Yeah, if anyone hasn't heard Sarah Louise - A Field Guide it's great
Global I remember her saying some of the stuff she played at your house show was from the VDSQ

yeah that's why i'm stoked on it. she's got a great style

Ha, the Sarah Louise on Apple Music does not sound like what I was hoping for. Found the guitarist on Bandcamp.

haha i found her too once... i believe a song had 'riot' misspelled in its title as 'riat'
― global tetrahedron, Monday, 8 February 2016 18:34 (ten years ago)
Hmmm, a certain site keeps sliding Joe Bonamassa promoted clips to me. What does this mean?
― grandavis, Monday, 8 February 2016 18:42 (ten years ago)
The good Sarah Louise is wonderful!

I've never even heard of this one! I'm a Twilight Peaks fanatic so if this (released a year before) is anything in that neighborhood, count me in...

Also, no vinyl reissue?
― Wimmels, Wednesday, 10 February 2016 01:29 (ten years ago)
Sometimes they've had another label do the vinyl I think?

not heard this, but as another huge twilight peaks fan I'm stoked

reading a basho tracklist always puts a smile in my face, couldn't be anyone else

Anyone picking up that new Chuck Johnson full band LP Velvet Arc?
― Evan, Thursday, 11 February 2016 15:23 (ten years ago)
Haven't even heard any tracks from it. Interested to see where he (Chuck Johnson) takes it for sure.
― grandavis, Thursday, 11 February 2016 16:31 (ten years ago)
i dig it! blends the americana vibe w/ some spacier/minimalist moves very nicely. very much of a piece w/ his solo stuff, even though this is obviously more fleshed out.
― tylerw, Thursday, 11 February 2016 16:33 (ten years ago)
You know there is a perfectly solid track as a preview on soundcloud right now, but I know I remember a more interesting track from it released prior yet I cannot find it now...
― Evan, Thursday, 11 February 2016 16:34 (ten years ago)
Trad sounds mixed with spacier/minimalist moves basically a large part of my listening these days, so yeah I am probably going to get this in some form or another.
― grandavis, Thursday, 11 February 2016 16:45 (ten years ago)
What will the Donald Miller stuff be like I wonder? Pretty much only know his Borbetomagus power moves.
donald's solo guitar stuff is pretty good, i saw him play a great 12-string set once (opening for charalambides in his own living room circa 2003). i'd say it'll fit in well with the vdsq vibe.
― adam, Thursday, 11 February 2016 18:12 (ten years ago)
bummer :)
was hoping for full on destruction unit action, oh well
― the 'major tom guy' (sleeve), Thursday, 11 February 2016 18:15 (ten years ago)
Interested in Donald's take regardless of the direction. Always interesting to hear a distinct player mix it up.
― grandavis, Thursday, 11 February 2016 18:19 (ten years ago)
friend has a plus 1 for Godspeed You Black Emporer & Xylouris White tonight, stoked to see XW........
....also I like godspeed a lot more than is safe to admit on ilm :)
― uptown garfunkel (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 11 February 2016 18:20 (ten years ago)
just missed that show out here... I do not care for Godspeed, u should be ashamed of yourself, m@tt. however xylouris white are unbelievable, so good.
― tylerw, Thursday, 11 February 2016 18:28 (ten years ago)
i'll keep an eye out for you ums
― global tetrahedron, Thursday, 11 February 2016 18:37 (ten years ago)
xylouris white playing in my hood next week with elisa ambrogio, who is never not good, psyched
― adam, Thursday, 11 February 2016 18:40 (ten years ago)
oh yeah, that's going to be good
― tylerw, Thursday, 11 February 2016 18:45 (ten years ago)
Man I would sure like to see a Xylouris White + Elisa Ambrogio show! Gonna be awesome.
― grandavis, Friday, 12 February 2016 15:48 (ten years ago)
xylouris white was great! jim white's animal from muppets mannerisms are the best he is def one of my fav musicians of all time
godspeed was good! #fthehaterz *fire emoji* *100 emoji*
― uptown garfunkel (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 12 February 2016 16:17 (ten years ago)
yeah he is such a great drummer, maybe the *best* drummer.
― tylerw, Friday, 12 February 2016 16:25 (ten years ago)
I am cool with that statement
― the 'major tom guy' (sleeve), Friday, 12 February 2016 16:27 (ten years ago)
you guys checked out Nikos Xylouris yet? Greek musician -- George Xylouris' uncle I believe. was pretty famous in Greece, I guess -- kinda great stuff:

― tylerw, Friday, 12 February 2016 16:31 (ten years ago)
good show, getting pretty sick of really packed mainroom tho
― global tetrahedron, Friday, 12 February 2016 16:43 (ten years ago)
Man, I go to so many shows that struggle to get anyone to them, I forget what it is like to go to a packed main room. Just part of living in a small town.
― grandavis, Friday, 12 February 2016 16:45 (ten years ago)
i am so envious of jim white for getting to be the fichelscher in that duo. i do not think he is the best drummer, but he plays with a lot of feeling. do i remember people describing him as a "sympathetic" drummer?
― La Lechuza (La Lechera), Friday, 12 February 2016 17:10 (ten years ago)
yeah i think he's wonderful because he has a very personal/distinctive style, but doesn't ever overwhelm the music -- though w/ XW he's able to be a bit flashier. also the hair.
― tylerw, Friday, 12 February 2016 17:13 (ten years ago)
does the dirty three still exist? seems like it's been a few years since they did anything ... though maybe that is the norm for them.
― tylerw, Friday, 12 February 2016 17:14 (ten years ago)
yeah they work slow... I know they've played gigs in the last year, but the last album is 2012.
― the 'major tom guy' (sleeve), Friday, 12 February 2016 17:18 (ten years ago)
Most of the way through the Cass McCombs fronted Skiffle Players record that just came out and I think the regulars here will enjoy it. Though it's probably a good one to save for when it's safe to drive with the windows down again. Nice and breezy, mostly.
― Evan, Friday, 12 February 2016 19:20 (ten years ago)
some new-to-me guitar-y stuff I'm enjoying today ... https://hiiragi-fukuda.bandcamp.com/album/personal-server
― tylerw, Friday, 12 February 2016 19:44 (ten years ago)
sounds very nice so far
― moans and feedback (Dinsdale), Friday, 12 February 2016 21:00 (ten years ago)
yeah! not sure if it *goes* anywhere in particular, but that is OK in my book.
― tylerw, Friday, 12 February 2016 21:03 (ten years ago)
It is very pleasant to have music that doesn't "go" anywhere sometimes. Gonna check this out!
― grandavis, Friday, 12 February 2016 21:11 (ten years ago)
This could totally be a movie soundtrack. A good movie too.
― moans and feedback (Dinsdale), Friday, 12 February 2016 21:23 (ten years ago)
Well maybe not track 5.

I saw some live pics on my FB feed from a gig in Australia I want to say last week, but yeah I think them being spread all over the world and Ellis having his hands full being N.Cave's musical lieutenant seems to make everything take a very long time.
I've seen White play in a bunch of different contexts (Dirty 3, Nina Nastasia, Bonnie Prince Billy, Smog, Xylouris, etc) he is always awesome. Probably my fave musician was bummed to miss them last night.

The Ilyas Ahmed / Matt Carlson (of Golden Retriever) collab that was briefly mentioned about a year ago is coming out at the end of the month.

Imagine Tim Buckley sitting in on the first Cluster recording session or Neil Young with the Taj Mahal Travelers as Crazy Horse covering Popol Vuh and you are almost there.
― moans and feedback (Dinsdale), Saturday, 13 February 2016 13:10 (ten years ago)
Actually both members of GR are involved.

cian and cosmos were absolutely fucking amazing on friday night – best i've ever seen them by a distance.

sorry to ask this question a thousand times but was it the same drummer? david lacey i think his name is? this appears to be the same guy from the styledig this music and the rock wall too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4bMM9a0F8o
― La Lechuza (La Lechera), Monday, 15 February 2016 17:08 (ten years ago)
