i love that buzz clifford record on...dot? i think. so good. danny brooks on...warner brothers? has moments. i like scott fagan but he's not for everyone. gary farr is my hero. tim hollier is my hero. paul siebel is cool. charles john quarto is cool. patrick sly is cool. others i've heard but can't recall right now...

patrick sky that is.

gary farr and tim hollier not the easiest to find either. still need a copy of the first tim hollier. i'll probably never find one.

which ist he first hollier? harlequin or w/e?

i love paul siebel the most on that list. both rekkerds on elektra are amazing. pretty much agree with everything skot said.rekkerds.

here's my little review I wrote for the Gary Farr record I liked the most.
Gary Farr was a committed man. He sang with a committed voice and created a densely lyrical world. 'Addressed to The Censors of Love' was released in 1973 and recorded at Muscle Shoals with Jerry Wexler. After two previous albums of folk rock, this is where he sang like everything depended on it. Gary Farr's father was a boxer and I think he had a little of his father's fight in him. The music is blue eyed soul folk rock, sort of. I really can't describe it well enough. There's a bit of Dylan in Gary's delivery, but it's more a confrontation with Dylan than just mimicking. On 'White Bird' 'Rhythm King' and 'Cetain Lady' he croons and is in love as much as anybody, he can be beautifully sad. When he rocks, like on 'Breakfast Boo-Ga-Loo' or 'Faith What a Face' it's like poetry meeting pub rock. This record might confuse you on first listen as it did me, but keep listening, it will surprise you.

I need Strange Fruit by Gary Farr, I used to have mp3s on a computer that died.

Did Doug Dillard pass away??

yes :(

:-( indeed, only just got around to finally checking out the dillard & clark stuff in the last week. love his contributions to that first mike nesmith record too.

so, inspired by the American Power Pop poll on ILM, i went to my singles boxes. pulled out the two Chris Stamey 45s, and discovered that 'The Summer Sun' picture sleeve was signed on the back by Alex Chilton! how did i not know this, and ...cool!

great song too!

Hey guys I started a brawl, sort of Poll

haha. what about "are you hiring?". i used to ask that one a lot in high school much to the clerk's annoyance.

wax thread looks parodical

all of them do!

sheesh.

they really don't

i am all for rich people spending too much money on records. at least if i'm selling them on ebay.

sayin

damn rich guys, always buying rares.

god i hate that term rares. like all rare records are one-in-the-same and of equal status as art because they are rare.

damn rich guys, always buying a nice car than me, nicer tv than me, nicer shoes than me.

got any rares

raers

not to change the subject, but RIP Leo Dillon, whose album covers are pretty top notch, for the most part.

they are so of their time. in a good way. half of the children's books i read in the 70's looked like that stuff.

me too. i was born in 75, so this is the look of early childhood. it must have really stuck with me now that i think about it. i spent a lot of time browsing everything i could reach at the library.

xoxo to his wife diane too.

i like looking at the search keywords on my blog from time to time.

Happy Birthday, Jacob!

Thanks Scott, enjoying a glass of Old Overholt to celebrate my 36 years!

i am playing records at a gig tonight.
it always makes me nervous playing records in a bar cuz i have no idea what the quality of the set-up is gonna be like. even at the radio station i sometimes worry abt fucking up my records with worn out needles.

fuck RIP bob welch. "future games" all night.

i don't really play records out anymore but whenever i do my new, diva-ish request is just to have a solid, stable table, away from anywhere where people are standing. it is not even the idea that the equipment might be less than ideal, just that someone is going to spill drinks over all my recs. how did it go, anyhow?
