New Jack Rose album? (Dec 2009: RIP Jack Rose)

No sign elsewhere yet, so I have hope.

I just saw jjt post something on facebook about it.

yikes, RIP. glad I saw them/him.

holy shit

It's true. Cory from Threelobed just posted it to twitter.

Totally unexpected and terrible news.

Awful. RIP.

That sucks - I've met him a few times and he was a really great awesome guy, in addition to being a great musician. The last time I saw him, there was this drunk dude heckling him, but I'm not remembering the details of it right now.

This is fucking terrible news.

sorry for the random update, but Three Lobed Recordings is extremely
sad to pass along news that our dear friend Jack Rose passed away this
morning in Philadelphia at the age of 38. This news is still fresh to
us and we're still trying to process it. Jack was a warm, caring
person and was always a pleasure to be around. His larger than life
spirit will truly, truly be missed even moreso than his inspired
musical ability. Our deepest sorrow goes out to his wife.

Rest in peace, Jack.

Cory

38! fuck me.

That's fucking miserable. Going to jam some of those records tonight for sure.

couldnt believe it when that email arrived

this sucks, just saying that again.

Lord, I just saw a retweet from 3 Lobed about this. Hard to get my head around. Dude was barely a month older than I was.

geez, 38! i guess we're lucky to have gotten all the great music from him while he was here, but you can't help but think he had a lot left to give ...

now playing: Pelt "Ayahuasca"

I'm 5 years older than he was...

just played "Dr. Ragtime" -- such great, open-hearted stuff ...

I saw him pestered by a heckler to play "Kensington Blues" over and over at an instore at the old location of The True Vine in Baltimore and eventually he played it, with great humor and force and compassion. A great musician and a life-force. As I understand it through the grapevine, the heckler was a troubled guy who died not too long ago of a drug overdose, and now Jack's dead too.

I can't believe he's dead at 38. Jeez, I'm 38.

:(

this is fucking awful. great musician, great guy.

Friend just texted me this...i need to get drunk. fuuuuck

All Jack Rose/Pelt playlist, all night long. :-(

jamming cathedral et chartres at top volume - fuck the neighbors...

Really really fucking depressed about this. An obsessive alchemical giant. Chatted with him (and Pelt) for hours in the parking lot of Spaceland after a post Terrastock 2 gig. Gave me a hug for releasing the Last Days Of May album.

Going to hoist a pint or three.

A phenomenal talent. Really sad about this. My wine bottle is nearing its bottom and I've played Pearls from the River and Skullfuck and Raag Manifestos and the Archive live album and onward we go...

Jesus this is ridiculous, RIP

Jack Rose really isn't in the category of musicians you are a bit scared to open a bumped thread about because you think it might tell you they're dead

shocking. rip.

Horrible news. Obv bummed that I didn't go and see him in Glasgow a cpl of week ago, now.

Oh shit, terrible news, I'm 3 years older than he was! Saw him in London 2 or 3 years ago - he got a wonderful growling tone out of his guitar but still played with subtlety and emotion, without lapsing into sentimentality. Seemed like a cool guy too, I'm quite upset about this actually. RIP

fukkers and suckkers..this was my firsat booking when i came to hudson..."Inveterate fumbler of keys,pitches and tumblers full of "brown" drinks,Michael Hurley will be at the Hudson River Theater in Hudson NY this Mon May 5th at 8pm..opening are Charlambides frontthing Tom Carter and ace outster Jack Rose of Pelt..all who train up are invited to sleep over and I will make breakfast in the morning.PS-Sorry this is not a question

the most awful news. loved pelt for ages, the solo stuff even more. didn't know him personally, but still terribly saddened by this. my heart goes out to his family & friends, to all here who apparently knew him well.

scott slimm of Archive Records posted some of his personal pics of his friend jack over at forever doomed
http://www.foreverdoomed.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=14656&start=40

shiiiit. a massive talent and from what I know (just seeing him live and through other people) seemed like a super nice guy too. jeez.

Oh fuck, this is really sad.

very sad news. i saw jack a couple years ago but i was hoping to see pelt in my lifetime

RIP

I was lucky enough to see Pelt with Jack at the Terrastock 2 show you can hear on Empty Bell Ringing in the Sky -- it was and is one of the highlights of my showgoing life, one huge long track that was utterly mesmerizing, and the recording by default just can't capture the full impact of it.

Both Pelt and, separately, Jack played at the last Terrastock, in Jack's case with the Black Twig Pickers. Weird that I'll only ever see one of them again now.

Some really nice recollections (especially from Elisa of Magik Markers/Six Organs) over at the Arthur site.

All hands.

where was this anyway? turf club?

been heavy into this lately & absolutely loving it, esp his ragtime/old timey stuff has gone from being my least to most favourite. some combination of playing/thumbpick/micing on kensington blues makes the bass on tracks like flirtin with the undertaker bludgeon the song to death a bit, but dr ragtime & his pals sounds awesome and is pure joy

really enjoyed the remembrances, the points about his craftsmanship & attention to sonic details are very otm, and the bachman stuff in particular is v sweet and chimes with my starry-eyed memories of meeting jack

also just want to bask in this magnificent sentence again:

His ragtime songs were so powerful and executed with such precision and might that even “hipsters” got it.

the stuff about him 'owning' everything he did rang true, and makes me think more about how confidently and fruitfully he followed fahey, thriving in his shadow, following him upriver deep into the mountains in such of the source. watching some of his performances on youtube it's incredible how much he looks & dresses like fahey, as if his quest had started transformed him physically, presumably starting at that mighty right hand. and yeah, it's great to hear sundogs again, was a truly awesome piece to hear

I could live inside of "Sundogs".

Seeing this thread has made me dig out Two Originals Of... God but Mountaintop Lamento is beautiful. Think I might put Effigy on next and go run around in the woods in a bear suit.

Nine years.

Great story:

“Yeah I got Terry Reilly records, man - at home, where ya listen to that kind of stuff. I’m trying get people to buy beers here!” - Jack Rose to Jeff Zeigler when the latter made a request while the former was DJ’ing at JBs. Relayed to me yesterday while mixing with JZ. RIP.

12 years gone.

not in a mainstream sense but there's a whole zone of guitar playing now that doesn't exist without Rose, a giant

Absolutely true. If only he could have seen it.

worth checking out: https://new.sound-o-mat.com/downloads.php

Very. I provided the liners via an old interview.

Huh, odd! Drop 'em a line.
