What Are You Listening To (NO CHRISTMAS MUSIC EDITION 07!!!)

both those enrico rava records are classic underrated late seventies ECM... the former has John Abercrombie and the latter has Roswell Rudd. The 2nd one is moodier, but the first one is for the grateful dead fans & dope smokers.

i bought a bunch of things yesterday but these are the only ones i remember

I'm hungover and I want to listen to Braid. WTF

I took a road trip to the otherworldly town of St. Augustine with my girl over the summer and we discovered this magical radio station run by Jones College there.... I'm so thankful for the streaming version during these winter months

they're playing A Frank Sinatra Christmas, and his Japanese counterpart Franku, on loop at work here. that's what you get when you work with a bunch of italians at a japanese corporation

Listening to the Verlaines - Way Out Where!!! TANK U, AMAZONE.

I first though Growing was just decent mindless drone but then I heard some stuff with vocals and melodies that was absolutely epic. I haven't Gotten any of the stuff yet though. I need that and more Flying Saucer Attack, I think I sold my one FSA CD years ago.

bob bannister - eight day clock (twisted village '92 four track stuff for fans of the xpresseway label, etc. really quite good.)

xp. Growing... live have never impressed me, but some of their records are pleasant if a little derivative. Nice guys given my limited interactions with em. Polite, anyway.

I've got a few Growing records that I don't ever listen to. Promos from my days writing at Foxy Digitalis. I've heard good things about their shows.

I still listen to Flying Saucer Attack on a monthly basis. Recent favorite being the Sally Free and Easy EP.

Right now I'm listening to a mix of Zoviet*France tracks that one my my music share buddies here at work gave me. Good atmosphere.
HaHaXPosttoIan

I didn't mean Xpost to Ian, but xpost WITH Ian.

the maze
es,the free players, and some other finnish nonsense
and the new richard youngs

Zs arms

I spent an hour standing in line with the guy from Growing and he was very nice, and while name-dropping, the aforementioned Bob Bannister is also very cool.

I've got all these house and techno tracks on my iPod that I've been listening to for the last two weeks and I'm not sure what any of them are. They're all really hot though.

is penguin cafe orchestra - s/t worth getting?

yes

for $15?

cluster - s/t
nick drake - five leaves left
to kill a petty bourgeoise - the patron
slick rick - the art of storytelling
the blind shake - caramel
louis armstrong - town hall concert plus

"for $15?"

for minty vinyl? seems a bit high. maybe for minty jap obi action.

can probably get the cd for a dollar.

picked up an odetta lp, exploding hearts "guitar romantic" lp, and the numero group eccentric soul: the prix label comp.

i love that exploding hearts record so much

Brotzmann Tentet (plus one) live
MacGregor's Brotherhood of Breath
J. Geils Band - Freeze Frame
Arzachel - s/t
Howling Hex XI
Bill Nelson - Northern Dream
Electric Junkyard - s/t

man my folks used to have a bazillion of those Ferrante and Teicher records .. damn JaX, I dunno man, pretty dicey, but maybe I might need to reinvestigate. those might be the only records I didn't pilfer! still have those Ray Conniff records tho.

also:

Booker T. & the MG's - In the Christmas Spirit

blow me ian!!

Met my old lover in the grocery store
The snow was falling christmas eve
I stole behind her in the frozen foods
And I touched her on the sleeve

She didnt recognize the face at first
But then her eyes flew open wide
She went to hug me and she spilled her purse
And we laughed until we cried.

We took her groceries to the checkout stand
The food was totalled up and bagged
We stood there lost in our embarrassment
As the conversation dragged.

We went to have ourselves a drink or two
But couldnt find an open bar
We bought a six-pack at the liquor store
And we drank it in her car.

We drank a toast to innocence
We drank a toast to now
And tried to reach beyond the emptiness
But neither one knew how.

She said shed married her an architect
Who kept her warm and safe and dry
She would have liked to say she loved the man
But she didnt like to lie.

I said the years had been a friend to her
And that her eyes were still as blue
But in those eyes I wasnt sure if I saw
Doubt or gratitude.

She said she saw me in the record stores
And that I must be doing well
I said the audience was heavenly
But the traveling was hell.

We drank a toast to innocence
We drank a toast to now
And tried to reach beyond the emptiness
But neither one knew how.

We drank a toast to innocence
We drank a toast to time
Reliving in our eloquence
Another auld lang syne...

The beer was empty and our tongues were tired
And running out of things to say
She gave a kiss to me as I got out
And I watched her drive away.

Just for a moment I was back at school
And felt that old familiar pain
And as I turned to make my way back home
The snow turned into rain --

i think dan fogelberg is the worst lyricist i have ever heard

ringing endorsements of Growing from noise board!!

I kinda l ike the new one (Lateral) .... more electronic? I could never seem to play Soul of the Rainbow loud enough to have it sound not like new age music

stormy, i only heard a bit of one xmas song of F&T's at a store, but it sounded really quirky and weird. like good exotica should. (i could be totally wrong though). made the xmas music kinda interesting. usually it makes me want to kill someone.

this vid of theirs is kinda cool http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiKQEWzGI8E

and they even made it to mutant sounds
http://mutant-sounds.blogspot.com/2007/08/ferrante-teicher-blast-off-lp1958usa.html

uncensored xmas rap by the treacherous three
and "christmas in hawaii" from tino's breaks

other than that, roots manuva's cover of yellow submarine, the richard cheese cover of creep, food-a-ready by underworld, and alec empire vs merzbow. the last isn't actually so great for this weather I don't think.

oh and tenebre by goblin duh

i was gonna post this on that xian thread, but i'll post it here. IAN i think you would really dig this record by abe & malka. sadly, i sold my copy on ebay cuz i needed money :( but it doesn't go for TONS of money. you could probably find one for 30 bucks or maybe less. dreamy stuff. but also super-trad guitar picking and olde tyme folk. nice record.
