including this one.. anyways, finally found it.. its of course the label associated with other wonderful records like Bob Dylan's debut (which sold less than 5000 copies!).. or Miles Davis' Kind of Blue, or Ellington and Mingus classics.. and a ton of other killer records.. Johnny Cash's first major label record..etc..anyways, it looked like it might have some issues but plays beautifully....

anyways enjoying some Tony Bennett tonight.. he turned 90 recently..

great jam session organized and put out by Norman Granz, one of the heroes of jazz...

everybody plays on this motherfucker....but of course Charlie Parker kind of rules....

I love these David Stone Martin covers..I wouldn't say I collect them but when I see them I like to snap them up..

found this one for $1.... and its in great shape.. amazing..I had to dig pretty hard for it though...so who is on this?

bird, oscar peterson, hodges, ben webster, benny carter, flip phillips, kessell, ray brown, charlie shavers and jc heard ... geez louise talk about a lineup...

this was a gift .. .literally.. the record store put it out front in a freebie pile cause I guess they thought it was too banged up...I cannot believe they did that.. just look at the cover!... what can I say? people are crazy.... .it has some issues but not bad at all... original Impulse mono orange black label....

anyways, what is there to say about this album.. I guess the best way to characterize it would be that at a time I did not like jazz at all I purchased it on cd- I still remember, at the Tysons Corner Tower about 22 years ago- put it in my nice car stereo and was blown away....some records transcend their genres and this is one of them...I have a few original copies.. I'm partial to the mono which is always the case with Rudy Van Gelder for me... and I know some people make technical arguments why I am wrong.. people who understand mixing/engineering/sound far better than I do but it is what it is...

one of the nicer gatefold covers I have ever seen...and looks like I managed to take a decent picture...which was not easy.. Bay Area latin rock band Malo's third album Evolution.. Jorge yes JORGE Santana on guitar.... on Warner BS 2702.. One thing I noticed a long time ago about Warner is that they have really good sounding recordings....so Warner became one of those record labels I snap anything up.. this was purchased at Joe's Record Paradise new location...

Jimmie Rodgers - Train Whistle Blues RCA LP

one of the seminal figures in American music.. probably largely unknown today..

Bob Dylan started a record label about 15 years ago and his first project was a tribute to Jimmie Rodgers cd.... I guess if people know anything about him it would be that he was the singing yodeler or the blue yodeler... Its a pretty clear line between Jimmie and Hank Williams (at least to me).. I wouldn't put many people on his level in terms of influence back in the 1930s....Robert Johnson for sure..

I have a butcher cover. The original owner was a family member who bought it when it came out with the "clean" picture pasted on top.

Sometime in the 80s, they did a shitty job of peeling it off. We had it framed with the cover and the vinyl side by side, and it is safely tucked away somewhere.

I really love the whole 1966 tour. That point in Dylan's career was just such a pinnacle for me. It was going to see Bruce that almost convinced me to buy the giant 18 disc Dylan set. I figured... for only $400 more I could have had the Dylan outtakes, and it put it in a lot of perspective.

saving it for friday, the performances in the the film were a little rough, but i guess that was the idea.
my lp arrived with a mangled cover and sleeve, so they shipped a new empty one today.
should've just bought local (again).

I tried to buy local at two different stores- at CD cellar I tried 3-4 times which is crazy for me.. I never bother but really wanted to listen to this- and they didn't have it either at CD Cellar or SOM (DC)....

so i bought from amazon..and they had it to me in 36 hours....

now having listened to it.. it is certainly an interesting album.. warren ellis' fingerprints are all over it.... its very gloomy and dark.. soundscapes with nick cave singing/speaking/blathering (take your pick) on religion and lust?

that is my quick take having listened to it once while taking the kids around

will require many listenings to see if the album has some magic or is just boring tripe.... because its nick cave who has the best track record of any single musician over the past 25 years it will get some spins... i really loved the last one....

The last one took me a little while to get into, but I ended up liking it a good bit. I don't think I really loved it until I saw the songs live.

This one for me doesn't have the same movement in it.

Bob Dylan - Bootleg Series v 12. 18 discs of Classic outtakes... just picking songs at random right now

I came really close to buying it a couple of times, but held off. Borrowing it now from a friend, and easing my way into it. SOO many goodies.

yeah.. I've listened to a ton of bootlegs from that period..its sick.. I can't imagine 18 discs though...I wish I could have felt comfortable buying it..

I did buy Genuine Live 1966 20+ years ago and listened to those 8 discs through a couple of times. Ultimately though I rarely, if ever, play them now. That's why I held off on buying the 18 discs (aside from being wiser with my money these days). I will listen to most of it once... and only once. But I'm going to really enjoy it while I do.

yah many years ago i used to go to second coming records in NYC and pick up dylan boots by the armload... $20.98 apiece as I recall.. but they were my lifeline for a few years.. I was pretty obsessed...I love the acoustic sets from 66...

I really love the whole 1966 tour. That point in Dylan's career was just such a pinnacle for me. It was going to see Bruce that almost convinced me to buy the giant 18 disc Dylan set. I figured... for only $400 more I could have had the Dylan outtakes, and it put it in a lot of perspective.

wow speak of the devil.. i just preordered it on Amazon.. i usually resist these sets but couldn't do it this time... i think for $150 its a great deal actually..

Bob Dylan: The 1966 Live Recordings?a highly-collectible 36CD box set containing every known recording from the artist?s groundbreaking 1966 concert tours of the US, UK, Europe and Australia?will be released on Friday, November 11 by Columbia Records and Legacy Recordings, the catalog division of Sony Music Entertainment. The 1966 Live Recordings commemorates, in stunning sonic vérité, the 50th anniversary of the electrifying live performances that would forever change the sound and direction of rock and pop music around the world.

I've heard many of them... they're all different...the differences in performance are pretty big...particularly on the acoustic sets which are my favorites...

but 36 cds for $150 bucks.. the entire tour?

bargain of the century....shockingly cheap...I had to buy it right away.

Vintage Trouble. They were featured on Austin City Limits with the Alabama Shakes.
If you missed the episode, I recommend that you check them out. Unfortunately they are not touring at this time and by my research efforts, they have not played DC. (that needs to change).

They have definitely played DC...I want to say at least three times... once at Howard.. at least twice at the Hamilton.. I think Kosmo is a fan

they also played the Landmark Festival in 2015

so by my count they have played DC at least four times the past few years... wouldn't it be surprised if there was one more...

also opeend for the Who at Verizon in 2012.. .so they have played DC at least FIVE times the past few years...

AC/DC Dirty Deed Done Dirt Cheap (1976 German issue..sounds gorgeous. why are German pressings always so good for rock?)

How Atlantic rejected this record for American release in 1976 is beyond me... they did release it after Back in Black hit...five years later.. unreal....I read somewhere that Bon Scott almost got fired when US Atlantic said they would not release it.... unreal....

Everything that is good in the rock and roll I live for is on this record (of course they repeated the trick on their next four albums! five if you count if you want blood.. .six if you count Live At Atlantic Studios)

my pre de-sensitivity training self would have taken strong issue with your statement about my photographic skills but my new self shakes it off..

I have only listened to it one time... I think if you took this record and Freeman, jumbled them together and had Gener sing 3 of the songs on the Deaner Album, well.. you'd have a great record....

There's some great stuff on the record... song 2 I love (Exercise Man)....the first track really does sound like Dickie Betts.. its like a weird reworking of In Memory of Elizabeth Reed....very nice...Deaner's voice is absolutely horrible on some songs though.... there's 2-3 instrumentals that sound like inferior A Tear for Eddies.. at least to me.. but maybe they will grow on me... there's one track that sounds like a Prince funk workout...which I like.... there's some smokin' guitarwork all over it.... one song is kinda funny but kind of horrible...

I got it for $8.99 so I think its a nice deal.. there are a lot of familiar names. .pretty much everyone ever linked to Deaner or even Ween is on it....except Gener.... like I said I can't help but think some of these songs with Gener singing would have been great....CLaude is on a track, Dreiwitz, Glenn...all on it... produced or engineered mixed by Chris Shaw who did White Pepper except one track by Andrew Weiss who did all the earlier ones...

too bad the last Dean Ween band drew so few people at the 930 since it means they will probably never come back.. I'd go see them now, having listened to the album...

oh mike hampton is on it (of parliament-funkadelic) and one of the songs says its co-written with shider.. i wonder if its gary shider of parliament-funkadelic?

I don't like Josh Ritter at all..but I used to be interested in the album.. despite my misgivings about crapdog for some reason I was interested in it.. i heard a great Weir interview on NPR... worth looking for the podcast.. I want to say it was that fresh air program.. anyways hearing weir telling the story about finding his biological father was pretty cool...

josh ritter is so boring...saw him at the club one time..bo-ring...boring boring

You can thank him though for making the Weir album listenable.

The five-piece girl group from Cardiff--produced by Super Furry ace Cian Ciaran--offer a dizzyingly beautiful brand of heaven-inscribed pop soul.

this is so good! great slow sexy jams with beautiful vocal melodies. perfect for late nights at home staring out the window, wandering empty loveless streets, or smoothing along on a love connection with your partner. I have like 6 of these songs stuck in my head and I'm always singing it.

give it a shot, it could be that outta-nowhere album that comes to dominate your life for a few fleeting weeks

Jackie McLean- Tippin' the Scales

1962 Blue Note session that was only released in 1979...

the reason I picked this up- and I'm surprised I had not acquired it yet- is cause Sonny Clark is on it on piano..actually his second to last recording session before he died a few months later..

Sonny Clark is my favorite jazz piano player..they say about him "He never played a bad session" and that has been my experience..He recorded a ton of great Blue Note stuff both as leader and sideman.. he probably died of a heroin overdose... what a shame..

Interestingly DC native Butch Warren also plays on this..as he did with Sonny Clark on one of my favorite Jazz records ever recorded only a month prior: Dexter Gordon's Go (and also on Dex's Swingin' Affair)..

It will always amaze me how these guys could record so much great jazz so quickly. entire legendary albums in one afternoon... then another one two days later....

Santana- Welcome

had never heard this one before.. its like a jazz album more than a rock album... quite interesting...came out in 1973....very jazz fusion-y... I tend to hate jazz fusion but at least its something different and for $1 I can live with it..I sort of considermy Santana collection complete at this point...but occasionally if the price is right I add something to it... the Santana 1968 live record probably remains my favorite.. he really shreds on that one..I simply have no interest in adding Amigos, Festival or Inner Secrets..

I have to say Santana IV which came out earlier this year was a bit disappointing for me...

I been listening to a lot of Queen lately... they really were absolutely amazing.. all four could write great songs! all four were great players and songwriters....and the harmonies and vocal arrangements...

I think if you asked me what was the greatest band and defined greatest band in a certain way.. I'd say Queen..

Freddie Mercury's death still affects me big time even today...listening to "The Show Must Go On" i got so many goosebumps yesterday...its such a powerful performance and knowing he knew he has but months to live and was so sick when he sang it... geeze...he really belts it too.. what a bravura performance....

When Queen came to town without Freddie I wanted to be there but in the end I just couldn't...maybe if Deacon had been there too... but it just felt wrong....

the last album, Innuendo, they went out on such a high note......I loved the album from the minute it came out. it was such a return to form after the lame The Miracle... it really was their first ALBUM that worked so well in over a decade because A Kind of Magic suffers from having so many songs that were for the Highlander soundtrack...

Freddie died November 1991... I remember just being floored.. there was so much talk about how he "hid" things.. I always thought it was 100% his business what he did.....

Wayne's World came out in early 1992.. kind of a shame Freddie didn't live to see it...

there are some individuals that even if you don't know them you value so much..Freddie is one of them for me...

I was glad last year Google paid some sort of tribute to him with that doodle.... I guess in about a week will be the 25th anniversary of his death.. November 24th.. 25 years...

After listening to John Deacon and Roger Taylor playing the chord sequence that later on would be the basis for almost the entire song, Brian May sat down with Freddie Mercury and the two of them decided the theme of the song and wrote some lyrics. May wrote down the rest of the words as well as the melody, and added a bridge with a chord sequence inspired by Pachelbel's Canon.

Demo versions featured May singing, having to sing some parts in falsetto because they were too high. When Brian May presented the final demo to Mercury, he had doubts that Mercury would be physically capable of singing the song's highly demanding vocal line, due to the extent of his illness at the time. To May's surprise, when the time came to record the vocals, Mercury consumed a measure of vodka and said "I'll fucking do it, darling!" then proceeded to perform the vocal line.[2]

For the record, May sang most of the backing vocals (including the very last line) and played Korg M1 synthesiser as well as guitar. Producer David Richards suggested the key-shift in the second verse.

? "'The Show Must Go On' came from Roger and John playing the sequence, and I started to put things down. At the beginning, it was just this chord sequence, but I had this strange feeling that it could be somehow important, and I got very impassioned and went and beavered away at it. I sat down with Freddie, and we decided what the theme should be and wrote the first verse. It's a long story, that song, but I always felt it would be important because we were dealing with things that were hard to talk about at the time, but in the world of music, you could do it."[4] ?
? Brian May ? 1994
The lyrics are full of allusions, metaphors and other figures of speech, making it somewhat difficult to understand. Thinly disguised tragedy ahead is announced. In the end, the text refers to the determination, the furious desire to live ("I have to find the will to carry on with the show") in spite of vanishing strength ("inside my heart is breaking").[5] From the perspective of harmony, the song begins in B minor; then there is a modulation to C# Minor as if the song implied a hope (an increase of tone); but eventually it falls back to B minor.[6]

Jim Hutton, Freddie's partner who was with him for the last 6 years until his death, mentions the lyric that refers to the use of make up[7] during his last days:

? To me, the most autobiographical line was: 'My make-up may be flaking but my smile still stays on.' That was true. No matter how ill Freddie felt, he never grumbled to anyone or sought sympathy of any kind. It was his battle, no one else's, and he always wore a brave face against the ever-increasing odds against him.[8]

My favorite music critic on it:

AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Renaissance is an album that never should have been released. Appearing a year after the Can't Stop the Music debacle and after the collapse of Casablanca Records, Renaissance finds the Village People trying to find a foothold in a world that no longer likes disco. They now lack their top-notch producers and songwriters, so they have to settle for dreck like "Diet," "Fireman," "Jungle City," "Big Mac" and "Food Fight." It's music so lifeless and flat that it lacks kitsch value, even with years of hindsight. It's simply an embarrassment that never should have seen the light of day.

yeah.. they tried to redefine themselves...I'm not hearing the dramatic difference.. I mean yeah its not YMCA...it sounds like early 80s/new wavey to me... just not very good at it..

I don't think I need to go any further...I'm not sure I need In the Street from 1983 or Sex over the phone from 1985...

i think you'll be ok...
i would be concerned for you if you had an unquenchable need to hear or even own those later records.
once played a bat mitzvah as the pre and post show band for those guys.
the total bill for that shindig was in the $100,000 range i heard - at least we ate well that night.

many (missed) opportunities to see him, most regrettably at yoshi's in sf, due to blues alley vibe and attitude.

the cover of Lonnie Smith's Afro-desia is badass...

I like the music allright cause I like Lonnie and soul jazz is one of my things...George Benson (uncredited) , Ron Carter are on this..

But the music ain't as great as the cover.. how could it be?

I listened to this one about an hour ago....I'm listening to jazz tonight.. night in..

Time Out is a great album.. I think Brubeck gets a bad rap.. and Desmond who is a wonderful alto player seems to just get ignored.. he of course wrote Take Five which became Brubeck's signature tune....I once went to a music appreciation class and the instructor started out by playing this song...

The original LP copies do not say "Featuring Take Five"....they added that in later when it became huge...

Its a great record though...I was heartened to see that on Rate Your Music its about the top 200th rated album.. not bad..

cool artwork I think by Fujita who did some other cool ones for Columbia including Mingus ah um

I saw Brubeck once.. about ten years ago at the Lincoln.. very cool.. of course he did perform Take Five...

I'm not a huge Oscar Peterson fan but this recording has some sentimental value..for some reason its one I don't tend to see around..Maybe it didn't sell much?

Its amazing how many records the guy cut.. like Ella he was managed by Norman Granz who put out hundreds of sessions by him....I think Granz held him in higher stead than most critics and listeners...I don't think his music has aged particularly well.. I don't know much about music but his piano playing just seems very straightforward.. its sorta the anti-Monk... Personally it doesn't do very much for me.. I can't think of dozens of jazz piano players I appreciate more but its Oscar that cut hundreds of records.... Norman just loved him

On this record though its slightly cool to hear him play the piano to the tune of Sinatra's singing on those landmark Capitol recordings...

Now on this set is a jazz piano player I can get into and do: Bobby TImmons.. very funky.. one of the earliest of soul jazz players before there even was such a thing..wrote some great songs which Art Blakey made famous like Moanin'...

Of course unlike the by the numbers Oscar Peterson he did not get recorded much as a leader.. got in trouble and died young...sigh..

I think but can't prove that Timmons influenced guys like Bobby Byrd... the whole house music scene which sort of came out of Byrd's piano on that one Brown song.. I think it goes back to Timmons..but its just speculation..

I love Julian Adderley...very soulful jazz player not at all "out there" or free jazzy which is something I don't get much into...Adderley is the perfect foil for Coltrane on Davis' Kind of Blue.. they are both necessary even if Coltrane's solos are the ones studied by musicians... Adderley has a warmth to his playing that I really enjoy....

If Oscar is very conventional.. to my ears its missing the improvisational aspect of jazz.... Monk is his opposite...I don't see many Monk, or Mingus for that matter, records around...

Butch Warren also plays bass on this....

This is Aretha's first album for Columbia Records.. she recorded a lot of records for Columbia but did not attain success til she switched to Atlantic....her records tended to be jazzier than they would be for Atlantic but she already sounds like ARETHA... Its amazing how much these early records get panned or ignored....Anyways, she was barely 18 when this one was recorded!... John Hammond signed her.. the next year he signed Bob Dylan...

Columbia's six eye label is a thing of beauty.....I'm glad I have a decent copy of this one. .

I've given the new Metallica three straight-thru listens, trying to get it, and I've given up. The first and last songs are great, but literally every song between does nothing for me. Mid-tempo slogs with James Hetfield singing like he really means it and his this incredible wisdom he must impart to us. Thing is, the more he tries to "sing", the less I'm interested.

Liked Death Magnetic much more than this.

Dire Straits' dark horse... still ignored and unfairly maligned....I think its great....artists spend their whole lives coming up with Record #1 and just as soon as it makes a dent the record company wants to fly you to Nassau to come up with "the follow up"....they often say the second record is the toughest one....the "hype sticker" with its false "Lady Writer" hit sticker tells the story.. no hits here... nothing like Sultans of Swing which had broken the band (How could it not?)...still.. there is a solidity to this record.. its not flashy but if you give it a chance its all here.. it may not scale the heights of the first one.. or Making Movies.. but its a consistently rewarding record.. thank goodness record companies back then gave bands some space to grow and develop...

fascinating post.. no really..

If I ever hear another REM song I will want to blow my brains out.. they are definitely a band I do not get at all...i mean i was into them for a bit.. but any band that can write the song "stand" you have to be like WTF? I would take the much maligned we built this city over that turd...

My roomate in college for 2 years.. his favorite bands were U2 and REM.. he played them all the fuckin' time.. then the summer after his junior year he discovered All/Descendents

I thank the lord for that...

I got the original stereo pressing of A Charlie Brown Christmas and I agree its some of the absolute best Christmas music there is. Too bad my record has a weird factory defect on the first track on each side, grrr.

Dexter Gordon's second LP for Blue Note: Dexter Calling

original mono pressing on Blue Note from 1961.. Dexter is my favorite tenor and that is saying something as there have been so many great ones.... on this record he's joined by Miles' first Great Quintet rhythm section: Philly Joe Jones and Paul Chambers.....Kenny Drew who was capable of cutting great records (Undercurrent), however, is not my favorite.. I miss Sonny Clark on this.. Sonny would go on to play on Dexter's two next Blue Note sessions.. the landmark Go and its follow up A Swingin' Affair... its not Drew's fault however that he's not my favorite bop pianist!

what a great movie... in a wacked out European way

Always wanted to pick this up.. record gives no credit to musicians other than Herbie Hancock and the lone Yardbirds track (apparently the only song to feature both Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page.. used to great effect in movie BTW)... anyways from wikipedia it would seem like a real allstar cast of musicians.. unclear if Jimmy Smith really did play on this or not

oh and if you ever wanted to find the sample used by Dee-Lite for Groove is in the Heart..its here.. its Ron Carter on BASS!!!!!!! jammin'!

Personnel[edit]
Herbie Hancock: piano, melodica
Freddie Hubbard: trumpet
Joe Newman: trumpet
Phil Woods: alto sax
Joe Henderson: tenor sax
Jimmy Smith: organ
possibly Paul Griffin: organ
Jim Hall: guitar
Ron Carter: bass
Jack DeJohnette: drums

Post by: hutch on December 16, 2016, 03:43:06 pm

so this is why the musicians are not listed! from popsike I dug this info out from an auction for a Blow Up promo LP.. no I can't see the photo but I assume its the same musicians as listed on Wikipedia:

"SPECIAL DISC JOCKEY RECORD" / "NOT FOR SALE"
What makes this package interesting and one-of-a-kind is that it includes a typed letter from MGM producer Pete Spargo. Dated April 21, 1967 the letter is written to a disc jockey (Mr. Paul Anthony WRC-AM/FM / Washington, D.C.). The letter explains why the session musicians are not listed on the album. (They weren't under contract to MGM). It also lists the musicians; ten of the finest jazz players of the era- see photo

Their appearance in Blowup came after the Who declined and the In-Crowd were unable to attend the filming. The Velvet Underground were also considered for the part but were unable to acquire UK work permits.

I always thought Rick was the sole owner as well. But I was at the Organic Butcher of McLean (picking up some Polyface Farms double-cut Tamworth pork chops - highly recommended) and saw a dude in an "Orpheus Records" t-shirt with a McLean address. I asked if Orpheus had re-opened in McLean. He laughed and said that they had always been in McLean - sort of. I gathered that he was the co-owner, as he was clearly involved with the record store since it's Georgetown days. He is definitely the current owner and told me the store's inventory was in his garage, that he runs the occasional sale from there, and that I should feel free to call him if I wanted to come browse or buy.

If you make the trip, you should also stop by this place to see some drool-worthy new and vintage stereo equipment: http://dejavu-audio.com/index.html

I always thought Rick was the sole owner as well. But I was at the Organic Butcher of McLean (picking up some Polyface Farms double-cut Tamworth pork chops - highly recommended) and saw a dude in an "Orpheus Records" t-shirt with a McLean address. I asked if Orpheus had re-opened in McLean. He laughed and said that they had always been in McLean - sort of. I gathered that he was the co-owner, as he was clearly involved with the record store since it's Georgetown days. He is definitely the current owner and told me the store's inventory was in his garage, that he runs the occasional sale from there, and that I should feel free to call him if I wanted to come browse or buy.

If you make the trip, you should also stop by this place to see some drool-worthy new and vintage stereo equipment: http://dejavu-audio.com/index.html

interesting.. I don't think I ever saw the guy once....

from their facebook it seems a little high endy for me... talks about a rolling stones record worth 10K..stuff like that. .i'm not sure he wants me to browse his stuff looking for my usual dollar records!

a few years back i heard rick's health wasn't so good..its very bizzare its like there are two orpheus websites.. one has just a picture of rick and a guy that died.. the other has pianos and stuff like that but the story in the piano one matches the story of the orpheus i know (used to be in g-town, moved to clarendon, etc0

i'll take your word on the pork chops! :)

maybe he pulls those out and keeps them in his mansion...

for me Orpheus was Rick.. to go to some dude's house in McLean who sells pianos and talks about turning down $10,000 for a German 10" in VG condition is of little interest but its cool to know this info so thank you GGW

I mean this is the one of three posts the dude has on his Facebook..this is not Rick..that I can tell you:

Sometimes the rock?n?roll gods just smile upon you. This week we purchased a collection that featured a mint condition mono white label promo of the first Rolling Stones album from 1964 complete with an undamaged full color photo inside (books for $5,000!), a copy of Hot Rocks with 11-5-71 stamped in the dead wax on side four (means it has the alternate demo version of Wild Horses, books $1,000) and the rarest of all Rolling Stones items, a stone mint copy of Beat, Beat, Beat from Germany, their only ten inch record with the misspelling of Ian Stewart's name on the back cover (books for god knows what, probably something stratospheric, we turned down $10,000 for our VG copy of it not too long ago and this one is in perfect mint unplayed condition). Listening to these makes you realize that unlike the pale imitation of themselves that they portray now, there really was a time when these guys were the bad-asses of rock!

(Note I have a couple of the Hot Rocks with alternate versions which I purchased for under $10... Note 2: what an item "books" for isn't always what you get for it on the market)

James Brown- Night Train

actually the second version with the new title and cover.. but same..I think this music came out in 1961 so it was like James' third album or so...

amazing how much music the guy put out... I try to collect him but its never ending.. and even if you do get an album it might have a different name or cover! so you're never done...

now I'm listening to the "For the Heart" side of George Michael's Ladies and Gentleman 2 disc compilation

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: hutch on December 27, 2016, 12:10:18 pm

I'm rather jolted by George Michael's death I have to say....

He was such a phenomenal talent.... and as a young kid my sister and I when we were living in Japan in the early 80s really got into his music.... we used to watch this 30 minute MTV type program every day at 5 and they would play Careless Whisper, Last Christmas.. even Club Tropicana like every single day....He was my favorite at a young impressionable age...

then we moved to the US for a couple of years and High School and I think if I'd said I liked Wham! I would have gotten stoned to death or something... it was Van Halen, Scorpions and Rush for people in my High School... you had the "weirdos" you dressed in black and long coats who listened to Depeche Mode

Even today I know that George Michael is very much looked down on by hipsters but the guy could sing and he had some beautiful messages in the music...Praying for Time encapsulates all my problems with religion into a few stanzas... gives me goosebumps even thinking about it..

but I kept listening to George Michael pretty much for life... some amazing singing... who else could cover Queen, Elton John and Stevie Wonder (at least twice!) and pull it off? Some of his singing is about as gorgeous as singing in English gets... His version of "I can't make you love me" (originally relegated to a b-side that only big fans would pick up...).. makes Bonnie Raitt- and Bonnie can heckuva sing- sound like an American Idol contestant...

Do I feel bad I missed his concert at Verizon about 10 years ago? Probably not.. maybe so.. (Kudos to Seth and IMP for bringing him to DC...). I watched some video of it a friend filmed.. it sounded and looked great...watching it I did feel rather stupid for not going....I think it was the only time in my life he came to a place I was at.. which is rather shocking..but he didn't play a ton of live shows...he sort of devolved into a hermit with seemingly many troubles though he did not want us to think so and since I don't know its almost pointless to speculate... but he definitely stopped using his amazing talent...no original albums since 2004.. only TWO albums of original songs between 1991 and 2016 seems rather sad.....but maybe he was happy.. people owe others nothing.... his appearance on the original carpool karaoke is comforting.. to know he could make fun of himself...its a beautiful skit any Michael fan will appreciate.... Michael: "Can I come to Comic Relief" Corden: No Michael: Why? Corden: "Because you're a loser.. Comic relief is supposed to help people like you!".... I can't help though but get the sense he didn't realize how much pleasure he gave so many through his music... but maybe he did.. that is not necessarily enough.. people don't live just for others.. his lover dying of AIDS, his mother dying ... an apparent addiction to some drugs.... public bust ups... I hoped his near death experience about 5 years ago would jolt him.. I think part of ht reason I passed on Verizon is he was the guy I wanted to see at a place like the Warner...not necessarily because it was a smaller place.. just I wanted to hear him singing with the beautiful acoustics.. performing as an ARTIST which is what he was..

I'm sort of numbed by all these deaths combined with Trump's "victory"....and a few things on the personal front that even I can't go into..

I just remembered that I was dragged to a George Michael concert, Halloween 1991 at the Cap Centre. I don't remember much about the show (I can't find a setlist online), but I do remember him covering "Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me" in a bang-up sort of way. I believe there may have been a witch hat involved...

its an interesting album because there are a few killer tracks from Sun records (That's allright, Mystery Train) which made their first LP appearance on this.. and for the next 15 plus years this was the place to get them... when Elvis was in the Army RCA ran out of material so they put this together.. and if you like early Elvis this is pretty great...for some reason I had never even seen this one out.. I don't know if people played it to death or what... but its one I never see about...

yes I figured

when I was a kid I didn't listen to bands that had "come out in the last year or two" did you?

I caught on to bands, often, quite a few years after they had started.. it took them a few years to get going, grow a fanbase, develop their music..

I bet the first time I heard New Order was probably around 85 86 after they'd put out like 4 albums and of course Joy Division had already happened..much like most people.. many came across them in Pretty in Pink

I'm not sure that hearing a band the "first year" is that great.. what they have one album? Pitchfork writes a nice review, they sell a few records and next year everybody forgets them, two years later the follow up is felt to not meet expectations and then they have to wait around for the 10 year anniversary of the album people liked to tour behind that

I mean there's always a "new band" to listen to.. isn't it the point to find "new bands" you will love for 40 years? That their music will still speak to you in 40 years..

I am having trouble finding such bands

there are tons of bands that people talk about this week but won't remember next year.....

the role of music in our society has changed... so it is hard to really visualize any band starting out today being talked about in 40 years...

when I was a wee one music was our life...we defined ourselves in a way by the music we listened to

nowadays music is one of many things... and even with music there is way more of it out there available to everybody

the music I listened to and loved in the 80s and 90s is a part of my DNA by this point...as it was for many of my peers..

that is just no longer the case... most people in the past generation or two.... its just not like that for them...

I have a lot of trouble finding new bands that speak to me in that way... the last one was the Hellacopters and by the point I got turned on to them they had broken up! I don't think they ever played anywhere in DC bigger than the Black Cat.. sad

I was listening to New Order's Substance in the car today driving around on the Deathway and man its just so good...

I dont' think its that I'm closed off.. I just dont' think music hits people these days the way it did back then... its just a very different scene today but in general and in music...

local classic from 1973.... recorded at Track (Silver Spring)... these guys used to play a lot of gigs with the Soul Searchers (Chuck Brown) in the early 70s... but this was their only album..its pretty good....funky...some nice fuzz guitar. the original is hard to track down (found it only recently for $1!) but much like everything these days it was re-released on vinyl......its amazing how much stuff is being re-released on vinyl... even really obscure stuff that hardly sold back in the day...

Hell yeah
Seriously, I'm just waiting for some western artist to come in, adopt the whole KPOP schtick, and take it to the top. Grimes is kinda doing it, but she's such a contrary weirdo that I'm wondering if she'll just screw it up.

But I've been saying to anyone who will listen that KPOP is the New Modern Motown.

fascinating listening to Nothin Compares 2 U.... there was a great song there to be covered but Sinead got to it first... the changes she made to it along with getting rid of the sax solo really took the song up a few notches...

Luna- Romantica/Rendezvous

I happen to really like Luna's final two albums....they are criminally underrated...anyways I couldn't help ordering signed copies of their final LPs via pledgemusic but it really was a bit pointless as I already had a bunch of their stuff signed...just wanted to support them..

so I was reading in both Peter Hook and Bernard Sumner's autobiographies about how they came to NYC to record what turned out to be Confusion with Arthur Baker and they both talk about the act Arthur Baker was recording before them ....so of course when I saw it I had to get it....notice Jellybean of Madonna fame working under Arthur Baker...Bernard in particular seems pretty fond of the song so I thought I would check it out.... the production similarities between it and say Confusion or Shellshock are very noticeable...

its a strange bird.. many record stores don't realize its a prince record so i've found copies fairly cheap........its very much a prince record though.... the lead singer dude was obviously played prince singing the songs the way prince does cause he sounds like he is pretending to be prince....i also like hearing susan melvoin singing on it.. i think my favorite prince unofficial records are probably vanity 6, the first The Time record, and the jill jones (she sings a line on 1999)

the madhouse stuff is hard to find but its not that great..

Finally picked this up..the second 2LP volume of Ella sings the Duke Ellington Songbook (with Duke Ellington Orchestra)... I have a lot of Ella records but this one proved elusive... I've seen dozens of the other Ella Songbooks but this one rarely pops up.. I wonder if it sold less because the composer was Ellington as opposed to say Cole Porter, Rodgers and Hart, Arlen or whoever (all white)...or what the reason is.....Now I have to get the first volume...

been listening to a lot of Love and Rockets and related stuff the past few weeks.. amped up for the shows about to be announced for Daniel Ash and Kevin Haskins' new project Poptone.... Really hoping for some east coast dates.....If I could I'd jet to Los Angeles for the first gig 4-20 but there is just no way... A shame David J is not involved but that is the way the cookie crumbles and sometimes you have to take what you can get.. I have to be honest it is weird but even though David J wrote and sang way more of my favorite Love and Rockets stuff, and played some amazing bass, I consider myself a Daniel Ash guy...

this is a picture of the album I just listened to, the fourth one self titled with So Alive a radio promo signed by all.. on the back it has a backstage promoter pass that says June 23, 1989 which my research tells me was for a gig in Ft Lauderdale.. and the one I'm listening to right now the Canadian pressing of the first album (which includes Ball of Confusion)...

This album kind of stiffed.. 5 years after the self titled one with the hit "So Alive" they decided to go trip hop/Floyd /Orb and people couldn't deal.. I love it.. The 2 LP vinyl is very hard to find and I doubt it will ever be rereleased.. its a pretty ballsy release opening up with a 15 minute slow buildup track Body and Soul... great, as usual, bass from David J.... I guess the record may sound kind of dated now but I love it...

put out about 1000 tracks, but I never heard one that was worth a 'mix tape inclusion'

I feel about Springsteen much the way I feel about REM -- the first few albums were epic and then boom, the quality just dropped off a cliff. Greetings from Asbury Park is still one of my all-time favorite albums. The Wild..., Born to Run, Darkness are all great. The River was bloated and a little hokey in places, but still solid. Nebraska is fantastic. Then came Born in the USA. Blech.... Schmaltzy pop crap rather than the great, slightly bookish, blue-collar songwriting of his early work. I'm sure some of his later stuff is great at times, but he was just lost to me after Born in the USA.

Finally picked this up..the second 2LP volume of Ella sings the Duke Ellington Songbook (with Duke Ellington Orchestra)... I have a lot of Ella records but this one proved elusive... I've seen dozens of the other Ella Songbooks but this one rarely pops up.. I wonder if it sold less because the composer was Ellington as opposed to say Cole Porter, Rodgers and Hart, Arlen or whoever (all white)...or what the reason is.....Now I have to get the first volume...

ok found volume 1 . i guess 1 is with orchestra and vol 2 is with small groups but vol 1 has more of the classic ellington tracks and is 4 full sides of ella whereas 2 is 3 sides of ella and 1 of duke's orchestra.... including a to die for Take the A Train with some great scatting...

anyways now i finally have both volumes... found one month to the date i found volume 2.. and at the same place.. uncanny..

could it be signed? a quick almost unwilling signature in ballpoint? impossible to tell.. i think I see a J.. a Y... an S an m and then a line i need to get out of here as quick as I can..

unfortunately musicians had many different signatures over the years and depending on situation and desire to sign

a possibility would be this record belonged to "Franklin" and he got "Jimmy Smith" to sign it... if you were going to sign that would be the place to do it even though its right by Wes.

anyways always a fabulous listen.. and boy this record must have sold a ton cause i have quite a few copies...

