i bought my copy of new day rising on thayer st. in providence when it came out. same with my german label copy of zen arcade.

― scott seward (121212), Thursday, 14 December 2006 16:46 (seventeen years ago) link

it was all downhill after flip yr wig. i remember being so excited that new day rising came out, like, 2 months after i bought zen arcade. or at least that's how i remember it. my dad bought me zen arcade for my 16th birthday. after dinner at montanas! is montanas still there??? tex-mex! some guy died eating the chili there. cuz he was allergic to nuts.

hey milton - any idea of a track listing for that SCG show?

no idea! track 7 is 'the shining path' from torch of the mystics but the rest I'm either unfamiliar with or it's improvised

I like this TJK album. i've had it lying around and never listened to it. basically, it's steely dan + TJK.

― scott seward (121212), Thursday, 14 December 2006 19:09 (seventeen years ago) link

i think i'm still bitter about buying a sealed copy of TJK's White Cloud band album with textured rattlesnake cover and playing it and finding out it was FUCKED. slightly warped and skip skip skippy. sooooo sad. that's the risk you run with SS.

upsilon acrux
soulwax lp (anyone notice that there's some song that sounds like qotsa and another that sounds like cave in)

― jw (ex machina), Friday, 15 December 2006 04:09 (seventeen years ago) link

did you ever see the guy from upsilon acrux's drumset?

back in the day, upsilon acrux had two drummers! and they each had those crazy homemade drumkits.

hey dleone, flashback to sunday night (martin had the sense to keep his head down)

haha, it looks like she's singing right at me

― Dominique (dleone), Friday, 15 December 2006 05:01 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, the singer kinda blows. i liked some of the music and guitars. i bought it on a whim cuz i heard it was pretty good and i don't see it for sale much. i didn't pay a ton for it, but i RARELY buy stuff like that on ebay, so i was bummed.

you would probably like that kaye album, ian, if you haven't heard it. country byrds + steely dan. and not, you know, SOUNDING like steely dan. i mean that becker/fagen/etc are the backing band. amongst others.

x-post

― scott seward (121212), Friday, 15 December 2006 05:03 (seventeen years ago) link

i bet i would like it! but i doubt i will ever see it :(
i got a nice soft/country rock LP by a band called Trilogy today; it's still at work.

right now I'm listening to Compulsive Gamblers - Live & Deadly! Side 2 is just all so killer. They're a band I'm bummed I never saw. Do you like the Oblivians/Greg Cartwright-related stuff Skot?

― ian (orion), Friday, 15 December 2006 05:35 (seventeen years ago) link

i don't think i've ever heard that stuff. they were garagey crypt band, right? the 90's are kind of a blur though, i might have heard them.

― scott seward (121212), Friday, 15 December 2006 05:41 (seventeen years ago) link

yeaaaaah. compulsive gamblers r more soulful country rock type stuff, but a couple of da same guys.

― ian (orion), Friday, 15 December 2006 05:44 (seventeen years ago) link

btw scott, apparently i lost the tape i made for you before i could send it.
this was weeks ago and i still haven't found it. i think i am just gonna make another.

bruce haack - electric lucifer

― 69 (pete), Friday, 15 December 2006 06:01 (seventeen years ago) link

i wasn't like a rilly big purchaser of 90's garage crypt-type stuff back then. i LIKED it, you know, but i was busy with other stuff. i did buy jon spencer albums though. up until extra width or thereabouts. then i had had enough. i haven't listened to a blues explosion album SINCE extra width came out! i only bought them out of pussy galore love. same with boss hog albums. haven't listened to those since then either.

― scott seward (121212), Friday, 15 December 2006 06:04 (seventeen years ago) link

a decent reference-point for some of the compulsive gamblers stuff is brinsley schwarz or the band filtered through the eyes of obsessive garage 45 collectors.

LOVE this album

― ian (orion), Friday, 15 December 2006 06:58 (seventeen years ago) link

i still have never heard it. it's rated very highly. it's pricey!

― scott seward (121212), Friday, 15 December 2006 07:15 (seventeen years ago) link

there's a reissue available (scorpio) that shouldn't cost more than $12.

― ian (orion), Friday, 15 December 2006 07:21 (seventeen years ago) link

gatefold and all! my copy is VERY SLIGHTLY warped. so that the needle looks goofy, but it plays without incident.

― ian (orion), Friday, 15 December 2006 07:21 (seventeen years ago) link

we had an original of it at work at one point, and one of the dudes from the black crowes bought it.

I've listened to Stevie Wonder's "As" like 4 times this morning

― Dominique (dleone), Friday, 15 December 2006 18:52 (seventeen years ago) link

i was in a record store the other day and dude was playing a Palace album. i think it was Joya, that's one of the heavier ones, right? man, it sounded sooooo good. i need to pull out all those albums

― jaxon (jaxon), Friday, 15 December 2006 19:19 (seventeen years ago) link

but since i'm hungover from a work party last night, "working" from bed, Armchair Boogie will do. it's pretty great, thanks Ian.

― jaxon (jaxon), Friday, 15 December 2006 19:20 (seventeen years ago) link

last night i pulled out a stack of 7"s and just started listening to them. baseball furies, bassholes, bantam rooster, black lips, baby shakes, then i went to a bar.
