Shelley Fabares - "Johnny Angel"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wt7UYKepRLU

p much lots of black metal at the moment.

specifically the latest Antaeus and Anaal Nathrakh

always loved Johnny Angel.

the song, not the person

Shirelles wiii you love me tomorrow
2cd on a budget label.
Sound's pretty good for most of it.

Playn Jayn 5 Good Evils
Studio lp by first band I followed.

Gun Club Oslo 10/84.
Drums are mixed too high and plod so I'm wondering if this is Desperate not Terry.

John Coltrane Ballads

Chocolate Soup For Diabetics box.
The 5lps of various mostly Brit Freakbeat (compiled before the term was coined I think) from the early 80s put together in a box. Nice.

Pentangle Cruel Sister.
The 1st lp by them to be all trad covers. Really amazing atmosphere.
I should have grabbed Basket Of Light at the same time.

Sunnyboys Our Best Of.
Aussie garage revivalists choose their fav tracks from the catalogue.

Oum Kalthoum - Shams El Aseel/أم كلثوم / شمس الاصيل - قصر النيل

I think I burned out on trying to like 2016 things.

basket of light is fantastic

If this doesn't show up, it's Sun Ra's Singles---The Definitive 45s Collection 1952-1991. I'm about an hour in, most of Disc I of this three-disc set. Aspiring singers they're backing are uneven, but instrumentals aren't, and the two opening songpoems by Mr. Ra are instant grabbers. More songs than the previous singles collection on the Evidence label.

Info, good excerpts here: [Removed Illegal Link]

here it is:

Rough Trade - Avoid Freud

I can't believe I'd never heard of this band until last week! and they wrote "Softcore" by Dusty Springfield which has been one of my favourite songs for years. I guess they were a bigger deal in Canada?

is that glam Billy Joel on the cover

http://i.imgur.com/fUTRQ6D.jpg

Cornelius - Fantasma

20 years old now - damn!!

This record is still quite futuristic =)

still get teary-eyed at "Thank You For the Music", which is kinda dumb

but yeah, what a great album. even better that he never really tried to follow it up and just went into another direction entirely, cuz I don't think that can be topped.

i am listening to WHITE ZOMBIE

i feel i should do something to sleaze this joint (viz. my home) up some

Oops, Sun Ra's xpost Singles---The Definitive Singles Collection is two discs, not three, but 63 tracks, a lot more than the one on the Evidence label (this is on Strut), and from the original masters, while at least some of the Evidence collection was from the low-budget 7" vinyls. Sounds great, and while the guest singers (who gradually disappear, as Ra and the Arkestra speak and sing up, occasionally but very assertively), as I mentioned, are uneven, they all shine sometimes. My favorite is Yochanan, AKA The Space Age Vocalist and The Man From The Sun, who belts 50s novelty free r&b numbers "M uck M uck (Matt Matt)" and Skillet Mama" and also delivers the word from further afield.
The rock 'n' roll/r&b appeal of some vocals and more instrumentals also comes across kinda Latinoid, in a range also for the soul jazz club-goers, Chicago electric bluesters---all of it fitting into what some older customers of my Deep South music store in the 90s meant by "blues", sometimes. Also some straight-up swing and some tentacles extended, but soon assimilated, though not forgotten---this is Disc I, on II things def get out, though "The Bridge", which is cosmic and must be walked after "fire is poured on dry leaves" and one way left to go, is immediately followed by "I'm Gonna Unmask Batman" and it keeps zig-zagging like that. And the catchier pop-blues-jazz approaches stuff can pull in darker rays, like on "Nuclear War": "Radiation breeds mutation" (group singers repeat), "And when they push that button, you can kiss yo' ass bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye." ("Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye.")

And most of these are conventional single lengths for the 50s and 60s (one track is from '91): some amazing fades, especially on several of the more outward bound sides---always leave 'em wanting more.

I got one mix with some hard rock from around 1996-97 with Monster Magnet 'Dopes to Infinity', Orange Goblin 'Frequencies from Planet Ten', Prong 'Rude Awakening' & 'Cleansing', Tool 'Aneima', Melvins 'Stag', Soundgarden 'Down on the Upside', Alice In Chains 's/t' & Corrosion of Conformity 'Wiseblood'. It is weird to think of all of those records being around 20 years old too.