REO Speedwagon debut album from 1971 recorded 1970 and probably early 1971 .. no Kevin Cronin on this one.....interesting..they started out as a generic blues rock midwest band...no sign of the power ballads that made their name... their most important contribution may have been their manager Irving Azoff who went on to greater fame as manager for the Eagles and then kept climbing the corporate music ladder until he got to the top...although I do not know all the particulars about Azoff.. maybe he started out managing Fogelberg? anyways by the last decade he was considered the most important person in the music industry.. I guess he had a lot to do with both Ticketmaster, Live Nation and their horrible merger...by all accounts - and one came to me first hand- he is a first class prick
anyways REO Speedwagon..
the album is pretty boring blues rock but it was their first... still .. some nice stinging guitar leads..at least it tries to rock out... always a plus! .but the furthest thing imaginable from the type of music they had such huge hits with in the late 70s / early 80s like Cant fight this feeling..

I also have their second album by which point Cronin had joined the band and they even did a CHuck Berry cover on it! All rock used to come from there..

I saw REO at the jack fest where they were easily the least interesting band to me on the bill.. they could not compete with the pretenders, zz top, straycats... but by that point rickrath who originally was their big songwriting talent was long gone (and its telling that when he left / was pushed out they never again had a hit!).. rickrath died a few years ago... i think alcoholism... cronin continues to take REO on the road...

by all accounts REO's first album sold ok in the midwest but that was about it...

The first set is a god damn smoke show... Second set slows down a bit too much, but I'm assuming the latter effects of a speedball played a part.

HOW can I not have If I Should Fall From Grace With God on vinyl.. HOW?

some of my favorite music....a shame they broke up again.. a couple of Pogues shows every few years is really needed in my life.....I think I saw them four times at the 930 Club... saw Shane once at the Black Cat....a long time ago...

Peace & Love was always my favorite Pogues album, and at one point in my life, it was in my all-time Top Ten. 'Misty Morning Albert Bridge' is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.

I'm going to check out that Taeyeon record for sure.

It's hard to know when these solo albums are going to be any good. For example, when I see a cover like the Brave Girls album in my above post, I'm pretty certain I'm going to like at least some of the songs on there. But the solo albums can be so generic. On a whim, I got the below one and it turned out to be great. It's not full of club bangerz but it's got some great songs on it.

Here are a few things I've been playing:

Depeche Mode -- Spirit
I'd say this is better than I expected. It sounds like Depeche Mode...Dave Gahan's voice is spectacular. Yeah, I still miss Alan Wilder, but I'd put Spirit as better than "A Broken Frame" or "Ultra".

Real Estate -- In Mind
Not nearly as strong as their other stuff. I like it, but I don't love it yet. And it's really, really meandering.

Anyone pick up the new Shins LP? Thoughts? I've kind of given up on them.

Have to admit, the new Father John Misty record is pretty good, but I can't help but think it sounds like Billy Joel. But you know what, I can dig on some good ol American pop.

The new Jesus and Mary Chain album sounds like Munki, so if you liked Munki, you'll probably like this. I don't like anything apart from Psychocandy and Darklands, so I don't like this at all. Boooooring.

Listened to Real Estate once, it was pleasant. Will give it a few more tries.

Blanck Mass is some awesome horror movie soundtrack type music. By the time May rolls around, I'll be done with it, but in the meantime, I'm digging it.

I realize I'm in the minority, but find the bulk of Psychocandy un-listenable. Love the songs (the Psychocandy show at the 9:30 was phenomenal), but the frequency is too painful for me to find enjoyable. My favorite JAMC record is Darklands. I think Automatic is spotty but still has some great tunes.

I admire Father John Misty for what he's trying to do, but I definitely cannot consider myself a fan. On SNL, I had flashbacks to Billy Squire. I know, excessive comparison...but the gestures were hilarious and overdone.

I think I prefer darklands to anything else... but they have tons of great songs up until and including stoned and dethroned..

i don't listen to any of it lately though.. maybe if i was going to see them live i'd dig darklands or psychocandy out

I found Fr Misty to be a huge, pretentious, fake douchebag, and I didn't like 'Honeybear' that much. But the new one is just so easy and well-produced that if I can't think of anything to play, I'll just put that on and I'll never be upset with my decision.

I'm not much of a fan of the JGB. Feels like they just play the same songs over and over in every performance, plus half of the songs are covers and I'm just not that interested in hearing Jerry sing How Sweet It Is, Second That Emotion, and a bunch of Dylan songs.

some of the JGB shows were much better than the Dead shows the last few years.... because the JGB let him do whatever he wanted (ie, drugs).. I've seen videos of concerts the same year with the JGB and the GD and they look like two different people... on one of them Jerry with the Dead is clearly strung out and he's dying out there.. sweat coming out of every pore and then with JGB he looks cool as a cucumber and is having a blast and playing/singing great... incredible difference..

I just don't need to hear every show Jerry sang at so I can pick my favorite periods and focus on those..

Love this record.. and the cover.. good find of past few days was this original still fully in shrink...

and listen to Jerry's voice on this.. on the Dr John What Goes Around he reaches perfection..

I happen to love the covers but on the live sets they can get a bit long.

of course this record opens up with a nice cover of Chuck Berry's Let it Rock which hits the spot.

^that was a good listen... bloomfield's stinging blues guitar leads are amazing (you have heard like them because they are all over Dylan's Highway 61 record)...

man I kind of wish I'd been around the late 60s.. its like they had amazing concerts every night.. on this one they played a few nights and you had guests like Santana, Elvin Bishop and Steve Miller and the bassist was John Kahn.... they really had amazing shows going on all the time at the Fillmore in SF...

Brian Setzer- Live Nude Guitars (LP)

I love Setzer... I so wish a Straycats reunion was so profitable they did one...I saw them once at the Jack Fest in Baltimore but its been too long and the set was kind of not a full set...

I want to like it, I'm really trying to like it, and when that first song comes on, I'm head-bopping and into it. But after that I zone out and then realize I'm at song 6 and have no idea what I just listened to. I'm not giving up on it yet, but it's definitely "late-era JAMC" which I understand is entirely appropriate since they are late-era JAMC. It's just not the sound I'm looking to re-live.

Also, why in the hell do they use such a tinny-sounding drum machine???? It's so annoying how anemic and lackluster it sounds. Just shell out for a real drummer, goddammit. Losing Bobby (or anyone, really) on drums was the biggest mistake they ever made.

Jamiroquai - Automaton

lots of analog keyboard, i'm guessing that jay kay has been noodling with a Moog for the past 7 years... it's as funky as you'd expect. there are some atonal dissonance/12 tone undercurrents that initially put me off the title track when it was first released, but in the context of the album the sound works. second time through and i'm loving it.

I been listening to the final "Pink Floyd" album.... really interesting... I wonder what the motivation was behind it.. I see it almost as a tribute/recognition of Wright... he has a ton of songwriting credits.. his parts take precedence (there are vocals on only one track out of 18).. and even the subject matter reminds me of Wright's fine solo album Broken China.. instead of "Drowning"on Broken China we have "Surfacing" (maybe an analogous piece to "Breakthrough"? Some of the song titles also seem to allude to relationship problems (maybe between Wright and Gilmour in the past?)..

David Gilmour's guitar work is so unbelievably tasty on it... I used to think maybe Knopfler has the best guitar sound but for the past few years I been thinking Gilmour...its just a vintage performance from David... I suppose most of it is from 1993 with some good editing from Youth etc...even Gilmour's vocal on the lone vocal tracks sounds great compared to say GIlmour's voice on his solo album from 2015 where he sound much diminished (25 years is 25 years)

anyways, its definitely an instrumental background music type album but there are so many points in the album that recall Pink Floyd moments be it from the Floyd forgery A Momentary Lapse of Reason or the vintage 70s records... even some of the instrumentation used.. like the VCS3 which is all oer DSOTM and which both Wright and Gilmour employ on this final album.....

There are no "hits" on this one but crank it in the car and if you like Floyd I would be surprised if you didn't find yourself listening attentively..

I will add that after spending many years in the Waters camp of Floyd I have done a virtual 180 the past few years.. I find the Waters-centric Animals and the Wall tedious compared to earlier Floyd..

Yes- 90125 (Japan made for US target CD)

This was the first CD I ever purchased... I think I got it at the Wherehouse in Menlo/Palo Alto about 1986... but the one I got then was the German made for US... absolutely amazing sounding CD... if only all CDs had sounded this good.... at the beginning with most CDs being produced in Japan and Germany for a limited audiophile market great care was taken to have them sound kickass.. then they started putting them out faster than you can say "shitshow" and the quality nosedived..

Trevor Horn who produced it really was on top of the world in 1983....he had produced ABC's Lexicon of Love which had sold by the buckets and followed it up with 90125...then in 1984 he'd do the Frankie Goes to Hollywood and of course the Do They Know Its Christmas...I think Belle and Sebastian used him at some point.. Pet Shop Boys used him on my favorite album of theirs..Introspective..

all this from the guy who got his start in the Buggles with Video Killed the Radio Star!!!

well the albums are fairly different...the only constant is Berman's kind of Lou Reed-ish slacker speak sing delivery of some great lyrics..the personnel alternates on the albums.... American Water is very Pavement...did you try that one? But then again I don't even think you're much of a Pavement fan so... the last one they put out something called Lookout Sea Lookout Mountain I think is pretty cool ..also a lot of Pavement vibe but Berman's wife Cassie Berman is so good on the backing vocals...

Berman's lyrics can be pretty astounding stuff...

I'd be shocked if you heard something like the first track on American Water- Random Rules- and didn't like it..its pretty frickin' great.... I'm talking as good as it gets:

In 1984 I was hospitalized for approaching perfection.
Slowly screwing my way across Europe, they had to make a correction.
Broken and smokin' where the infrared deer plunge in the digital snake.
I tell you, they make it so you can't shake hands when they make your hands shake.

I know you like to line dance, everything so democratic and cool,
But baby there's no guidance when random rules.

I know that a lot of what I say has been lifted off of men's room walls.
Maybe I've crossed the wrong rivers and walked down all the wrong halls.
But nothing can change the fact that we used to share a bed
and that's why it scared me so when you turned to me and said:

"Yeah, you look like someone
Yeah you look like someone who up and left me low.
Boy, you look like somene I used to know."

I asked the painter why the roads are colored black.
He said, "Steve, it's because people leave
and no highway will bring them back."
So if you don't want me I promise not to linger,
But before I go I gotta ask you dear about the tan line on your ring finger.

No one should have two lives,
now you know my middle names are wrong and right.
Honey we've got two lives to give tonight.

^Agree....but I didn't hear it til many years later which is so weird since I was one of those people desperately buying anything Pavement related.. the only thing I can figure is that the first thing I bought by the Silver Jews I did not like at all and stopped buying their stuff? I used to have the Arizona record but got rid of it.. still over the years without intending to looks like I picked up most of their stuff.. I prefer American Water by miles over Brighten the Corners or Terror Twilight..

true
but opening with Clash City Rockers ....just blew my 12 year old ears out of the water
and the inclusion of Complete Control and (White Man) In Hammersmith Palais
just make it a masterpeice IMO

I didn't know that Initial copies of the US version also came with a bonus 7-inch single which featured "Groovy Times" and "Gates of the West".
GotW is probably one of my favorite deep cuts "Little Richard's in the kitchen playing spoons and plates. He's telling the waitress he's great"

I Fought the Law- freakin classic...no idea that it had been recorded in May of 79!

the song left out were not that great
Deny, Cheat, Protex Blue, and 48 Hours

Cheat was great and ended up appearing on Black Market Clash
Those two US releases have soo much good stuff compiled prior to the LC/Sand/CR

but agreed...it's a compilation, but God damn if it's not one of the best I've ever heard

I have had this thought too..

I definitely listen to them a lot less... and I think some of it has aged very poorly or has been beaten to death so much I can't take it... then again, Sandinista which has not been beaten to death and is rather experimental at times I can still listen to.. but if I hear I fought the law or Should I stay or should i go again i'll run for the hills...

Assuming you're in your mid 30's or older, I think unfortunately they've just fallen victim to a band that you've heard every single day/week/month since you were 10 years old. There are so many classic bands that I can't even bear to hear due to those reasons.

Yep.

Easter brunch discussion of bands that will define the 2000's, led to someone reading the Rolling Stone best 100 albums of the naughts, where Smackie, by virtue of being 5-7 years older than the rest of the crowd has to explain the naughts from the Rolling Stone perspective (my favorite being that Conor Oberst was in Bright Eyes after the "never heard of them" comment). Then, somewhere in the 70's The Streets come up and I said "oh, great album" and of course they've never heard it, so we put it on and yes, I was quite embarrassed to still know all the words.

"Fit" was first, mixed reviews, so then I said play "Dry your Eyes" totally forgetting that we're out in Oakland because the host is going through a divorce. The party came to a screeching halt, but you know secretly everybody went home and listened to the rest of that song.

I'll take my bow now.

This album has a lot going for it.. the guys who recorded with Sahm on this are all incredible musicians like Bob Dylan who is on 4-5 tracks and gifted one to Sahm... or Dr John...David Fathead Newman..Flaco Jimenez.... even includes a fairly early cover of Me and Paul with Bob playing harp..

but its that laid back San Antone vibe so its not going to bowl you over either...

I'm not sure I can remember off the top off my head any other album that Bob guested so much on...there's a great picture on the back of the LP of the musicians all laughing it up..evidently a good time was had..

Jimmy Smith- The Boss

Nice underrated live set that came out in 1969... three years before Root down... obviously rootdown or root down is superior in every way but this one is not half bad....My favorite Jimmy Smith is oddly enough the period where he probably sold the fewest records.. sort of 1968-1972 or his last few years on Verve.. the stuff before that on Verve tneds to feature these big bands blaring away and are all about charts and orchestrations by people like Oliver Nelson or Lalo Schiffrin and I find those so boring.. I don't need a 20 piece group behind Jimmy.. I want him sounding like he would in some smoky dive bar.. anyways this, In a plain brown rapper, bluesmith and rootdown are probably my favorites.. i even like Jimmy singing..its pretty crazy but when it came out Root down probably sold about 10 copies..

i really like that feeling you get when you listen to an album that you haven't listened to in forever, and that clip in time you get of a sensation being taken back to the moments of your life when that album was one of the king listening choices to your world.

like for me, i put on the pulp fiction soundtrack and was magically transported to the year it came out, and what i was doing and who i was hanging out with back then. when was the last time you allowed yourself to listen to an album all the way through, letting the emotions of each song put a smile on your face . . . or an anger downward frown of getting fired up?

i think next i will listen to the beastie boys licensed to ill, which i was given a cassette of by my father, when i was in the 5th grade, i think. there are people who tell you to ignore the past, for it will destroy you, and then there are others who relish in it . . . because it is fun.

I think Chris does what he wants and is in a good place.... and if anyone is in a rip off dead band its John Mayer... I'll admit I've tried to get into Chris Robinson's band but the songs just aren't there..

one of the more bizzarre records I've bought...not sure what salsa dura has to do with the KKK or the mafia..good record though..apparently this album of versions of salsa standards was put together by an Argentine who moved to Peru and has an Orchestra there which would record just about everything...can't tell where this record was pressed.. could be Peru, Miami, Puerto Rico..from 1975 which is just about when the salsa boom or at least the quality of salsa began to wane...these are covers of Fania classics from the early 70s be they Willie Colon/Lavoe , Larry Harlow. .you name it..

one of my thousands of white whales... Townes' debut album from 1968 original Poppy pressing almost fully in shrink and in excellent play condition..found it recently at a thrift store for 40 cents... how it got there in the middle of classic thrift stuff like Tom Jones I have no idea...I guess it proves finds are still out there although I think they've gotten much much harder as everybody seems to have begun to think records are gold...I noticed Friends of Montgomery County Library, for example, is having an auction for their records! I remember when libraries couldn't wait to get rid of records for nothing...

Great box...I wish there were more quality boxes and reissues of reggae such as this, blood and fire releases and the Yabby U and Pablo boxes..so much great reggae is out of print or even lost existing only in one off dub plates...usually there is not even a record of who played what....meanwhile another compilation of Bob Marley music is readied...

For this week’s installment of Vintage Video, we present what’s believed to be the earliest pro-shot footage of R.E.M. in concert: a 50-minute live set filmed on Oct. 10, 1982, for broadcast on TV by a South Carolina station about six months before the release of the band’s debut, Murmur.

As you can see below, the setlist, to no surprise, is heavy on songs from the Chronic Town EP and Murmur, and includes “Ages of You,” which wouldn’t surface until the Dead Letter Office compilation was released in 1987. Watch for the band’s producer, Mitch Easter, and future fifth member Peter Holsapple to pop on stage, and certainly stick around for the reggae-like jam labeled as “Skank” that closes the set.

Watch the full performance from The Pier in Raleigh, N.C., below via zararity.

Setlist: R.E.M., The Pier, Raleigh, N.C., 10/10/82

1. “Wolves, Lower”
2. “Laughing”
3. “1,000,000”
4. “Moral Kiosk”
5. “Catapult”
6. “West of the Fields”
7. “Radio Free Europe”
8. “Ages of You”
9. “We Walk”
10. “Carnival of Sorts (Box Cars)”
11. “Skank”

when i got a copy of VU's third album recently i began to wonder if my other copy was the "Closet" mix but i could not find it until today when I was looking for Violent Femmes records in the "V" section.. lo and behold it was there and it turns out to be the rare "closet" mix..so I was listening to that a bit...

I been listening to a lot of Queen lately... they really were absolutely amazing.. all four could write great songs! all four were great players and songwriters....and the harmonies and vocal arrangements...

I think if you asked me what was the greatest band and defined greatest band in a certain way.. I'd say Queen..

Freddie Mercury's death still affects me big time even today...listening to "The Show Must Go On" i got so many goosebumps yesterday...its such a powerful performance and knowing he knew he has but months to live and was so sick when he sang it... geeze...he really belts it too.. what a bravura performance....

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/16/movies/queen-biopic-will-happen-band-says.html

I just don't see Rami Malek pulling off Freddie Mercury. Sasha Baron Cohen seemed to be a perfect fit. Too bad that didn't work out.

i have no idea what this is.
excuse my ignorance, what is it?

http://bfy.tw/D4T8

Don't be a dick to the semi-regulars who nicely word questions. Here's all dyecraig did: he goes to work, he gets on here, he's respectful to everyone, he's respectful to me, and he's a good boardie. And he's not a super regular boardie who signed up for that, and he doesn't deserve to be kicked when he's down.

If you have a child someday, you'll understand how it feels. But you obviously don't have a child.

Your child goes down the street, and somebody makes fun of him, because he dropped a pass in a pick-up game, or says he's fat, and he comes home crying to his mom, you'd understand. But you don't have that. But someday, you will. And when your child comes home, you'll understand.

If you want to go after a semi-regular-- one of the many classes of people I stand up for-- you go after one that doesn't do the right things. You don't downgrade him because he does everything right and may not know some terrible jam crap.

That's why I don't read Hutch's posts anymore: because they're garbage. And you copying that lame make-yourself-feel-good by insulting others style is garbage. Attacking a semi-regular poster for doing everything right. And then you won't write posts about guys that don't do things right and downgrade them -- no, they entertain you.

Are you kidding me? Where are we at in this community today? Come after me! I'm a man! I'm 40! I'm not-- I'm not a kid. Write something about me, or about my inadequacies. Don't write about a semi-regular who pops in from time to time that does everything right that's heart's broken, and then act like he's a point of derision. That ain't true! So get your facts straight.

And I hope someday you have a child and somebody downgrades him, and belittles him and you have to look him in the eye and say, "You know what? It's okay. They're supposed to be mature adults, but they're really not." Who's the kid here? Let me google for you who's the kid here? Are you kidding me?

That's all I've got to say. Makes me want to puke.

thanks julian.
that was nice of you to say those things.
i took it all in good humor, and had a laugh at my own caveman tendencies and general laziness.
i enjoy a good dialogue about all things music and can take a ribbing if warranted.
i know i like to dish it out, too.
i was away for a while and returned yesterday and immediately witnessed some unfortunate back and forth that made me remember why i left in the 1st place.
in my line of work, i see this sort of mentality more often than i care to witness, and age is not a factor if you get my drift.
and this is not a place i visit to enjoy more of the same.
but it's cool, man.
it's not like i'm gonna be sitting around listening to thirteen phish concerts. ;)

Dyecraig, please do not leave this place because of the aforementioned back and forth. I left this place a few times because of similar issues. I only came back because the board implemented a block feature; BUT I did not ignore the blocked person like I was doing for a bit, and then that happened. I am back to ignoring him.

it was not unless you have a thing for 80's country.
multiple i mean multiple copies.
3 crates of johnny cash, which was impressive.
i came away with a small stack of gap fillers and rescues.
but the couple was so nice and got royally screwed by a store that promised to buy everything and just cherry picked and gave them some money and said they would be back for the rest and never did.

I was on the fence about Dead Cross until they announced Secret Chiefs 3 as the opening band. Bought my ticket immediately when I saw that haha.

When it comes to Slayer just listen to the 80's albums several times through and that is all you need. I do listen to Seasons in The Abyss a lot more than the others though. You also may like their song with Ice-T on the Judgement Night soundtrack and their nu-metal album God Hates Us All is actually nifty.

I, was listening to it yesterday, but did not get all the way through. I, noticed that I was liking most, if not all of the songs I was hearing, which yes, is indeed an improvement from last albums.

also, I was listening to the new war on drugs album, and I came into it hearing people say, "it's good, but it sounds just the same" and that it just how I am leaving it.

Lloyd Price - specialty sessions (outtakes)

The beginning of rock and roll I think is on these sides from the early 1950s..he of course was not the only one but the new orleans sound as recorded at cossimos with a cadre of musicians like Bartholomew, Domino, Earl Palmer, Lee Allen et al is rnr ground zero...not as is often misrepresented Sun Records

I listened to a couple of tracks off of the Courtney Barnett/Kurt Vile album and it reminded me that I'd rather listen to the worst track by Hiss Golden Messenger 100 times over Kurt Vile singing his "best" song one time.

The new St. Vincent is pretty good, if at times a but same-y and too mainstream.

And basically any time I'm riding in the car with my 10 year old, I'm forced to listen to Taylor Swift's "Red" album, and am not allowed to listen to any of my own music.

I don't mind Preston...and I don't think the sound is that bad either. I have a bootleg called "Desperation Takes Hold" from the Paradiso in Amsterdam, and that's one of my favorite recordings. Pretty sure it was broadcast on the radio. I think Ian was showing off for Annik, which was part of why it's so good. Also the fact that they were performing in an old church.

Sleater Kinney-All Hands on the Bad One

This cd was in the pile of 46 cd's I picked up at the library book sale. I decided to give it a spin on the car ride back from Philly. My wife made numerous negative comments, including, "All of the things I like in music, this album doesn't have." "This album completely lacks and hooks", and "I think you're going to have to gong this one." My 10 year old daughter woke from nap to proclaim, "This music is horrible."

I then put on Taylor Swift's "Red", and all was right with the world, for both of them.

Weezer: debut album
Pavement: Terror Twilight
Dismemberment Plan: Emergency and I

No surprise to me that the winner of these three is the most mellow of the three, Pavement. The other two are fine as well when they're not being too screamy or spastic.

Sting + Shaggy - Don't Make me Wait (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOaRPJQXFG4)

“The most important thing to me in any kind of music is surprise,” says Sting, whose distinctive tenor, it turns out, is a highly appealing match for Shaggy’s gruffly melodic dancehall toasting. “And everybody is surprised by this collaboration—by what they’re hearing. We’re surprising.”

Shaggy reflects on it. He gives his assessment as the tune ends: “Doesn’t that just sound like something that hundreds of women would get pregnant to?”

I'm digging the new albums from:

Janelle Monae-early contender for album of the year
Shakey Graves-was not a fan before but like the new poppier sound
Willie-comedy album of the year
Brothers Osborne-I'm a sucker for baritone country vocals
Kavey Musgraves- Surprisingly, I actually like a few of the songs off of the new album, but there are a few that are comically bad.
Ashley Monroe- I like the new album enough, but I still prefer her rootsier stuff over this countrypolitan sound.

Andres Calamaro- El Samon (cd 2)

This five cd box set album with 100 songs is a beast...released in 2000 this has in the past few months grown to be my favorite album...in Ween terminology this is a very “Brown” record...in terms of Dylanology this is Calamaro’s “Basement Tapes” but I doubt anybody not Argentine could “get it” other than the more immediate “hits” concentrated on disc 1....

Not a bad spot, it's run by the guys who do Jammin Java, so they know how to run a venue well
decent beer selection and the pizza is a good deal considering the cost of food around there

about the size of u-street, but a better layout (400 max I think)
sound was ok when I was there...but it was a bluegrass band, so might not be a good barometer
biggest headache is by far parking...will cost more than your ticket
I'd recommend parking by l'enfant plazza and walking or taking the free shuttle (or metro and take shuttle)

There's been a ton of Bowie comparisons. Alex has own "Major Tom" moment on the title track (my favorite on the album). While it's not for everyone, it's great that they're trying new things. I loved AM but would have been quite bored if this had turned out to be AM 2.

The only highlight is definitely yellow submarine...I get they are trying to be hip with the tomorrow never knows (the Phil Collins original blows this out of the water)...and Indian shit but come on!

The guy who did the music - preisner- went on to be recognized even doing instrumentation:orchestration and charts for Gilmour Pink Floyd and gilmour solo

The band has been "linked to a spirit of folky 1960's revivalism," and they were called one of the leaders of the "freak folk" scene.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Space Freely on November 14, 2018, 10:02:46 am

New Order-Lowlife

Damn, it's still an amazing album.

When I was much younger, I worked at an amusement park for a couple of summers. I was a carny ride operator. One of the summers, I had an Ayn Rand reading mate who sarcastically dubbed some of our more scruffy co-carnies as "up and comers." Ah, good times.

The worst part of the job was cleaning up the puke. The best part of the job was I got to play my own cassettes over the sound system to thrill the ride goers. I'm sure they were hoping for Def Leppard or whatever else was popular in the mid-80's, but instead they got a lot of this album. The other weird thing was I had shitloads of trashy teenage girls who insisted on me posing for pictures with them.

I think my friend's point was that we were undergrads making some spending money from a summer job, whereas the people he was calling "up and comers" were seasonal workers who relied on getting laid off at the end of the season so they could collect six months of unemployment checks and come back to their carny job the next year.

I may have some pics from those days, but wouldn't posting them require me to first scan them, then having to find a site to upload it to, then posting the link here? Too much work.

Realized immediately, during the 8 plus minute first song, that something was amiss.

Playlist included:

November Rain
Smells Like Teen Spirit
Sweet Child o' Mine
Losing My Religion
Some Aerosmith song I cannot identify

They will get a very negative Yelp review for sure.

Andres Calamaro- Salmonalipsis Now

A 2cd compilation from his 5cd album El Salmon that came out in 2000... has about 5 previously unreleased tracks taken from the same sessions

El Salmon is my favorite all time album so it’s hard to listen to a compilation taken from it as you get used to the sequencing and the flow of the album

I went through a patch about 15 years ago where I became obsessed with this record label and tried to pick up as many original pressings but funnily enough I don’t listen to nearly as much jazz...like I overdosed....still every once in a while it hits the spot

I will probably unload a few this year as they have only gone up in value

off the top of my head some lps I obtained signatures the old fashioned way... Toots Hibbert, Bunny Wailer, Lee Perry, Aston Familyman Barrett, Al Anderson, Andres Calamaro, Guided by Voices (fully signed Alien Lanes), JSBX, Pearl Jam VS (Ament and Mcready), Mudhoney, Lucinda Williams, Lou Donaldson, The Meters (fully signed), Taj Mahal, Dandy Warhols, Elvis Costello (This Years Model original UK), Mountain Goats (Zopilote Machine), Butch Warren, Los Amigos Invisibles, Devo, Cowboy Junkies, Bauhaus (Bela 12" signed only by Peter Murphy), David J, Luna, Dean and Britta, Ween (Chocolate and Cheese only Gener![and Dreiwitz] sigh), Smithereens, J Geils Band (Magic Dick, Danny Klein and J Geils), English Beat (Wakeling), The Specials (no Terry Hall as you know), Babasonicos (CD), Buckwheat Zydeco, Allen Toussaint, New Order (Peter Hook), Wanda Jackson, Tony Bennett, Sex Pistols (Glen Matlock only), PiL (Lydon), Buzzcocks (Shelley and Diggle), Marah, Robyn Hitchcock, Ian Maclagan, John Wesley Harding, Jorge Ben, Tony Visconti and WOody Woodmansey, Giorgio Moroder, Bootsy Collins, Maceo Parker, Men Without Hats, Blondie (Debbie and Clem), NRBQ (Terry only), Jonathan Richman, Feelies, Seu Jorge, El Vez, Book of Love, Flamin' Groovies, Watt, Amadou and Mariam, John Hammond, The Breeders, Stereolab (Laetitia), G Love, Thurston Moore, Pete Best (!), Buddy Guy, Sylvain Sylvain, Ride, Sloan, Shelby Lynne, Weird Al Yankovic, Nellie McKay, Aterciopelados, Graham Parker, Detroit Cobras, Violadores, etc

Signed CDs kind of suck but I have bothered with a very few back in the day like Evan Dando on an early Lemonheads CD (Creator), Kristin Hersh, Ratones Paranoicos

Some signed set lists: Jesus and the Mary Chain (Jim and William), Liz Phair, Old 97s, Asylum Street Spankers, etc... I really forget but there are quite a few..

Some signed posters; Los Autenticos Decadentes (I think I got 7 of the band members)…

An old business card of mine: Gary Louris and Marc Perlman (I think) of the Jayhawks...

I don't really bother too much anymore... I am usually too tired and just want to go home... I don't want to stand around for an hour or two...

In fact it’s cd boxes like these where cds come in handy...collecting Jamaican music would be cost prohibitive and you would end up with a ton of semi scratched 45s as a lot of this stuff never made it to lps

Trojan boxes are great
couldn't agree more...although collecting them is out of my budget right now

I got 14 boxes at a record store for $2 apiece this week including this one..very exciting score...

Well they are out of print but if one persists should be able to track them down over time and that is what I am doing...I think originally they sold for $9.99... it’s a way to go beyond the typical 50 reggae tracks not by Bob Marley we usually get on compilations and be introduced to a lot of stuff

Unloved - Heartbreak

I'm a fan of all the projects that David Holmes is involved in and Unloved is no different. Several songs on this one were used in Killing Eve. Dig this groups take on 60s pop filtered through a little shoegaze

The Specials - Encore

While I'm enjoying their long awaited return, it does feel a bit like a Fun Boy Three(Two) record with the ghosts of Rico and Dammers lurking around. The best tracks are the spoke word ones B.L.M. and 10 Commandments with Saffiyah Khan who went viral wearing a Specials t-shirt while shouting down racists at protest.

The two cd Trojan reissue has 29 U Roy tracks versioning Treasure Isle classics and then the 29 classics on cd2....pretty fascinating

A good argument for collecting reggae on cd...you can get the original lp with like 12 tracks or pick up the comprehensive reissue with 58 songs for a fraction (although it’s out of print...)....I suppose you could get both

Mollie is Steven Marriott’s daughter and I’ve seen comments that she sounds like her father. I believe this is first full length album, but she’s been doing background vocals for others for awhile. Would say the album is pretty good, something to listen to on occasion, might also meet hutch’s quest for new Rock.

Not a best of....Leslie Kong production from 1970....in my opinion does not work well...The same production so successful for the Maytals and Pioneers does not work for Wailers

Supposedly Bunny Wailer did not want it released and said something like May Leslie drop dead if he puts it out...Leslie put it out and promptly had a massive heart attack

Some people really like this album

From this failed experience they moved on to lee Perry...they were in trouble but with Perry had success and the rest is history

One of my absolute favorites....the drum sound of Carlton Barrett with dub effects is some of the best I have heard

I found this at Som Records in the dollar bin over ten years ago...still a bit shocked by that but Neal Becton likes to occasionally throw in real gems...wish I still lived in the hood...now I only go every few months

Yeah the last one is fine but a double album is a bit much. Still has some jams on it though.

The last two summers have had consecutive Ottobar shows. Always a good time...I've driven back from OC vacations both times and then right back when the show ended.

One of my favorite jazz albums...this is an original mono deep groove from 1961....a healthy VG

The prices for these are so crazy... my philosophy is $500 records can’t sit around my house being listened to a few times a year...but I do love this one...I paid $80 a couple of years ago

I remember when he was at Bowie’s 50th concert

Time flies whether you are having fun or not

Striking how early Robert Smith was when he got started...he was only about 33 when Wish came out...25 for Head on the door

What a great 15 year run he had...

* 3/4 of the band identify as female

what if that's just a marketing ploy? what if they're actually cis-gendered patriarchally-oppressive males that pretend to be wymyn for the sake of a lazy audience seeking a lo-fi way to telegraph their wokeness? huh? did you ever even think about that? WE NEED PROOF. NAY, WE DEMAND IT. trust no one.

New Big Thief single. 2nd album of '19 dropping in October.

“Two Hands has the songs that I’m the most proud of; I can imagine myself singing them when I’m old,” Adrianne Lenker said in a statement. “Musically and lyrically, you can’t break it down much further than this. It’s already bare-bones.”

The other day I took my kid back to school thrift shopping and in addition to some lovely clothing items for both of us, I picked up these cd's:

Tom Waits-Frank's Wild Years and Bone Machine

As we were driving from one store to the other, I popped one of the cd's into the player.

Daughter: "What is this horrible music?"
Me: "It's Tom Waits, he's an American treasure."
Daughter: "He sounds like a pirate."
Me: "I think he would take that as a compliment."

My wife was also dismayed at the preppyish clothing I bought, proclaiming that she doesn't know who I am anymore.

one of me all-time fav tracks, off of a compilation series called "feed your head", is Qurna (Haj Ali's Birthday Mix) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mstU_QJ15qY). many hours went up in smoke listening to those comps. off to go dig through crates of physical media in the basement to unearth these old gems...

My copy of Drift Songs 1 Box set was waiting for me when I got back from Miami a week ago

Have you guys heard about this project? I guess it was originally released one song a week (that’s how much time they took per song) with a short movie video via their website

Anyways this box set is basically five underworld albums, a blue ray with like 30 videos , a bonus cd and the one disc sampler..I ordered early from their website and my copy is signed

It’s great...a total return to form...one of the most creative impressive works of music I have heard...if you liked these guys but stopped following them I recommend this box...it’s like an entire music world to explore

I thrift-stored this Rhino - Faces 4 CD Boxset for $1.00.

AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine [-]

There has never been a better box set than the Faces' Five Guys Walk into a Bar.... There has never been a box that captures an artist so perfectly, nor has a box set taken greater advantage of unreleased and rare material, to the point where it seems as essential and vital as the released recordings. Simply put, there's never been a box set as necessary as this, since it tells the band's entire tale and explains exactly what the fuss is all about.

The new one by The Who. A solid album, much better than anyone would expect. Roger sounds really strong, Pete's vocals lurking around the corners. Some fine songs with memorable lyrics and Pete's signature instrumental stylings. If this is it, it's a good way to go out.

Also did some light research. Some good stuff indeed. Saw the music video for "Lost on You" had a quarter of a billion views on youtube and assumed she was a huge pop act of which I was unfamiliar. Turns out she has been around a while and blew up in Greece a few years back. "Lost on You" topped their charts for roughly 7 months.

I just have to say that the new Best Coast LP is what I feel like I've been waiting years to hear: positive, optimistic, self-deprecating but funny, and there's an energy to it that makes 41 minutes seem incredibly brief. Bethany's grown as a vocalist, and each song is its own entity but as an LP, it flows perfectly. That is going to be such a great show, and with Mannequin Pussy opening, it shouldn't be missed. That's one band that definitely deserves some love.

Never realized there was a volume 2...volume 1 has the classic dialogue that Primal Scream sampled “we want to be free..”

Although I recently came across someone else that sampled that before Primal..name escapes me but I was surprised

Nope

After this came out in 79 he didn’t do anything til 84 which is when the cheesy synth thing began..

The record company refused to release the 84 album in the US ...Hallelujah was on it

The CEO of Columbia famously told Cohen when Leonard went to see him to beg he release album in US: We know you’re great Leonard, but is it any good?

David Bowie - Stage 2017 Edition. Vastly superior to the OG, in that the original setlist order is restored and now it makes sense. I could just never get with Alabama Song, no matter who was singing it. For no reason other than I just think that it's an annoying song.

+1...hate that song

although had no idea of the history
The "Alabama Song"—also known as "Moon of Alabama", "Moon over Alabama", and "Whisky Bar"—is an English version of a song written by Bertolt Brecht and translated from German by his close collaborator Elisabeth Hauptmann in 1925 and set to music by Kurt Weill for the 1927 play Little Mahagonny. It was reused for the 1930 opera Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny and has been notably covered by The Doors and David Bowie.

This is the Mudhoney record with the sample from The Wild Angels which Primal Scream used a few years later

Mudhoney LP came out in 88 and the Scream’s Loaded in 1990

It was DJ Andrew Weatherall who I believe just passed away that used the sample for Primal Scream...I doubt he knew who Mudhoney was in 1990

It would have been about 26 years ago

I do remember trying to hip Mould to the Mountain Goats and Bob saying My Bloody Valentines Loveless was 20 years ahead of its time...then when Sugar’s FUEL came out I noticed Favorite Thing was a blatant ripoff of a MBV song or maybe it was already out

It was cool chatting with Mould for quite a bit before a few others noticed him

I do not remember him hipping me to GBV but probably true

Then you work back but only as far as Propeller and Vampire on Titus plus the Fast Japanese Cycle ep

Then the Robert Pollard first solo LP Not in my air force

Then the GBV fan club cd/LP Tonics and Twisted Chasers

Then the Bob Pollard/Doug Gillard LP Speak kindly of your fire department which even Bob now says should have been a GBV LP

If you are liking it all hard then you are ready for the first Suitcase

That’s how I would start...

Maybe throw in a live semi official bootleg to get a feel for the live experience ..man where they sloppy at first but that was part of charm

Live boot I would get is Crying your knife away

If you find yourself liking the Tobin sprout sung songs and they were part of what reeled me in you would get Sprouts first matador LP...carnival boy

Think of pollard as Lennon and McCartney and Sprout as George Harrison

This is until Bob splits up band in 1997 and comes back with mag earwig which I avoid

This is their 2016 comeback album produced by Adam Schlesinger and it's a seriously fun 60s throwback listen.

The credits are on this a bit crazy as beyond Micky, Micheal and Peter, it's got two of the FOW members on it Jody on Guitar and Brian on Drums. Plus for your complete That Think You Do connection Mike Viola plays on it as well.

It also has songs by Andy Partridge, Rivers Cuomo, Ben Gibbard and Paul Weller on it.

My Schlesinger deepdive yesterday included a podcast where he talked through the Monkees "Christmas Party" record.

No they definitely had 5 minutes circa Backwater
Then KURT covered three puppets songs in a row on unplugged which is all anyone listened to in 94

Then their album No Joke totally flopped in 95

Yup I went to record store! Highlight of the week!

I like the album particularly Side A...very 80s vibe...(partial writing credits to Billy Idol and Psychedelic Furs!)

But it does run out of gas on last two songs of Side B which are too long

Rick Rubin produces it supposedly (I know he often just takes credit though)

I like the album but can only give it a B+ or three out of four popcorn 🍿 boxes....

Can't go wrong with the debut (self titled)- probably his best. The first John Prine album I listened to was 2005's Fair and Square.
I love "In Spite of Ourselves" as well. I've not even heard the last album...the last Prine show I saw was 2011 at Wolf Trap but my fave was the one at Warner in 2007 when he did a good chunk of duets from In Spite of Ourselves with Iris DeMent.

Anthology hits all the high points through 1993. In Spite of Ourselves was a totally charming duets collection. For Better or Worse was a nice but not as good follow-up 17 years later.

Broken Hearts & Dirty Windows was and excellent tribute album by a bunch of singers with arguably better singing voices.

1. "Bruised Orange (Chain of Sorrow)" Justin Vernon
2. "Wedding Day in Funeralville" Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band
3. "All the Best" My Morning Jacket
4. "Mexican Home" Josh Ritter
5. "Six O'Clock News" Lambchop
6. "Far From Me" Justin Townes Earle
7. "Spanish Pipedream" The Avett Brothers
8. "Angel from Montgomery" Old Crow Medicine Show
9. "The Late John Garfield Blues" Sara Watkins
10. "Daddy's Little Pumpkin" Drive-By Truckers
11. "Unwed Fathers" Liz Isenberg/Deer Tick
12. "Let's Talk Dirty in Hawaiian" Those Darlins

Watched the Prince tribute as well some hits, some misses and some blah and yes I chopped a bunch of onions while watching it.

My biggest take away was Prince worked with some bad ass women. Shelia E was on fire and Wendy nailed that Purple Rain solo.

While Mavis Staples is one of my favorite singers, didn't think the version of Purple Rain suited her style of singing.

8tracks.com !!!!

Back from the grave

AFTER THE CURTAIN CALL — AN ENCORE!
We are thrilled to announce that 8tracks will resume streaming from its website, effective immediately.

TL;DR: The 8tracks platform & brand are now owned & operated by BackBeat Inc., a new startup which acquired a portion of 8tracks’ assets during its wind-down earlier this year.

While certain music will not be available due to licensing restrictions, most existing playlists will be available to stream, beginning today.

If you still have the iOS app on your device, it will work out of the box. Otherwise, we’ll be re-introducing the 8tracks mobile apps and playlist creation (and perhaps a few new surprises) in the months ahead.

I'll have to check that one out... Listen to the Jeff Mills & Tony Allen release from a couple years ago. Really interesting combining of Detroit Techno and Afrobeat. Think this is one for the headphones... Also, did both of The Good, The Bad and Queen. First one really holds up well, but the second Merrie Land is a bit of slough to get through...

I'm with you...there are good songs on some of the other releases
but these are my top 3 hands down

I really love the double album release of Loaded ...Fully loaded
with the alt takes and Ocean (that it was never released is criminal)
and that great Moe Tucker song - I'm sticking with you

some of these appeared on VU (outtakes compilation album released in 85...their highest-charting album!)
Then a lot were re-recorded (poorly IMO) by Lou, but I think the originals are soo much better

well "Satellite of Love" is the exception...that was awesome on Transformer

also not talking about Doug Yule on loaded and Mick Ronson on Transformer is giving too much credit to Lou

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: hutch on May 05, 2020, 03:05:55 pm

That movie is horrible

What they did to Jay Bennett is unforgivable

I am sure Jay had his moments of being a douche but to frame the movie around that and make it about firing him

Who does that?

It’s fine if Tweedy wanted to get rid of him but to intentionally include scenes that cast Jay in an unflattering light, fire the guy and then put it out..totally classless dick move...that was some cold ass shit way to treat a guy who worked his ass off for Wilco for many years...

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: hutch on May 05, 2020, 03:08:45 pm

And I like Wilco and Tweedy (the bio is great)

But come on...if you don’t get uncomfortable watching that I don’t know what to tell you

I mean basically the movie has two very simple plot lines

1. Band moves on from Jay
2. Band plays record labels

It’s tough to see how one can separate the movie from 1

it's called scratch, by serato. the "LPs" contain time code, which is read by the needle and fed back to the software. the speed and start position of the (digital) music is controlled by the time code on the vinyl. moving the vinyl = change the music. music is coming from the computer, the records are controllers.

When Suzi put this out in October 1973 Joan Jett has just turned 15...the Runways years away and her solo career still about seven years away

It's kinda like saying that Bowie's early 70s stuff isn't worth listening to as he basically ripped off Marc Bolan

i can’t think of one great Joan Jett album I pull out

Let’s face it she was a manufactured rock star...and is best known for a faithful cover of an obscure song called I love rock and roll...the original version is so obscure most people think she wrote the song...her other hits follow the same pattern : crimson and clover etc

The Runaways records are mediocre.. basically Kim Fowley selling teenage sex

And the comparison with Bowie/T Rex? That happened within a year or so...Suzi Quatro was in 1973!! Way before Jett not to mention Jett never got close to what Suzi Quatro did whereas Bowie gave us Ziggy

I don’t get the Joan Jett thing..even Chrissie Hynde rocks harder and better

Well, I won't argue she has one great album and 100% most of her best songs are covers

and also not going deny that there was some work to make her a star,
but my understanding is no one would sign Jett before I Love RnR
They had to come up with their own label Blackheart Records to get their stuff released
so can't really say that some big studio guy had their back in the early 80s...at least as far as I can tell
after ILrnr became huge, I'm sure that changed

I think these are all rocking tunes
Crimson and clover
Do you want touch me
Bad Reputation
I hate myself for loving you

I don't love everything about the runaways, but Cherry Bomb (co-writting credit to jett) is a great song

I do agree Chrissie has much more cred and swagger

The key with Blackheart records is they quickly got major label distribution (Epic? No maybe CBS) so how indie is it when you get stocked in every record store in America? This wasn’t Dischord..

How indie is this? Read his bio

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenny_Laguna

I really think Jett is a bit of an act

Notice Laguna’s connection to bubblegum pop!

The key question is how did Blackheart records get all that distribution in the early 80s?

My guess is Blackheart Records is a shell corporation and about as indie as the major that distributes it..makes for a great PR story though which Jett has been milking for 40 years

Yeah, but that was after ILRNR started becoming a hit
my understanding is they shoped it around to every lable and got turned down by every single one so they had to self release
some NY dj loved it and played the shit out of it, then Epic/CBS was like...umm we better snap this up

she and her manager, Kenny Laguna, found it virtually impossible to land a record deal; as Laguna later alleged, they received at least one rejection letter from every major in the industry. Undaunted, Laguna funded and self-released Jett's 1980 solo debut, selling it directly to concertgoers at her gigs. Eventually, her music got the attention of former Casablanca Records impresario Neil Bogart, who picked up the distribution rights to the Joan Jett record — later reissued as Bad Reputation — and brought Jett on board for her next release.

No! I love rock and roll is her second album! By that point she was part of Boardwalk Records run and owned by the guy who used to own Casablanca (KISS, Donna Summer, Village People, etc)

So are you saying that the statement above is a fabrication?
I saw the documentary from a few years back and the story was pretty much the same
Doesn't mean it was is a fact... but that's the story I am sticking with

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: hutch on May 18, 2020, 12:01:14 pm

She was indie for a year cause nobody was interested and when her manager Laguna, mainly from the bubblegum world of yummy, yummy hooked Bogart, of KISS and Village people fame, she became part of the majors...she retained her imprint (Blackheart) for cool points

She’s a fake.

Speaking of fake I saw Joan at the 930 maybe 15 years ago? The Botox my lord

On the plus side she did that album with The Gits or what was left of them as Evil Stig

I am not sure what you are saying you are sticking to? That she was unsigned after leaving the Runaways? Obviously true but she signed as quickly as she could when someone put a contract in front of her

yes, will agree she looks scary in the doc (2017?)

still seems like she recorded ILRNR before the majors (who all rejected it after she had the product)
and only signed once Bogart got involved, but the order matters
Yes, she became a big part of the machine after that

Menswe@r - Nuisance

They just announced a boxset for Menswe@r and I'm like yeah they had that one really great track "Daydreamer" a boxset seems a bit much. But as always I listen to the full album and it's bloody fantastic. The boxset collects the singles and an second album only released in Japan.

1. The song is really good because it's acoustic like, and softly melodic; not crazy out there weirdo, sort of reminiscent of the soft bulletin.

2. Oh my God yes. I have had 3 new leads just in the past few days from people from the DC area wanting to get the hell out.

remembering Medgar Evers on the anniversary of his assassination
Mississippi Goddam (https://youtu.be/WoLWMv9E7iU)

On June 12, 1963, American civil rights activist Medgar Evers was assassinated in the driveway outside of his home in Jackson, Mississippi

Hutch...I'd like to enlist your help on finding more info on this

I've done some googling to find out where this particular recording is from
this one is from Nina Simone ‎– The Very Best Of Nina Simone, 1967-1972 : Sugar In My Bowl

I can't find any information about it, but it was obviously recorded after 4/4/68

at 3:00 she says 'the king of love is dead, I ain't about to be non-violent honey'
but I can't find it on any live recordings of this song in this era?

From what I can tell it was recorded at the 'nuff said! concert but left off the release
One of Simone’s most powerful concerts, captured on the ’Nuff Said! album, took place at Westbury Music Fair on 7 April 1968, three days after Dr King was shot dead. She grieved on a brand-new song called Why? (The King of Love Is Dead), then raged on a white-knuckle version of Mississippi Goddam. “The king of love is dead,” she said. “I ain’t ‘bout to be nonviolent, honey!”

also at 1.24 when she does that verse "and I even stoped believing in prayer' has always struck me as the entire inspiration of Nick Caves musical career

Cornershop- Judy sucks a lemon

This cd is much better than I gave it credit for 10-11 years ago

I ordered the new LP from tjinder’s cornershop website..can’t wait

I paid $12 more than through amazon - damn shipping-but I know it makes a huge difference to the artists pocketbook and since they never play live..

Tjinder and cornershop record exactly like I think everyone should..the bass and drums in particular

Still wish they hadn’t cancelled the US tour for this!!!! Now they are retired from touring

As usually happens when I get into a band I did some serious research and learned some interesting things including that it is the same guys over the years..same drummer..same bassist since Handcream

The drummer I really love...his use of high hat is so cool

And then I found the financial accounts for tjinders company..how much he paid himself last year (dividends he took out)

And pictures of his house, it’s appreciated half a million pounds since he bought it..nice place..big red double decker runs by right on corner

I was worried about him but he is doing just fine..should have known..he has always struck me as smart

I have liked cornershop since brimful ..Handcream was one of my two main party records during the 000s

If there was enough money they would do it but there isn’t

Pretty sure their last US tour attempt in 2010 was cancelled cause ticket sales weren’t there..I could be wrong though

But yeah they or Tjinder has been clear that they are done touring which is a shame. When they played US in 2002 I was in Argentina

Why did I miss them circa 1998? No idea...maybe I was traveling for work...

What I did hear about DC show was pretty mixed..very short show with Tjinder berating crowd... I trust my source but when I questioned him last time in March he seemed to have mellowed about it

I do think Tjinder is a bit of a studio whiz kid and it’s hard to replicate the sound live

Another thing I was thinking about was they own www.cornershop.com domain name..that has to be worth a serious chunk of change in the UK..

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?

then they come back to the 9:30 4 months later in 98 (May)

I love these guys...they were used to great effect in that Sofia Coppola movie about Marie Antoinette

Unlike a lot of early 80s music I find it hasn’t aged poorly

Interestingly that a clearly manufactured act (Malcolm McLaren) has five tracks on this - including the “hit”-produced by Kenny Laguna the same dude who was indie street cred hero Joan Jett’s producer..

I love that album and knew the Malcom connection, but didn't know the Joan Jett connection

Kenny Laguna is a long time member of the music community, as performer, songwriter, and producer.
In the late seventies, he wrote and produced new wave punk hits for Jonathan Richmond and Greg Kihn. \

Kenny was asked to produce Bow Wow Wow. The outcome of these sessions was a hit called "I Want Candy." Around the same time, he began working with Joan Jett. This collaboration marked the beginning of a long-standing partnership between Kenny and Joan.

Including, upon relisten, a weirdly timely Pepper.

Another Mikey took a knife
While arguing in traffic
Flipper died a natural death
He caught a nasty virus
Then there was the ever-present
Football player rapist
They were all in love with dyin'
They were doing it in Texas
Pauly caught a bullet
But it only hit his leg
Well it should have been a better shot
And got him in the head
They were all in love with dyin'
They were drinking from a fountain
That was pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

Purple Mountains

I held off listening to this til today...Amazon is having a cool music sale..buy 2 get 3....on certain items..even the new Bob Dylan album which I am awaiting any minute

Anyways yes this record is fantastic but damnit it’s one long suicide note...kind of heartbreaking although it’s a part of life that should be written about...feelings of failure, a disintegrating marriage, losing friendships, alienation, loss of belief in God and a wish to be done with it...

Honestly it’s great stuff but a little intense...it’s a very good look at a person about to kill themselves which is very different from a look at a person that is sad

That’s a weird expression...I am only honest even with a sacred cow like Bob Dylan

My favorite Dylan albums since 1997

1. Time out of mind
2. Modern Times
3. Christmas in the heart

The above are just superb and I will stand on Steve Earle’s coffee table and say so

Tier right below

1. Tempest

Just don’t do much for me

1. Love and theft
2. Together through life

Not going to get into the “Sinatra Dylan albums”

I can’t judge a Dylan record after one listen so we will see on Rough and rowdy ways but it doesn’t rock much which bums me out a bit

But at this point anything he does is a bonus

Yeah: "The South Will Never Rise Again" is great. I ended up buying the LP off the label's website and bought other stuff on the Bandcamp on Friday. My record buying costs are still nowhere near my former concert ticket buying costs, so that is my rationalization for spending this money that I should be saving.

The Strokes - The New Abnormal

Key listen after a few months...does it have staying power? When you first listen to an album you want to think it’s good particularly if you had to pay for it...maybe everyone around you tells you it IS good....

You put it away and a few months later you dig it out and think to yourself “ok is it actually any bloody good?”

Patience · Chris Cornell

Today would have been Chris Cornell’s 56th birthday, and his family is marking the occasion by sharing his previously unreleased cover of Guns N’ Roses’ “Patience”.
Cornell’s family said, “His birthday seemed the perfect time to share this and celebrate Chris, his voice, music, stories and art. It is true a man is not dead while his name is still spoken… and, through his art, an artist’s soul still burns just as bright as ever upon all those that look up to him and his memory. Releasing music that was special to Chris keeps a part of him here with us — his heart and his soul. His love and his legacy.”

Bob Dylan - Self Portrait

There are plenty of Dylan albums I like far less...never understood the criticism this gets

Finally found a copy with 360 red labels (one of the last as this came out June 1970..only the Terre Haute pressing plant used a few of these labels initially for this record) ..been looking for over 15 years...was beginning to think it didn’t exist

It did set me back $65 which is kind of insane but it was one of my white whales

Van Halen - Diver Down

To me VH may be the sound of 9th/10th grade...it’s not what I listened to most but they were the most popular band at my school with many of the guys ....everyone wanted to be Eddie..The MTV videos....and it really takes me back to a place and point in time...of course at this same period VH gets rid of Diamond Dave and Eddie gets obsessed with synths and Hagar joins and brings in a different vibe..too many sappy live songs...In retrospect I don’t blame Sammy

Diver Down gets shit cause it’s short and has covers but I love it..

Didn’t realize Eddie and Alex’s dad Jan plays the clarinet on Big Bad Bill

It’s such a fun album!

Van Halen really had it going on during the David Lee Roth period

*too many sappy love songs

I kind of regret not going to any of the VH reunion shows but the way they froze out Michael Anthony just pissed me off and knowing all the hatred between Eddie/Alex and DLR just ruined the vibe...I mean I wait decades for the reunion and then they freeze out Mike? It was so lame

I know I would have had fun seeing them though..how could you not?

The Holloways - So This Is Great Britain

Yup an album very much in the vein of other mid 00's British bands, I would have probably been listening to this one at the time, reminds me of Little Man Tate...

and at least a couple former members on the forum were hip to them at the time.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Space Freely on September 07, 2020, 02:11:46 pm

This post is dedicated to Hutch, who complains that i never talk about music.

Flaming Lips-American Head. I've never been a big fan but i have a feeling this is going to be my favorite album of theirs.

Old 97's-Twelfth. It didn't grab me at first but it's starting to after two more listens. I still love Rhett's lyrics and Ken's guitar, after all these years.

Bill Callahan- Gold Record. It's about the same as every other Bill Callahan record. Which for me means i like it.

Tricky- Fall to Pieces. It seems like he's had a lot of misses but this one's a hit for me.

Bettye Lavette- Blackbirds. She's 74 but her voice sounds as awesome as ever. Nice selection of covers.

Gillian Welch- Boots #2 The Lost Songs. She's so non-prolific, it's amazing she actually has lost songs. These are as good as anything else she's released...which means very good.

My Morning Jacket-The Waterfall Part 2. I actually like it better than the first album.

Taylor Swift-Folklore. Norman Fucking Rockwell, Jr. Ok, not that good, but better than any other Taylor Swift album, for me.

I also sampled a bunch of albums that didn't really do it for me (hi Lucinda, Pollard, Conor, Bebel, and more) but why go negative?

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: hutch on September 07, 2020, 02:32:11 pm

Thanks for the long distance dedication

I am going to get the new Tricky for sure..I love everything he does pretty much

Am considering getting off the Old 97s bandwagon... Rhett going on about sobriety just isn’t my thing and the last album ended up being a snoozer for me... it’s messed up cause All Messed Up or whatever was so good

Laurie Styvers - early 70s folk/baroque

Reminds me of Judee Sill

Not bad...

She recorded this when she was like 20 in 1971 and then a follow up in 73

Then apparently gave up music and drank herself to death

Sometimes listening to the ones that didn’t make it...the losers...can be fun

i don't like this cover. guitars replaced by a horn section, Bono's lounge-lizard vocals, the backing vocals at the end sound off... overall, way too safe and clean. this isn't a safe and clean song. i'm sure this version will go over great on cruise ships (if they ever get going again).

The Delgados have a twitter account now, so by law one must listen to their catalog. Currently it's Hate

https://twitter.com/delgados_the

Brief history of the delgados.

In 1994 four guitarists decided to form a band. Two were promoted to drums and bass. 5 albums were recorded over 10 years. In 2005 two guitarists, a drummer and a bass player decided to stop the band.

Kevin Rowland - My Beauty

His album of covers with the at the time an interesting choice of photo on the front cover... Not even sure this was ever released in the US... and in this day and age the cover would probably been seen a little less revealing... based on the reactions I saw during the listening party for it, it appears to be equally loved and maligned at the same time

Eno / Apollo

Really good probably a classic

I hear what U2 must have heard when they hired him... one of the tracks has real overtones of where the streets have no name

A couple of others remind me of the KLF Chill Out album (one of my top favorites)

I don’t want to jinx this but having listened to the new AC/DC album in it’s entirety twice I think this is a return to form

Much better than Rock or Bust (2014) and a bit better than Black Ice from 2008

It’s no Back in Black..those days are over..it could never be... but it’s damn good (if you like AC/DC)

Well Pitchfork did give him a 7.4/7.5.

AC/DC- Power up

Why is this album better than some others by them? And way better than the last one

- bluesier Rock riffs by angus (see bluesy riff on No Man’s land which sounds kind of like a Jimmy Page thing from Zep say In My time of dying) who worked hard to come up with something
- Producer O’Brien took a crash course of mutt Lange ...much better backing vocals than recently

The best example of the above is Kick you when you’re down which marries a great Angus blues riff with Mutt Lange backing vocals (think Def Leppard if you never associate AC/DC with these backing vocals even though Mutt pioneered it with AC/DC)

Just a great listen... and a relief

A special word about “Through the mists of time”.... I don’t know how they managed this one but this is grade A and gives me goosebumps...the ultimate tribute song to Malcolm at least I choose to take it that way... no they could not duplicate Back in Black’s entire album fantastic tribute (album not song) to Bon Scott but this song just amazes me...nobody who likes AC/DC will fail to appreciate this one...grade A

Also, hats off to Brian Johnson who sings and screeches his heart out and Phil Rudd who is the magic card on drums...that snare and high hat...perfect

Also nods to Thunderstruck on a few songs

At this point nearing 50 years AC/DC isn’t going to make many new fans and their music is dated and culturally largely out of step so it really is about their fans still with them..And they delivered for them here...

Unbelievably, I have never seen the Pretenders perform live music in my presence.

If we make it out of this thing alive (me and the Pretenders), I will remedy that.

I'm still kicking myself for not catching them at the FSS last time around
I too have never seen them live

They were supposed to play Jiffy on Aug 2nd this year...

I still don't think a true scene will reemerge until Spring of 2022. Yes, there will be one offs, some outdoor festivals, and some really terrible bands that agree to play half empty sheds and stadiums, but packed clubs and arenas are still very far away.

One of my favorite albums..finally on LP (a few years ago).. the reissue has an extra song..and a couple of tracks are extended

Over the past few decades I have listened to some of his pre Buena Vista stuff and it tends to suck..recording quality sucks..his piano buried in mix or slathered with strings..songs not as good

Maybe I haven’t heard his 50s and 60s with the classic Cuban orchestras but I suppose his piano will be even more buried and solos short

In any case this album is a definitive masterpiece..it’s a shame he was “rediscovered” so late in life and at the same time a real blessing he was rediscovered

At times uncannily reminiscent of the Incredible String Band...not a huge fan of this type of music - British folk- but I got to give it to Malkmus that at least he is trying lately..trying something different....this is Malkmus without the guitar jamming or catchy tunes (although these tunes are probably growers)

It’s a great autumnal listen. Beautifully recorded....easy going vibe.. great bass at times evoking Danny Thompson .. Matt Sweeney is like a matador doppelgänger showing up everywhere (GBV, Cat Power, Iggy Pop, this...etc)

Rinocerose- Installation Sonore

This is an album only I seem to love... French house/ electronica circa 99...no vocals...some flute seems to be a distinguishing feature...I tend to hate flute but it works here

Sent to me by a record club on my last subscription to one of these...there are a few really cool tracks on it Le mobilier, Mes vacances a Rio, Le guitaristic house organisation, Sublimior, Radiocapte, etc In fact album starts out awesome but fades a. It on second half or I don’t have the attention span!? I think it’s fair to say it’s front loaded

I like it better than Daft Punk or Cassius’ debuts...not as much as Air’s debut but it’s dancier and I think I have listened to it more the past twenty years

Unfortunately the next few albums by these guys were clunkers...and they faded fast....by 2002... I read they are psychologists by day

Now I dig it out every few years for a spin...I need to upgrade to vinyl but I have all the key 12” singles and the mini album that preceded it and has the best tracks from this on it so maybe not unless it have $40 to burn

I have held off on this one for 17 years

The end of Steely Dan..sort of kept it in my back pocket as am wont to do

Today at the edge of the western world in 2020 on the cusp of 50 it’s hitting the spot..a little more understated than its predecessor the much ballyhooed comeback album -but ultimately unsatisfactory- Two Against Nature- hey kids can you believe it won best album Grammy for 2001? course the Dan became the soundtrack for my life this year...I am glad they cut this even though it’s clearly the most pointless record in their oeuvre..an unnecessary postscript... they realized this and never tried again...rarely was an album more aptly titled

This is the ultimate feel good record for me... just an amazing bit of happenstance this even happened

I think Bob Dylan’s rut ends here...this album and playing with the Dead got him out of it.. Tweeter and the Monkeyman is a great Bob tune although I happen to think Petty had quite a bit to do with it... he namechecks like ten Springsteen songs on it!

It’s a shame nobody could come close to them after they were done... arguably they were done as a creative force about 1990

Bands like Flogging molly, dropkick Murphy’s etc are just a bad joke

Then again nobody can touch Shane MacGowan... one of the finest songwriters of any generation

Saw them at old 930 in 1985ish time period and they were great!

I love this album
I had a mix cassette with this and Mekons Fear and Whiskey (that surely you made) that I wore the shit out of
I'm glad that my last pre covid show was the Poguetry in Motion at the black cat

Spider Stacy & Cait O'Riordan were in the ranks
I'm a Man You Don't Meet Every Day, A Pair of Brown Eyes and Dirty Old Town

They didn't play Sally MacLennane which is probably my favorite Pouges tune of all time
but it's all Shane in that one

Has anyone seen that Documentary they released this year...don't think you can stream it in the states (yes you could buy a VPN)

I kind of wish I had gone but I had a great night at Outer Body Llama and saw many friends..who knows when I will see them again?

If it happens again I will check it out

$35 just seemed excessive but maybe it’s not.. I know I would have enjoyed it

I never realized Cait joined the Pogues at 17 and came in as Shane’s gf...I just had no idea.. so she’s probably only 5 years older than me! (Looked it up and she is exactly give or take a few days six years older)

The complete crap out of Shane has been so depressing ..

I really think when he was with the Popes was the last time he tried to get it together..he looked fit as a fiddle then as I recall wearing some black spandex outfit..he was in great shape

Ten years later at the 930 he needed an oxygen tank to get through the set

And look who just shows up in news

Love - Forever Changes

was seriously late to the brilliance of the album, but what a gem it truly is... and Johnny Ecohls shared some great tidbits about it during his listening party for it.

The title, "A House Is Not A Motel" came about due to Arthur coming home and finding a couple (Bryan had invited over) getting busy on the living room floor of the Castle
Arthur yelled out "BRYAN, my house ain't no fucking motel." The incident became an inside joke among members of the group. We thought it would be a great song title, the record co. abridged it.

also

"You Set the Scene”, was actually three different songs, that were never finished. Kenny Forssi put those unfinished songs together into one song that became "You Set The Scene," he did a fantastic job.

I need to clean my car bad...maybe even get it detailed after cleaning

Kills me the original Express didn’t include either Holiday on the moon (in the running for greatest b side ever?) or Ball of confusion

The tape I had in Argentina didn’t have Holiday on the moon.. sidehatch had the CD US issue which tacked it on..only reason I heard it about 94

I still think Express is one of the great ones

L & R don’t get the props they deserve

If you think back to 85-87 - pre alternative-when their three masterpieces came out there weren’t many bands doing what they did but they sort of been written out of the history.. I think they had an outsized influence on 1990s alternative

Post by: hutch on January 12, 2021, 12:40:27 pm

Well it’s usually true that tribute albums suck but there is a reason for them

Sometimes you love an act so much you want to pay tribute and expose others..maybe newer generations to the music that meant so much to you.. it wouldn’t be art if artists didn’t put their own spin on the songs...but that can be jarring for longtime fans of the original versions

Bob Dylan put together the excellent Jimmie Rodgers tribute for this reason..even put it out on his own record label... he certainly didn’t do it for the $!!!

Post by: hutch on January 12, 2021, 12:53:57 pm

This particular tribute is kind of weird...first of all the mp3 streaming version has like 26 songs! The CD 17 and the LP 12

The heavyweights are Puscifer whose Holiday on the moon seems to be the reason this record sold any copies.. TOOL fans

Then Black Francis, Dandy Warhols, Monster Magnet and Flaming Lips

Most of the rest seem like minor musicians -obscure-or people I don’t like

Much like Lift (final L & R) the record company that put this out either went under or is so inconsequential that the record went out of print long ago

I believe Daniel Ash had something to do with this tribute...

At first listen it seems fairly underwhelming although I have only heard the LP

I can’t help but be annoyed the record has so few songs and four of them on the 45... my guess is they were so tight for $ they couldn’t even make it a two LP set

Arguably finest album released in 1995.

The final studio album by Soda Stereo is my favorite by them...

The original CD release sounds amazing but I had to buy the reissue on LP which is surely just a straight digital transfer so no better. Unfortunately my copy has a flaw on side D.

Soda’s 1996 MTV Unplugged record is getting reissued next month (well, first time issue on vinyl)... maybe best MTV Unplugged performance?

My favorite so called Brit pop band although the term Brit pop in this case seems stupid..they are straight up rock

Brit pop to me is more like Suede or Pulp (the best Brit pop band) not these guys or Oasis

This really is a fantastic album, the Yule ones are some of my favorites
I didn't even know until 20 years of enjoying this album that he sang lead on any, I thought he was bass and did backing vocals
The fully loaded edition is so worth it IMO. the different renderings of the same songs are great and the extras could make a full release

I was listening to Viagra Boys last night... interesting
love the tag line on the GQ article
Sweden’s new punk-rock hell-raisers have made their name skewering toxic masculinity, die-hard sports fans, right-wing fanatics—and themselves.

Personally think that it's high time that die-hard sports fans are skewered!

The video for Sports is pretty great though. Singer gets nailed by a tennis ball during a match.

Kills me the original Express didn’t include either Holiday on the moon (in the running for greatest b side ever?) or Ball of confusion

Thanks by the way...just got a surprise record in the mail

Good thing I actually own both the Kundalini Express (w-Holiday on the moon) and Ball of confusion 12 inch records

Oh yah those 12” records are key... Holiday on the moon never sounded so good.. on the I guess remastered box set the guitar just doesn’t come in as strong..doesn’t have the same bite as I remember from the express cd you had or the 12”

Black Pumas debut

Gotta give props to their PR team as their song "Colours" is everywhere... don't get me wrong Colours is a fantastic song, it's just everywhere... it was fun getting to see them on the inauguration last night and they were turning heads to be sure... the album is definitely one of the best i've heard in the last two years.

Who do you guys think is the better artist, Internet Money, or Tom Waits?

My wife says the former, I say the latter. She says Tom Waits is someone that "people say they, mostly stupid middle aged white men, like because they think it makes them look cool."

That said, I don't even think Internet Money is a single act/artist.

You must be one of those out of touch middle class white guys. Consider yourself schooled.

Internet Money is a Los Angeles-based music production collective and label founded by Taz Taylor. Members of the collective have produced for some of rap’s biggest names, including Drake, Juice WRLD, Trippie Redd, Lil Uzi Vert, XXXTENTACION, and many more.

The production members also run a YouTube channel by the same name, Internet Money, where they post beat-making videos, tracks, and general tips.

