Gastr Del Sol: CamoufleurRobert Wyatt: everything, but if you want a more atonal proggy side, listen to Ruth is Stranger than Richard. My fave is probably Old RottenhatTim Buckley: Lorca & StarsailorDavid Bowie: Low

I dunno about anything else on this thread though.
maybe the hollis solo album bootlegged w. 'endless summer', toby. haha yeah.
um. I'll think about this. like I've been getting lots into the comsat's first album and it has that dark brooding feel of blemish, with the kinda harmonic sheen to the guitar as well. but more big drums and less tremolo. same amount of reverb though. the comsats is more straightahead rock. I'd recommend it tho.
I think 'blemish' is my favourite album.

what's yr favourite track, toby? I eventually got the vinyl and I don't like the official sequencing. so I stick w. my own fuckt up running order which has 'a fire in the forest' come after 'how little we need to be happy'. that segue from brittle bailey guitar to lush fennesztronics is sublime. half human, half nothing at all.

Cozen, what about that line "and though I tried to please her / she came right back / and stole my visa..."?

kinda reminds me of when I read academics taking a stab at referencing something modern, trying to annex the cred / bolster thr theory. by which I mean, just garish y'know. (latest example: slavoj zizek talking about 'choice' wrt. the amazon 'if you like this, get that' system, yeah nice one slavoj.)

There are some great Sylvian live boots on SLSK. I managed to get a "Blemish" tour one from Japan and a great one from '88 in London (Hammersmith Odeon) on the same day.!

funny you say this, Sylvian came to two of the nights of the festival I just put on in Cologne, and was really into it. he's recording some of his next record at Amann Studios in Vienna, where Too Beautiful to Burn and 4 or 5 other Erstwhile titles have been recorded, Fennesz will be involved as well as probably some other Viennese-based musicians (guesses: Stangl, Brandlmayr, Dafeldecker, Hautzinger, but not really sure of any of these).

I also found myself with a clear mental image of him in a vacant house the whole time I was listening to it. Favorite thing about this album was the idea of "midnight shopping", or however he put it.