A second mix I got going is working through all of Iggy Pop's albums mixed with some Bowie and 80s King Crimson.

Third thing I have been checking out is Dylan's albums from the start along with reading Clinton Heylin's biography. I've listened to the 's/t' and 'The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan' a couple times in the past week or so.

xposts: see this comp for more yochanan (alt takes, etc)

Very bouncy and crazy Egyptian shaabi songs in new sound remake from 1991, Ahmed Adaweia - Adaweia 91.

the part of the new Zappa Meat Light The Uncle Meat Project Object set that corresponds to the original lp release. So finally hearing this in a remastered version of the way it was originally supposed to be heard.
MIght need a physical copyof this now.

& wishing I hadn't seen the price of the Sun ra singles set as the 7" set which was lying on the counter at Rough Trade East and is like £90 before I'd really taken in what the variations were. MIght have got a copy of the cd version.
Well I do have the Evidence one which I got very cheap some years ago. Think I payed like €11 or something for it.

Cause I'm officially in a midlife crisis, I have been listening to quite a bit of old stuff. Nostalgia.

dEUS - Worst Case Scenario
George Michael - Best of (Damn miss him more and more)
But also Frank Ocean

lol Billy Bragg and that Birthday Party comp were big records for teenage me. im going thru a midlife crisis nostalgia fest too

The Colourist with Emiliana Torrini (LIVE)

Includes several cuts from 'Fisherman's Woman' radically re-imagined in orchestral versions that do not mirror the acoustic intimacy of the originals. The percussion throughout is exceptional and Torrini's vocals are as gorgeous as usual.

Also includes tracks from "Tookah" and "Me And Armini".

A cheap 2cd of jump blues, hillbilly boogie and other pre r'n'r called Jump'n'Jive. Pretty good selection with decent sound.

It has Tiny Bradshaw's original of Train Kept a Rolling on it. In which the woman on the train is a 'hipster' from New York City. I don't think I've been able to make out what that word was on any of the subsequent covers. Think it's sounded like it morphed into 'heifer' elsewhere. Was the word hipster unknown in white Memphis where Johnny Burnette came from?
Thankfully had different connotations than it does now.

The only way my 8-year old son will go to sleep is by listening to the Spotify Top 50 list, so what I've been listening to recently is:
Ed Sheeran, "Shape Of You"
Ed Sheeran, "Castle On the Hill"
The Weeknd, "Starboy"
ZAYN/Taylor Swift, "I Don't Wanna Live Forever"
Clean Bandit, "Rockabye" feat. Sean Paul & Anne-Marie

Of these, I like "Starboy" best. I really don't like Ed Sheeran. I think Sean Paul's guest verse on "Rockabye" is funny.

Apart from that:

Ben Webster, "Picasso"
Charlie Parker w strings
Jorge Ben, A Tabua De Esmeralda
Jeff Parker, Slight Freedom
Mrs Miller singing "Monday Monday"
Cocteau Twins, first album
Bill Evans, How My Heart Sings
Grant Green with Sonny Clark
Fleetwood Mac, "Everywhere"

(Ehm, I meant Coleman Hawkins, "Picasso", not Ben Webster.)

ran across the electric jive blog, which is still alive and kicking, and have just been inhaling various stuff from there. particularly good is a 78 by almon memela, "amapoyisa/lashona".

lots of The Three Sounds for me recently, the standouts have been vibrations, elegant soul and the blue hour w/ Stanley Turrentine. They are a band that can make the world seem a better place with a jaunty instrumental Lee Hazelwood cover, and Sittin' Duck off Elegant Soul was on repeat a lot yesterday. I just love them.

Sometimes jazzy, Taiwanese pop, Mavis Fan:

Free EP downloads. Maybe I like it better because it's not in English. I'm okay with that.

Need to want laidback to enjoy, I think.