In October 2019, Internet Money signed a joint venture deal with TenThousand Projects, which now releases music for all of Internet Money’s artists. The first song released under this deal was “Somebody” with Lil Tecca and A Boogie wit da Hoodie, released October 11, 2019.

I *think* "Internet Money" is a collective of producers who have worked with a number of artists, including those listed. But the artists themselves (e.g. Drake) are not part of the collective, just the producers. Hence, I find it a bit confusing when my wife refers to "my favorite song of the year was by Internet Money," because we typically refer to the artist, not the collective of producers, when referring to who "did" the song.

I think this was the first compilation of Tubby..out in 89 shortly after his tragic death that year ... this was put together by Steve Barrow (spurred by Tubby’s death?) who a decade later would do so much to disseminate King Tubby’s work via the Blood and Fire reggae reissue label; the first label to attempt to put out virtually unobtainable reggae classics with a focus on dub (precursor to the dance remix) and DJ reggae (precursor to hip hop) with high quality sound and artwork... traditionally being from Jamaica this music has been issued in very limited garbage pressings often without artwork or credits..where song titles were included they were usually wrong! Over time the music was virtually disappearing from circulation

I don’t know but I think arguments could be made that Tubby and Jamaicans where way ahead of everyone else in terms of production techniques in the 1970s... this is different than simply saying Jamaican music rocks or something...I mean yes the songs were there...but that they were so ahead in terms of use of the studio in music - given the fact they were flat broke and had such a limited potential market- is remarkable

You can listen to Thievery Corporation stuff from 2000 and be like “Holy shit this sounds lifted almost to a fault from King Tubby’s mixing of Yabby You 25 years earlier!” That’s not an indictment of Thievery but a credit to Tubby.. it’s hard to be 25 years ahead of trends! Tubby died virtually unknown and there are but a few pictures I keep seeing recycled of the guy over and over again on countless reissues of his work...usually a nondescript middle age largely bald dude wearing a cheap crown...it’s almost bizarre

Barrow sums it up in the last paragraph of the liner notes to the compilation

I had to buy this even though not mint as it’s the only time I ever even seen it ...Curtis Mayfield had left the impressions by this point but still put this out on his label, wrote songs on it and produced it..from 1972... this is obscure outside of Chicago

To give some context on Mayfield’s label Curtom this is 8012 with Curtis Live being 8010 and Superfly soundtrack being 8014.... Curtis was just unstoppable around this time!!!

Ennio just keeps coming up as a touchstone for so many of my favorite musicians... apparently the soundtrack for Once upon a time in America was a huge influence on the Pogues... there is a track on Once Upon a time in the West that really has a New Order flavor

Soundtracks just aren’t my bag but I have always liked a few of his.. this one came out under different names depending on the country

Giu la testa= Italy
Duck you sucker=USA
Or as pictured in France

Really reminds me of the High Llamas and Stereolab

My favorite soundtrack of his may be for Almodovar’s Tie me up time me down.I always thought the fact the soundtrack didn’t include the song they sing at the end (not an Ennio song) was a grave oversight and just discovered it’s coming out in a new edition with the missing song

It is. And it’s also in the heart of the most soul-crushing, endemic poverty any racial resentment you will ever experience. I hated living there but I am thankful that I did so at an age where I could process the connections between poverty, white resentment, and political views that continue to ring true today. And remember, I lived there when it was, maybe, the most Democratic voting state in the country. Robert Byrd era.

No. I’ve addressed this before. My father worked for universities for much of my formative years. Particularly for universities with agronomy or soil science programs and “test plots”. We moved around a great deal, WV, AZ, CO, et al being destinations. We were not poor in WV but good lord everyone else was.

I sold off most of my Dead collection on cd

This set - to me- remains fascinating

That point when they are introducing Workingmans dead tunes into the set and their fans are largely acid burnouts and casualties..they can’t be playing for more than 500 folks... it was make or break time

The first cd has some very early performances of tunes like Dire Wolf, Casey Jones, Cumberland Blues (Worst version ever?)

Pigpen is still king but barely

The second set (cd 2 and 3) is a crowd pleasing acid jam fest almost apologetically making amends for set one with all the horrible new short countrified tunes

This is the transition point between acid psych dead and two of the greatest American country folk albums ever cut : WD and American Beauty

They all sound so young singing...Garcia a kid..

It’s amazing how much Wailers music pre-Island exists... dozens of CDs... virtually unheard by most people... many earlier versions of classics but also tracks that were not recut

Finally it’s here

Been wanting this since it’s release more than 12 years ago but always put off by price tag..it was always too expensive never mind I spend a ton of money on music

Reading the James Fearnley Pogues bio pushed me to get it...that and fact I will be dead soon

Managed to get it on eBay for $43 all in

This groups together about five packed CDs of rarities, soundtrack work, demos and live tracks...over 100 songs

Includes three demos for Fairytale in NY

In his prime -which only lasted a few years - Shane MacGowan was one of the greater lyricists of his day...on a par with anybody

Sadly he was not able to remain a functional alcoholic... a cautionary tale... also you wonder how much of his trouble stems from smoking.. he was able to stand and “sing” at his last 930 shows but needed oxygen between songs

He has been an invalid for at least a decade...very sad

It beats dying like Strummer / maybe- but doesn’t cut much of a romantic figure

http://shanemacgowan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/The-Ivors-Inspiration-Award-Shane-Macgowan-Mark-Allan-small-3.jpg

Quantic Presenta Flowering Inferno - 1000 Watts

one of my favorite dub albums includes a track with U-Roy

https://quanticmusic.bandcamp.com/album/1000-watts

The third album from the tropical dub-infused Quantic Presenta Flowering Inferno project, ‘1000 Watts’ sees musical explorer Will “Quantic” Holland making a more concerted foray into pure reggae-roots territory. Recorded direct to tape, the LP draws together a set of classic style rhythms for the dancefloor, and for this outing Holland enlisted the most prestigious roll-call of guest performers yet. Alongside U-Roy and Alice Russell, the featured artists include popular reggae singers Hollie Cook and Christopher Ellis; the late, great keyboard maestro Ikey Owens (whose tragic 2014 passing followed a career working with everyone from Run The Jewels to The Mars Volta to Jack White); and legendary Jamaican drummer Santa Davis, known for his work with the likes of Bob Marley and The Aggravators.

Post by: ye-ole-hatch ıll|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|̲̅̅=̲̅̅|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|llıl on February 23, 2021, 05:56:13 pm

yeah, was the beginning of the end of his epic run of releases, Blue Jean is a great song tho and didn't realize all the Iggy songs and involvement

Have you heard the demos?

As well as acknowledging that Tonight was not one of his stronger efforts, Bowie would later distance himself from his 1984–1987 period
In 1989 when working with Tin Machine, he described both Tonight and Never Let Me Down as "great material that got simmered down to product level. I really should have not done it quite so studio-ly. I think some of it was a waste of really good songs. You should hear the demos from those two albums. It's night and day by comparison with the finished tracks. There's stuff that I could really kick myself about. When I listen to those demos it's, 'How did it turn out like that?' You should hear "Loving the Alien" on demo. It's wonderful on demo. I promise you! (laughs). But on the album, it's not as wonderful."

i'm gonna be that guy so.. actually she's Japanese but living in England... but yes she's does meld many stylies easily.. no an expert on JPOP, but the R&B and club beats would be inline with the KPOP style.

she's in the news today because due to her protest they changed the rules of eligibility of the BRIT Awards and Mercury Prize.

“Starting this year, artists (like me) will be eligible for nominations even without British citizenship. The rules have been broadened to include those who have been a resident of the U.K. for five years.

The Beatles - 1

I was reading an oral biography of the Beatles

The early years until the first couple of recording sessions are so interesting to me.. Stu Sutcliffe, Hamburg . Pete Best.Brian Epstein entering pic and turning them from black leather rough boys to suit clad nice guys,etc

I want more so I bought the acclaimed Lewisohn book (first of three expected volumes...takes you through 1962)... I bought the abridged 800 page one.. waiting on it

I just can’t justify spending $150 on the 1700 page unabridged version...1700 pages might be too much

Many years ago I read Phillip Norman’s Shout which is good..gave me the general idea... same as now the part I found fascinating was the early years..the origin story of the phenomenon

Some good little gems in the next 20 years, but doesn't grab me like the 90s output
obviously a little more mature and going a different direction, but don't think that would have made me as big of a fan as I am if I only had his last two decades of output

Beatles Anthology 1 cd 1

I got to admit when I listened to these discs in the 90s I didn’t know much about music or the Beatles

I always felt Pete Best was extremely wronged...I still do... the way he got fucked over is just way wrong

I could go into details but read any good Beatles bio and I challenge you to think otherwise

It’s nice though that because he is on a few tracks on this anthology when it came out he made a real nice chunk of change.. I actually saw Pete at Ramshead Annapolis, met him and he signed my LP version of the Anthology

But my god listening to the outtake of Love me do on the initial Beatles recording session and yes it WAS a new song and YES George Martin used Alan White (sic) on the Beatles version that was eventually released and relegated new hire Ringo to tambourine

But on the original version with Pete Best..man he is atrocious.. listen to it.. it’s so bad!! He just can’t keep the beat
Of course that was his last session with the Beatles
Eye opening

I even have evidence of how critical he is
personal anecdote of actually meeting him
even more name dropping
man this guy sucks, I can't believe the guy in the recording room wasted tape

Well they had no problem using him for years...his mom ran a little club in the basement - the Casbah and basically that was their first big gig... Pete was also the handsome one that helped create a bit of a following..

He schlepped all the Hamburg dates..all the cavern club dates...

The minute they sign to EMI they dump him..George Martin -his words- thought they would be fine with Best..

But wait they don’t even tell him personally but have Brian Epstein do it

That’s pretty lame

Apologies. I understood - perhaps incorrectly - that he was not a particularly good drummer. Then again they liked having Stu in the band and he couldn’t play a lick.

Agree the way they dumped him was kinda lame. Anyone would hate to be in that position but he handled it as gracefully as one could hope for.

I knew most of this, but I didn't know that he was a horrible drummer and you can even hear it on the recording
Seems to me they made the right choice even though they went about it kinda lame
I can't imagine in those early days they had any idea what was to come, so decisions like that didn't seem that monumental

I don't care what you do with your money... but for a forum so focused on being broke, saving money, etc. A Spotify subscription seems like an easy way to save $$$.

umm absolutely not sir, but thanks for asking
I think it's more about ribbing you than actually caring if you stream

Personally, even though I am (cashflo)broke, I bought Vinyl and Bandcamp from a bunch of artists in the last few months
I've bought more Vinyl and Bandcamp purchases than the whole decade before that
The vinyl rarely gets used and the bandcamp never, but feel like I'm getting a few coins in the pockets of the artists
much more than just streaming and definitely more than if I bought it used

The # of shows and bands I've supported seeing live because of Spotify outweighs any $$$ they would've made off me if I purchased their cd (which I never would've anyway).

And me saying I'm better than you is definitely putting words in my mouth. I'm only better than sidebudget.

Also, I'd be willing to bet my sound system sounds as good streaming music than a CD.

Post by: hutch on March 18, 2021, 06:16:19 pm

It does support Neil...he gets some money from the sale.. a lot more than from someone streaming. I can’t support the artist while shopping around for the best price? As long as I am paying I think I am doing my part..

I have no idea if his own store - apparently ran by his record company although unclear- gives him a bigger cut or not. Maybe he has people run it for him.. I would guess it does... but that doesn’t make me a bad person for buying it somewhere else..I am still buying it... factor in shipping and my guess is buying it from Neil would mean $25

But the issue of supporting artists is one of many I have with streaming some of which I listed.. it’s not all about that.. did you read what I wrote?

Streaming is not something I enjoy.. that’s the main issue...

My guess is you guys are trying to wind me up.. hope you are enjoying it!

Over the past year or so the reallocation of my entertainment, gas, travel, and haircut budgets have been at least partially deployed into buying and collecting the Vinyl mostly directly from the bands or on BandCamp Fridays; as well as thrifting/estate saling/auction acquiring the used records and CDs, and I stream the bejesus out of Apple Music and Bandcamp on the regular whilst buying concert posters and t-shirts, and this is what makes me relatively "broke," sometimes happy, and also slightly a better person than Yada. :D

but I guess streamers jump on the fact I believe streaming doesn’t give artists a fair shake....all this rationalization...

Don't think that comment was ever made by anyone (except maybe by the CEO of spotify)

But how much do you think an artist get's from your 1 cd purchase? I don't think it's more than $1 and zero if it's bought used

when I buy a concert tix and merch, I'd say the artist probably gets $10, maybe more...maybe less...but of course, they had to work pretty hard for that $10

but even if the 15 people on this board bought 15 cds a month, still wouldn't even come close to the entire market/consumption has totally changed and artist have to figure out how to pry those greenbacks from your hands in new innovative ways...hopefully cutting out as many middlemen who grifted off that $15 CD purchase
I would think that there are a lot of 60s/70s/80s artists are making way more in the steaming economy than they would have if people were going to the record shop or they had to tour...but I don't have any stats to back that up

I thought estate sales were super competitive. Folks regularly arrive early and offer cash for the entire lot. Not so?

Record shows have largely been a waste for me but then I’m not the guy who shows up with a massive list (or nothing) in mind. I just don’t have the space to pick up random lps in bulk on the regular.

I have never seen an estate sale that advertised records, completely out of records with an early buy out. They can be competitive, but I am not, so I show up late into the 1st day or even on the Sunday for 1/2 price.

Best I have done is this

Hutch - if you go late in the day, you can do it and be anti-social! I used to go a lot, but with Covid, maybe I have been to 5 in the past year.

I'm no expert, but estate sales are typically, "everything must go" and garage sales are usually whatever they have in their drive way/garage.

garage sales, the people put insane values on sentimental things

Ok those are good points!

These days with an 11 and 8 year old I am lucky to have time to go to the record store.. am not saying I do that much with them - hardly- but someone has to be around to make sure they are ok

But I know if I am whining about the increasing cost of buying used records and can’t or won’t go estate sale shopping where they cost less well that’s my own damn fault...

So am back to where I started which is I am probably done buying much used vinyl...

If anything I am beginning to let go of some of my records.

The late 1970-early 1971 Neil Young solo acoustic tour is awesome .. here we find Neil performing songs that would be recorded for Harvest...one track would eventually land on On the Beach..songs from After the Gold Rush... the CSNY single Ohio..

I think this is the final show from that tour

Obviously Massey Hall is the best known performance from this tour..and now Young Shakespeare is coming out (today)... he should just put out the entire tour

This particular show I have a bootleg of.. maybe the best known Neil bootleg? I am sure one day Neil will release it officially ...the bootleg like most acoustic solo shows recorded in winter has a lot of coughing from audience... still a must hear

No profits were given to Neil in the listening of this album.

Just two months after the release of his seminal album After The Gold Rush, Neil Young played a solo show at The Shakespeare Theater, Stratford, CT on January 22 1971. The show was filmed and recorded, and the concert shown on German TV later in 1971. In 2020, while Neil and his team were reviewing his Archive for future projects, Neil re-visited the 16mm film and audio recording of this show that had been preserved in the Archive for almost 50 years. Piecing together the tapes and footage, Neil realized that he had the full concert – the film of which is the earliest live footage of Neil performing that is known to exist. Neil has written on NYA that this show is“superior to our beloved “Massey Hall”. A more calm performance, without the celebratory atmosphere of Massey Hall, captured live on 16mm. “Young Shakespeare” is a very special event. To my fans, I say this is the best ever.” As an insight into Neil’s prolific song writing at the time, the concert features two songs from the recently released After The Gold Rush but four songs from the classic Harvest album that was still over a year away from being released. The wonderful set list also includes acoustic renditions of favorites such as “Ohio”, “Cowgirl In the Sand”, “Helpless”, “Down By The River” and “Sugar Mountain”. The ancient analog tapes have been lovingly restored – resulting in (as Neil says on NYA) “one of the most pure sounding acoustic performances we have in the Archive”. This beautiful concert is being released on LP and CD, plus a deluxe boxed edition that includes both LP and CD and, for the first time ever, a DVD of the concert. Young Shakespeare is being released almost exactly 50 years after the original performance.

I have heard one song and I concur. I think the vocals are supposed to be like that?

Not a big fan of their next to last album but maybe one day it will be my favorite?

It’s like their blues rock album..totally different vibe

New Rob Zombie is good. No way epic or ground baking (not breaking but baking). It does sound like previous stuff, but it's well done . . . so there's that on your plate.

Los Fabulosos Cadillacs - Vasos Vacios

A mish mash of hits and five re-recorded early songs... mainly designed to break them in Latin America and it worked.. I just like the original more ska ( they came up imitating two tone) earlier stuff than the more punked up and Latino stuff... but it’s still pretty killer..anyways plenty of the original stuff in the second half of the album..it’s 17 songs so.. Vasos Vacios with Celia Cruz is unbelievable..I think a human being is lucky to write ONE such great song...a fully formed classic.. a nice cover of the Clash’s Revolution Rock.. the Clash were a big influence in Argentina

I saw them once in the late 90s at Club Five in DuPont.... my friend Dan who was bartending there got me the set list (unprompted as I wasn’t collecting them then) which I treasure... seeing them at such a small place was an unbelievable privilege... Matador , featured in Grosse Point Blank, is the one song Americans might know if any... what a barn burner.. it was one of only two previously unreleased songs on the album

I don't understand why but there are certain albums out there that just affect me and make me feel like a different human being living in a different reality of emotions that come on almost like a drug of positive mental playtime.

The first 3 albums by The Polyphonic Spree / Pink Floyd The Wall / and every song every recorded by The Strokes are examples of such.

And it really sucks when those bands in question really let you down with a new album.

I had never heard this in mono..one of my favorites.. it benefits from different mono mix..after having listened to the regular stereo mix hundreds of times it’s a bit strange..generally mono mixes don’t do much for me but with one of my favorites it’s cool to hear

Had to listen to it a couple of times before I realized it still has the heart and soul of Dinosaur, just from a much older mature point of view now.

Still rocks, still has a killer Lou song, still smiles of J guitar legendness, still reeks of that long hair Kurt Vile.

Appropriate addition to the Dinosaur 🦕 Jr collection.

sorry it was the Twice Removed anniversary tour where they played the album in full... that's what they have been doing mainly, which is why the Navy Blues anniversary tour would be of interest. i always find that the drummers songs are a bit of drag...

Right after DSOTM armed with cash David Gilmour set up a studio in his home..he heard a band he liked at a friend’s wedding , jammed with them, became friends and offered them some free studio time

Ended up producing album, got them a record contract, played on album...decades later got them the rights to their long forgotten music

Be like David Gilmour

from what I can gather the Sunday's singer and guitar player have become intensely private people who are raising their children together.... if Wikipedia is be trusted they continue to work on music, which will probably never be heard by the public. which is shame because their albums are always worth a revisit on a regular basis.

Durand Jones & The Indications - Witchoo

this should put to ease any concerns about Aaron Frazers involvement with the band... First single from the forthcoming album and he's out doing lead vocals on it... and it's a nice little groover... i suspect we will get some of his solo stuff in the bands set as well.. gonna move that solo merch.

I always go back to this one..the percussionist from buena vista had the least heralded buena vista solo project.. I think it didn’t help that he keeled over after it came out

Anyways it’s got flaws but i obviously find something in it... it’s at times jazzy and modern (turntablist)...

but, he was only 45 when he died of a heart attack (https://www.nytimes.com/2006/08/17/arts/17diaz.html) So not one of the old guys from BVSC
also looks like he was only a part of the touring group, was not on the album or in the movie

isn't even listed as a 'solo' album from the BVSC

actually just read that pretty much played on all the solo BVSC releases

he played on albums by Afro-Cuban All Stars, Omara Portuondo, Ruben Gonzalez, Ibrahim Ferrer and others.

I did catch that tour (was it the kennedy center or the lyric?) and remember a youngish congo player pretty much going nuts the whole show while the rest of the band was fairly mellow

The Black Keys doing the North Mississippi Allstars doing Mississippi blues otherwise known as Hill Country Blues... basically the music of RL Burnside, Junior Kimbrough, etc

Again going back to what I was writing last week Jon Spencer Blues Explosion literally traveled down south 25 years ago to a shack to record with RL Burnside and couldn’t catch a break with critics who insisted on telling us it was all a joke and schtick? Why? It was the most authentic it could possibly be.. A great album

https://www.discogs.com/RL-Burnside-A-Ass-Pocket-Of-Whiskey/master/145434

I have a soft spot for this kind of music so it’s working for me

Dan Auerbach’s voice sounds so much like Paul Rodgers from Free/Bad Company it can be disconcerting but I love Paul Rodgers so again it works for me.. I think he should have gargled some gasoline before singing.. sounds a bit too smooth.. but maybe the idea is to bring this music to the mainstream

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: kosmo vinyl on May 24, 2021, 08:29:06 am

I gave the new Black Keys a listen and it was ok, nothing I would need to own or give repeat listens to. Sounding like a broken record, think I'll stick with Dan's production output and am enjoying the Robert Finley - Sharecroppers Son album just out.

What another amazing album... Starsky, what are your long form thoughts on the rhythm section?

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on May 25, 2021, 09:34:02 am

Well the musicians are all top knotch... you can’t argue with Sly and Robbie or Mick Taylor or Knopfler..

But for me this album doesn’t work well due to the beginnings of 80s production and I don’t listen to it.. it sucks when you have the songs and the musicians and it doesn’t work...

Union Sundown is a personal favorite... Jokerman, License, Seeetheart..all great

I think there was an amazing album to be made from these songs and others from these sessions like Blind Willie Mctell (how do you leave that out?).. I just don’t think they got there

Fortunately the outtakes have circulated for years as “Rough Cuts” and that’s a great tape!

Word is the new Bootleg Series 16 will focus on these sessions...it will be essential

Bob brought the songs..they just didn’t dress them up right

I prefer this approach

The Division Bell tour was my second concert ever. We camped out to get seats at RFK.

The show changed my life and hooked me into what a concert can do for a person. Plus, as a Floyd devotee, I was shocked at that time how great The Division Bell was as "new Pink Floyd" material.

But what do I know, I'm in love with WSP.

Many people love the Division Bell...and I know the concerts were great.. I would have loved it but in 1994 I was into the very opposite kind of music: indie rock and lofi.

I just can’t get into the album...the lyrics are so schlocky but maybe one day I will

Obviously I wish I had seen Floyd live... that 1994 show and there were two shows in DC - was pretty much my only chance

It would seem like a good idea, though they played the same exact set every night.

And I lost my car on night 3 and had to walk around the cap center multiple times to find it. I basically wound up waiting until everyone else had left, and my car was the only one still there.

Regarding Pink Floyd

Most interesting David Gilmour interview, along with his wife Polly Samson, where he responds without addressing him by name to Roger Waters horrid post of last week regarding the Animals 5.1 mix reissue or he responds to the issues they are having (interview conducted before Waters’ Facebook post) when I was young I was “team Waters” all the way but the years have taught me how wrong I was.... Roger Waters is a very damaged individual

McCoy Tyner - Time for Tyner

This dude had a very good ratio of excellent to poor records... I don’t think he cut many bad ones

This is a live concert tribute to his old band mate Coltrane... Bobby Hutcherson is fantastic as usual on vibes..

I saw Tyner in college park in the 2000s...he was still totally sharp.. still pushing the envelope and challenging the listener

I missed Hutcherson when he played the Roslyn festival one year (or was it canceled?)... that was really too bad...Idle Moments is credited as a Grant Green recording but it’s really Hutch’s show...one of the gateway jazz albums for me

Now they are both gone

Honestly, it’s probably Billie Eilish if secondary market prices are used as a metric.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on June 10, 2021, 07:16:20 pm

Yes that’s always been my view

Just curious if anyone sees it differently

All three shows were atypical

Foo Fighters cause it was a part of the whole opening over two days including the soft opening

Lords couldn’t play Verizon cause it was booked...she cracked me up all night talking about how great it was to play a small club!

And Billie Eillish blew up after tickets went on sale...saw some people get burned who bought tickets on secondary market...some heartbreak

Lizzo is another one the anthem booked right before they exploded.

NIN and Beck were pretty good gets too. Those LCD SS reunion shows right after it opened felt huge too

I’d probably rank like:

1 Billie Eilish
2 Florence and the Machine
3 Lorde/RTJ
4 Lizzo
5 Foo Fighters
6 NIN
7 LCD SS
8 Beck

Probably forgetting something big.

Referring to the Lizzo headlining shows.

So I was kind of going by the standard "did this show sell out super quickly and were secondary market tickets also super pricey week-of". I cannot speak to whether or not that was the case for either of these, so I'll cede to you on that.

F+tM sell out large amphitheaters and headline festivals regularly. My wife is a huge fan and $100 face tickets were like $250 the week of. It was legitimately hard to get into you.
Non-acoustic Beck is still a "Merriweather" type act, I think. I did put it in last place on my list, though, as I agree its probably the softest of my picks. New Order might be ahead of that.

Willie & Sturgil

New Order is a good pull for towards the bottom of the list. People were definitely scrounging around for last minute entry to that one.

Willie & Sturgill, similar to Space's entries, was just not a show I am familiar enough with to say what the buzz around it was.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on June 11, 2021, 09:08:27 am

The Willie show was moved from jiffy lube? It was fully seated... I don’t think it was sold out

There is a difference between shows that should be huge and are huge based on name and shows that actually transcend regular concert goers and become mass events where everyone wants to be there and you can’t get a ticket... I think secondary market prices is a good gauge

For Lorde I remember people camped out overnight at the box office!

The Killers was also a big one...he played arenas on that tour except DC I think...

well I feel like they made it really difficult to transfer tickets
I don't even think the second show sold out
I remember seeing goth kids lined up over 24 hours in advance at the wharf for those tix

but Just looked at the itereny and it was mostly Anthem sized venues, but multiple dates
I feel like face was like $125 too (am I imagining that?)

So based on how that tour went, I guess it wasn't that big of a get

Post by: Starsky on June 11, 2021, 12:27:41 pm

That lorde song

Co-write credits have been given for less but only Antonoff and Lorde get credited here..

For example on the Strokes last one there were a couple of co-write credits given to Billy Idol and Psychedelic Furs which seemed a little unnecessary

The song Solar Power itself seems kind of boring

I am not sure Primal Scream would win their case though...

I never really warmed up to the Pretenders when these songs came out
I didn't hate them, but wouldn't be caught dead putting them on a mix tape

Steve Jones mentioned how Chrissy was there at ground zero and kinda got laughed off at the time for not being that engaging/talented when she tried to be in some of the up and coming bands
then he says, but who got the last fucking laugh as she ended up being one of the most successful of that early crew

The Paid In Full(Seven Minutes of Madness) remix done by Coldcut is the more famous version of the Eric B. and Rakim's stone cold classic

but I came across this other remix today Paid In Full (Derek B's Urban Respray Version) that has both a John Cougar and Chuck Brown sample... probably the only time they were sampled in track together..

Dang...I grew up on LI listening to them and do remember someone playing that version and haven't heard that in over 35 years
the coldcut version is still the penultimate song to get the crowd grooving hard, without a doubt...

If its your own pic of the album cover, open an imgur account and upload to imgur, and then right click on the image and copy image address, and then paste into an image block using the mona lisa icon above, left.

If an image from the internet, just right click on the image, and then paste into an image block as above.

Add Tropical Brainstorm and that’s all I really need although there are other things not to mention her backing vocals on tons of seminal 80s tracks

My favorite backing vocalist ever and a great lead vocalist in her own right… something about her singing made me fall in love with her

my initial reaction is the material isn't as strong as her early Stiff singles or subsequent records, but well worth listening as in typical Kirsty fashion she easily navigates genres... country, folk, 60s girl group, hot jazz

in the first tag img] you can add width=500 (or what ever size you want)

like img width=500]
sometimes images are huge and this helps normalize it

I was burnt out on Al Green but glad I found some in a box full of records I had stored away. This shit is so good. It is hard to find these records in good shape. People played them!

The influence of Al Green -and more importantly his band and producer/arranger Willie Mitchell- on reggae deserves a good essay…

Found Ry Cooder’s debut - white label promo- in another box

You can sort of hear what Ry is talking about when he insists the Stones ripped him off around this time (1970-71)

Thing is the Stones ripped off a lot of people around the same time… Gram Parsons without doubt… but the Stones put it all together in the magic package…

I thought her Wish You Were Here* on SNL was great and timely

*obviously not an American band

Mediocre cover band with one trick - vibrato. Excessive vibrato. I'm a little over it.

The music video for ‘Solar Power’, the title track, features Lorde smoking what looks like a bong made from a fennel plant. She later confirmed this to NZ Herald, saying, “Yes I am. I took your standard apple bong and made it a bit more chic, a bit more me. I’m sure if you hit it for long enough the fennel would begin to roast.

Reefer songs were fairly common in the first half of the 20th century.. the record label Stash has like 6-7 LPs chock full of them…this collects a few of them

I think it became more taboo to sing about reefer post WWII

Toad the Wet Sprocket - Pale

it's national vinyl day and the band said show us your vinyl and of course i had to post a picture of my signed copy of this one.. i had put in the sleeve a flyer with scribbled notes about the show... i was able to decipher that this was when TTWS was on tour with Michael Penn in 1989 and i was trying to capture the Penn's setlist... the hit was "No Myth" and DJ Bonebreak was in Penn's touring band at the time...

Louis Prima and the Witnesses (Keely Smith)

The two cd ultra-lounge compilation that was released in the mid 90s I believe to cash in on Brian Setzers’s cover of Jump jive and wail when you had that brief lounge music revival

Tacky cover cartoon of Louis and Keely apparently grilling at a bbq notwithstanding (what is lounge about that?) this compilation smokes from first to last over two and a half hours!

Some of my favorite music and I think an under recognized bit of rock and roll…always sort of marginalized to the Sinatra/Nat King Cole section of the record store with which it often has nothing in common other than time period…more than vocal jazz this is r&b and rock and roll married with New Orleans music and jazz…a beautiful melting pot..at times ecstatic joyous music…oh and Prima was a jiver…almost a pre-rapper making up hilarious improv lines and introducing them in the middle of classic songs..listen to him turn Just one of those things inside out and upside down!

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Z22cDkABFsM

Of course Prima - largely forgotten-is the man who perfected the Vegas lounge act which wasn’t just about music but also comedy…

Prima deserves a good biography

Cd 2 of Andres Calamaro’s Honestidad Brutal

https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWVo2tank-zyo3B98QdcQpDdGyJYSH8vk

My favorite album for almost 25 years -all 37 or 38 songs- alternating repeatedly with its 5 cd follow up El Salmon which has been my favorite since 2017… a 101 song absolutely crazy masterpiece

I get burnt out on stuff though so I am thankful for having misplaced cd for a year

Recently in Spain for RSD a few weeks ago they put out a record with half of these songs recorded in demo form in my neighborhood in Buenos Aires: Palermo. I picked up three copies and you know international shipping ain’t cheap.

I can’t believe he is turning 60 on the 22nd… Meeting Andres and getting to chat a bit about ten years ago after his show at Irving Plaza was a treat…I will always remember talking about how the Nobel Academy and Bob Dylan - a mutual touchstone who he has opened for many times- would he win? we both knew he would get it eventually and a few years later he did..People always criticize social media but a few weeks after meeting I was explaining how baseball worked over twitter to him back in Argentina watching..

The years are going too fast now…way way too fast… and this damn covid feels like it’s both slowing and accelerating things

Lavoe is one of the great singers. Well worth checking out if you have any interest in salsa and can handle non English lyrics. But you wouldn’t start here…I would recommend a compilation of his work with Willie Colon if you can find one…

His version of Stardust is one of the best -sorry for redundancy- of one of the very best American songs…. Up there with Nat King Cole

it's a board trope to say Bryan Adams, when the post is about Ryan Adams...that is where I was going

One of the reasons I got into record collecting was that back in the day -late 90s early 2000s - stuff on cd was expensive, a lot of the old stuff was either not on CDs or transferred haphazardly and nobody seemed to want the records which looked great, represented the original intention/vision of the artist for release, sounded great etc. It allowed me to listen to all kinds of music cheaply and discover entire new genres… growing up today I would just stream or listen to stuff on YouTube I suppose…

It still happens that I find and discover something new to me and cool but far less often

Like today I went to the record store and found this LP for a buck..anyways what jumped up at me was the name Christlieb cause he played sax on a ton of Tom Waits 70s stuff…including my current favorite by Tom Nighthawks at the Diner… so I was like what the heck… when I got home I saw there was a song - Rapunzel- that I had never heard off written by Walter Becker and Donald Fagen of Steely Dan (pretty much my current favorite band)…then I noticed the entire album was produced by them! Score… apparently Christlieb played the legendary saxophone solo on Deacon Blues and a few months later Fagen and Becker returned the favor by producing this album… it’s straight ahead jazz… Warner Brothers wasn’t even releasing new jazz in 1978 but they did this time.. obviously the Dan was hot having just put out the Aja album so Warner made an exception

Ennio Morricone is someone I will alwaypick up for cheap

Soundtracks usually bore me but ever since hearing his stuff on the Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns and then his brilliant work on Almodovar’s Átame, I always pick him up

A few years ago I was reading Bernard Sumner’s autobiography where he goes on about how much Ennio’s work meant to him - I had never realized Blue Monday was influenced by Ennio but now I can’t not hear it… then I was reading that autobiography by one of the Pogues and he goes on about in their early days they would drive around listening to Ennio’s soundtrack all tour long..

Anyways I put this on and I swear to god New Order’s Elegía definitely got something from the music to the title song (sung by Baez)…really reminds me of it

I paid $3 but note old $0.99 sticker from 6-14 and based on typesetting fairly confident this was purchased from the dollar bin at Som Records on 14th Street… I don’t get out there much but when I lived off of 14th those dollar bins where the best in town..not even close…made me regret moving

Other than Dizzy’s Afro-Cuban stuff which arguably has a lot to do with guys like Machito and Chico O’Farrill- and of course his bebop work with Charlie Parker and on his own- his stuff from the late 50s on is just not very appreciated..the records are a dime a dozen… I can’t think of one I or most people really value…

I think this hurts his reputation although he is considered one of the bebop pioneers and respected

I mean just compare his evolution to his successor in Parker’s quintet, Miles. Davis reinvented himself many times…kept pushing limits and exploring. Dizzy tread much more conservative ground. It’s not really Gillespie’s fault that his career went on so long from one boring record to the next…he put in his 15 years of creativity… Louis Armstrong is sort of the same….very appreciated for his 1920s-1930s stuff and then nothing (although I like some of his stuff)

Maybe there was also a bit of backlash against Armstrong and Gillespie got being considered too willing to smile for white people and not doing enough for black people… Satchmo was definitely considered an Uncle Tom… I think Miles couldn’t stand that about him…

Guys like Ellington that are able to find popular acceptance over decades are rare but even he recorded a lot of records that do nothing for most people

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on August 27, 2021, 05:09:47 pm

And I don’t think Dizzy is whitebread on those early bebop masterpieces

But we have to admit that Dizzy did write a lot of early bebop novelty type numbers like Salt Peanuts, right?

