QUICK! What's on the turntable RIGHT NOW? (2010 Edition)

he was some indie band called the Mice from Cleveland(?) and then released a few rekkerds in the nineties and stopped doing stuff nowi guess he plays again and Scat reissued the record and it's amazing--shades of dylan, byrds, big star. great catchy pop.

a few of the tracks are rockers with more of a gbv/ego summit vibe but most are pretty mellow jangly affairs.

from wiki:

Head Hunters
Hancock re-recorded the tune for Head Hunters (1973), combining synthesizers with a Sly Stone and James Brown funk influence,[9] adding an eight-bar section. Hancock described his composition "Chameleon", also from Head Hunters, to Down Beat magazine in 1979: "In the popular forms of funk, which I've been trying to get into, the attention is on the rhythmic interplay between different instruments. The part the Clavinet plays has to fit with the part the drums play and the line the bass plays and the line that the guitar plays. It's almost like African drummers where seven drummers play different parts"; "Watermelon Man" shares a similar construction.[10] A live version was released on the double LP Flood (1975), recorded in Japan.
On the intro and outro of the tune, percussionist Bill Summers blows into a beer bottle imitating hindewhu, a style of singing/whistle-playing found in Pygmy music of Central Africa. Hancock and Summers were struck by the sound, which they heard on the ethnomusicology LP, The Music of the Ba-Benzélé Pygmies (1966), by Simha Arom and Genviève Taurelle.[11]