Ben Webster is fucking awesome.

tons of minimal:
Jan Jelinek/Farben
Gas/M:1:5
Deepchord presents Echospace
Basic Channel

and also the new DJ Nigga Fox, which is coincidentally way more minimal than his previous stuff

I've got a few different things going. I mostly listen to Fu Manchu, Uriah Heep or Sabbath at work of late. I got one playlist ath home with some newer riffy stuff like Lecherous Gaze, The Shrine with High On Fire, Motorhead and some old stuff like Cactus and Mountain. I got another play list working getting into Leon Russell, JJ Cale mixed with some odd Dylan records, Badfinger and George Harrison. I'm also working a play list mixing some Iggy, Bowie, T-Rex, Eno, Roxy Music, King Crimson and Mott the Hoople. I'll break things up listening to anything else that comes to mind sometimes on Youtube.

Kinda weird to me that "Drum N Bass for Papa" by Plug is like 20 years old. That doesn't seem possible, but there it is... I listened to a bunch of those tracks and Photek on Youtube tonight.

Dimi Mint Abba & Co. I want to say jam session but I think it's probably a lot more structured than that.

This is something old from 2016 that I keep listening to, thanks ShariVari:

Tilbury recently turned 81. i read somewhere he described playing/improvising as something like pushing/shaping clay, as it took place on the spot.. can't recall the source. the recording (box set) is excellent, the material is definitely up there with Duos for Doris

Man, I always thought Johnny was saying "hippie." I know that's anachronistic but words have to start somewhere, right?

The earliest use I know of: in the 50s-early 60s jazz scene(s), a hippie was a silly dilettante, maybe a noob, like "teenybopper" later, yknow little sister and her hordes, screaming for the Monkees (rather than the Beatles, like your cool shapely classmates did). But guess it could have positive connotations too, even before the Summer of Love.
Seeing that Necronomicon cover reminds me of the Neuromiun album on which Nico invokes Poe's "Ulalume"----video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phoS1rtSTAA

i took music humanities with charles dodge! (waaay xpost.) sadly the semester ended before got to electronic/avant modern stuff. he was a good teacher / nice guy.

radian - on dark silent off
autechre - untilted/quaristice.. there's a live recording from 2008 (Los Angeles) circulating on the www... it's got like straight-ahead, banging beats and then turns into a wild hybrid of Untilted and Quartistice, though not sounding much like either album.

Oh yeah, that Dalek album is really good: industrial rustbelt hip-hop with some prog influence.

Turid, Telescopes, INTERNATIONAL FUCKING HARVESTER and Trad Gras... man what a score.

wasn't feeling that Hood CD. maybe i need the right drugs or something. sounded like ambient Slint.

I remember seeing them on TOTP in the late 70s doing Uptown Top Ranking.
Also was it a cover of a male singer's song? THink I came across taht somewhere but the lyrics must have changed if so.

From press sheet:

Karin Krog
Don't Just Sing | An Anthology: 1963-1999

2xLP & CD Available: June 30, 2015 (Digital: June 16th)
Light In The Attic

The work of Karin Krog may be unfamiliar to much of the world, but in her native Norway and Scandinavia at large, she’s practically a household name. This says much about the local enthusiasm for post-bop jazz but also about the tyranny of distribution: until 1994, Krog’s albums weren’t available in the USA or UK, meaning three decades of recordings were waiting to be discovered. In theory, until now, she hasn’t had any regularly distributed albums in the US or the UK–this is certainly the first one even marketed/promoted in here and in England. With this anthology of her best recordings from 1963 to 1999–curated with Krog’s own input–we hope to set the record straight.

To listen to opening track “As A Wife Has A Cow” is to jump into the deep end. It’s 54 seconds of words, voice, and technology, a looped, echoing reading of a Gertrude Stein poem. The effect is disquieting and alien but deeply rhythmic, too–and that’s Krog’s USP. Don’t Just Sing takes in these spoken experiments along with free jazz, improvisation, standards, contemporary covers, and electronic manipulation. It features some of the best regarded jazz players in Europe, not least her partner, John Surman, the English saxophonist/multi-instrumentalist and composer. Like Annette Peacock, Krog experiments with solo vocals run through electronics and performs with progressive electric jazz combos and traditional acoustic groups as well.

Krog began singing jazz in the 1950s and started her first band in 1962. She not only had two tracks on the first ever Norwegian jazz LP, Metropol Jazz, but also became the first Norwegian jazz artist to record and release a full album (1964’s By Myself on the Philips label). Her sound developed as technological advances made new recording techniques possible, and she quickly embraced the album as the perfect form to contain her sonic experiments. “There is such a thing as too much manipulation,” says Krog today.