It’s hard for those funny bebop tunes to connect across multiple generations

Whereas Bird wailing away on the changes to the harmonic scale (note: not sure if this is what he did cause I don’t get it) of Gershwin’s I got rhythm to come up with seven different bebop masterpieces seems pretty out there

I guess I was thinking of something like He beeped when he shoulda bopped

In a way he was the face/public image of be bop

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: kosmo vinyl on August 29, 2021, 12:44:52 pm

With the passing of Charlie Parker, Dizzy probably was the public face of BeBop, but you also had Dexter Gordon, Bud Powell and Monk…

My dad having grown up listening to Big Band was a big fan of BeBop in particular the Four Brothers out of Woody Herman’s band. The best known of which were Stan Getz and Zoot Sims.

And for further proof of dad’s coolness, he at one point was driving around Columbus a young Roland Kirk better known as Rashsaan Roland Kirk

One of my absolute favorites… I used to have a fantastic copy but it disappeared probably stolen from person I left my records with

After 20 years bought one on discogs…I am a pig in shit…I just didn’t want a reissue

Yes it was over graded but it plays great mainly… with an Argentine seller I was worried it would be trashed

You think the Specials were an influence on early fabulosos Cadillacs before they got all into Latin American music? This came out in 1987 when I did about six months in an actual Argentine high school and this was one of the records..produced by Andres Calamaro (my favorite musician)

been listening to this on repeat all day and love it
just found out there is video footage and they are showing it thru prime on the coda collection (?!)
https://codacollection.co/

..what is weird is Disney was responsible for uncovering this

https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/9622934/bob-marley-wailers-capitol-session-73-lost-footage/

1973 was quite a year for bob
interesting how it all came together

The Wailers were booked for 17 dates opening for Sly and The Family Stone beginning in October 1973, but they only performed on four shows before they were fired because they didn't connect with Sly's audience. Stranded in Las Vegas, The Wailers called Jamaican attorney Gus Brown who brought them to San Francisco, where they performed a pair of shows before reaching out to Cordell and traveling to Los Angeles.
The Wailers closed-door shoot at L.A.'s Capitol Tower took place on Oct. 24, 1973

So it's live, ~~but no audience~~ small invited audience
probably why it sounds soo good

Must have been a real let down to get dropped by Sly on a big US tour, but in the end, didn't seem to change the course

So the Spanish Model album is working for me so far...

the vocals are a neat touch and the original tracks have been remastered or remixed.. i.e. the drums are more prominent and sounding i guess punchier\ brighter\ sharper then the original mix... hearing much more of the Farfisa sound.. it also seems like they have speed up Lipstick Vogue

I’m maybe not THAT enthusiastic about Big Inner but yeah, he’s a talent that never seemed to get his appropriate due. Seeing him repeatedly in front of 50-100 people here in RVA was a treat though.

The Philadelphia Experiment
The Detroit Experiment
The Harlem Experiment

was already aware of the Detroit and Philly ones, just added the Harlem one to to my collection

basic concept is local musicians of different backgrounds get together and jam in the studio for a few days...

so the Philly one has ?uestlove, Christian McBride and Uri Caine with some other locals helping out

The Detroit one is led by Carl Craig second wave techno DJ and producer/percussionist Karriem Riggins along with a number of local Detroit Jazz and funk musicians

the Harlem one has as it's core group Carlos Alomar, Ruben Rodriguez, Steve Berrios, Eddie Martinez, Don Byron, and Steve Bernstein.

A few years ago I found the US LP for 99 cents but no cover…Two decades ago the Argentine issue LP for a few bucks… cover is printed kind of weird which is cool

I think the key to Television is understanding they were the first

Before talking heads or Patti smith (who of course shacked up with Verlaine as part of her relentless sleep her way to the top campaign) or Ramones or Blondie… they put CBGB on map

They just didn’t release an album til after everyone else and by then history had moved on, even they had changed and they were left in the dust

When I listen to Verlaine I can totally hear where Patti Smith got a lot from…

It was related to a discussion on the Aswang, which, by night, grows wings and segments it's body, leaving it's legs behind. The discussion centered around whether or not the butt remains attached to the main body or gets left behind on top of the disembodied legs.

There's this terrible movie podcast called "How Did This Get Made" where comedians all watch the same bad movie then discuss it and in their review of the film Mannequin 2: On The Move, a film where Kristy Swanson plays a mannequin that comes to life sporadically, they have a long debate about where, exactly, the butt starts, first with reference to mannequins but later on more existentially.

It has become a bit of a trademark line that they've shoe-horned into later discussions of other terrible films.

Splurged on Discogs on a test pressing of an Argentine album that means a lot to me….

I had a recent reissue but just not good enough…. Felt like a forgery… About twenty years ago I had the original LP but it was stolen …. My guess is there are less than a few hundred copies of this floating around…by 1989 in Argentina the few people buying music were buying cassettes…hardly any vinyl was being pressed…less bought

I have spent 32 years now going back to this music and it’s never let me down….

This album came out in early 1989 in the middle of a big economic crisis with 200% monthly inflation (hence the title “No one gets out of here alive”) and promptly sank like a stone. Nobody was buying records. I heard a radio program where they played all the songs and I believe Calamaro was on it… I recorded it and listened to that tape for years… for example when I was homesick…before this album Andres had recorded many great songs but this was of another songwriting level as a whole and a powerhouse album all the way through. I headed to college in the states and Andres Calamaro moved to Spain where he formed a band with Ariel Rot (Cecilia Roth of Almodóvar movies is his sister) to try his luck there… of course, he hit it big…

When we last left Andres Calamaro the year was 1989 and he was moving to Spain

Once in Spain, with Rot, they created Los Rodriguez (kind of like The Smiths as far as a name)

Los Rodriguez consisted of a mix of Argentine rockers and Spanish…half the band had previously been in 80s rockers Tequila

Los Rodríguez is a very Stonesy band…lots of Stones rockers mixed with some great Calamaro ballads… they would become very big in Spain in pushing Rock and roll…Spain was still coming out of decades of repression and totalitarian rule under Franco

This is their first album released on a minor indie in exchange for $5000 their lead guitarist needed for his horse habit

Tons of classics many of which would be re-recorded in better studios with more budget

Calamaro begins to shift from a pop sound to a more rocking sound…the Stones become a major touchstone…looking at him on cover we see him beginning to sport his Bob Dylan look

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?

Did he have a heroin or equine habit?

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on September 29, 2021, 11:49:09 am

Fortunately the former

Anyways this was 1991… I was in college in Richmond and hating life.. frat fucks everywhere…I had no idea Calamaro had created a band… I had not even gone back to Argentina or if I did I never heard about Los Rodriguez …Los Rodriguez were not well known in Argentina initially

But I also had discovered the great Stones albums…

All pre internet…it would be many years til I would catch up to this…many twists and turns

Calamaro’s second band

Maybe my favorite song ever..a hymn for Argentina

“Costumbres Argentinas” (Argentine customs (habits)

I think he was 22 or 23 at this point

Just sick that he could do this at such a young age

The guy playing the cowbell, leader of this band, was dead a few years later from AIDS which took out a bunch of the great Argentine musicians and sort of ended the scene

RIP Miguel Abuelo

Just learned about this cover by Chris Isaak of "I Want You To Want Me" which totally works... i guess it's whole elvis/roy influenced The Beatles who influenced Cheap Trick... so Isaak can totally rock this one out

https://youtu.be/sC-aevrGnBI

speaking of covers I'm rather enjoying The Specials covers album that just came out "Protest Songs 1924 – 2012" and would totally buy this one if I were living in the UK. their comeback album left me a bit cold, but this is great collection.

i'm particularly enjoying the cover of Talking Heads "Listening Wind"

https://youtu.be/WqNAjMOO0ik

given the acoustic nature of this album, i'm guessing their most recent tour of the UK would have been great to have been at.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on October 05, 2021, 03:59:41 pm

I just can’t even pretend this is the Specials… it’s three guys left and no Dammers…if you told me Hall, Dammers and Golding I might buy it

To me this is just Terry Hall taking over the brand…and cutting the other two dudes in for a small piece of action or even worse (paying them a retainer)

Terry Hall is a special talent but he is not The Specials

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on October 05, 2021, 04:11:59 pm

I mean it was bad enough when they cut out Dammers but then they forced a couple other guys out…then the drummer croaked

Still would obviously go see them if circumstances were right but I think the FFS show I saw was probably the last tour you could argue it was the Specisls…5 out of 7 founding members

took me almost 30 years to realize that most of those great ska songs were covers. I always thought they were originals.
I always knew the clash did a few covers, but somehow never did the homework to realize that the same was for all my favorite ska bands

but that Labi song ...just on some random spotify mix and I was like...I know this song, but somethin is not right. I looked at the cover and was like, this doesn't make sense

The new VU movie (https://youtu.be/hWq7a8Tin8g) looks really good...
so much incredible footage from the trailer alone
apparently the hatch-hold is buying appleTV+ tonight

I could totally see lou singing I'll Be your Mirror
Looking at setlist.fm he only played it live twice before 1979, then became a regular part of his set
in fact he ended the show with it at one of my favorite 9:30 club shows (https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/lou-reed/1998/930-club-washington-dc-63d0cac3.html)

to me this (https://youtu.be/dGxgIO32M7w)cover version is the best, if someone has a better one, let me have it

Let It Be Super Deluxe (you can stream it now on Spotify/Amazon/etc, no way am I dropping $150 on that)

The Glyn Johns mixed album is... interesting. I can see why the group decided it wouldn't see the light of day. Still pretty cool to hear for the first time but that's as big as a drop-off from The White Album as you can imagine.

Leaving out the entire rooftop concert is a rather strange omission.

The Velveteers - Nightmare Daydream

Scorching rock album released by Easy Eye Sound probably my most favorite new label of late...

decided to take this one for a road test, because if it doesn't rock out on the car radio what's the point...

anyways, i noticed at one point there was a whole lot of drumming going on, which of course could have been done in the studio...

but, turns out the band's lineup is guitar. drums and a second drummer who also doubles on keyboards... so on occasion you get that rarely seen double drum attack... anyways here's a video to rock your world...

and i'm guessing they are something to see live based on this video

Bill Evans is a world of music unto himself. I been enjoying it although there is a lot of melancholy to it.

I wish I could appreciate the bass solos… like Scott Lafaro here, just a few days before his fatal car accident.

Bob lives for hitting up record shops

Madonna - Madonna

After having read all about the influence of the New York City danceteria (club) scene -which included a young Madonna-on my favorite band New Order (from both Sumner and Hook, Morris outstanding)I am listening to this one with more attention and fresh ears and wouldn’t you know it I totally hear New Order here..it’s hard to replace Madonna ‘s voice with Sumner but if you do it - on some tracks(notBorderline which is an outlier) you can totally imagine big parts of the backing tracks as New Order…the synths and programmed drums…which is bizarre

the New Order guitar is more post punk (not funky like Madonna) married to Ennio Morricone as is the bass… but the drums and synths in early new order are very similar to the Madonna record that broke her… madonna’s voice is so different and the fan bases of both from different planets I doubt many people put two and two together

* actually I even hear it on Borderline

Been listening to Buddy Holly’s Greatest Hits and even though I haven’t listened in a long while, some of these are clearly already in my DNA. Haven’t yet dived into his deep cuts and rarities, it’s only a matter of time for that effort ;D

One song that jumped out with this most recent listen was “Listen To Me”. This one may as well be the blueprint for several British Invasion groups

I should add they played hardcore punk and came out of the same Orange County scene as Agent Orange.

Unfortunately their anti-feminist bent - clear from the name- and Nazi sympathies meant they had a short career (How Seymour Stein signed them is beyond me but he must have been horrified by this album cause they were dropped quickly) although I heard they recently regrouped to play Trump campaign events.

Cedar Walton born James Whiteford to the famous tap dancing Whiteford family ran from an abusive family while in his teens and was supported in acting school by Sammy Davis Jr. adopting the stage name Cedar Walton marrying two of his favorite things: the smell of cedar and the tv show The Waltons. He eventually became a valet for Frank Sinatra then gravitated to the Manson family but was able to escape conviction. He reinvented himself as a disco singer after becoming close friends with OJ Simpson whom he physically resembled. Many insist he was OJ’s double in Blazing Saddles in the scenes that required acting chops.

With lyrics like this, it is clear they are anti-feminist Nazi bastards:

I can tell by your eyes
That you've prob'bly been cryin' forever
And the stars in the sky don't mean nothin' to you
They're a mirror

I don't want to talk about it
How you broke my heart
If I stay here just a little bit longer
If I stay here, won't you listen to my heart?

If I stand all alone
Will the shadow hide the colour of my heart
Blue for the tears, black for the night's fears

And the stars in the sky don't mean nothin' to you
They're a mirror

I don't want to talk about it, how you broke my heart
If I stay here just a little bit longer
If I stay here, won't you listen to my heart?
This ol' heart

If I stay here just a little bit longer
If I stay here, won't you listen to my heart?
My heart, whoa, heart.

Cedar Walton born James Whiteford to the famous tap dancing Whiteford family ran from an abusive family while in his teens and was supported in acting school by Sammy Davis Jr. adopting the stage name Cedar Walton marrying two of his favorite things: the smell of cedar and the tv show The Waltons. He eventually became a valet for Frank Sinatra then gravitated to the Manson family but was able to escape conviction. He reinvented himself as a disco singer after becoming close friends with OJ Simpson whom he physically resembled. Many insist he was OJ’s double in Blazing Saddles in the scenes that required acting chops.

I like this new creative outlet, could make a thread on 'what if' band history

Pappo’s Blues - Pappo’s Blues

This reissue sounds fantastic.

Recorded in December 1970 and January 1971 this is some heavy ass shit. Pappo is sometimes referred to as the Argentine Hendrix. The first track has been covered by Clutch. Stoner blues rock might originate here or at the very least it’s a touchstone.

A live recording with Bill Evans on piano recorded in the first half of August 1959…a few days before Miles Davis’ Kind of Blue ,which Bill arguably makes, was released…. You got to think the kinds of live dates Bill was having must have changed immediately after Kind of Blue…no more dates backing others (like this one) for starters one would think….But I honestly need a good Bill Evans bio urgent ….. that whole 1958-1959 period around Miles is my favorite and endlessly fascinating…throw in Cannonball Adderley’s Somethin’ Else which is practically a Miles session…Of course Coltrane returning to Miles after playing with Monk and cleaning up

Nothing much special happens here…none of Bill’s languid almost soporific playing…it doesn’t seem his style of playing….here it’s pretty typical….of course this would have been incredible live

Jimmy Garrison on bass who would go on to fame as part of the John Coltrane Quartet
This live set was released decades after being recorded

I think Just a Notion is great and sounds like a classic Abba song that could be playing on my mom’s car stereo in 1981. But it’s an outlier. Wish there was like a 50/50 split between wistful torch song and wistful buoyant disco but it’s more like 90/10.

Listening to one song where the magic didn’t quite develop I thought about how cool a Thomas Bangalter / Benny / Abba collaboration could be. Masters of transcendent ‘cheesy’ music

yup, i'm waiting too - mostly to clear out my personal confusion. as far as i was aware, there was only one band called Everything But The Girl (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everything_but_the_Girl), from England. they had one of the biggest club hits of the 90's with the terry todd remix of "Missing" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_(Everything_but_the_Girl_song)). was there another EBTG from OC?

I think I had one chance to see Soft Cell: November 24, 2002 at the 930….I blew it

I was just back from Argentina two weeks prior and my first shows back that month were Luna, Dylan and can’t remember what else…

I think in 40 years Soft Cell has hardly played the US. I suppose they have been dormant for most of that time…I don’t believe they have played the US since 2002

They have a new final album coming out next year and are playing a few dates in England this week. Hoping next year they will play a few shows in the US…but these England shows might be the end

Non stop erotic cabaret really is a tremendous album…

As is well known about 1960 Ray moved from Atlantic Records to ABC that gave him an incredible contract where they even gave him ownership of the masters ….ten years after ABC didn’t care about Ray as he was no longer selling at all…. But they still distributed the few copies Ray made of his new records on his own record label Tangerine

This instrumental big band record came out about 1972 and is pretty obscure..must have sold under 10,000 copies… except for the first track Ray Charles’ piano is hardly featured, except for the first song nothing is written by Ray, he doesn’t sing, he doesn’t arrange anything…

Pretty bizarre… I found one laudatory review on all music by someone that doesn’t seem to have much of a clue… other than that it’s as if the record hardly existed

So it’s a combination of new purchases of old vinyl that I want to listen to… it’s almost like my type of streaming..many won’t be played again… AND favorites in semi organized record racks…probably 7,000 or so…a lot of stuff is just boxed up in a shed….stuff that I listened to and sampled…maybe duplicates

I used to do a ton of digging for records and buy them cheap…come home with a fat stack and start playing them and researching them on the internet…. learning about them…that’s my fun…now I don’t have time or energy to go from record store to record store to thrift stores so I just dig at my local record store two miles from here fairly regularly…needless to say I try to pay $1-$3 for LPs unless it’s something I really want

if your shed has 7k albums in it, wouldn't digging through those be just like sifting through a record shop? i know i couldn't remember all 7000... shouldn't be that hard to stumble upon something that you've completely forgotten you even had (AKA equivalent to discovering something in a shop)

Well I pick the ones I want in my home but I just can’t keep more in my home.. I mean many of those in the shed are fairly worthless records I have no interest in….should I keep five copies of Rappers delight in my house?

It’s actually very common for people with large collections to keep part of it boxed up….you have to make choices…

In my old house I kept them all inside and what happens then is the records you really love are overrun by records you find kind of interesting or bought for next to nothing just to listen to once… some of those are pretty banged up….it doesn’t make sense… I have thought of renting storage many times but it’s just not worth it

My idea is to get rid of many of them…and I have already started doing that…

When you spend twenty years collecting records this is what happens… I always thought I would have a massive record library at home but it’s just not going to happen

I been listening to this one a lot lately…nothing much crazee happens…it’s super comfortable sort of Willie backed by a classic almost traditional New Orleans jazz band or maybe a 1930s Ellington…a song or two are perfunctory (Stardust unfortunately…) but then there are some that Willie just kills it with his behind the beat singing (Night Life)… the guy has the absolute best timing as a singer… there’s a reason Miles Davis was such a fan of his already in the late 1960s!

And this brings to mind another thing I love about Willie. He will record with anyone in almost any type of music. You almost have the feeling if you called him and said “Hey Willie I am going to be in town, can I drop by and we can play and sing some tunes….oh yeah I can’t play or sing” he’d be like “Sure man…let’s do it.”

There is an underworld curated cd where they include Marvin Gayes’s T plays it cool (from Toubleman) with one of my favorite drum breaks ever played by Marvin himself

And sure enough “Tree and two chairs” on Drift includes a very similar drum break

Most people don’t even know Gaye was a seriously talented drummer

Nick Drake music I had not heard. You could knock me with a feather. Hearing him, alone, on guitar (or piano on Saturday Sun) on some of the Five Leaves Left material-without the majestic Robert Kirby string arrangements- is pretty special. The highlight for me are the versions of Saturday Sun on here; sublime. I knew the home recordings existed and heard Tamworth-at-Arden more than 20 years ago but had no idea about these including some BBC recordings.

In the golden age of hambands, let's say late 90's into the early 2000's... This was a band that I basically completely overlooked. If you're a fan of The Barr Brothers, I highly recommend going back into The Slip's catalog. They're basically the same band. Amazing musicianship, more jazz-esque/MMW type than your typical 4th tier hambanders. Anyway, they reunited after a decade or so and are putting out a new release.

VU album? It’s a four cd box set issued in Japan for which Yule provided tapes of four different live shows in the 1971-1973 period.

The first two CDs are arguably the VU as they have Yule and Moe Tucker playing VU songs combined with two new band members …Lou Reed and Sterling left and they soldiered on

I haven’t listened to much yet but have always been fascinated by this period.

Yule writes the show in 1973 was a mistake. He was in a band gigging and the promoter insisted on billing it as the Velvet Underground

I don’t really understand people who get outraged and worked up about Yule continuing on…. You have to look at it in the context of 1971…. When Lou left they had been a nothing band for years… their shows usually to a few dozen people… it wasn’t as if Yule soldiered on in 1973 when Jagger Richards left and they were the biggest band ever! In 1971 Lou hadn’t hooked up with Bowie etc yet…the VU reappraisal wasn’t even close to happening

At the end of the day it’s music. Strip it of all of the mythology and all the critical scorn or praise heaped on it by the rock critics and listen to it as such.

Doug Yule didn’t kill anyone. He was in a band for a couple of years and Lou left. Yule and Mo tried to keep going and it failed just as the band led by Lou failed commercially in 1969 and 1970. Just like Lou Reed’s first solo album released April 1972 and rehashing VU songs completely stiffed (recorded with Rick Waksman and an Elton John band member BTW…a chapter always overlooked)

Of course Lou Reed is a genius and Doug Yule - like most of us- not , but put yourself in his shoes: you been scuffling playing with VU for a couple of years- you ain’t exactly living the high life - why shouldn’t you be able to continue as the VU? At that point they were nothing.

Eventually but when they initially continued and did the late 71 UK tour Moe Tucker and Doug Yule were on board.

I think the Squeeze album is a different thing entirely as it’s pretty much just Yule.

Keep in mind after Moe left they only played like 10 shows if that

I was reminded of how awesome these guys can be on the recent Uncut Dylan Revisited where they cover I’ve made up my mind to give myself to you from last year’s Dylan album Rough and Rowdy Ways. An incredible cover. Give it a listen. It adds so much to the original and makes you realize what a great song Bob wrote.

My favorite from his folk years….

The cover is him and his then girlfriend Suze Rotolo walking around the village in NYC…if they didn’t get married it was close…. The breakup chronicled on Ballad in Plain D…..by all accounts she - and her family- had a big influence on Bob who kind of transormed from a bit of a Midwestern country bumpkin to a man of letters within a year or two…

Nick Cave: Fuck! I’ve never seenthat (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRbfFZnJZYQ)! My first band was basically an Alex Harvey cover band.

He's not wrong, after watching that I see where he gets his inspiration more than anyone else

Alex Harvey sounds like Bon Scott! And definitely AC/DC overtones

A lot of similarities between Bon Scott and Alex both late bloomers to rock… both from Scotland

I get the visceral charge one gets from new just released music but if something is new to me it’s new even if it came out in 1973! And I love exploring the connections…the history…how it all ties together

As far as Nick… some lyrical similarities in the types of songs… you can draw a line from Harvey--to Cave’s treatment of disturbing subject matter such as in I let love in

the expanded version of this album includes the standard 12" remixes which were always great, Hundreds and Thousands was a great collection of their extended versions.

I bought a few LPs today that are pretty banged up including this one from 1961

As far as I can tell this is the point where Cuban music from Cuba and Cuban style music in the US begin to split on the way to full fledged salsa… initially the new US variant - at first very similar to Cuban-is called charanga and is typified by a flute and string instrument backing

Johnny Pacheco is instrumental in the development of salsa… in fact he sets up Fania a few years later (think US Latin music equivalent to Blue Note) and even puts out first record on it…

All of this early America Latin music seems to have come out of the Bronx

Nick Cave doesn’t do bad albums (well maybe Nocturama)

So it just comes down to personal preference

I find Carnage the most accessible Cave album since Push the sky away.

32nd Turn Off

a crazy psych funk album from Eddy Grant with his brother on drums put out in 1969, released between The Equals and his first solo album..

super rare but out in the wild via streaming... beware of NSFW album artwork :D

Despite the misleading title, by my count, this is the first studio album (1980) by Piazzolla’s “new tango quintet”

This “band” would go on to record Tango zero hour 6 years later in NYC which is definitely a top 100 record for me. It’s astounding stuff and if you haven’t heard it you must:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tango:_Zero_Hour

https://www.allmusic.com/album/tango-zero-hour-mw0000652151

https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmZwalznhrkFkTnoA5ecMruISQqsaiEzD

I have a pretty solid tango collection but my first new year’s resolution is to deepen my collection by classic tango artists like Gardel, Piazzolla, Goyeneche, Rivero, Troilo and Salgan and fill in gaps.

This is the hardest to find of James Brown’s Christmas albums. My copy is really scratched up

Not one copy of the original US pressing on eBay. A handful on discogs

I think this album must have sold 5-10k tops when it came out in 1970.

A decade ago there was a two cd issue that compiled all his Xmas stuff…

The matrix is a dinky club too. Building is (was in 2008) still there and the club closed in 1972
Some lame restaurant reopened there called The MatrixFillmore little smaller than U st

edit two new updates
In 2017, the club name was changed back to The Matrix, described as a casual neighborhood bar with DJs and dancing on weekends.[1] In 2019, The Matrix was remodeled and renamed the White Rabbit.

I don’t know…he could be very congenial and spoke at least three languages as a native speaker (English, Spanish and Italian).

Add to that his history…he played for Carlos Gardel as a kid in NYC (14 years old!!) and I believe his parents didn’t let him get on the fateful flight to Colombia (that killed Gardel -44- just as he was poised to become a star in the US).

Obviously studied in Paris with Nadia Boulanger.

Just an incredible life….

I’d happily have him yell at me….

Was just listening to Rick Rubin interview the remaining beasites on Broken Record and was really awesome
He was talking about how blew away he was when he heard this
great episode and they hadn't talked in decades before this interview that pretty much covers the dorm room phase that the bands origins form

Did they talk about “Rock hard” at all?

That is so Rubin…using an AC/DC sample on that BB track

And it’s so AC/DC to have been like “No, not happening”

They had to pull it

I got it here somewhere

Well but they are 12” singles…special mixes… so it’s not a greatest hits but a compilation of 12 inch mixes and their b sides… most if not all never came out on albums…

This album is fantastic! Tin Pan Alley standards done really well. Rekindled my love of her music.

discussion time!

What Are You Listening To? it's not new music, apparently.

Is Old Music Killing New Music? (https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/01/old-music-killing-new-music/621339/)
Old songs now represent 70 percent of the U.S. music market. Even worse: The new-music market is actually shrinking.

"The problem isn’t a lack of good new music. It’s an institutional failure to discover and nurture it."

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Justin Tonation on January 25, 2022, 04:16:26 pm

Haven't read the article yet, but I'll say two things:

1. New music recordings do not make old ones disappear. They just add to the total available.

2. There are now more old people than ever, and they like to listen to "their" music.

It's a demographic problem, not the music itself.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on January 26, 2022, 05:54:26 pm

I don’t think that’s entirely it. Music isn’t as important to newer generations…it has to compete with other things… when I was young music was all we had…that and blockbuster.

somewhat standard if you don't want to pay $4k a year in homeowners insurance
but if you have a big issue you will be glad to only pay $2k of that $20k bill
it's amazing how many things are not covered

what is covered is if your bike gets stolen, but that deductible can get you...probably not bresner's bike

It’s amazing this was recorded professionally but unavailable for over 50 years. I get the “but we had Massey Hall!” argument but this has like 13 songs not on Massey including three of his greatest songs: Cinnamon Girl, Only love can break your heart and an incredible version of Southern Man.

it's now my go-to album on brew days (time to add the Hops when 'shine a light' comes on)

in the last three years, I'd say it may be the album most played (from start to finish for sure)

knew jagger doesn't love it, but this was fairly harsh
In 2003, Jagger said, "Exile is not one of my favourite albums, although I think the record does have a particular feeling. I'm not too sure how great the songs are, but put together it's a nice piece. However, when I listen to Exile it has some of the worst mixes I've ever heard. I'd love to remix the record, not just because of the vocals, but because generally I think it sounds lousy. At the time Jimmy Miller was not functioning properly. I had to finish the whole record myself, because otherwise there were just these drunks and junkies. Of course I'm ultimately responsible for it, but it's really not good and there's no concerted effort or intention." Jagger also stated he did not understand the praise among Rolling Stones fans because the album did not yield many hits.

that sound and unprofessionalism is part of the appeal

Moz - Your Arsenal

Morrissey gets a lot of flak…some of it justified some of it over the top

National Front Disco is pretty polemic but in some way - like much of his work- foretells Brexit/Trumpism

I find nothing wrong with the song. He describes a kid/young man named David (Bowie?) who falls under the influence of the fascist National Front… Moz doesn’t pass judgment…

It’s true though, in retrospect, that Moz does in fact want an “England for the English”…

It’s amusing that the album produced by Mick Ronson lifts the coda from Rock’n’roll suicide for the ending of I know it’s gonna happen someday.

I know many disagree but Moz’s solo work from 1988-1995 is almost as good as The Smiths (sometimes as good) and demonstrates he didn’t need Marr. He found other collaborators like Vini Reilly, Stephen Street, Nevin and Whyte who were able to provide the music for his lyrics.

Ween - 12 golden country greats

Found a promo cd with the Ali rap

I sold my copy many years ago without realizing the rap was removed from virtually every issue after the first due to the Ali people complaining

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: ye-ole-hatch ıll|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|̲̅̅=̲̅̅|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|llıl on February 04, 2022, 01:32:41 pm

learning all sorts of things today...didn't even know about this

The first copy of 12 Golden Country Greats I bought has the version of Powder Blue where it goes, "And ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to present, Muhammad Ali" end of song. I had read about how Ween originally recorded the song with an audio clip of Muhammad Ali trash-talking at the end. They were apparently denied permission to use the Ali audio, by Ali's lawyers. But there were promo copies of the album that were produced with the Muhammad Ali bit intact. Here comes the question; I bought a used copy of 12 Golden Country Greats at an estate sale (despite already owning it) I thought, "Do you think it could have the original version of Powder Blue?

The releases were normal, not promotional. Here's the discogs where you can click through to each release of the record to see which include and don't include the ali quote: https://www.discogs.com/Ween-12-Golden-Country-Greats/master/32648

For instance, this is probably the one you found: https://www.discogs.com/Ween-12-Golden-Country-Greats/release/875805

"This release includes a speech by Muhammed Ali at the end of track 6, which was removed from later pressings."

I have the US version of the album; it has the Ali clip. I picked up my copy the day it was released. As far as I know, all first pressings have the Ali clip. Ween wasn't asked to remove the clip until after the CD shipped. There was never a recall or "order to destroy" sent to retail. The Ali estate just asked to have the clip removed and ween/Elektra complied.

Yeah that’s exactly right. I am pretty sure I had an original stock copy with the rap but I haven’t had it in over a decade. Now when I saw the promo I thought it would have the rap and it does. It’s not just that subsequent versions don’t have the rap but in addition they come to a cold hard stop on Powder blue which I have never liked.

Although as I understand it KEXP invented it, so I think they get the final say..

Lots of Clash influenced Argentinian rock on KEXP right now. The DJ is really cute, too.

Correction: What I was hearing was actually Mexican rock, obviously inspired by the Clash. Maybe some Clash inspired Argentinian rock later in the show.

The song is asking the English not to bomb Buenos Aires during the Malvinas War that was happening/ happened in 1982…the year of its release….hilarious

It’s all deep for me

I wish presidents could still get things done like LBJ …

There is a great call with Jackie (I thought they couldn’t stand each other…), one with Truman where he gets him to represent the US at a funeral for the king of Greece (“I need to show them we love them…”) when he is worried about Cyprus but can’t attend

There is a call in early 64 about Vietnam where he talks about getting sucked in and it’s like “DUDE you had it totally right! WHY did you let yourself get sucked in”

And of course the calls where he gets/cajoles Senators to reverse their negative votes on bills he needs..”look I need you to do this for me and I will take care of you”

Very True but he still needed them on committees and some of these senators were very powerful..legends of their time…he still has to massage their egos etc…

At one point a senator was like well I wish you had called me earlier…Jack called us….(LBJ is calling here to get him to reverse his negative vote)

LBJ is smooth as butter…I guess I had forgotten how southern he was

Dexys Midnight Runners - Searching For The Young Soul Rebels

quite the debut album...

never thought to go backwards with them, so far so good

this was a funny footnote on this album
During their time with EMI Records the band consistently experienced troubles with their contract: upon their initial negotiations only three members of the group (Rowland, Archer and Geoffrey "Jeff" Blythe), called the "nucleus", were signed to the label, which caused a stir within the group. They were also only being paid 6% of the royalties, whereas most bands receive 10–12%. This led to Rowland threatening to steal the album from the studio and hold it ransom until their pay was increased, which EMI laughed at. However, on the last day of mixing the record, while Wingfield was out of the studio to get a cup of coffee, the members of the group locked the door to the studio, each taking a carton of magnetic tape and ran through the building to their getaway vehicle, a Morris Minor which belonged to Saunders' girlfriend and drove to Rowland's parents' house in Birmingham. EMI demanded the tapes back but the band had already set off on their sell-out UK tour. The band gave the tapes back when EMI raised their pay to 9%, but they almost destroyed them by travelling through the London Underground, which could have demagnetized them and wiped everything.

guess the never thought how 6% would be fantastic to what they are getting on spotify today

Isn't there something like that around The Lemonheads' song Drug Buddy having a "clean" version with the exact same song but listed as "Buddy" in the tracklisting?

I think there were "sanitized" versions of Siamese Dream where Silverfuck had asterisks as well.

I think the tradition in jazz is to either bill everyone or nobody (other than leader) on front cover

Discogs likes to use consistent names for instruments and artists. For a new submission, when you start to enter an instrument, it will show accepted names that can be entered. "Chekere" is not found but "Shekere" shows up as an option as soon as you type "she". But for clarity, you can enter an alternate instrument name in brackets after the acceptable instrument name, e.g. "Shekere [Chekere]". This is done a lot for particular synthesizers.

For artists, every artist has a standardized name plus any variations ("Artist Name Variation (ANV)"). ANVs are shown with an asterisk by the name. For example, there is State Of Alert (https://www.discogs.com/artist/271698-State-Of-Alert) and S.O.A. (https://www.discogs.com/master/268453-SOA-No-Policy-EP)

This concludes your Discogs lesson for the night.

TiVo/Allmusic has this as part of their description

Tropical Fuck Storm channel the brooding and menacing sound of Nick Cave as well as leader Gareth Liddiard's previous band the Drones.

note: I've never figured out the whole TiVo/Allmusic connection... looks like AllMusic became TiVo at some point and now TiVo feeds AllMusic.

while there are a few classic singles...Goats Head Soup really hits like a thud after those 5

I think goats head soup is an abomination

But it has its fans who seem to like it…they claim it has a great druggy vibe.. I once dated someone who tried to convince me it was great but I wasn’t having it…

Jimmy Miller must have been seriously on heroin to produce this turd and the band promptly shitcanned him

The follow up, It’s only rock and roll is even worse or about the same

They really were treading water at this point

Angie is a top ten stones song for me
Heartbreaker Also hits a lot of sweet spots (that intro! The keys and the wha-wha)

So some might put it on a pedestal just because of those

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on March 19, 2022, 02:24:42 pm

Well it’s got some good songs but that a great album does not make. You can listen to both of those - Angie and Hesrtbreaker- on a Stones compilation (rewind)

On the other hand I love the underrated Black and blue (oh vinyl pressing smokes! Almost a reference disc)….not burnt out on it like Angie

Really could never get into that one. The first two I listen to so often but Third just never did it for me. Chris Bell's I Am The Cosmos is really fantastic though.

