Rolling 2008 Vinyl Thread

Wah Wah does high quality stuff in general, but the Musica Dispersa didn't blow me away. They're the label that just did a big batch of kosmische folk stuff. Emtidi, Holderin, Broselmaschine.

Was it Wah Wah who re-issued that Miguel Cantilo record? I can't remember now.

Dunno. I had my eye on Broselmaschine too though. They also rereleased Astrud Gilberto with Stanley Turrentine, which I love. Deodato produced on CTI. 2 stars, sez AMG!

nice vinyl reissues:
gene clark - white light
yves, serge & victor - cagibi (french 70s rural psych with neil young-isms)

How are those new(-ish?) Beefheart reissues? I saw ...Decals... and the rest in shop the other day and nearly fainted.

Cool new releases:
Bruce Russell - 21st Century Field Hollers & Prison Songs (this sounds more like Graham Lambkin's solo records than it does the Dead C; very demanding listening.)
Pigeons LP on Black Dirt (Carter Thornton plus members of the Sea Donkeys make pastoral psychedelia with folk & country overtones. Lush femme vox in French and English, very very recommended.)

Actually, this Ronnie Urini guy looks like he's quite a character.

gnarly s

Had a 45 on Sympathy years back, as Ron Urini & the Wild Bunch: "Wild Venus on Wheels" b/w something or other. Squareish retro garage-punk, but with a certain novelty value deriving from the fact that his "venus" comes out "wenus". In other words, typical Sympathy stuff.

kraftwerk - computer world lp
kraftwerk - trans europe express lp
the boys - the boys lp
close lobsters - foxheads stalk this land lp (!!!!!!!!)
the wedding present - anyone can make a mistake 12"

michael hurley - long journey
carly simon - greatest hits vol. 1 (like 80% awesome)
hoover s/t (NOT THE DISCHORD BAND HOOVER)
takehisa kosugi - violin solo
sandy bull - demolition derby (underrated; has "coming together" "tennessee waltz" and "last date" which are all awesome.)
the reel world string band s/t (private(?) bluegrass/old-timey-ish country record by feminists.)
the dead c - the operation of the sonne
v/a - a collection of mountain songs 1927-1930
muhal richard abrams - live at montreux 1978

i also listened to a rather late (1988) Jerome Cooper LP a few days ago that was surprisingly awesome. Had Joseph Jarman and William Parker on it amongst others.

re: electricsound - damn,that cows 45 is great!

yeah i slept on picking up most of those insipid vinyl 45s when they were easy to get.. so i'm making up for lost time

hoover s/t (NOT THE DISCHORD BAND HOOVER)

you really like this album though? I remember really digging the first track but then the rest never grabbed me. yellow-label Epic is always such an adventure

I do really like that album, Stormy.
The song about needing a woman to take care of him, the faux-hippy 8 minute closer... love it. I think the dude's got a nice voice, too, if a bit generic. It's easy to listen to.

I think the YANOSKA LP is on yellow label Epic too. That one's pretty much a clunker, except for the "LOL times they are a changin" feeling when there's a whole song that denigrates a woman and repeatedly calls her a whore. ahead of its time!

Mention of Dischord reminded me - I saw a copy of The Kids Will Have Their Say by SSD in a record shop this week, for £12, which would be a deal I think since it goes for a ton on Ebay, but I think it might be a bootleg cos Dischord was spelt Discord on the back, plus it was in far too good condition. They had Get It Away as well which made me more suspicious. £12 is too much for a bootleg!

Try coming to America where you'll routinely see needle-drop psych bootlegs for $30 or more! Evil evil evil.

Got Peter Grudzien's "The Unicorn" in the mail this week and it is incredible. The bonus lp, "The Garden of Love," is easily just as good, maybe even better.

glad you're enjoying it, man. that's such an amazing record. i regret not getting the double LP when i had the chance (but not the ready cash.) Just have to stick with my CD for now.

horace silver - cape verdean blues
frank zappa - waka/jawaka promo
nick drake - byrter layter (homeless guy sold it to me, weird)

FYI vinyl junkies, drag city has put Red Hash out on LP with bonus 7", heavy-style jacket, lyric sheet etc. And also done a new edition of Corky's Debt To His Father on LP.

FYI vinyl junkies, drag city has put Red Hash out on LP with bonus 7", heavy-style jacket, lyric sheet etc.

Great news. What took them so long?

I'm gonna need that Corky's Debt lp for sure.

the bonus 7" on the higgins is just the cd bonus tracks, right?

I believe so.
The Corky's Debt LP has bonus tracks too; i'm not sure what the Drag City CD issue is like.

haha ... I saw the Corky's thing at my local record store tonite .. the "bonus" 7 inch is a recording of John Cage's 4'11" !

well, one side is. The other side is an actual song, but i don't remember what the title is. (disclaimer: haven't actually listened to the bonus 45 yet.)

hmm .. actually the joke might be on me .. when I saw the original blurb on the DC website that they were going to rerelease it, I just assumed the bonus 7" would be the Saddlesore stuff.

but I just looked at the DC website again and apparently the 7" is not just "4'11"" but also some track named "Woof" !

crap .. maybe I will need to trade in my old Drag City vinyl issue for this new one after all...

finally got
Wolf Eyes - River Slaughter

and

Aaron Dilloway - Chain Shot

last scores:

Dylan - Biograph 5LP box set (not bad for $30)
Led Zep - somehow, a sealed copy of Physical Grafitti, how does that happen??
Judas Priest - Stained Class

sell the copy of physical graffiti on ebay if you haven't opened it already!