Recorded with tenor saxophonist Jan Garbarek and bass player Arild Andersen, 1968’s Joy is regarded as her masterwork. Tracks from it can be found on this compilation, as can a couple of interesting covers: Joni Mitchell’s “All I Want” and Bobby Gentry’s “Ode To Billy Joe,” both of which show how Krog brought jazz aesthetics to pop songs of the day. “I remember that there was a lot of buzz around Blue, and Joni Mitchell is, as everybody knows, a very talented singer and songwriter,” says Krog in the new liner notes.

“Glass" and “Tystnaden" are the two previously unreleased finds from the archives, the former written for a British documentary in 1997, the latter a soundscape improvisation from a 1963 studio session with Lars Werner on piano, Kurt Lindgren on bass, and Janne Carlsson on drums. The compilation rounds off with the “Psalm” movement from John Coltrane’s monumental piece, A Love Supreme. Krog’s version came at suggestion of the man himself. “It was John who pointed to the text on the inner sleeve of the Impulse! LP and said, ‘Karin, look. Why don’t you sing this?’” she remembers.

Krog remains fiercely productive, recording, performing, and running Meantime Records from her and John’s villa near Oslo. Now 77, she’s showing no signs of slowing down. “Everybody has to retire at some point, but I believe that once a musician, you’re always a musician,” she says. “If I can’t stand up and sing on stage anymore, I can always do it sitting down!”

Curated with Krog’s own input, this anthology showcases her best recordings from 1963 to 1999, including songs from 1968’s groundbreaking Joy, her 1970 Dexter Gordon collaboration Some Other Spring, her pop-jazz masterwork 1974’s We Could Be Flying, tracks from the Japanese only Different Days, Different Ways which focus on 1970-72 experimental vocal works, and previously unreleased tracks.

Just listened to the promo of the xpost Karin Krog antholgy, good stuff. "Ode To Billy Joe" doesn't really suit her, but otherwise yeah: she sounds like she's been around, all the more reason to go for the finer things in life, o baby. The more cosmic (more atmospheric, less earthy), still sensuous tracks later on--fave so far: "Don't Just Sing," with her tonal shifts mirrored and/or aided & abetted by studio and synth effects---rec. to fans of Sheila Jordan, maybe more than Annette Peacock, who's got something of a different (or just more) attitude. Krog sounds smart, sometimes sly, confident, like the lady who runs the detective's favorite bar (might be a bar with weed).

Not so crazy about the sax solos on here, but usually she's just got keys, bass, drums, occasionally other percussion, that's all she needs.

An incredible live set by most of the players from Ask The Ages from a German jazz festival about 2 years later Pheroan Aklaff has been substituted for Elvin Jones but the other 3 are the same Pharaoh , Sonny and Charnett Moffatt on bass.
Turned up on Dime earlier this week. I would have posted the URL to the Ask The Ages thread if the search engine was working.
But it's here http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=586272

18 minute take on Upper and Lower Egypt, several very extended takes on tunes from the Ask The Ages lp. It'sa bit less droney than that lp and lacks what always struck me as an old timey feel, possibly more joyful. fantastic set.

Today I have been blasting out Mal Waldron's awesome Free At Last (ECM's first release) and his strange and wonderful twin piano sax trio with Shepp, Three For Freedom. He was such an underrated mofo. Also the Ben Webster/Art Tatum album which contain some of "the Brute's" most sensitive tenor sax. This is stuff I go through cycles of listening to and it always sound startlingly beautiful when i haven't heard it for ages.

Not forgetting the class Ben Webster/Gerry Mulligan album which I think Jonathon Meades is a fan of because he uses some of it on his Italian Fascist architecture program.