Still when I was in my catholic school in the Bay Area they were definitely appealing to the geeks and freaks trench coat and black clothes wearers… most kids were into scorpions, rush, Van Halen etc

The song is nice enough, but some of his fashion choices belong in the fashion fauz pas thread.

His Tiny Desk Concert was also surprisingly good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIIuzB11dsA

I had no idea this existed…a shelved Karen Carpenter album from 1979-1980 with none other than Phil Ramone producing. I guess it was finally released on cd in 1996. Top session cats plus some from Billy Joel’s band.

It’s not about sides…it’s about pacifism

So when your country is being invaded...you don't head the call??

I think this had more to do with wars being waged by the US and britan around the globe
I don't think you should heed the call up to fight a war in afganistan or vietnam
or some other imperialist effort
but if someone attacked US soil, you bet your bottom dollar I'd be signing up to do IT support at the Home base ;)

I do love that couplet:
It's up to you to not heed the call up
'n you must not act the way you were brought up

I think you are right

I am just thinking Strummer was no fan of war but of course he was into the Sandinistas resisting…how did that work out btw? Ortega is worse than anything the contras would have done….

I mean there is a school of thought that all war, fighting and killing is bad.

Nothing about Kiev in the song? That was a cool find

I had this set as part of the Willie complete Atlantic sessions cd box and it came out as a stand alone for RSD this year on LP. It’s my lone pickup this RSD.

Side 4 pressing or mastering fault aside it’s a wonderful listen. If I had a time machine and I had to go back for a Willie show 1974 in Austin would be pretty good. Willie was 41 and it was now or never for his career….he had become a part of a new counterculture scene developing in Austin…growing his hair out..becoming the Willie we all know and love..moving back to Austin from conservative Nashville…outlaw country was just about to come into its own…he was slowly finding the building blocks for his band (Mickey Raphael on harmonica had just joined as a 22 year old) and about to turn into the road warrior he would be for the next 50 years.

If you had told RCA and Atlantic executives that in a few short years Willie would be on top of the world, selling millions upon millions, winning Grammys etc they wouldn’t have believed it. He had spent eight years on RCA - putting out at least 14 records- and by the end was probably selling less than 1000 copies of his albums.

This live recording shows him at the moment he is discovering an audience now exists willing to meet him on his terms. It must have been exhilarating given he had been at it since the 1950s!!! My guess is at the time of the recording Atlantic was contemplating a live follow up to Shotgun Willie (my favorite Willie LP and the real beginning of outlaw country even if nobody knew it) and Phases and Stages but probably just gave up on Willie when these records stiffed.

Steve Conte - Bronx Cheer

A perfect Friday afternoon album from Steve Conte who has played with a who's who of NYC rockers, including his own bands Company Of Wolves, later day New York Dolls and currently Michael Monroe's band. Also known for Anime soundtrack work..

Anyways, lots of noisy guitars and gritty vocals, perfect for end of the week or hanging on a Saturday night. Andy Partridge enjoyed it, what more do you need to know. Think hutch would dig this one, although not sure about this Starsky fellow

short version: blissfull, bouncy album for fans of psy-dub, psybient, dubtrobica, funky chillout, etc.

longer version: Ott (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ott_(record_producer)) has been working on this album for several years now, and there was huge pent up demand - so much so that the album is #1 on Bandcamp (currently only place to get it) since it was released last week. it's even keeping thom yorke's latest side-project out of the #1 spot ;D Ott has been associated with Shpongle, at times engineering, mixing and/or performing. he used to be a sought-after studio guy but sounds like he's retired from engineering and is only producing his own music now.

Glorietta - Glorietta

found out about another Adrian Quesada associated project... this one is a super group of songwriters knocking out a record over five tequila soaked days..

those involved

Noah Gundersen
Matthew Logan Vasquez
Kelsey Wilson
Adrian Quesada
Jason Robert Blum
David Ramirez

An interesting Americana record

https://glorietta.bandcamp.com/album/glorietta

Adrian's just released tribute to Balada Music "that blossomed throughout Latin America between the late ‘60s and early ‘70s. A refined collision of bossa nova smoothness, Beatlesque psychedelia and torrid boleropathos, balada used art-pop instrumentation (mostly strings and harpsichords)"

This is an amazing listen... Gonna get lots of repeat listens..

Bettie Serveert - Palolmine

(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/0a/Palomine_%28Bettie_Serveert_album_-_cover_art%29.jpg)

was mentioned on twitter yesterday and was prompted to give a listen after many many years... a couple real classics on this one "Kids Allright" and Tomboy.

and this is quite the origin story

The band originally formed in 1986, but its members split up for four years, following their first gig. They reformed in 1990, and released their debut album, Palomine, in 1992

Loved Lamprey and caught them at the club on that tour

this was a funny footnote

Almost 26 years after starting the band, Bettie Serveert finally met the Dutch tennis player Betty Stö:ve on April 13 ’18. Her ’70’s tennis instruction books called ‘Betty Serveert’ were the inspiration for their band name.

I like lamprey which I do have on LP too

They lost me with Dustbunnies although I have later records

Carol’s voice was perfect

Zero extra…side D is a stupid etching

I had to buy it for sentimental reasons but kind of a waste of $45…if you have the cd….not sure it will sound any better on LP…probably a flat transfer from the cd

It sounds good and the records are flat but the alternate cover is a buzzkill…I wonder why?

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s released on black vinyl but I couldn’t be sure so I broke down…$45 was actually reasonable as it was going for $80 with shipping from Europe…

a couple weeks a bounty of great new albums out come...

One of them is Ural Thomas and the Pain - Dancing Dimensions

Ural is another soul singer who was active in the 60s and is having a resurgence of late with a hot band out of Portland. Probably already on Space's radar, this is great album which sounds great on headphones. Best of the year for sure...

Couple previous records out there as well...

next on the new release heavy rotation is

The Suffers - It Starts with Love

Definitely their best album to date as the second was good but always left me a little cold and the first was a solid introduction. This one easily moves from being joyous to serious and it's letting some of it's other musical influences come out...

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?

since i need to trot out at least one "obscure" release, i present

The Handcuffs - Burn The Rails

https://thehandcuffs.bandcamp.com/

Featuring Brad Elvis of Elvis Brother fame and The Romantics of late on drums and singer\saxophonist Chloe F. Orwell, this one has lots of rock swagger and attitude with hits of glam, etc... also features on a couple tracks guest keyboardist Morgan Fisher (Mott The Hoople) demonstrates his synthesizer and piano prowess

and yes in amongst all those guitars, drums and keyboards, there is some rockin' sax

definitely a keeper for moi

Two tracks into this and I'm was spending my money on it

Back To Business
by Chris Bangs & Mick Talbot

https://acidjazz.bandcamp.com/album/back-to-business

Not that he ever really went a way, but nice return by Mick Talbot (Style Council, etc) some on fire keyboard playing on this...

i like this quote about it

Indeed if the LP was presented as some lost 60s Blue Note/Chess album from someone like, say, Brother Jack McDuff, Jimmy Smith or Ramsey Lewis you wouldn’t blink an eye lid!

nods also to Earl Van Dyke

While maybe a bit early in the day for it, I was rocking out to the new Nova Twins album "Supernova". These young ladies rock HARD, the lazy RIYL would be RATM, but i'm sure there are better comparisons, but sure bring the heavy and rage to this release

and I miss the CMJ New Music Reviews Recommended If You Like (RIYL) inclusions in their reviews, almost always spot on and I wish you would see this more often... but i guess algorithms do that now a day instead ::) and of course so few music reviewers now...

70s Jamaican dub represents one of the pinnacles of recorded music….that it was accomplished by a few hundred mostly impoverished and stoned rastas in the middle of incredible levels of violence blows my mind…

King Tubby is as good as it gets in the genre and this and his work with Yabby You may be my favorites. He was gunned down in the late 80s widely unknown. Glen Brown moved to upstate New York and got into home building.

Kate Bush - Aerial

had completely forgotten about the track "Mrs. Bartolozzi that someone smarter than I once said

It revives Bush's obsessive eroticism through an ordinary woman's ecstatic experience of cleaning after a rainstorm, and placing the clothing of her beloved and her own into the washing machine and observing in rapt sexual attention.

The late 60s early 70s soul jazz run of records is something I collect and enjoy….better than the late 60s early 70s run on Blue Note which began to noticeably slide when Alfred Lion sold the label.

This session from March 1970 has somewhat of a dream lineup with Boogaloo on guitar, Rusty Bryant on sax, Charles Earland on organ and Pretty Purdie on drums

Public Enemy was by far the biggest rap act 1987-1991. They were absolutely huge. It was no contest. They may have been the biggest act period. Just dominated

Then they just like fell off the planet or something. Like so bad…

Was it because a bunch of stuff kept coming out about how they and their production team and/or Professor Griff or Terminator X were anti-semitic? Sure seems like they just disappeared or were disappeared. Maybe the follow up to Fear of a black planet sucked but man suddenly they just disappeared! Plenty of bands peak and have weak follow ups and still say around! These guys just dropped off the planet in 1992. It was just bizarre.

When I was in grad school Chuck D did some event I attended..just talking…then I finally saw them at Virgin Freefest…I thought they killed it but the act did wear a bit thin you know with Flavor running around with his clock yelling YO YO Chuck!!!

Wilco-Cruel Country. A grower for sure. Definitely some Dead influences. You have to be in the right mood. Like on the drive back home from a long hike. That's a good time to listen.

Angel Olsen-Big Time. Like the Wilco album mostly slow in tempo. So listen when you're in the mood. Lots of retro-country sounds, great voice though just like Wilco, it's not really a country album.

Michael Rault- self titled. This sounds like a Mike Love solo album from the early 70's. I'm digging it. On Daptone.

Kelley Stoltz- The Stylist. This guy releases great power pop album after great powerr pop album, and never seems to get any attention. I checked his touring history, and I don't think he's every played around here. Mostly West Coast and overseas.

Theo Croker-Love Quantum. Jazz/soul/hip hop trumpeter in a Kamasi Washington vein. Really cool stuff. Perfect to play while you're making and eating your Sunday morning omelette.

The Regrettes-Further Joy. All girl hooky punky pop from LA. Saw them on the Bonaroo broadcast on Hulu and was hooked.

Billy Strings-Renewal. Also saw him on the Bonaroo broadcast. I'm a bit late to the party, but when he's doing straight bluegrass, it's the best new bluegrass I've heard in the last 15 years.

I always assumed this thread was to show what music you are listening to right now (the moment you are writing your response). See Hutch's responses with actual pictures for reference. I think Space's response goes against the spirit of this thread, and I will totally ignore it and even express my disdain with his response (see my response) , but that is just my opinion.

Remember Day 12 when K8teebug was listening to an entire Tom Waits collection and three other bands? Remember 15 years ago when there were a lot more people other than Hutch posting in this thread?

i strongly disagree with your opinion. no specific time frame is implied by "what are you listening to?". the question implies some degree of immediacy but "what are you listening to now?" is just as valid as "what are you listening to these days?"

If I posted in this thread as frequently as Hutch does, I definitely wouldn't post a mini review of each album. You probably won't hear from me in this thread again for a while...probably the next time I have another batch of new or new to me music to share.

I do think a tiny review of each album might be a helpful prompt for me to want to listen to something. Not necessarily for a Bob Marley live album or the latest Wilco offering but defintely for some of the more obscure stuff.

Post by: kosmo vinyl on June 30, 2022, 11:04:31 am

Will have to give El Dorado a listen just for kicks.. the Allmusic review of Cosmovalidator says this and i would agree

Cosmovalidator is a fairly uneven record, even if there's not a lot of variety from track to track -- Pony's Pixies constructions pack a tiny bit of punch when they work, but fall flat when they don't. This makes for a release with a few decent tracks ("Prize Fighter"), and several that aren't so good at all.

I went down this rabbit hole because some I follow mentioned they did PR for Pony in the UK at the time and suggested they change the name of the band because Pony in the UK is slang for shit... the band declined to change name

Well the band's name is Fernweh is also Germany for Wanderlust and clearly a popular band\artist name as there are four different artists on Bandcamp alone with that moniker

back to Torschlusspanik

"Torschlusspanik is a combination of three German words, and literally translated means "gate-shut-panic." Apparently the term dates back to the Middle Ages in reference to the panic medieval peasants might have experienced as they rushed to make it back inside the city gates before they closed at nightfall. Being left outside the protective walls would have meant being exposed to the cold, wild animals and perhaps robbers.

These days though, the definition of Torschlusspanik is more metaphorical, and is far more likely to be triggered by the effects of a mid-life crisis, or the tick-tock of a biological clock."

While listening to The Routes twangy take on Kraftwerk, I suddenly remembered the Senor Coconut album El Baile Alemán ("The German Dance" in Spanish) which is covers done in Latin American styles.

And from the Wikipedia article I like this footnote about why one of the tracks on the original release was removed

[Florian Schneider] said they really liked the work I did, which was quite an honour, of course, but they didn’t like my version of “Radioactivity” and they would really like not to see that released. I tried to convince them that it would be a good idea to release it actually and they got a bit stiff on that.

Right now it’s the new Working Men’s Club album Fear Fear

But, earlier it was the new Lizzo “Special” on repeat

Legally I’m not allowed to use the words “ It Slaps” and has the bops, but it does ;D

Will definitely have “Is Your Birthday Girl” bouncing around in my noggin in a day or so. Also busting out the 70s funky dance moves for “Everybody’s Gay”

The Heavy Heavy - Life and Life Only

https://theheavyheavy.bandcamp.com/album/life-and-life-only-2

shamelessly lifting from the Guardian review

If you’re going to play retro music well, you have two choices. You put an intriguing spin on your anachronisms. Or you create something that feels like it could be a lost classic from your chosen era. Brilliant new Brighton-based rock quintet the Heavy Heavy do both. There’s an obvious kinship with the comforting close harmony psych, folk and blues of the 60s, but they write and play music with that lick of madness that makes early Fleetwood Mac and peak Stones so thrilling.

Agree the initial demand has to be in the thousands but it’s the kind of release that will sell consistently over the years if in print.

Record labels these days -when it comes to vinyl- just do limited runs and don’t keep things in print. And I’m not just talking about non mainstream acts. Releases are all limited and collectible and special. I’ll take it over no vinyl at all but it’s frustrating having to chase out of print titles on discogs or eBay and pay huge markups.

Everyone is a scalper or reseller of everything now. It’s kind of pathetic.

Don't normally listen to Beyonce, but the new one intrigued me.. so far it's fading in out of the background but the first single "Break My Soul" which samples Robin S.'s mighty might anthem "Show Me Love" is good. And this one really jumped out at me "Pure/Honey" as is last track "Summer Renaissance" which samples Donna Summer. and of course Pure/Honey is the next single of this record..

https://youtu.be/WM133A3vqLE

I also learned because Kelis is upset that Milkshake was sampled without clearance on this one... turns out because it's a Neptune's song, so she might not have any say in the matter... anyways I learned Milkshake was written for and later rejected as a Brittney Spears track. also apparently in huff Pharrell told Kelis he'd wish he had given to Brittney instead... i'm not seeing Milkshake as Brittney track

Caetano’s first album released in 1967 was a bossa nova record with Gal Costa. It’s lovely stuff but much more in common with Joao Gilberto than the frenetic tropicalia stuff he would become known for the next year. Really tough to find an original copy of this so I settled for a reissue I think is a bootleg.

I haven’t listened to Patsy in like five years…way too long. Not sure why.

I like this late 80s version of her Greatest Hits cause of the album cover. The original greatest hits has her looking like a housewife or something. Obviously the record label decided in 1988 that times were changing.

The song selection and performances on this are unimpeachable.

I believe Patsy was from Winchester Virginia or thereabouts…The younger Loretta Lynn was a good friend of Patsys and I saw her play in Winchester…she talked about Patsy being from there…

Patsy’s death really was a great loss.

Post by: Starsky on August 03, 2022, 09:27:06 am

That’s a tough question to answer….it’s not so much an album as a compilation of tracks cut between 2017-21 with a reggae producer. I’m digging it but only time tells….the usual very comfy loose reggae vibe… I think Manu Chao is a part of my cultural DNA by this point….so engrained… so it’s impossible to be objective. For whatever reason after about 2001 Manu Chao for all practical purposes ended as a public creative and sales force. I mean this album is basically a private release with no PR. He just doesn’t care about putting out new music….certainly doesn’t care about selling it or even touring the US again. He’s just been gone from the music biz. But at the same time he just does things DIY. The Joe Strummer influence is really strong with him. I noticed he is doing some shows in Europe.

This is really up there as one of my favorite live recordings ever..a stoned radio session in Genoa during the protests partying and making music with a bunch of friends from all over the place. It’s so intimate you feel like you are there with him..on a couple of songs everyone is so stoned they miss Manu’s cues

I've been trying to find out if there is a version of the ultra classic Rob Base & DJ Easy Rock "It Takes Two" where the line "Fuck The Big Mac" isn't bleeped. But, it would appear it's always been "clean" at least on the record and singles...

what's funny is I was watching this version from live at the Apollo and right as the line "I like the Whopper, Fuck The Big Mac" happens around the 3:10 mark Rob puts his hands and mic in the air, so he's rapping on top of his own vocals and the bleep is still there.

https://youtu.be/890tquVAhD8

what's funny even on a compilation with a prominent Parental Warning sticker on it's still bleeped

Finally added to my collection. The guy who sold it to me on discogs - a new seller-charged $18.50 for shipping media mail from Wisconsin. Postage paid was $4.83. On the other hand cost of 4LP set was $30 and condition was listed as VG/VG when it’s VG+/VG+ if not better. Overall a great deal.

Black Braid
Black Braid 1

“When most people think of black metal, they think of pasty white Scandinavian guys shrieking about topics like pagan rites, death, rebirth, and nature in the middle of the woods. It’s about fighting back against cultural oppression (when it’s not rooted in outright bigotry).

You know who else has been oppressed and forced to forget their origins while their ancestral lands have been taken over by interlopers over the span of hundreds of years? Native Americans. That’s why the solo black metal act Blackbraid and his particular brand of black metal stands out. It’s all so very real…”

Drove up to Boston and listened to New Order PCL, Nick Cave Let Love in and Dig Lazarus dig,New Order live disc from Retro box set, and Stones’ Exile on Mainstreet.

All really enjoyable. Tried some jazz (Art Pepper) and didn’t work. Same with the Black Angels.

The Stones Exile is the perfect driving music.

The Temptations - Psychedelic Shack

Primarily to hear the original version of War.

Went to see the "Ain't Too Proud" the musical about The Temptations while in Detroit, which is of course a great place to see it

Anyways even though not a huge musical fan and a skeptic of those so called Jukebox Musicals (i.e. using already popular as material), but since it's based on the book by Otis Williams the last remaining original Temptation it was actually worth seeing.

Wasn't aware that "War" was originally theirs's, but they decided not to release it a single or promote it, which they sub sequentially did for Edwin Starr's version. "Ball Of Confusion" was then written as their anti-war anthem.

The Temptations + Norman Whitfield + The Funk Brothers were an absolute force to be reckoned with in the 70s

The group went totally "Behind The Music" in the 80s-90s with a ill fated re-union involving the classic lineup along with Eddie Kendrick and David Ruffin replacements. And then of course the deaths of Eddie, David, Melvin Franklin...

Finally got to visit the Motown Museum which at this point is just the original Hitsville House and one of the the other houses on that street also used by Motown. So not a lot to see right now, but wow what a thrill to walk into Studio A where all those hits were recorded..

Very much agree on Meddle. It’s also unique among great Pink Floyd albums by feeling light, positive, good vibey. It makes me think of Summer. There’s no dread. No paranoia. No psychosis or terror. Sure they say they are going to chop you up into little pieces, but you ignore it because the song has such a positive momentum. Even Echoes feels like it is making connections in space. Finding signs of light and life in space versus the void of the dark side of the moon

Townes is definitely an old standby for me… at least once a year I need it…Usually it’s Live at the Old Quarter which is one of my most favorite live albums….. but every once in a while I listen to one of his early albums which are all fantastic…..there’s like six or seven of them

House Of Love - A State Of Grace Guitar

A slight return to that early sound of theirs, but leaning more Blues-rock/Country-Rock feel plus a couple songs that harken back to their earlier days.

also gave a listen to Joe Strummer Mescaleros boxset and wow what a band and sound he had going before his untimely death.. i've heard most of the albums before, but it's nice to hear them as set..

I am finally through Meddle. I am slow, and find that I listen to podcasts more than music lately; the surest sign of my age. God, that first song, One of These Days, just blows you right on out and gives the indication that this album is "the later years origin stuff" that I have been looking for! I knew instantly I had heard the song before without knowing the title, but it did not ruin the sheer power of it. A Pillow of Winds was kind of a disappointment as I did not like the singing style of it at all. But man oh man oh man, when Fearless starts . . . you are taken to that Pink Floyd place where the past mental problems crawl out of. The singing style is still bothering me here, but the lyrics come across as so impressive and flowing with the guitar riffs!

San Tropez is fucking awful, sounding like a Grateful Dead throwaway. And what the hell is Seamus, but a song that I can tell sounds wonderful in rooms overflowing with bourbon and marijuana smoke. And then there was Echoes; the final cut bridge homage to what was coming from them later musically, as if they could foreshadow witness the icons of those three albums that I feel define them as a band. The ending of Echoes, when they come in like a cannonball shot singing at mark 19:13 to form what seems like a new song altogether, it is there you see the Pink Floyd that I lost my mind to from ages 16 to 19.

I am now curious, what Obscured by Clouds sounds like!

Ok this accurate and often just 'skip track'
thankfully the two shortest songs

dang....https://longlivevinyl.net/2018/04/06/pink-floyds-meddle-sells-for-4400-on-discogs/

some more interesting notes on San Tropez

The album was loosely based on Pink Floyd's life around this time. The whole band went to San Tropez with their then-girlfriends and had a great peaceful time, hence the peaceful nature of this song and the title.

San Tropez is not an island. It's a village whose real name is Saint Tropez on the french rivera
Although this song is dominated by Wright's piano (and even a great jazzy solo by him), this was one of the first cases where Waters had written an entire song (on acoustic guitar) and brought it to the group complete with no changes necessary. Wright was a big fan of Duke Ellington. He said Duke's concert in London was the only time in his life that he stood in line for a ticket!

also that the town now noted tourist beach spot was one of the Allied Landings that would play a large part in the liberation of France in 1944 (Operation Dragoon) and waters often used WWII for song inspirations

too be fair, I didn't really discover Meddle until the last decade

I bought this LP in Argentina but lost it or had it stolen when I moved back and left some records in storage with my old landlady. I had bought it for a song too. What are the odds? Anyways it’s bugged me until today. Bought an original sealed pressing recently. I feel whole after 20 plus years of missing it. Such a great record. There is a great little story in Bob Dylan’s Chronicles about him going over to Woody’s to pick up some lyrics but not making it cause of a snowstorm. He presumes these lyrics were the same as the ones Nora gave to Billy Bragg which turned into this record.

this was an interesting tidbit
The hip hop group the Beastie Boys made a music video for their song "Gratitude" that appears to be a homage to the film. Shot by David Perez in New Zealand in addition to copying its directorial style of slow horizontal tracking shots, overhead shots of the drums, close up shots of the bass and multiple shots of guitar filling the screen, the video shows a number of speaker cabinets that the group managed to purchase, still labelled "Pink Floyd, London". The video ends with a message that reads, "This video is dedicated to the memory of all the people who died at Pompeii."[45] The Beastie Boys claimed in interviews that the song and the video came about from their desire to progress from being a straightforward hip hop group and add vintage instruments and old sound equipment to their repertoire.[14]

I’m going to be listening to Gabriels - Angels and Queens Part One a lot, hopefully it comes out stateside on something other than streaming.. seems to be import only at the moment

And this is hell of a description for a album

The result is Angels and Queens Part One, a stunning mix of haunted gospel, stuttering electronics and timeless melodies. It's as if Marvin Gaye made a record with Portishead, then played it back at the wrong speed.

Great article on the group

I guess I never noticed-stupid me- that live on certain songs Sumner playsthe keyboard so no guitar….causereading theMorris book Ian really hated playing guitar and wasn’t good at it

This concert comes with the two cd expanded Still. Like all their live recordings- and there are so many- it’s fantastic….just no indication Ian was struggling with epileptic fits

Man was just listening to the live one included the Unknown pleasures (collectors edt) which is the April 1980 show at Manchester
(I agree, I'm amazed how good some of their live recordings are(well the bass never sounds as good as the recorded versions))

for a second I thought you were saying that Ian played guitar on the live versions..and I was like No fucking way
the end of that show is Novelty -> Transmission...jez Bernie is a fucking guitar god
possibly two of my favorite JD songs
their non album tracks are really some of their best stuff and substance is essential addition to their collection

but re read it and you said only on the closer songs that had keyboard
I mean LWTUAA is all bass, keys and drums....only that guitar in the intro

Sumner was such a great guitarist in Joy Division and early New Order. Fantastic guitar tone which can sound really harsh and menacing and crunchy. I love it. He is the ultimate post punk guitarist to me. It’s a true mark of his genius he got bored of guitar and got obsessed with synths and technology and kept growing but something was lost too. His guitar playing became very sedate and pretty as the 80s went on and he clearly got bored with the guitar. Same expanding horizons with Stephen Morris who also really got into digital sound, drum machines etc. They really took New order to a different level. None of this is meant to diminish Hook whose bass overlaid perfectly over the Morris/Sumner music. Never quite sure what Gillian does…or did on the albums; from Hook’s telling nothing! Maybe Morris’ second volume will explain this…it’s clear they needed her initially to play guitar so Sumner could focus more on singing and synths.

The other thing I can’t get over is how Morris claims coming up with the name new order had nothing to do with the third reich’s “new order for Europe”… I just don’t find it credible given Sumner and Curtis came up with Joy Division from a Holocaust survivor’s novella. It’s just such a bizarre coincidence that Joy Division had gotten flak for the name, some artwork, a crazy quote from Sumner introducing a song at a show AND by weird coincidence came up with the name for the Nazi’s reorganization of Europe but that’s their story!! In the Joy Division pictures Sumner looks like he lifted his dress from Germans, etc.

Also from Morris’ book it’s clear the band was split from Ian. It was Ian and the rest. Curtis always got the nicer rooms when traveling and many fans really were almost more Ian fans than Joy Division. It seems plausible that had Ian lived he would have gone solo after The Closer tour. Or maybe there would have been one more album but that’s it.

the end of that show is Novelty -> Transmission...jez Bernie is a fucking guitar god
possibly two of my favorite JD songs

found this out today...is it worth seeking a recording of this?

Transmission was played by The Smashing Pumpkins on their Adore Tour in 1998, with performances of the song usually lasting from 15 to 25 minutes
for some reason I could see the pumpkins fans not even knowing this was a JD song

Ok this is cool...hooky joined them onstage for this

The problem is that after a certain point Prince produced nothing but duds…not that he didn’t have a perfect record after ten years. Many artists produce duds but also great records after their initial decade or so of inspiration.

Bob Dylan’s Blood on the Tracks for example.

Prince really cratered in my opinion.

It’s funny how people insist Prince has all these amazing unreleased records in his “vault” and I don’t think there is one.

He dried up and lost interest. It’s not that unusual. What I find unusual is he couldn’t come up with even one kickass tune.

Post by: kosmo vinyl on October 17, 2022, 10:50:33 am

ok fine there were definitely hits on Diamonds and Pearls and Love Symbol in the early 90s

after that there was his "difficult" period with "Come" and "Chaos and Disorder" when he was feuding with Warner Brothers and probably not going for "hits". neither or these records are bad just not intended to be hit laden...

and yes the late 90s he was cranking out "artistic" stuff left and right on NPG records

i think had he released "Welcome To American" as intended in 2010 he would have had a hit or two, "Hot Summers" would probably have graced the charts...

prior to his death his work with 3rdEyeGirl produced albums that had him on the track back to hit making

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: sweetcell on October 17, 2022, 12:43:30 pm

2004's Musicology was a commercial success, the tour sold out, and the album, dare i say, contained a number of bangers. the purple one also stuck it to the music biz by one of the ways he distributed it: price included in the cost of a concert ticket. billboard and nielsen had to change their methodology...

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: kosmo vinyl on October 17, 2022, 01:39:19 pm

So having listened to both "Come" and "Chaos and Disorder" my hot take is that both of these continue in the vein of what he was releasing in the late 80s when it went from The Revolution to the New Power Generation. These albums easily contain solid deep cuts, just nothing that would have probably landed on the radio or released as a single, thus being considered a hit.

7 and Cream are great early 90s Prince songs.

The Beautiful Experience EP was strong in 1994. I think the single ‘Most Beautiful Girl in the World’ is little treacly but the remixes are cool . . . and sounded really great over the soundsystem at a Virgin Records in 1994.

Prince - Xpectation

An instrumental album that was released as an MP3 download on New Year's Day, 2003 to members of the NPG Music Club and later formally released via streaming.

Not unlike the Madhouse records he did in the 80s, it's a jazz fusion effort with him on keyboards and guitars along others musicians we was working with at the time and a well regarded classical violinist Vanessa-Mae

no hits to found here of course...

Fine fine fine… I’m working on a list just another 250 songs to work through..

And of course I can’t include anything off of Welcome 2 America because it scuttled for whatever released in 2010, had he released this I believe this would have been the start of his renaissance..

As the reviewer of this album points out his best output was when he had collaborators… and that a bunch of stuff released prior to his was recorded with highly talented players without much personality which resulted in expertly played boring songs

Fine fine fine…... which resulted in expertly played boring songs
seems like you are making my case for me
If you asked me to pick ten songs out of 300 by an artist I though was great
I could do that in 5 mins

again, sweets, since you seem to claim we don't know the purple magic that happened in this era
put up or shut up

I love prince and would love to be turned on to some gems I missed
but really seems like there is no there, there

your answer is going to be "nah", no matter what i post.

Are you guys saying Prince did anything as good as Little Red Corvette, Delirious,
Purple Rain, I could never take the place of your man, Sometimes it snows in April, etc after 1990?!?

I like some of his early 90s stuff but after that it’s hard to find anything redeemable. It happens…even geniuses lose their ability to write great songs. There’s no shame in it. It doesn’t mean he didn’t remain a great performer.

Yes, the guy who started putting out music at 30 falls into the .000001% exclusion I carved out.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on October 19, 2022, 10:31:12 am

There are plenty of artists who put out masterpieces after 30. I just don’t believe they did so consistently. And they certainly no longer captured the zeitgeist.

And one can’t say Bowie was forward looking after 1982. Or Dylan or Cash or Petty or Cohen.

But Bowie’s low came out about a week after he turned 30. But he is a remarkable exception to the general rule.

There may be other great examples. My favorite musician, Andres Calamaro, came out with his best work between 1996-2000 and he was 35-40 years old. He had been successful since the early 80s. Another Argentine , Charly Garcia, comes to mind. In fact when you look international you see lots of great examples such as Gainsbourg, Joaquin Sabina, Caetano Veloso, Jorge Ben. But within the rock and pop idiom being over 30 is almost tantamount to being dead.

Suicide were notable late bloomers.

Bob Dylan with Time out of mind
Leonard Cohen with You want it darker
Bowie
Petty
Cash

Underworld put out all their great stuff after the two founders were over 30. Their Drift box set which only came out a few years ago is incredible.

What is notable about Prince is he cratered. There isn’t even one song that can sit on his greatest hits from his last 10 years.

We've had this conversation many times and you continue to not possess reading comprehension. I never say "no one put out good music after 30" or "the second an artist hits 30 their music becomes shit" which you always seem to be retorting to. I say artists BEST work comes before 30. Literally every person you listed (with the exception of Underworld, a group whose members have no sub-30 material) had their best work before 30.

And no, I don't want to debate Blood on The Tracks for the fifth time. Its fine. It's also not in Dylan's top three. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on October 19, 2022, 10:46:28 am

Don’t flatter yourself. Am not debating with you just posting my thoughts.

Underworld did have albums before 30 . Two as Freur and two or three as an earlier incarnation and they are abominable.

And if we accept Bowie’s Berlin trilogy as his high point- as more and more people do every year, Bowie peaked after 30.

There are remarkable exceptions. I added to my post above.

Another incredible exception might be arguably the creator of rock and roll: Chuck Berry who would have turned 96 today. Almost all his seminal stuff came out in his 30s.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on October 19, 2022, 10:52:39 am

Another great example of an artist that indisputably peaked after 30 is Nick Cave. I think he peaked around 1994 which is I think in his mid 30s! The stuff he put out in his 20s has its moments and there are incredible songs but there are also clunkers and the scuzz bucket Cramps/Gun Club blues rock can be unbearable

Again, an exception but they are out there….

yowza that's a weak take
I'd say after that Its hard to find great stuff.
But I would say that's the end of his great run
Blue Jean came out on Tonight, but that's the only redeming song on Tonight
His later stuff has some decent stuff, but not really of the caliber of his work from 71-83

The issue is not just about the actual music but about what type of music we are talking about. If we are talking about popular music or say rock and roll then it’s about music for the young and for youth culture; largely preteens, teens etc. obviously for a musician to be able to write music that youth can identify with, process etc the musician can’t be in their 40s!!

This is why if we move away from popular music we find plenty of artists peaking after 30 even if their music is not as popular. Ryuichi Sakamoto for example. Ennio. Many

Surely as the forum leading expert on Prince you would have known,

a) This that PlectrumElectrum was a proper retail release on CD, Digital and Vinyl
b) It came out on the same day as Art Official Age which also charted

I chose the YouTube link because it easier then to link to Spotify, YouTube isn't the primary chose for streaming album, etc so I would say 50K streams is very reasonable. Same track on Spotify is 503K

moving on to Art Official Age I'll say this one is equivalent to Lovesexy and has a certified banger on it in "Breakfast Can Wait" with 5 Million Spotify streams and 500K YouTube streams.

3RDEYEGIRL, is an American funk rock band and was Prince's backing band from his 2014 return to Warner Music until his death in 2016. It was a trio consisting of the American drummer Hannah Welton, Canadian guitarist Donna Grantis and Danish bassist Ida Kristine Nielsen.[2][3] Together with Prince, they released the LP Plectrumelectrum on September 30, 2014.

After Prince's death in 2016, Hannah and Joshua started their own Christian ministry in 2018.

This always gets referred to as the record Bowie was really into when he moved to Berlin. In fact, Froese (founder of Tangerine Dream) was his and Iggy’s initial host in Berlin while I guess they looked for a place.

It can be hard all these years later and with the development in technology to hear what exactly bowled over Bowie although it’s a very enjoyable listen.

After all these years I have decided to make a concerted effort to get into the German rock music from the 70s (commonly referred to as krautrock) beyond just Kraftwerk and a smattering of Neu and Can.

