i had a nice conversation with Jeff ( i don't really know much about his other stuff). He said they had only practiced together for a day before the gig on the island. I told him it sounded like at least three days to me! he liked that one.

Ah, okay. Only Chris Brokaw solo thing I've heard so far was Red Cities which was nice, but I sort of missed him interacting with other musicians on it (he played everything himself, err, right? at least it sounded like it was all recorded by one guy). So the new one sounds good to me.

new album is almost indistinguishable from peak patti smith. "by the hand" is fantastic

I finally replaced my copy of Uzi Sleep Asylum earlier this year fro like 99p plus p+p.
Hadn't realised it was that easily come by. Had it after finding it in Dublin when I first moved there and then I think it got lost in a box of cds taht disappeared in moving.

But do enjoy it.

Also love Positraction by Live Skull. Have a poster for it somewhere but not enough clear wall space.

She's doing some touring (mostly with a band but some solo gigs) for the Eve album I see.

I liked her group Dangerous Birds way back when

Alive Again is favorite Live Skull song. Positrction is favorite album. I love the Come sound, but I guess I love the scary of Live Skull more. Got to hang out with her after a show, and she was relaxed and engaged. I know she did drugs, but she seemed like an old soul as well.

“Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” was just reissued as a two CD set.

Re this entire thread -

It’s always been about Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell for me. None of the other Come stuff or what I’ve heard of other Zedek or Brokaw projects or releases has quite compared.

Always preferred the debut but DADT is right up there, Mercury Falls and German Song are two of the best things they ever did. Have heard some of the bonus stuff - love their version of the Swell Maps' Loin of the Surf.

As for other Thalia stuff, I will rep for the Live Skull records she's on until the day I die.