Hadn't heard of those Waldron albums, will def check, thanks! Starting with the Shepp collab, preferably. Reminds me of this, from Rolling Jazz 2016:
That xpost Mal Waldron episode of the Public Radio show Night Lights is posted now, along with a substantial text commentary (x YouTube highlights):http://indianapublicmedia.org/nightlights/soul-eyes-early-mal-waldron-songbook/

Forgot how much I loved 'Pentamerous Metamorphosis' by Global Communication back in the day. Haven't really busted it out in well over a decade, probably because '76:14' is always the go-to. This record is a lost classic of the genre and I'm surprised it doesn't come up in conversation more. I've never even listened to the original Chapterhouse material and inspiration from which it is born.

Today I have been blasting out Mal Waldron's awesome Free At Last (ECM's first release) and his strange and wonderful twin piano sax trio with Shepp, Three For Freedom. He was such an underrated mofo.

been digging 'the call' a lot lately; a shame, it seems, that he never recorded with another group like that

It is a really great band/album is that, though possibly he was uncomfortable with the fusion/krautrock type of direction because like you say they didn't work together again and I don't think he even played electric piano on any other albums.

he played on some embryo albums including this which i need to hear!

I think they just recycled the the first track off The Call there and split it into 2, rather than it being additional Mal Waldron material, though.

I've been blasting through a big 16 record playlist of 80s US punk/indie with The Big Boys, The Effigies, Black Flag, Dinosaur Jr., Flaming Lips, The Feelies, Pylon, Mission of Burma, Pere Ubu, Screaming Trees, Sonic Youth, Wipers, Meat Puppets, Dream Syndicate, The Dicks & Husker Du. Some of this music I had not heard in a while and it is sounding really good mixed together.

steig aus is definitely _the_ essential embryo album as far as i'm concerned!

All I've been listening to lately is R&B/jump blues music from the 1940s.

I realized I'd never listened to the Chapterhouse record that Global Communication remixed. It's okay but this track was nice bit of post baggy era shimmer. Don't let that dated, bog standard drum intro put you off.

I got excited, then learned that there is a band called Lorn that is unrelated to the producer called Lorn.

i normally hate this kind of mewling indie afropop beach boys with electronics, but this (and zac davis' more sing-songy & less fax-y ambient bits) have some ineffable wayward charm that the more salient practitioners lack

His Name Is Alive----Patterns of Light: the doors ov the Temple are left open---"calling all believers"----sisters of the Flower bathe in "the cool light of Creation", as acolytes of Crazy Horse, Deep Purple and Father Yod boogie all around; synthesizers ride the circuit---"I want your daemon inside me",or is it "diamond"? So refined and sure, even when anticipating the "donkey at dawn"---sole acoustic-based regrouping of "Dragon Down", recalling You as "a dream within the dream....getting dark outside....gonna heal my heartlights tonight", so not so far from that recharged "Silver Arc Curving...", from "the world has lost the Key-" to "The World is now the Key", o Baby---(where's my crucifix? Why worry though)

picked up a copy of The Tymes "Trustmaker" yesterday. really awesome sometimes-psychedelic 70s Philly soul. Bernard Purdie is on this so you know it's good.

feel like David Bowie's "Young Americans" mined this record specifically for a lot of arrangements and effects.

though not sure why they only picked one track from From Her To Eternity. I thought they were still doing St Huck live though couold be several years since they did. Were certainly doing it this decade. & i like that lp anyway. so would have used more. But maybe it works in a time constrained overview.

i love it but unfortunately the second side on mine is totally trashed! found a french pressing (at the late lamented records records) but have never seen another copy for sale here which is surprising since i'm pretty sure it got a local release as well.

which i'm pretty impressed by. A bit more psychedelic and Byrdsy than the next stage they developed into as BOC and stuff I'm surprised i wasn't as into last time i listened to it. Which is quite a while back I think.

Think I have one of the 3 early BOC lps that I think are pretty necessary so will need to get the other 2.

s/t through Secret Treaties are essential IMO

THere was a 2cd compi of Terry reid called Superlungs which had the 1st 2 lps plus a load o f bonus stuff on it.
It's also on the Original album series along with River, the 1st and a couple of later things.

I have that comp, it's awesome! Gotta get that Orig Album thing just to have the later albums on CD.

really need to get hold of the cd I think. Not sure how I missed it so far. Seems to have got a decent remaster back in '99

^excellent... the follow-up album they did in the eighties is also worth checking out.

I probably need to get a couple of the new Yoko reissues. Anybody know how good the sound is?