Upgraded from my Plain records reissue circa 2003 which came with a big scratch and that record store DC CDs in Adams Morgan refused to take back. They closed not too long after.

Even though this is all analog nothing is going to fix a couple of tracks that really have a weak ass mix…it’s meant to sound that way- it’s the way Kevin Shields mixed it so it sounds weak and then pumps up mid song- but I am never going to be convinced it should sound like that… there was so much hype about this all analog reissue that I thought he had fixed that but no. Still a complete classic. 31 years later still sounds fresh.

Charles Mingus - Mingus Ah Um

the evil streaming service creates an interesting weekly playlist and this week three of greatest recordings were included

Miles Davis - So What
Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - Moanin'

and

Mingus's "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat", so now along with "Better Git It In Your Soul" i'm soaking in some Mingus

Of course hearing those Mingus tracks made me want to listen to the Absolute Beginners soundtrack which of course isn't fully available via streaming or even for digital purchase... The movie was a bit of mess but what a soundtrack...

Absolute Beginners is one of Bowie's finest songs and most likely to make me get something in my eye... Also, songs from Sade, Ray Davies, The Style Council, Jerry Dammers and two amazing Gil Evans arrangements of two of Mingus's finest...

and interestingly enough there is a lyric version of the Miles Davis's "So What" done by Smiley Culture on the soundtrack

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7N_6k3x7ng

and wow the Wikipedia entry on Smiley Culture's death....

Now it’s Mingus “Oh Yeah” and it would make sense my forever cooler than me dad would have owned this one, as it was recorded during the brief period of time that Rahsaan Roland Kirk was in his group. Mingus plays piano on this one, with the fantastically named “Oh Lord Don’t Let Them Drop The Atomic Bomb On Me”.

I guess I could mention that my Dad used to drive Rahsaan around to gigs when he was younger and simply known as Roland Kirk

There are songs on this album that mean an incredible amount to me….”No tan Buenos Aires”, playing right now, gives me major goosebumps…incredibly Dylanesque BTW

seems weird not to, I can't imagine they are rolling in the money
just do it every 5-7 years, play 20 shows, then cash the checks

Tommy is still touring like crazy to 15 people a night
I'd also be happy with a westerberg solo show too

Edit...the internet says paul is worth $9mill...so I guess he's doing alright
https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/singers/paul-westerberg-net-worth/

Edit #2...Heard about the I don't cares...but this other stuff is new to me
While his last release was in 2016 with Juliana Hatfield as The I Don’t Cares, Westerberg has become internet-savvy and taken his career on a new path. He has released albums under the name Grandpaboy and most recently in 2017, he took to Soundcloud as User 964848511 to release a few loose singles and joined Bandcamp as Dry Wood Garage for a few more undercover releases. While his live appearances have dwindled, there is no lack of new music from Westerberg.

Listened to three of these Sault albums so far, lots and lots of great listening so far... hopefully people smarter then me will provide more insight on these as to who all is involved... someone ID Little Simz on one of the tracks and one would assume Michael Kiwanuka is on this somewhere as well along with his usual collaborators Cleopatra Nikolic aka Cleo Soul and Melisa Young aka Kid Sister. (yes i lifted this from i bio i read and would assume most of this is on the wikipedia)

Inflo the main man in Sault also produced Little Simz, three Adele Tracks and Michael Kiwanuka..

what hooked me to check them out was listening to what is still streaming and particularly this track

Living in America - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syGg5X5ds4k

and those five albums are only available to download from https://www.sault.global/ for five days password easily found on the twitter ;)

Special Interest - Endure

Lots of positive reviews/press for this one, out of NOLA punk, etc band. The lazy RIYL from me is Killing Joke. And of course I should have preordered it when it came with two bonus 7” singles.. me thinks everevolvinghatch will enjoy this one

Both on Bandcamp and elsewhere

What I was thinking about the new Phoenix album is why at this point they aren't releasing them in French. The lyrics aren't totally cringeworthy, but I can't help to think that in this case it would have worked better in French verses English. Pretty sure they have probably peaked in terms of popularity so an album in French isn't going to turn off fans. Or they could do it K-Pop style where the choruses are done in English the rest in French. I caught part of their live chat and the guitarist said basically they were bored with the limited sound of the guitar, which is why it's a keyboard oriented album.

Personally, I think they peaked with "It's Never Been Like That" and they have never matched the urgency of this one and the later albums have a good single here and there with far too much just ok tracks.

I had forgotten Elephant Stone wasn’t on the original debut album. Obviously it was added to the US cd and then Fools gold was added on subsequent US cd issues. Will have to check my LP copy.

Anyways it’s on this…

New Order - demos 1980. Recorded September 7, 1980 so less than four months after Curtis died but not less than two months as previously believed. All this stuff has been issued officially on the definitive Movement box. Stephen Morris sings two, Hook who can’t sing butchers Dreams never end and Sumner sings a previously unreleased song about Ian called “Homage” which was performed live two times - also in September 1980 including once in Boston- before being binned.

I find the September 1980 through PCL (November 1982) period fascinating.

Hey Kosmo, where ya been? This isn't Sault's first rodeo.

Quickie reviews of the five new Sault albums, in order of preference:

1: 11: This one is the true gem.
2. Earth: This one has some gems, but some tracks are skippsable.
3. God: The music is good, but every god damn song is singing glory to god.
4. Aiir: Listenable pseudo-classical, could server as soundtrack music. Probably won't choose to listen to it again but won't turn the station if I hear it on the radio..
5. Today and Tomorrow: Has a few decent tracks, but I really dislike psych rock. This is the one of the five that my daughter begged the hardest to get me to turn off, and I can't say I disagree.

Came across another POC releasing top notch records within the indie rock scene.

Self described as simultaneously a bitch and a fairy, this new album from Connie Constance “Miss Power” is very good and will definitely be a top release for me this year..

Came out the same day as Big Joanie and Special Interest.

Martin Duffy - Assorted Promenades

Further proof of this man's talent, this is his only solo release and it a collection of ambient, avant garde classical inspired tracks, definitely feels experimental. Worth a listen a listen or two if your into this sort of thing...

We have a digital antenna, but for whatever reason, NBC doesn't come in. All the others do. Whenever we want something on NBC (rare), wr have to pony up and get Peacock for a month.

We had the closed captioning on and it said "David Burns." I said " Wait i think it's really David Byrne." And for a second my wife insisted it was David Burns, until she didn't.

Sia is one of the greatest voices of our time!
I somewhat agree, it was just such a weird duet
It was kinda of odd that we were even watching that, as my youngest really wanted to watch NYC, but by mistake we were watching the dolly one at all

trust me, my jaw hit the floor ... 'is that david byrne?'
but then his vocals sounded nothing like the original and just made the song sound worse
that's my gripe

I did not see this live and just watched the clips. The songs with Miley work because they trade vocals. The song with Sia was absolute garbage because they’re just singing over top of each other and it was very garbled.

This is a random ass lineup for a major broadcast network in 2022. Has Sia even done … anything … in five years?

Sia rocks. I do not like to read these comments.

I believe she did some soundtrack a couple years ago. I think her Christmas album came out in 2017. Just an incredible Christmas record.

When artists break through they begin to do less stuff . I think the reason she was on the NYE show was to begin promoting a new song which she performed. Sort of coming out of hibernation moment.

BTW I just read on Wikipedia she is on the autism spectrum (like Byrne)? I had no idea and not sure it’s true. The problem with the song she did with Byrne was that Byrne was clearly reading the lyrics off of a teleprompter but that’s going to happen on these types of shows. I thought it was real sweet when Sia blurted out at end of song “I love you David Byrne”and a touched Byrne went “Awwwh.”

My comment is not about Sia not rocking I’m just saying he and Miley traded lyrics back and forth, each getting their chance to sing and be heard. On the Sia track, they’re both singing 100% of the lines and he’s like a quarter step behind her for much of it because he was either unfamiliar with the song or reading off a teleprompter. It just came out muddy as all. Both David Byrne and Sia are great I just don’t know why they moved off the trading-lines format of the other performances.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Starsky on January 02, 2023, 08:04:54 pm

Yeah…who knows probably cause they weren’t confident Byrne could do it since he didn’t know the song. By both doing it in unison they covered for each other although at the beginning I thought Byrne did lines by himself and it was the most awkward part….

These things are always train wrecks (if you look closely)

When Sia sang that one song with Miley for which Paris came out at end (BTW she looks identical to 20 years ago! How?) and they finished the song Sia went to hug Miley but Miley was oblivious and busy hugging Paris…Sia was left hanging for an uncomfortable amount of time. Since Sia co-sung with Miley and Paris only came out at end of song was pretty wrong but show biz is a cruel biz. Then Sia tried to hug Paris whose body language also exuded “Who is this freak?”

correct, the guy's name is Jay Kay.

however, jamiroquai = jay kay, and jay kay = jamiroquai. he's the only remaining original member, it was "his band" from the outset, he's the main writer/composer, etc. there is no band without the man, sorta like NIN and trent reznor: if trent reznor retires, NIN retires.

You can take the Irishski out of Ireland, but...

In his autobiography, Rotten – No Irish, No Blacks, No Dogs, Lydon wrote of being from an Irish background in London in the 1960s: "Londoners had no choice but to accept the Irish because there were so many of us, and we do blend in better than the Jamaicans. When I was very young and going to school, I remember bricks thrown at me by English parents... We were the Irish scum. But it's fun being scum, too.

agreed, new to me and after grooving to it, did a little homework and quite an impressive history

The song is reported to have inspired Nelson Mandela with hope during his imprisonment: Ibrahim recalled in a May 2012 interview for Voice of America's JazzBeat that the record was smuggled by a lawyer into Robben Island, where music was banned, and played in the control room over the loudspeakers, and that on hearing the song Mandela said: "Liberation is near."

Bootleg pressing but sounds better than almost all Ween vinyl. Spread out over two slabs of vinyl which helps. Might be the best bootleg pressing of an actual album that I have heard.

From the 5 LP Cuban jam sessions box set reissue that came out a few years ago. NYC salsa in the 1960s and early 1970s built on this and IMHO far eclipsed it but these are essential.

Post by: kosmo vinyl on February 03, 2023, 10:40:18 am

2023 is shaping up nicely with some great albums so far

Belle & Sebastian "Late Developers" - My first thought is this is a collection of possible B-Sides for last years album as they sound as if they are stretching to bring in more of their influences into the record. But it works really well and "Will I Tell Your Secret" is the best Cat Stevens song written in awhile.

Gaz Coombes "Turn The Car Around" - The Guardian gives it 5 Stars and says it's his best album in 20 years, no need to dispute this. It's a great listen with lots of interesting layers.

Out today Hifi Sean & David McAlmont "Happy Endings" HiFi Sean is Sean Dickson of BMX Bandits and Soup Dragon fame who is primarily working as Deep House DJ Producer these days. David McAlmont is probably best known for his record with Bernard Butler. Anyways, been waiting for this whole album to come out and it's like getting an awesome mixtape from a cool friend. Given Sean's background it's not surprising how it moves between genres so smoothly.

https://plastiquerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/happy-ending

Another new one today is Hamish Hawk "Angel Numbers" his second album produced by Rod Jones from Idlewild. Lazily this a bit like Idlewild meets The Smith. Definitely going to get repeat listens

Vintage R&B
Henrik Lars Wikström • Anders Johan Greger Lewen

Long story short... I was re-watching the PBS Hip Hop making a note of the songs used in and and Shazamed what I thought was a 70s funk track. Turns out it's from a recently released music catalog album of Vintage R&B sounding tracks :o Guess the producers of the doc were trying to cut costs with the use of a Music Catalog track and I wonder if anyone has ever done a cover of this type of track. In all this album is really well done and could almost be passed off as a collection of really rare tracks.

the track that sent me down the rabbit hole

Bruno and the Outrageous Methods of Presentation

Bruno and the Outrageous Methods of Presentation is a situationist / aktionist un-group / paramilitary masterminded by the precocious teenage brat Bruno Bof Wilkinson. They play a staunchly uncompromising brand of outsider punk influenced by various forms of occult underground sounds. They are a culmination of everything important to have ever happened in culture and the universe

dive right in there are many many songs to choose from here... he's only 17 and been doing this for awhile

Often the gumbo approach to recording an album doesn't always work but I'm enjoying the heck of out of this one by Young Fathers - Heavy Heavy

https://youngfathersofficial.bandcamp.com/album/heavy-heavy

lifted from the Qobuz review

Young Fathers borrows a little bit from a lot of genres—hip-hop, mbaqanga, alt-pop, noise pop, punk, gospel, to name a few—for something that is truly avant.

More late career Art. A live record cut in Japan in I think 1979.

What I find remarkable about Art is that after being off the scene for about 15 years due to multiple jail times, heroin, being part of a cult, etc…he came back and recorded some incredible stuff between 1975-1982 before his body gave out. Arguably his comeback years were the peak of his career

This record has a skip but since I paid only a quarter for it I don’t really care.

thanks for providing a jumping in point
and yes, every comment mentions Bosch

but this comment from Chet bakers drummer was worth reading the comment section
I worked with Chet Baker for many years, and I remember being with Chet on the grass above Santa Monica Beach, and we were talking about different musicians that we liked. I mentioned how much I liked Art Pepper, and Chet looked at me with a smile on his face and said that 'Art Pepper was the most lyrically swinging Alto player ever'!!- And I completely agree. I've always loved Art's tone & phrasing. Man, Art can make me cry & conversely, lift my spirit to the heaven. Artt Frank long time drummer with Chet Baker.

I assume you knew this was for his daughter

Patricia Ellen Pepper is the estranged daughter of jazz musician Art Pepper. It is assumed that after her mother and father's divorce, Patricia moved with her mother, whom later remarried. There is no other additional information found after their divorce. More... According to the documentary film "Art Pepper: Jazz Survivor," his ex-wife took 12-year-old daughter Patricia to visit Art in prison; thereby proving to their daughter that Art was an animal unworthy of his daughter's love and respect. After being released from prison, Art learned that his daughter, then 30-years-old with two children of her own, lived nearby. So he contacted her, but she didn't want to see him or talk to him, and never did thereafter. In frustration and grief over the estrangement, Art composed his hauntingly beautiful blues Ballad "Patricia."

This is such an underrated album…by 2004 very few people were paying any attention to Luna. They had lost a lot of their fanbase and been written off but this album is my third favorite after Penthouse and Bewitched. In DC they had gone from sold out shows at the 930 to non sold out shows at the Black Cat and Dean Wareham was looking worse for the wear. The Luna movie Tell me do you miss me documents this period well. It wasn’t a surprise when they bid adieu shortly after Rendezvous. I wish they had made this record five years prior (after Pup Tent). The first five songs are perfect. Britta’s bass on Astronaut always makes me happy in its Hookian derivation. New Order as usual is an underrated influence on Dean.

Am definitely due for a Luna show. I haven’t seen them since their Penthouse show in late 2019.

Fantastic album. Potentially in my top 100. Certainly in top 3 Dylan albums. Original pressing. I have many copies of this record but this one is surprisingly playable. Picked up recently for a mere $3. I prefer mono on the first four Bob albums as the stereo effect is weird when all you have is Bob’s voice, guitar and harmonica. Also, people may notice the difference in the cover picture crop (what a picture of Bob and Suze Rotolo walking in the Village!)between mono and stereo. This of course has Bob’s breakthrough hit Blowing in the wind but also great songs like Hard rain’s gonna fall, Masters of war, Don’t think twice it’s all right, Girl from the north country. What a great album. It had to be or Bob’s career was over as his first album had stiffed. At this point Bob figured out how to take classic folk tunes and discreetly- without giving up the house- turn them into original songs and he was writing tunes so fast the original withdrawn pressing had four songs that were replaced by new songs. There are very few copies of the original and it’s a holy grail record that now sells for silly money.

Ghost Riders is a collection of a bunch of otherwise unknown American Garage bands from the 60s inspired by the British Invasion. Always find this a fun listen.

One of the best band names ever Decompressed Impossibility

"Across 17 open hearted ballads recorded 1965-1974, the 2LP collects and connects dots between British Invasion fanatics, child prodigies, the loners and the luckless, in a kind of trans-continental survey of those swept up in rock’n’roll mania and buoyed by local newspaper ads promising fame and gold records."

Danny Goffey - Bryan Moone's Discopunk

Latest Supergrass member solo record.. many catchy tunes kinda of Britpop meets early new funky new wave... hearing shades of Talking Heads/Tom Tom Club influences on some of them.

a case of when the review peaked my interested in to listening to it... this is the first solo album for the 68 year bass player for the Raincoats, produced by Youth it's got the fun dubby sound to it

Going on the Bandcamp wishlist

About three months after cutting his seminal Meets the Rhythm Section in January 1957, Art went in and cut another record for an audiophile label which put the session out on a very limited basis on reel to reel in nascent stereo. So not many heard it until the Japanese reissued it in 1975 (pictured) and then Blue Note finally gave it an American LP release in 1980 as Alpha Omega.

Shortly after this session Pepper pulled one of his many disappearing acts and went to jail. His sessions in the late 50s are few and far between. He was a heroin junkie pretty much his entire adult life until his body gave out.

This record (augmented by the Japanese with another lp of previously unissued remainders from the same sessions) is a delight.

Hello Mary - Hello Mary on Frenchkiss Records

Feeling nostalgic for the early 90s, specifically Veruca Salt and Belly? Then check out this debut by a NYC trio, lots of noisy guitars, soaring harmonies, pounding rhythm section. Produced by Bryce Goggin who has produced/engineered many a noisy guitar over the decades... including Pavement, Dino Jr, Lemonheads, Spacehog, etc

lifted from Qobuz review

They've already been praised by Belly's Tanya Donelly and Luna's Britta Phillips for their big, dark grunge guitars and bittersweet harmonies.

weirdly the whole album isn't on Bandcamp, just all the singles leading up to it..

Fake Names - Expendables

I thought by law all Fugazi related projects were to mentioned in these parts..

anyways I totally judged the group by it's name when I saw, name suggests lame indie rock... but, i saw the review and turns out it's quite the punk super group...

Fake Names is almost exactly what you want from a supergroup made of members of Minor Threat and Bad Religion (guitarist/vocalist Brian Baker), Refused and The (International) Noise Conspiracy (singer Dennis Lyxzén), Fugazi and Rites of Spring (drummer Brendan Canty), S.O.A and Embrace (guitarist/vocalist Michael Hampton), and Girls Against Boys and Soulside (bassist Johnny Temple): loud, fast, in-your-face.

Diving into their 90s releases when they bit of anomaly with a rapper being backed first by a five piece band and then an added 3 piece horn section.... Definitely early Hip Hop vibes here with the live musicians bring the funk

Curiously I found this at a thrift store inside a case for Bob Dylan’s Freewheelin’. I looked for the right case but couldn’t find it.

And if you’re wondering: I can’t tell much difference between this version and the regular version. Truth be told never heard a bad sounding version of this album and the CDs all sound audiophile to me.

Didn't have any must listen to new releases today until I heard about Das Koolies which is Super Furry Animals minus Gruff.

First EP from them is out today

Hit-writing anti-icons, Das Koolies emerge to explode three decades of digression as Super Furry Animals with the electronic depth-charge debut EP: The Condemned

Huw Bunford, Cian Ciarán, Dafydd Ieuan and Guto Pryce restore original Furry vision with techno-inspired, heavy-tech sound inspired by illegal rave roots.

White Stripes - Elephant

If you are on music twitter you would have seen where some bro claimed the White Stripes would have been bigger had they had a better drummer. Which basically music twitter, except for a few remaining idiots, said Nuh Uh to.

Bro has since offered the rare actually sincere apology for the tweet

One idiot claimed "Seven Nation Army" was "written to minimize what is asked of her", but if providing a solid backbeat is what is called Meg provides it in spade. Plus, they were recording to analog tape so you know her drumming is going to live and not stitched together.

What I'm noticing about Meg's drumming is she plays with much for dynamics then a lot of drummers, because as many pointed she plays with more feeling than most.

Anyways, Hypnotized is the best track on Elephant....

It’s been a long time. Right as covid was starting, in fact. But this Sunday, March 26, I’m spinning some roots tunes with the Grand Ancestor crew down in Adam’s Morgan. Should be good! Come hold a drink, nod your head, hell shake a leg if you’re inspired. Nothing but roots reggae of the past into future sounds.

Section 25 from 1983 I think…co-production by Bernard sumner who basically did the synths while a friend from a certain ratio did the drum machines…this was recorded around the same time as PC&L and Sumner is learning learning constantly which accounts for the huge difference between new order in 81 and 83…. Steven Morris, at the same time was learning how to program newly emerging drum machines…put them together, overlay Hooky’s bass and you have neworder

Pretty cool stuff…about 6 years ago I sold a copy I had found at a goodwill and regretted it when I got more into new order…I was able to get a nice copy on discogs for about $6 which is unusual …. Artwork is by Peter Saville

And I’m pretty sure Ibeke Shakedown came together as they in the pit orchestra from the Fela musical years ago. I get the impression they are all working NYC musicians who do whatever gigs they can get and this band is probably what they do in their spare time.. lookup Breakdown Brass as it’s another group put together by a member of Ibeke Shakedown.. this is one of the few times I ever clicked a an on The Facebook to learn about a new group

A Sire Records playlist which is reminding me of so many great albums from my past.

This is a great summation of Sire Records from the NPR news piece on Seymour.

STEPHEN THOMPSON, BYLINE: When I was in college radio and I was kind of learning how to be a music nerd, there was such a stark line. Like, you could be underground and cool, or you could be mainstream and terrible. Sire Records and Seymour Stein found ways to kind of fuse those together.

Definitely need to re-listen to the "My Life in the Bush of Ghosts" from Brian Eno & David Byrne such a classic and oddly prior to Seymour's death I was reminded of Book Of Love who I haven't listened to in years.

Art Pepper - Intensity (UK test pressing)

This album was recorded in 1960 (but released in 1963). Art’s last session as a leader until 1975!! His final masterpiece for Contemporary Records where he put out six killer records in a row. He spent a lot of the next 15 years in the grasp of heroin, in jail and in a cult.

This since I got up…fantastic, beguiling and fascinating all in one….sort of like a baroque pop Joni Mitchell with hints of religion. I need to keep this in steady rotation. Been a few years since I dug it out. This album was the first release on Geffen’s asylum records around 1973 I think…beating out the Eagles and Joni….unfortunately it sort of stiffed…she cut one more album, dropped out and became a heroin casualty.

Title track is so good with Eddie Hazel soloing throughout. Does remind one of Ween’s great tribute to him “A tear for Eddie”

I read somewhere that Deaner said Hazel’s Maggot Brain solo is the one he rips off most.

Lots of fun new releases today

Everything But The Girl - Fuse This will definitely be one on repeat for awhile

Brooke Coombe - Black Is The New Gold - They are calling this mixtape as it's collection of her previously release tracks. Looking forward to hearing more from her in future.

The Heavy - AMEN - Ok the lyrics are a bit iffy, but lots of swagger and big riffs. Perfect Friday afternoon album...

Ian Hunter - Defiance 1 - Ian's voice isn't quite what it use to be, but the reality is his voice was always a bit gruff and perfect for rock and roll. Hearing lots of interesting things with the different guest musicians on this one.

I can't believe I actually unearthed the name of this group. With all the chatter about True Believers and Cowpunk, I was reminded of a group with a Cowboy/Western image with a unique guitar lineup. But the name eluded me at first and it came to me..

The Unforgiven where a sextet with four guitarists and so called gang singing. They arrived on the scene in 1986 and were signed in a bidding frenzy and lasted one record. One member Johnny Hickman became a member of Cracker.

And yes this one holds up as well as one would except for an album/group like this..

These description will curl the toes of most here, but it was 1986 so excess is best...

At their core, the Unforgiven were an American version of Big Country borrowing the Last Gang in Town persona of the Clash: messianic rockers determined to follow in the footsteps of U2 right into an oversized arena

https://www.elsewhere.co.nz/albumconsidered/4238/the-unforgiven-the-unforgiven-considered-1986-the-band-that-died-with-its-boots-on/

this cracks me up
I think Hickman was surprised and slightly embarrassed that not only did I know of his previous band, but that even at the far end of the world from New York they had made an impact.

(I did assure him however that no one else I knew in New Zealand was aware of them, and he seemed a little relieved.)

When I asked him what happened to the other guys in the band he said dismissively, "I guess they went back to being teachers".

Well I never said The Unforgiven was cowpunk, it was just I remembered there was a group with multiple guitar players,etc.

and honestly True Believers weren't really cowpunk either

the only "cowpunk" really mentioned so far is Rank And File and if you can't enjoy them well...

I'm sure Bagley can fill us in the best of Cowpunk as well as another esteemed boardie :)

Beastie boys- Ill communication or Check your head 2

To my life as I lived it the sound of 1994. Hatch and I used to go to crowbar and people always played this on jukebox. There are plenty of albums from 94 that had a bigger impact on me but this album just felt like the sound of that year. Probably my first exposure to a lot of great music including Jimmy Smith. A few years later I picked up the Root down yellow label promo for $1. Ridiculous score. Still have it. My better half saw Jimmy Smith at 930!!! So jealous. I was- pardon my Space copy- living in Buenos Aires so I missed it. Big regret.

Such an amazing album…. Recorded January 1976 for $6400. One of my best scores was this first pressing in the 2000s for $1 at Orpheus. Not too many of these around. Initially it sold poorly and they changed the catalog number pretty quickly.

Talking Heads - Naked

Today I learned that Kirsty “Makes Everything 10 Times Better” MacCall sang backup on two tracks on this one, specifically the bands last single “(Nothing But) Flowers”

Also Johnny Everywhere Marr is on five tracks as well.

The stats listed in the “(Nothing But) Flowers” would have been alarming in 1988, I shudder to think what they would be like updated.

The 'Mats - Let It Be

The level of chaos on this album is amazing, especially on "We're Coming Out" what a 2:21 that is

And is probably a controversial take their version of "Black Diamond" is far superior than the original.

on the expanded version of this there is a out take of "20th Century Boy" which was left on the cutting room floor as it's just an OK version.

Can We Do Tomorrow Another Day?

Galen & Paul aka Galen Ayers and Paul Simonon (yes that Paul Simonon)

Galen Ayers daughter of Kevin Ayers (Soft Machine) and Paul do the so called Troubadour singer/songwriting duo act together. Does Paul have a great singer voice? Not really but it works in this context. They shift easily between English and Spanish lyrics on these songs.

Backing them on this record it's basically an offshoot of the The Good, The Bad And The Queen with Simon Tong on Guitar and Damon Albran adding some melodica on a couple of tracks. The whole affair is produced by Tony Visconti

It's a bit carefree and defnitely growing on me...

Saw one of those word of days things and the word is sockdolager - something that settles a matter : a decisive blow or answer : finisher

so of course is it a free band name or already taken and a least a couple groups have claimed it already including one that describes themselves as...

Appalachian funk rock jazz alternative metal boy band from Marietta, OH

so I listened so you don't have too and well...

actually not as horrible as one would think, not actually my cup of tea but they have the chops and quite slick...

Depresión Sonora

Came across this Madrid based artist and it's quite fitting that he is on that Darker Waves festival bill, heavily influence by New Order. The Cure, etc...

All the tracks are in Spanish and my snarky self assumes all the songs are about cars and girls, but I'm guessing the themes are much darker than that.

now if only hutch would get over his aversion to streaming ;)

couple of older indie EP releases on Bandcamp for him, but he's now on Virgin with a full length vinyl is available

Digging this album a lot. It’s more immediate, hookier and punchier than anything she has done in a long while. Jesse Malin co wrote three of the songs and gets a shout out for his “spiritual advisement “; must have gone to press before he got sick. One song is about Bob Stinson and has Tommy singing backing vocals. Album is dedicated “in memory of Bob Stinson a true rock and roll heart”. Two songs feature Bruce. Curiously, Lu’s singing - post-stroke- is clearer than it has been in a while. Ferrone from the Heartbreakers plays drums on seven of ten tracks. There are a few ballads that recall her slower songs from her prime (Jukebox, Stolen Moments). Margo Price and Angel Olsen help out on backing vocals.

Now I want to see her live again but I think she must have already come through? Edit: Jefferson Theater in C-vile on May 4 was her “local stop”….May have to wait til 2024 or maybe she will announce more dates.

Streamed all of the Written In Their Soul: The Stax Songwriter Demos boxset.

Lots of interesting early versions of songs here. Was thinking it would be worth buying, but not sure about 90 bucks for a 7 CD that may or may not be something I would routinely listen to.

Kinda wish there was a digital version with access to the info on each song

Are you assuming Shakira likes steak tacos because she's latina?

not assuming that, but if she eats red meat i'd be willing to bet that she would have like these ones. the marinated flank steak was simply excellent, and we had some really tasty homemade toppings (mango salsa, guac, fermented habanero hot sauce, black beans with cumin seeds, etc.). cheese and tortillas were store-bought, tho :(

i was living in Ecuador when this album came out, and it was HUGE. you couldn't go out to a discoteca without hearing "donde estas corazon" at least twice during the night. she went from a complete unknown to playing the huge soccer stadium in Quito (i wanted to go but for some reason missed out, still regret it). anyhoo, it's an album i've listened to a million times and is indelibly associated with a formative time in my life (first time out of school, first time in a foreign country on my own, learning a new language and culture, etc). hearing it again last night open the ol' floodgate o' memories.

I think they became a bit hippy like on Loaded…and even jammy (listen to the 2 disc version)

Phish even covered Loaded at one of their Halloween shows…

And remember they had spent a reasonable amount of time in San Francisco in the late 60s….

Ever seen pictures of the VU around 69? They definitely ditched the all black look.

But by vibe I don’t mean influence…just that I hear a bit of a GD vibe on Loaded

YMMV and maybe it’s a reach but that’s my opinion

The Replacements- Let it Be

I donated an original LP to the Hall of Records years ago when they opened. It is signed by Tommy with a doodle. I got it signed at a solo Tommy show at Iota. Sometimes I regret donating it…sometimes I think it’s cool.

The other donations I am a bit ambivalent about are a fully signed The Fall - This nation’s saving Grace and an original Minutemen Double nickels (which I have yet to replace and it troubles me a bit..)

We all make choices. Anyways I got a ton of points for those donations (and others) and used them for free tickets so…

Glen Campbell - Meet Glen Campbell

I stumbled upon this album from 2008 where Glen covers songs by Tom Petty, Replacements, Foo Fighters, Jackson Browne and Velvet Underground among others. He did it with the help of Jason Falkner, Roger Joseph Manning Jr. and Robin Zander.

In one review it's noted that "Times Likes These" is arranged like "Galveston". We all really knew it was a country song right ;)

Don't get me wrong none of these bands are unlistenable to, just not anything I would listen to on repeat. All different forms of frantic drumming, howling vocals and distorted guitars.

Belushi Speed Ball - Trash/Speed Metal

Owsley - S/T

It's shame Owsley's solo career never took off while he was still alive as this is a fantastic Power Pop album from him. He was Amy Grant's guitarist for many years and also worked with a number of other country artists, before sadly passing away in 2010 due to an apparent suicide.

There is of course the record he did with The Semantics early in his career, which in the early 90s was sort of a holy grail in the Power Pop community. It was set to be released by Geffen but it was dropped because "too pop for alternative and too alternative for pop." It eventually got a Japanese release. Zak Starkey was briefly in the band and recorded that only album they released.

The band's history is an interesting read as it's formation was intertwined with the early days of Ben Folds career.

In a sense, it sounds like what you’d expect from an artist immersed in the Third Man and Queens of the Stone Age universes—a heaping mass of abrasive, pedal-generated fuzz tones—except that Fertita, with his decades of experience, pushes that to another level entirely.

Trouser press (which usually is very spot on with their reviews)
https://trouserpress.com/reviews/janes-addiction/

The fact that the reviewer actually trashes Eric Avery’s bass is a major tell that this is a calculated shit take. Or he just doesn’t get it at all.

Jane’s (and Perry specifically) had a magic which maybe gets lost in translation out of context. I think the same is true with Bono and U2. You can easily see poseurs in retrospect, and the depth of their charisma doesn’t entirely make logical sense out of context, but for almost everyone in attendance, their concerts (Jane’s and U2) were transcendent and era defining.

Listened to Nothings Shocking again recently. One thing that struck me was that every song has a simple genius bass riff like a zen koan that is the soul of the song. Like Izzy Stradlin, it was easy to overlook that the guy you noticed least was the key to the operation. Another thing is that the production kind of sucks.

^can confirm with this take

Eric Avery (and Stephen Perkins for that matter) are grossly underappreciated for their contribution to the vibe of Janes's work
Summertime rolls...jez that bass line just gives me the chills

I can only imagine what their concerts were like in the late 80s early 90s
when I caught them at the club in 2011, it was incredible, but likely a shadow of what that early era was

Trust me, both those publications are sacred IMO, but I never forgot their shittakes on JA

I know there is an overwhelming consensus this is a desert island disc, just surprised the hate from people who typically know how to do their job

I do learn new stuff all the time...but knew little about the producer, who has some major chops to being with, but how much he influenced the song selection and sequence...now I want to hear that 18 track demo in the order that was in! (although shocked that I Would For You didn't make the cut...but that live version is un-toppable)

https://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/production-legend-dave-jerden-on-13-career-defining-records-586973
I went to see them on this one particular night at a club called Scream – it was actually in a hotel ballroom. There was a line of people around the block at 3:30 in the morning. I went in, sat in the back by the soundboard, and let me tell you, Jane’s Addiction took the stage, and they were awesome. I’d seen Jimi Hendrix at the Hollywood Bowl in 1968 – I’ve seen a lot of great concerts – and Jane’s Addiction were as good as Jimi or anybody on that night. They blew my hair back. I told my manager I wanted to work with them.
“I had this theory: Instead of making an album that people would love, I made a record they would hate. As a kid, I remember my favorite records were the ones that were always voted the worst by certain magazines, so I figured I couldn’t go wrong if I went that way
Amazing this guy had Robert C eating out of his hands...that's some 4D chess ;)

Edit 2: (maybe this is the key, but the order isn't right A Cabinet of Curiosities (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Cabinet_of_Curiosities))
Edit 3: welp here is more info https://defgav.com/sdw/recording/ "the sunshine demos"

Everyone points to Nevermind as the big turning point, but I'd argue that Nothing Shocking was the start of a movement that is still lingering today (not that it wasn't on the shoulders of others for sure)

Hmm...just realized that Pigs in Zen was only on the CD :(
just like Holiday on the Moon...kinda a let down when I got the vinyl

I first saw JA in 88 when they were on tour with Iggy Pop, not sure if I’d have heard of them prior to that. But, it probably prompted me to buy the CD. The thing I remember most about their set, was they brought out an ice cooler and stuck a microphone under it and proceeded to drum on it.

Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons - Kings Of The Asylum

saw this described as full of massive hooks and thundering riffs, which by law i'm required to check out

turns out Phil "Wizzo" Campbell was the guitarist for Motorhead from 1984 onwards... so of course this is going to be ROCK AND ROCK... and they say Rock is dead ::)

interesting tidbit the Bastard Sons are Wizzo's actual sons guitarist Todd, bassist Tyla, and drummer Dane.

