thread of scottness

I was hoping to find "The Iceman", his 'not-for-airplay' novelty record from the late 70s, but there's no trace of it on youtube. I guess he's got a Bear Family box, which surprised me.

you can listen to our radio show now if you are bored:

http://wvvy.org/

it's on until midnight eastern time in amerikkka.

don't know what it will sound like though!

i put stuff on tapes and then maria puts them in the computer and manipulates them and adds stuff, so it's always a surprise to me.

we'll get the hang of what we are doing. but hopefully not too much. i like things rough & ready.

okaY if you were high right now you would be loving our show. sounds great. maria is a wizzzzzzzzzzzz. too bad nobody will probably hear it.

i really want to start an exerimental/noise/fx/tape/cut&paste/muzeeeek konkreeeete/avant whatsit mp3 website. i'm serious too. just have to figure out the money angle of hosting a site with lots of audio content. all for NEW free stuff. though i guess archival stuff too if people want to give some to me.

Chet Atkins plays "Wildwood Flower". Watch the face of the other guitarist in the blue denim jacket as Chet pulls off insanely hard-to-play licks

Sleepeier take on the same tune, Oslo 1964:

I like the way he looks diffident most of the time, but occasionally you see this slightly smug look cross his face, like he knew exactly how hot shit he was.

That Les Paul and Mary Ford clip is charming & funny.

more awesome random guitarage:

killer live last exit clip from frankfurt (this is actually best for peter brotzman fans, but sonny tears shit up too)

Maybe Scott would like to see The Changes with music from Paddy Kingsland?

Man how I love Chet Atkins.

i used to check youtube for that clip of wire on the joan rivers show and i could never find it but i found it today:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=WrpVS7m3tX0

you remember. when suzanne somers was guest-hosting and acting all goofy and wire were acting all wire-y. gotta love it. plus, they sound awesome and i can only imagine what the audience thought.

so i met this woman at that wedding i went to and she was very nice and she teaches film and makes films and i asked her if she had made anything that i might have seen and she said oh you know i've made some shorts and stuff and some stuff that's been on the sundance channel and i have this movie that's gonna be shown on showtime called road and i was like oh okay cool do you know my brother in law andy? i always ask new york film people this cuz andy is the only new york film person i know and it's a small world and all and andy's cool. but what she neglected to tell me was that she made the awesome short film BLIXA BARGELD STOLE MY COWBOY BOOTS!!!! i love that one. that one stars michael imperioli and it is very short but very funny. and i love the title. and i love all things blixa cuz i want to have his babies. don't tell my wife.

halber mensch video by ishii sogo:

this was one of my favorite songs in 1983. "soft core" by Maurice & the Cliches. i still play the 12 inch maybe once a year. i even have the album! i don't play the album much though. i kinda forget what the rest of it sounds like.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=DJlR-viNea0

(they played this on my local college radio station A LOT back then.)

totally awesome spaced-out intro music to some 70's bbc supernatural kidz series called *children of the stones*:

wickerman meets harmonic choir

hey scott,

do you know anything about Skid Row (the old band w/Gary Moore not the 80s band)...worth checking out?

the first album is good. progressive hard/blues rock. i don't remember how much i've heard after that. they didn't put out a ton of records. definitely worth checking out if you like gary moore. same with the coliseum II records that gary is on if you dig crazy prog jams.

just in case people have never seen it, this is one of the greatest rateyourmusic lists there is and almost everything on it has a myspace link to listen to album tracks. you'll be there for DAYS if you like this kind of thing. i know i was when i found it.

http://rateyourmusic.com/lists/list_view?list_id=124163&show=50&start=0

i've been tempted to send the person who put it together an e-mail of thanks. cuz as much as i wish i had the zillion dollars i would need to buy all those records, that ain't happening anytime soon.

new edition of our radio show on at nine tonight:

http://wvvy.org/

i like how this one sounds. not as lysergic as past episodes though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V18LxxA4jiw

Magazine play "Definitive Gaze" w/gnarliness turned waaaay up. Great! I love this band.

that magazine clip went away before i got to see it :(

oh, hey, i came here for a reason.

should i make a nerdrock/powerpop/skinnytie mix or a countryrock mix a la that california country rock 70's thread?

um, for eventual ilm consumption. i feel like making a mix...

I'd prefer country rock but you should do what you feel.

country rock

country rock definiiiteeelllyyyy.

bootleg live sandy denny:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzuAdomOreA

okee muskokeeeeee i'll do a countryrok one.

that milk & cookies reissue has been rockin' me all week, so that's why i thought of a pop mix. i'll do one of those after. i've got lots of cool stuff on 45 that would be good to have on digital/disc.

i'll link up my fave vids of recent weeks though:

the quick - no no girl

the quick - it won't be long

awesome clip of holly & the italians on the old grey whistle test:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aLZnCjD8vQ

Cool! I was listening to the Pop's Go! tonight -- found a really beautiful copy a few weeks ago.

So this might be too obvious...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9QDuvmg6is

really digging this track from the new urfaust ep:

http://www.myspace.com/urfaustfans

(oh, it's the untitled one. second one on their list of songs. great synthdoom nuttiness.)

i think maybe there has never been a cooler chick than the girl from Prisencolinensinainciusol (Hello Everyone's first link). at exactly 1:49 i fall in love. every time.

loving this:

also, since i was just listening to it, here's one of my fave songs of all time. don farden's (i'm a HUGE don farden fan) "Belfast Boy" - his epic tribute to George Best - with one of the greatest way ahead of it's time synth riffs ever. why nobody did an acid house remix is beyond me.

(sound quality isn't the hottest, but, whatever...)

thanks, scott, i always thought Ferrante & Teicher had some hip shit. great video.

and i only knew Don Fardon's "Indian Reservation". that song is amazing.

this is for you. do you know the flamenco prog group Carmen? here's their track Stepping Stone. kinda reminds me a bit of a funky version of System of a Down (in a good way, since they're one of the few nu-metal groups i don't turn off when they come on the radio or mtv)

SCOTT!! attention!!

This mix is called "Take a stroll through your mind" and is a selection of songs with a psychedelic feel from around the world. All of the music is from the late 1960s and early 70s (1967 - 1975) when psychedelic sounds spread to all corners of the globe. There is something about the warmth and the tone of this music, especially that fuzz guitar that sends me into ecstasy. It make me feel as if I am wrapped in cotton wool. While psychedelic music can often sound like a bunch of stoners making a freaked out racket, all of the songs here are exquisitely joyous, beautifully crafted pieces of music, often with ideas and production that still sounds ahead of the curve. Not all of these tracks are intentionally psychedelic, but all have that certain something that can transport one to another place and another time. All the tracks were recorded from vinyl and in some cases the records aren't in tip top condition or were fairly poor pressings to begin with (especially the African records), so apologies for the fidelity in a few places. Hopefully the wonder of the music still shines through. Once again we aren't making a tracklisting available for the podcast but if you want to know what anything is, feel free to get in touch and we will let you know. None of the tracks are mixed but are all segued together. In order, the tracks are from the following countries - USA / Zambia / USA / USA / USA / UK / Algeria / Egypt / Brazil / Nigeria / Mexico / Mexico / USA. The mix contains 13 tracks and lasts 69 minutes and the download is a 192kbps mp3 (90mb). Enjoy.

(Oh, OK, so I misunderstood the thread title on purpose then ;) )

have you heard this Snail record? i think you'd totally dig it. my mom used to live w/the band in Santa Cruz in the 70s. i've heard from 2 older hippy types that lived there then that they were like the top band in the area at the time. great country rock jams and some spacier moments