I was curious about that too but I can't imagine the Steve Hoffman forums will be checking in on those except to be racist and misogynist and complain that she broke up the Beatles

Patriotic music released in July 2005. Henry Kaiser / Elliott Sharp / Lance Carter / Eric Mingus / Queen Esther / Melvin Gibbs

Mingus is occasionally over the top with his vocals, but the missing Gibbs Brother (Melvin) is stellar throughout.

i listen to this constantly. it speaks to the music of my soul. Takako Minekawa "Maxi On" (2000). very pretty and childlike psychedelic keyboard pop with vintage synths. sort of in the vein of Devo but with more Eno and Ono. that early 2000s love for retro synths is all-time.

have not heard Approximate Infinite Universe. i love that album cover. what is it like?

i am listening to Feeling the Space right now it has a very solid 70s rnb soul pop studio sound and arrangements. it has Yoko writing beautiful and deep songs. Growing Pain, Woman of Salem, Run, Run, Run, Woman Power. by this point in time she was a more productive songwriter than her husband. she had a really keen ear for pop songcraft and she used her large platform to make this revolutionary feminist noise punk pop music. Yoko Ono is so cool.

I went down a Charlie Haden wormhole this weekend, and amongst some other rather lovely things it lead me to discover Egberto Gismonti and his wonderful Solo album from '79, which I have been playing non-stop since.

And Haden's Silence is such a beautiful song, and the Dino Salluzzi bandoneon version is very haunting as well.

and Gismonti's Sol Do Meio Dia is another delight.

Charlie Haden is a fine place to go exploring. Ornette's Crisis brings chills, and his acoustic and electric work with Keith Jarrett...looks like I need to cue up some Charlie. I also love the rowdier stuff like Liberation Music Ochestra. Golden Number, Quartet West. The trio with Geri Allen & Paul Motian. Arbour Zena with Jarrett. From free jazz, to bebop, to gospel, American folk songs, there wasn't anything he could not be rock solid on. DAMN. Hours upon hours upon hours of Charlie Haden.

^^^

Absolutely spot on j arthur, I couldn't agree with a post more!

My go to Haden is his "Closeness" Duets album - particularly 'Turiya' his tribute to Alice, which breaks me up.

"Last Dance" together with Keith Jarrett has a great relaxed vibe.

Wisha lot more John Cale era material would miraculously appear. But this is great enough.

how is that williams & corbett record?

funny. corny. sparse. insect improv. 50's sci-fi & scratched mambo lps, but somehow good (cos if ever there were some worn out touchstones). think incus chadbourne bailey

in a similar mode to feeling the space, though the emphasis is more on the rock side of things (elephants memory backing vs. the session dudes on fts). also: ballads, strings & funk!

Ornette Coleman quartet, 1971-10-25 Paris, Theatre du Palais de Chaillot

i like that pati yang track.
i have the solo album that followed that, and her flykkllr album of course.
she made an album with matty skylab, and jagz kooner, and chris rotter that was supposed to have been released a couple of years back, but suspect its not going to happen now.

//e.snmc.io/lk/f/l/9c934ef9319928919cac0b0d9e277628/6105813.jpg

Sound is pretty great. & he don't half get slinky in places.
Also has quite a bit of straighter country stuff on which he does quite well but might put some people off.

JUst trying to think what else from the era is as good as him that I need to look into.
Was wondering last night if Billy Lee riley's version of Babuy Please Don't go was a direct influence on the Them version. So Billy Lee riley is definitely among them but I already have a set by him.
Need to pick up the Jody Reynolds set that came out last year i think. Now need to work out who else?

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cFsCnr3syss/TvJ6cObOhvI/AAAAAAAABFQ/kxgp2xTf_sk/s1600/DickersonUnity2.jpg
I'm really into Walt Dickerson's Plays Unity album at the moment, some great twin drum breaks and it sounds oddly out of joint for a '64 album.

XXP Pati Yang has been at this for two decades. Only the language barrier denied her Portishead's career.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRJa_8aDZkk

I've got three different play lists working. One is a mix of different live Dead, another is a bunch of old grunge and stoner rock and a third is a bunch of roots reggae.

This tune is sooooo funky. Never heard it until a few days back.