Bonkers new release day... sidehatch has probably gone into hiding over a certain high profile one

The Coral - Sea Of Mirrors - Sound great as always from these lads, not nearly as ambitious as their last one, but I will enjoy it

Soda Blonde - Solid synth driven pop from this Irish group will listen muchly to this one

Lack Of Afro - I do enjoy a record form from Adam Gibbons aka Lack of Afro... getting serious p-funk vibes off a couple.

a bunch more to check out..

pitchfork skewered them (not that I take that as gospel), but found this last line kind funny

But as an album, Grapetooth feels like pressing ‘Play’ on those same recordings the morning after and realizing that maybe it all wasn’t quite as fun as you thought last night.

Piazzolla- 57 Minutos Con La Realidad

I guess his last recordings from 1989 before the stroke incapacitated him and he died in 1992.

Really his last 16 minutes of studio recordings padded by a contemporaneous live recording. Not sure the raison d’etre for this record. Kip Hanrahan who put it together seems ambivalent about it.

Post by: Hutch on October 05, 2023, 01:53:05 pm

I couldn’t make it through to the end….but a ways…

I could see this song really speaking to teenagers today…

Each generation has its own music.

But, yeah, I think Paul Simon did it first and with a much better chorus. Then again this is much sadder song whereas the Boxer is an uplifting anthem. The Boxer is about a fighter…this seems to be about someone resigned to things.. Then again Paul Simon “borrowed “ so many licks, chords, fingerings….

Either way, Boygenius is where most young people are at today… I think it would be a complete fraud or forced for a grown man to dig this… I just can’t get in that space anymore

They credit Paul Simon in the liner notes

Also, listen to the lyrics.. not just the melodies

It paints a picture of what it’s like to love someone dealing with a lot of mental/substance issues, and how everyone glosses over something so deeply devastating and debilitating and end up just talking about work and school …. When there is this giant elephant in the room

I just love Lucy’s line “So I take some offense when you say, "No regrets"”

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Hutch on October 05, 2023, 03:20:23 pm

Does it make it any better if you credit someone for using their music AND vocal melody?!?

I still think it’s pretty lacking in creativity. Strokes did the same copping the chorus from Dancing with myself and a part of Ghost in you.

Then again like I said Scarborough Fair Canticle is such a ripoff…if you are going to ripoff anybody please let it be Paul Simon…. We have all heard the Los Lobos story on The myth of fingerprints or listened to Graceland

I guess it’s all right but ultimately it’s about taking influences and bringing them together to make something new. Not sure this song accomplished that….even if it’s serious matter.

Well this picture is from at least 43 years ago I guess….and before she moved to Los Angeles.

In the south am going to guess most women wore dresses back then…

I had forgotten or not realized how good this record is…First time I saw her was about 1998 so 25 years ago

Just finished her autobiography and am on a major Lucinda kick…

Original deep groove Blue Note from 1959…pretty beat condition but plays through. $1 at a thrift store I hadn’t been in years cause they never had anything cool and I just kind of gave up on thrift stores. A complete fluke of a find…

Got this box set for $78.25 all in.

Knopfler’s first five solo albums (all 2LPs) plus an LP’s worth of extras.

My issue with Knopfler is his music got increasingly narcoleptic over the years but everything here is tastefully done and well executed and Mark is probably my favorite guitarist after Gilmour and maybe Grant Green.

But at this price one can’t say no.

Finding more and more deals on these box sets. They try to sell them at $200 and when they see it’s not going to sell out they blow them out.

My favorite Knopfler solo album - Sailing to Philadelphia- is only available on vinyl on this set but I expect that will change….it seems like everything is going to be on vinyl.

As always these brief passing thoughts are dedicated to the number one fan of what I am listening to, Julian.

It’s very synth heavy with a sound not unlike what Japan was doing at the time, very Mick Karn influenced bass lines on many tracks. Hearing some Talking Heads influences as well. One track sounds like it could have come off the B-52s Mesopotamia album

All in all an interesting addition to her already wonderful catalog

also here is a youtube playlist of some of what's been formally released today, as some of the tracks were already on the released on a couple compilations

Serious amount of fluffing going about this track..

and occasional solid commentary on it

but James Skelly of The Coral basically nails it

“We’ve isolated Lennon’s vocal and it sounds great”

“Let’s put a really loud annoying rim shot over it and compress the fuck out out of it”

https://x.com/JamesSkellyBand/status/1720082699019522379?s=20

and honestly the only reason I listened to it today is someone referred to as a 90s Power Pop band trying to sound the like the Beatles.. not really getting that, i guess the piano is really throwing me off...

another engineering/producer said it's basically been turned into the prefect Dolby Atmos demonstration track

of course this song was nixed by george the last go around

Songs like free as a bird, real love and this aren’t real Beatles songs no matter how many dozens of people work on them and how many instruments Paul overdubs on the demo Lennon left behind. Just horrible stuff.

Yoko put out at least two Lennon solo albums in the 80s with the better stuff he left behind so we are really scraping the barrel here….

here was a deep dive with a lot of context

Andrew Hickey
Thoughts on "Now and Then"

I couldn't post the whole thing...
The message exceeds the maximum allowed length (20000 characters).
So I broke it into two posts

As I assume everyone here knows, yesterday the Beatles released what was billed as "the final ever Beatles record", "Now and Then", a record made largely by Paul McCartney and Giles Martin, using as its basis a John Lennon demo tape from the late seventies, and also including some minimal guitar strumming from George Harrison from a brief attempt the three then-surviving Beatles made at finishing the track up in the mid-nineties, along with a newly-recorded drum track and backing vocals from Ringo Starr/

It is of course possible that there will be future Frankenstein-Beatles records, because there *do* exist a handful of recordings featuring Lennon and Harrison together that McCartney and Starr could theoretically overdub on, though those have been released already -- I joked on Bluesky yesterday that they could do a version of "How Do You Sleep?", because both Lennon and Harrison are on that -- and I could imagine a world in which some Let It Be-era outtake or something was polished up and finished, though the most obvious choice, "Watching Rainbows", was recorded without Harrison and so wouldn't fit the posthumous rule of the track having to feature all four Beatles. But given the age of the participants, and the legendary difficulty of getting any decisions at all through Apple Records, we have to assume that this really is it, the last new recording by the Beatles that will ever come out.

There's a lot to say about this, as a result, and so I thought I'd do a post here. If you haven't heard it yet,
you can find the audio at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW55J2zE3N4 . I'd recommend listening to the audio-only version, rather than watching Peter Jackson's video for the track, which is astonishingly misjudged and appears to have soured several people who enjoyed the track on it retrospectively.

The first thing to say is that this is an immense technical achievement. But by that I don't mean the flying in of Lennon's vocal. Extracting the vocal from the piano part no doubt required a great deal of processing power, but it's ultimately just a question of using demixing technology that's been around a fair number of years. Throw enough processing power at the job and it's relatively straightforward, and no different from what's been done to create the new stereo mixes of various sixties records (including the Beatles' own records, but also things like the recent reissue of the Beach Boys' Sounds of Summer compilation). It's not quite something that you can do on your phone right now (or actually maybe it is if you have a better phone than I do), but it's something you'll be able to do in five years' time on your phone.

Incidentally, people have been talking about this as "AI" and it's caused some confusion -- this is not "generative AI", the kind of large language models and plagiarism engines that are being promoted everywhere as the latest wonderful breakthrough by the exact same shysters who five minutes ago were promoting NFTs and Bitcoin as sure-fire ways to become extremely rich. Lennon's vocal here, what there is of it, is an actual recording of actual John Lennon, not something that's been generated by a machine.

Rather I'm talking about the technical *songwriting* accomplishment by which Paul McCartney has made, if not a silk purse then at the very least a perfectly serviceable handbag, out of something considerably worse than a sow's ear.

Because despite all the worry that comes along with things like this, I think while this may be the worst of the three Beatles reunion singles, it's in some ways the most artistically justifiable, and it's also more ethical than a fair number of recent Beatles releases.

To get the ethical question out of the way first, consent is important in all things, and obviously a dead man can't give consent to how his work is used, and that should worry people. But on the other hand it should worry us in *all* uses of a dead person's work. Would Shakespeare really consent to the film of Romeo and Juliet with Leonardo diCaprio in? Even passively keeping dead people's work available without alteration is an active choice being made about their work by others without their explicit consent.

In the case of this track, like the Beatles reunion tracks from the nineties, I don't think there are any ethical qualms to be had about its consumption. Lennon's widow, his son, and the people who were his three closest friends for much of his adult life, all said "we think he would have wanted this". They may certainly be wrong about what he might have wished, or have self-serving reasons for thinking that, or be lying about what they really think, but between them they undoubtedly knew Lennon better than anyone else, and certainly better than someone like me who never met him. If they all said "it's what he would have wanted", who am I to argue?

And I actually think this is far more ethical than many current decisions by the Beatles and others which go unquestioned (and to which I contribute financially as much as anyone -- I am nothing if not a hypocrite). Since 2017 it has slowly been becoming difficult or impossible to find new copies of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Let It Be, Abbey Road or Revolver, as those albums were originally released. (Oddly, the White Album, despite also having had the deluxe set treatment, seems immune to this). If you buy those albums on CD or vinyl now, what you're getting isn't the original album as released in the 1960s in either mono or stereo, but a modern remix by Giles Martin, a man who wasn't even born until after all those albums were recorded.

Andrew Hickey
Thoughts on "Now and Then"
Pt 2 (part 1 should be read first and is in the post before this...also it was a pateron only post, so couldn't share)

Now, I have no problem at all with remixing old records to try new things out, *as a new thing*. As a different way of looking at the material, as an interesting experiment. But these remixes to make the records sound more appealing to modern listeners have, rather than supplementing the original records, replaced them, and I think that's deeply disturbing for anyone actually interested in the history of popular music or popular culture. If you want to buy a copy of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, the actual album released in 1967 by the Beatles, it's very, very difficult to do so now. Not impossible of course -- with the millions of copies of the album in print, it'll likely never be impossible to find a copy -- but one has to make an effort. The new version has replaced the old as far as sales of new copies go. And that's worrying.

But on the other hand, there have been occasions when this technology has been used for entirely good purposes. I think what was done with the Live at the Hollywood Bowl album, for example, is a minor miracle. That album as it was released in the seventies, well after the group split up, was not in any way the result of an artistic choice by anyone involved. It was badly recorded and the music was almost inaudible due to the screaming of the audience. The 2015 reissue, using demixing technology, is just an improvement without any negatives to it -- it makes the historical recordings *more* accessible, in that you can actually hear what the musicians were playing.

But "Now and Then" as it's currently constituted doesn't have its roots in those remix projects, although Giles Martin is on board here as he was with those. Nor, really, is it comparable to the nineties tracks "Free as a Bird" or "Real Love", though those are the obvious points of comparison, and the homeopathic amounts of George Harrison left in the track come from those sessions.

Rather, to understand what's going on with "Now and Then", I think we have to look at two projects that came between those -- Liverpool Sound Collage and Love.

Both of these projects were the product of *radical* dissasembly, deconstruction, and reconstruction of Beatles recordings. In the case of Liverpool Sound Collage, the project *is* a collage -- something not dissimilar to "Revolution #9" in some respects -- in which McCartney and his collaborators Youth and Super Furry Animals have taken a small number of outtake recordings from Beatles sessions, mixed them in with other recordings (including McCartney doing vox pops on the streets of Liverpool, talking to passers-by) and created new tracks from them. The closest of those tracks to a conventional song is "Free Now", a track credited to Paul McCartney, Super Furry Animals and the Beatles, whcih is based around a loop of George Harrison saying "do what you wanna do" and some McCartney vocal improvisation, and which can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Zwd7LcGFKU for those who are curious.

Love, meanwhile, is a project largely supervised by Giles Martin but with the help of his father, Sir George, the final Beatles-related project the elder Martin took an active involvement in. That was the creation of a soundtrack for a Beatles-themed Cirque du Soleil show, one which was also released as an album. The soundtrack album was made up entirely of material from previously released Beatles recordings (with the exception of a new string arrangement for George's demo of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" -- the demo had been released on Anthology 3, but the strings were a new addition) but every track was reconfigured with elements of other recordings. So for example, "Within You, Without You"'s lead vocals and string arrangement were overlaid on the rhythm track and some of the sound effects from "Tomorrow Never Knows", while "Drive My Car", "The Word" and "What You're Doing" were turned into a medley, with the drum part from "Drive My Car" playing almost throughout, but also with snatches of horns from another track, and most of the guitar solo from "Taxman", while "Strawberry Fields Forever" became a montage incorporating bits of Lennon's original demo, the early takes heard on the Anthology set, and the finished single.

This kind of collage creation is a world away from the kind of remixing to make the original records more palatable for modern ears that we've heard in the recent "Deluxe" versions of the older albums. It's the creation of something genuinely new from older, familiar parts, and making a fresh new creation from it.

And that is, to a large extent, what Paul McCartney has done with "Now and Then".

When I first heard that McCartney and Starr were going to be completing the track, I thought it was a terrible idea. The publicity for the new single has tried to pretend that the reason George Harrison didn't continue work on the track in the mid-nineties was simply because he didn't think the recording quality on the demo was good enough -- and the demo does have some obvious flaws in that regard, most notably the 60hz hum heard through large parts of it. But the truth is that Harrison told McCartney at the time that the song was "fucking awful".

And, frankly, he was right. Lennon's original demo is a meandering, borderline-unlistenable, mess. There are at least four half-finished musical ideas in there -- a verse ("I know it's true/It's all because of you"), an overlong bridge which has at least two, possibly three, melodies in itself ("I don't want to lose you"... "but if you have to go...") and a half-finished other section ("Now and then, I miss you...").

To give some idea of the kind of surgery that's had to be done to turn Lennon's demo into an actual song, the length of his demo in the bootlegged version I have is five minutes and five seconds long. The version of the track in the "official audio" video I linked above (there are some slight differences in the mix used in the Jackson video, which has some tuning up at the beginning but is missing the almost-inaudible spoken remark from Starr at the end) is four minutes and eight seconds -- of which
forty-five seconds in the middle are an instrumental break that's not in the original demo, and there's a thirty-second instrumental outro that has no real counterpart in Lennon's performance either.

It's hard to say for sure without some more A-Bing, because both tracks have repeated sections and I'm not always sure if the new version is using different sections for the repeats or if it's just pasting the same bit of Lennon vocal in repeatedly, but I think there's probably a total of ninety seconds used of Lennon's original demo. McCartney has taken the "I know it's true" verses, turned the "Now and then I miss you" section into a middle eight and completed it, and scrapped all the other ideas in the track. He's then structured the remaining material into something that is actually a song, which Lennon's original demo manifestly isn't in any sensible sense of the term.

I actually suspect that while the story being put about that Harrison only had technical issues with the song is false, the spirit of it -- that he'd have been willing to work on it more if he'd had access to the technology used now -- is truer than one might think. Because it's only by totally stripping off the piano that anything like a continuous performance has been created here, and only that way could it be restructured into something that's not a mess.

McCartney has done quite a bit of subtle rewriting throughout the song, too. Some people have noted that Lennon's voice sounds very artificial on the track and put that down to the software used to create the track. I don't think that's what they're hearing -- watching the little mini-documentary that was put out to promote the track a couple of days ago, there's a section where we get to hear some of the isolated vocal, and it does sound stunningly clear.

Rather, what I think people are hearing is the layering that's been done *after* that, to smooth the gaps where Lennon's vocal drops out altogether. Throughout the track, McCartney is doubling Lennon, sometimes only very faintly and almost inaudibly (as on the first few lines, where Lennon's voice is clearest and where he has the lyric completely thought out), but his voice comes up in the mix where Lennon's vocal is missing odd words (like on the end of the second verse, where the lead vocal sings "will love you" -- McCartney sings the "will").

I also think there's some autotune, both on Lennon's voice and on McCartney's new vocals, but mostly what's been done seems to be to turn half-formed lines into full ones by creating a Lennonmccartney solo-sounding vocal. For example, in the section that becomes in the final track the middle eight, Lennon sings (starting 2:13 in the demo) "Tow [sic] and then I miss you/Oh, now and then I wan te dow de Turnham Green/I know return to me" as near as I can phonetically transcribe it. In the completed track, at 01:09, the same section is "Now and then, I miss you/Oh, now and then, I want you to be there for me, always to return to me". (And the same snatch of recording comes back at 02:03, a repeat that isn't in Lennon's original, though he noodles a similar bit of melody later in the track without singing).

The "I wan" and "return to me" in that section are Lennon singing lead. The "t you to be there for me, always to" are McCartney filling in the blanks. Obviously that section also has McCartney and Starr singing harmonies *as well* but the "lead vocal" part changing mid-syllable can only be done convincingly if there's a certain amount of artificiality to the sound.

To be clear, I think McCartney performing major surgery on Lennon's song makes the result a more authentic Beatles record, rather than less. Lennon and McCartney's collaboration was often in the form of editing each other's work, and sometimes extensively rewriting it (as when McCartney turned Lennon's sad acoustic dirge about being unloved and uncared for as a child into "Yellow Submarine") and what both men missed in their solo work was the ability of the other to find the core good idea among their bad ones and to polish it up for them and turn it into something workable. Both released plenty of fatuous solo work that could have been turned into classics with just a little bit of help from the other (as well as both releasing plenty of actual classics in their solo work).

There's been some debate as to what Harrison contributed to the recording, given that he didn't spend much time on it at all. He's credited for acoustic and electric guitars, but all the lead guitar is McCartney playing in what he thinks of as a Harrison style (it actually doesn't sound very Harrison to my ears, and the attempt at emulating his style is probably the weakest thing in the instrumental track). I assume from the footage of McCartney and Harrison working on the song together in the nineties included in the video that he's one of the layers of strummed acoustic guitar playing at points. Given he's also credited for electric guitar, I assume the staccato bits of electric rhythm guitar that appear from 01:40 (and which sound very familiar to me, like they're flown in from another song) were also him.

But of course even if he made no audible instrumental contribution on this track at all, he's vocally all over the track. One of the most effective things that's been done to the track is the flying-in of block backing vocals from John, Paul, and George from other tracks.

Supposedly these are from "Because", "Here, There, and Everywhere" and "Eleanor Rigby". I don't actually hear anything identifiably from the latter song, but in the instrumental break many of the "aaahs" are *very* identifiably from "Because" while the "oohs" are largely from "Here, There, and Everywhere". There's so much going on in the mix that I wouldn't swear to it, but my ears tell me there might be a bit of "Sun King" thrown in there as well at times (though the vocals on "Sun King" and "Because" are so similar that I could be mishearing).

Of all the Beatles, Ringo is the one who had least chance to shine in the reunion tracks, and the same is true here. On both reunion tracks, and now here, he had to play to a pre-recorded track, always a hugely limiting constraint for any drummer, especially one with such a nuanced sense of feel as Ringo, but not only that, the songs themselves are all plodding mid-tempo piano ballads which don't give any room for the kind of playing he could do on rock material, always his forte. McCartney and Harrison got to show off their vocal and guitar skills on "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love", and McCartney gets to do pretty much everything on this track, but Ringo is stuck playing a very straightforward part which, frankly, could have been anyone, and without even the mitigating factor on the other tracks which was that he was playing with his old friends. Here he and McCartney weren't even on the same continent when they recorded their parts.

Still, at least his drums aren't being recorded by Jeff Lynne (who has many positive attributes as a producer, but whose drum sounds are painful). And he is audible in the newly-recorded backing vocals, though not to anything like the same extent as McCartney is. He does as good a job as anyone could ask for on material that doesn't play to his strengths in any way.

Giles Martin has done a decent impression of his father in the string arrangement, but if anything he leans a bit too much on his father's style in an effort to make it sound "Beatley", which the rest of the track frankly doesn't. It's this that gives the track the initial impression I had, which is that it sounds like the Rutles.

Specifically, it sounds like the Rutles Archaeology album, much of which is Neil Innes trying to turn his own old solo songs into Rutles tracks by singing them in a Beatley voice and adding Beatles-style arrangements, but missing the mark because songs like "Questionnaire", "Knicker Elastic King" and "Eine Kleine Middle Klasse Musik" were fundamentally not actual Beatles pastiches. Giles Martin is trying too hard to turn a John Lennon demo into the Beatles, and ends up hitting Rutles Archaeology.

But there are far worse albums in the world than the Rutles Archaeology, and there are far worse tracks in the world, and even a few worse in the Beatles canon, than "Now and Then". Its main problem as a listening experience is that divorced from the circumstances of its creation it's merely a little bland, the kind of track I'd have said doesn't seem to have any reason to exist.

But of course it does have a reason, and that reason is Paul McCartney. The breakup of the Beatles seems to have hit the four band members very differently. Lennon, oddly, seems by the late seventies to have had the most mature attitude to it -- fundamentally "it was a good thing, they were important people in my life, but it came to an end as good things sometimes do. It's fun to look back at those times, and I miss them, but you can't go back". Harrison seems to have had a lot of resentment towards Lennon and, especially, McCartney over the way he was treated, while Starr seems just to be sad that his friends weren't all friends with each other any more.

But for McCartney, more than any of the others, the split seems to have been catastrophic to his very sense of self, and after spending much of the seventies and eighties running away from his past, he seems to have developed a psychological need to somehow "fix it", to make it better somehow. There's always been a recurring theme in his work, even when he was very young, of looking back at the past to see if he could pinpoint a mistake and change it somehow, and I think a lot of what gets called revisionism or dishonesty when people talk about him seems actually to be that. There's an Asimov story, The Dead Past, about a historian trying to build a machine to view the past so he can prove that the Phoenicians didn't really commit child sacrifice, who turns out to have as an underlying motive a worry, never fully voiced, that his own child's death had been his fault. One gets the impression -- and this may well be me reading far too much into things -- that projects like the Get Back project, and McCartney's constant stressing of the good times the group had in the sessions for the White Album and the Get Back sessions themselves, are him trying to look back, find the moment where it all went wrong, and prove to his own satisfaction that it never really did, to rewrite history in a fundamentally different way from the rewriting that goes on in the deluxe editions of the albums, to heal an unhealable rift, to make it not have happened.

And "Now and Then" seems to be a big part of that for him. It's something he's talked about a lot in the nearly thirty years since those sessions, and it is in itself the last bit of unfinished business from the *second* time the Beatles split up.

It also may have special meaning for him on an even more heartbreaking level. Apparently the last words that Lennon said to McCartney, the last time they met in person in 1976, were "think about me every now and then, old friend". McCartney was, right after Lennon's death, not just devastated as anyone would be at the murder of someone they were close to, but desperate to know for sure that things really had been OK between them at the end -- he reached out to Andy Peebles, the DJ who was the last person to interview Lennon, to ask "did he still love me?" in those words, according to Peebles (and Peebles reassured him that he did).

While the song as recorded by Lennon meanders all over the place and seems lyrically aimless, those parts of the song that McCartney has picked out to finish up, at least, do read as if they're a message to the other Beatles, or to McCartney in particular, and he seems to have crafted the song to be the message to himself he wanted to hear, perhaps the one that Lennon intended to send him but never did. In that respect, the song seems as much as anything to be a companion piece to "Here Today", possibly the most moving thing in McCartney's solo catalogue. That song asks what Lennon would say to McCartney if he were here today, and imagines him being rather cynical and denying they were ever friends. "Now and Then", instead, becomes Lennon ruefully admitting that he did miss his old friend -- not all the time, but occasionally, now and then.

Does that mean it's a song that I'll return to much once the novelty has worn off? No, probably not. But if, everything seems to suggest, this entire publicity blitz and technical wizardry was, fundamentally, all about helping an old man finally come to terms more than forty years later with the death of someone he loved dearly but who died when there was still unfinished business between them, that gives the track far more reason to exist than the endless copyright-extension boxes and remixes that have been coming out for the last decade.

Artistically, the Beatles' story should have ended with "The End", and nothing that followed that can possibly better it as a full stop on the group's career. But all we could really ask of "Now and Then" is that it not be terrible, not a disgrace. And somehow, miraculously, it isn't. That has to be enough.

I been reading that Emerick book and it’s really changed my way of thinking about the Beatles. It really was all about Paul and John. I didn’t realize how little Ringo and George did…. Now I am only at Peppers and of course Emerick has his biases….but if even half of what Emerick says he saw in the studio is true then I have given George way too much credit.

I read it and found it fascinating. The Beatles have been the one band I have loved consistently for my entire music listening life. I am thrilled to be able to listen to a "new" "Beatles" song even though I know it's not really. Still I am enjoying the song as I did the last 2 they made from Lennon demos.

Post by: Hutch on November 05, 2023, 12:47:09 pm

I love the Beatles but would rather listen to unreleased demos, session recordings, contemporaneous mixes and live recordings from when the Beatles were together and not this marketing exercise. A lot has come out but there must be more out there. Not sure why they don’t put it all out there in a systematic manner like say Bob Dylan has been doing. The anthologies were great as samplers but they were just the tip of the iceberg.

Still, I found the article interesting.

On lesser streaming services look for other formats of the albums, at least on Apple the new versions are listed that way. Apparently on the we screw over artists and pay people to spout dribble, it’s the same but that might be a premium feature I can’t see

Definitely agree with the author's POV of the new LP remixes versus an original project like Love. Abbey Road never needed a remix, it was perfectly mixed and sounded incredible! (which makes sense given it was the last recorded album and recording technology had improved leaps and bounds since 1962). It's similar to how I feel about George Lucas mucking up the original Star Wars trilogy with all those new effects in the late 90s when in fact the movies never needed it to begin with.

The people behind Apple Corps clearly know what they're doing with that coveted IP, but it's the content like releasing Glyn Johns' version of Get Back with the Let It Be re-release or the Anthology stuff that really fascinates me versus reissuing a mega-expanded Red and Blue album set.

Belle and Sebastian- BBC Sessions

The first three sides and sessions are fantastic. The last side and session has three out of four songs that aren’t Stuart singing and they are weak. No wonder they were never released as studio versions.

So 10 out of 14 are peak B&S with some fascinating differences from their well known and worn counterparts. Essential.

Am filling in gaps in my B&S collection.

The I Don't Cares - Wild Stab

While going through my library, I came across a group called The I Don't Cares and was like wait wasn't this a Paul Westerberg outing. Yup he and Julian Hatfield recorded this record in 2016. I had completely forgotten about this album.

Cool animated video from the album, with a nice nod to "Bastards Of Young" video at the start of it

https://youtu.be/4geuUkZzzig?feature=shared

was thinking this was the last thing Paul had released and remembered the four tracks he posted on Bandcamp as Dry Wood Garage in 2017.

Clouds - Thunderhead

Was reminded of this one, what a great record essentially the Aussie version of Lush.. although they do rock harder than Lush

You definitely don’t need it if you have another copy. This edition is through Newbury Records. 500 copies

And it was ridiculously priced

This was a good score for $5. Christmas at the airport is a cool tune.

Another great buy from oldies for $7.80. Maybe the best soul jazz lineup ever ? Leo Morris is Idris Muhammad.

I have an original copy but is a bit beat so this is an upgrade.

Got this for $5.60 from the Oldies sale and I am shocked to find these songs mostly have a pulse and sound like early Wilco. Best thing I have heard from Tweedy in a while. These songs sound off the cuff, have charm etc. There are even some nice Tweedy guitar solos.

Oldies owes me five more orders but am getting worried they will cancel them all as it’s been a while now.

An early Latin music lp (10”) from 1950. Columbia only started putting out LPs in I think late 1948. The FL 9500 series was Columbia’s original “international series”….stuff like Piaf, Josephine Baker etc.

Unfortunately pretty stained. Plays well for 73 years old. Not any names I am familiar with but good stuff.

A pretty cool find last week for $3. This 1960s LP reissue combines two Monk 10” LPs from 1953 and 1954. Luckily it’s in mono and not rechanneled (fake) stereo. One session includes Art Blakey and the other Sonny Rollins.

These sessions are from when Monk was still scuffling and even though his style was fully formed I guess people found it bizarre.

have you listened to WERA lately??
nothing on socials, but they don't have any programing anymore and just play a few smooth jazz tracks over and over with a station id every 15 mins

Real shame as they really had some great programing,
low power was a pain tho, as I didn't get it great at my house and you could only listen in the car if you were running around Arlington

I remember buying this at the Tysons Corner Tower the week it came out …on cd of course….and being knocked out by it…Many years later I bought an original press with the sheet of stickers…. Many years later I sold it for $200 which seemed like good money but obviously a stupid thing to do… today I bought the reissue…I had a $10 off discount so $24.99. Sounds fantastic.

I could use a sober review before I drop a $400 Amazon GC on the vinyl version of this.

Took a bin of records and dvds to goodwill….this coming year am resolved to get house under control…I figure 200 more bins and should be good

Of course couldn’t come away empty handed and for once happened to find something cool…a tango record from 1967 features my favorite tango singer on five tracks..Goyeneche….it couldn’t all be good news and record is a bit moldy…plays decent though and I have cleaned it and double sleeved it…

I got to say I am now a believer in this Blue Note Tone Poet reissue series

They are gorgeously done all around: sound and presentation.

Going to pick up the ones up my alley (mainly earlier hard bop)

Just read the Thurston Moore biography, and been on a major Sonic Youth kick the last few days. I think my top 5 favorites are EVOL, Daydream Nation, Sister, Murray Street, and possibly either Goo or Rather Ripped. Tough call though. But EVOL and Daydream Nation constantly battle it out for my favorite. "Shadow of a Doubt", "Starpower" and "Green Light" are the songs that I'm obsessed with on EVOL, and "Candle", "The Wonder" and "Eric's Trip" still take my breath away.

Just Another Rainbow

https://youtu.be/kfPEm9Ysb0I?feature=shared

I’m digging it, layers of guitars, melodic
bass lines and Liam sounding great. Wicked guitar solo. I hear shades of both Stone Roses records in Squires playing.

If the rest of the album sounds like this it’s gonna be great

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Mobius on January 05, 2024, 11:46:34 am

It’s great to hear new Squire. It’s nice to hear Liam singing with purpose. Glad it exists.

Shades of Squire’s work in Stone Roses. Unabashed references to Revolver songs like Tomorrow Never Knows and She Said She Said. And more surprisingly an interlude that sounds like The Who Tommy, like Amazing Journey. Made me think how much better off Second Coming might have been if they went in a Who direction instead of Zeppelin (esp with Reni as Moon)

Liam reeling off the colors ‘ . . INDIGO, violet!’ is either hilariously awesome or hilariously not awesome . . .

I discovered through many hours of editing and different shots and angles just how together they were as a band on that night. The shared looks, the way they supported each other and adjusted if anything went wrong. I felt privileged to have seen that close-up and tried to highlight as many of those looks and moments in the edit. This truly was one of their best performances not only at the reunion.

I bought it in the 90s and listened to it once…not sure I got all the way through…it’s pretty dire…

There just isn’t anything out there as good as the self titled album, their b-sides and those two singles before their break.

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: More_Coffee on January 05, 2024, 05:10:30 pm

Turns Into Stone, a fairly comprehensive collection of their non-album singles/b-sides, is one hell of an "album" every bit as compelling as their eponymous debut, and the Sally Cinnamon EP is essential as well. Beautiful Thing is awesome.

Second Coming and All for One are a step below all these, though still pretty good (for another band).

These tone poet blue notes are gorgeous. Look at the reflection of the label on the shiny cover!

This session from the end of 1963 I had not heard before cause it was a session that remained unreleased until 1999 on a limited cd run. Anyways what’s the big deal about this one? Well it was recorded about a month after the legendary Idle Moments album by the same musicians in the same studio with the same engineer! The difference is Hutcherson was the @leader on this as opposed to Green….it’s always been my contention that Hutcherson sounds like the leader on Idle Moments. Anyways, Green isn’t on two of the five tracks on this….and doesn’t solo as much on the ones he is on….. Another consideration is a standard performed at the session and on the cd is not included on the LP probably cause they didn’t want to cram 53 minutes on one LP.

Verdict? Well worth getting before it’s out of print again. It has the same melancholic nocturnal vibe as Idle Moments. Hutcherson and Cal Tjader are the only two vibes players I dig and I dig them a lot. Is this as great as Idle Moments? Doubtful but it’s not superfluous either… just depends how you like your jazz

Liam Gallagher & John Squire

Based on the early reports my expectations about this album came true. It's what I call an "It's End Of Week O'Clock" album, just one of the albums that's a rockin' fun listen with no deep thought required. Put me a in good mood for the weekend, bet it rocks in a car as well.

My favorite track is "You're Not The Only One" as it sounds like they are just a have fun time recording it.. Will probably plunk down the readies when the inevitable deluxe digital version comes out to help the album chart

I may be wrong, but I believe first set was a mixture of Division Bell and other random songs, and second set was just The Wall and Dark Side.

Some of the best new psychedelic pop I've heard in a while, just a gorgeous album. "Going Underground" to me sounds like a long lost Belle & Sebastian song. https://youtu.be/siRFUwfwUE4

Title: Re: What Are You Listening To?
Post by: Hutch on April 07, 2024, 08:20:48 pm

It is interesting

It’s also pretty crazy….seems like he is ranking them based on a combination of what albums he thinks are good AND how happy he was during the recording and his memories but sometimes the best art comes from the worst circumstances.
But that’s fair as I don’t want him to just reflect the general consensus…

My two favorites are probably Fight Songs and Most Messed Up. It still bums me out that he was such a mess during Most Messed Up and that he went clean after it because I like the album so much and it almost seems like he is disowning it! Like he says in the article about their fans in general, most messed up was the first time I really paid attention to Old 97s after a long while….

Love their first six albums, and Most Messed Up.

The other five were pretty weak and I never listen to them. Though there's a good song here and there on all of them.

New album has about two good songs.

Good thing they lean heavily on the earlier stuff in concert.

This is the first album from Nicke’s post Hellacopters band.

I've been relistening to a lot of his 90s material, and that stuff was really quite underrated, looking back.

If Blackstar is as great as people say then his 90s stuff is vastly underrated….

Buddha of Suburbia soundtrack and Outside are strong albums imho

I think his 90s stuff and next Day are better than people think and Blackstar is good. The ultimate performance art of Blackstar’s release makes it hard for people to be objective about it….

I’m also pro-Blackstar.

Outside needs revisited critically. It’s great.

This listen is a long distance dedication to Sweetcell way off in the hinterlands of Cascadia! This, bud, is for you!

When I listen to the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim I am reminded a bit of Sweetcell: urbane, sophisticated, talented….what talent!

This album is cool because it’s a small combo with Jobim playing almost all the piano. Singing in his boring monotone- great composer not much of a singer- with Edu Lobo also singing to iron out the harsh Rosita. Relaxed. Nothing much exciting happens…like in the Pacific Northwest an hour from Seattle where Sweetcell lives. It’s quite calming…and sometimes that’s all you need…you don’t need a carnivalbroohaha with mostly naked people with feathers playing the bongos. That’s a different sort of Brazilian music…. And it’s not the pacific north woods
