I'm not saying it's the greatest song in the world, but it could have been on a Superchunk/Butterglory/Sammy/Sebadoh/etc. album or something pretty easily, and the video is very cute. Inspiring a lot of 90's nostalgia...

thelonious monk's alone in san francisco, while reading a biography of his (interesting note: he apparently popularizd a seventh chord where you just play the root and the seventh, creating a dissonant sound).
also, this jazz piano trio album; not a genre i'm normally into, but there's an emotional heft to this (or at least that's what i'm hearing) that drawing me to it.

Been listening to the Dead. A lot.
Cooper was just in town, there is a Bitchin Bajas European tour in the works for next year as well as another music+visuals thing at the local indie theater that they are gonna do in Quadrophonic sound! The same guys that put out Water Wrackets are putting out the collaboration with Olivia Wyatt some time next year in an lp+dvd package.
― Mr. Farmer, Tuesday, 27 December 2011 15:42 (twelve years ago) link
do they do events like that in chicago? i'm not really involved with the "let's play at this makeshift space" types of shows here -- maybe they do this all the time, i have no idea. euro tour sounds a little more exciting though, i'd imagine.
― league of women voters, Tuesday, 27 December 2011 15:57 (twelve years ago) link
It seems like they do things like that every once in a while, but I'm really not sure. Cave is going on an Australian tour next year, as well. That is pretty exciting. Not quite as exciting as going to Japan with Thurston Moore (which is what another ex-band mate of mine, from a different band, is doing next year). I have to admit, I'm glad that my former bandmates, who actually possess some talent and skill, are moving on to bigger and better things in that realm.

Hey, this is why I respect Eric Bachmann and his Cuban sandwich truck. I'm not sure if he's still doing that or not, but regardless there's no shame in working for a living.

Oh certainly! I am glad that I can live vicariously through their rocker exploits, I've never been cut out for life on the road. I really don't envy the pro-musician lifestyle...much.
And the thought that I will have my degree at the end of 2012 fills me with joyful anticipation. There's nothing I'd rather do than sit in a room full of records all day.

it's the ultimate husband box set. it is fun, i've only listened to the first disc. kind of mystified/amazed by numero group -- such tlc for these ultra-obscure labels/artists. how do they do it? do they have a millionaire bankrolling the whole thing?
― tylerw_sandbox, Tuesday, 27 December 2011 16:55 (twelve years ago) link
did you get the LPs? i think i liked the 2nd or 3rd one best. it all kind of blurs together after a while. the song about getting high on jesus is pretty great. there was an awesome track called "don't make me kill you" too. i haven't sat down to read/listen very intently -- the books are super crammed with info.
as for the business model, i always just figured that they have high standards, are savvy w/r/t marketing to the people who will actually purchase their product, and aren't particularly cheap.

I've gotten on a James Brown kick and got a couple more of his CDs, specifically "In The Jungle Groove" and "Motherlode.
This track "Since You Been Good" is just mindboggingly good. Clyde Stubblefield and Bootsy just rip this thing apart. I really love the sound of this real stripped down JB to just the rhythm section and guitar. I suppose this might have been done with the intention of overdubbing the horns at a later date.

Lots of stuff. Right now filling in some gaps in my Oum Kalthoum listening. "Hakam Aleina Al Hawa." Obviously really late from the electric organ in the great instrumental introduction, and now that she's started singing, yes, really late. I've never heard this one before, that I remember.
