ILX Gonna Shine in My Backdoor Someday (new post-Fahey folk for ppl posting in Takoma/Tompkins Square threads Pt II)

that doug tuttle is really good thanks alpine

he's one of my favorites of the past few years, but just be aware that his three solo albums are mostly perfect Beatles-esque psych-pop ... there's lots of pretty guitar arpeggios (or whatever), but it's usually paired w/ vocals and synths and swooshy psychedelics and stuff like that. but as far as that stuff goes, he's incredible. a bottomless well of melodies. (he also used to be in MMOSS if anyone remembers that band.)

New Sarah Louise!

nice! also pre ordered the tashi dorji/tyler damon live release on family vineyard... they were insane here in mpls, very excited

Man I would love to see Dorji/Damon live. I am sure the record will be cool enough but my guess is that live is the way to go.

it felt kinda legendary

Nice when a show has that kinda feel. Tashi is cool in that he keeps pushing himself via collaborators. Cool player for sure.

nice! also pre ordered the tashi dorji/tyler damon live release on family vineyard... they were insane here in mpls, very excited

maaaan how did i miss that?

The promo track from the Sarah Louise really surprised me. Is there any instrumental guitar on this?

Will look for the Dorji/Damon.

Nah, she sings on every track.

xxp there was a FB invite going around! it was at mirror lab/white page. seems to be the epicenter for this sort of stuff if and when it happens in mpls these days... a couple weeks ago was ka baird/paul metzger/john zuma individual sets and collab. i didn't go but heard great things. (m@tt b recorded it actually!)

love ka baird!
i have been a fan since the peak spires days -- i think she may be the chicago musician i have seen perform most frequently since for a while she/they were opening for everyone i wanted to see at the time
i like her traveling bell songs a lot too
spires has a really cool tape with drummer michael zerang too, it's probably on bandcamp? her stuff is always pleasantly far out. would recommend.

dang I quit Facebook for awhile it's kinda weird you end up very out of the loop

ah damn dude well i'll email you or something next time. you're not missing much otherwise

ka baird was also amazing at drone not drones! they professionally record and release that so for sure check it out when the time comes LL!

did we talk about this ezra feinberg record? i dig it! https://ezrafeinberg.bandcamp.com/releases
also, a new itasca tape over here: https://dovecove.bandcamp.com/album/itasca-morning-flower

new itasca is sounding great — mostly instrumental.

I don't think I can sit out 1000 Rose :) Got to be there for the buds and the family so to speak. It's probably one of the few moments where we (royal we) will get to all see each other in person? All at the same time and place—will be strange and exciting. But Willie Lane? Harry Taussig? Ragtime Ralph said he's going on the Yahoo forum, def will have to say hi to him. Grandavis let's meet up, plus anyone else reading that might be going.

Yeah, still trying to make sure I can get to this, but I should be there! Once I know for sure I will be in touch on how to meet up etc. Happy to do the same with any others looking to make this happen.

I really want to go, financially it might not be possible but if I can make it I would love to meet yall irl

i had a change of heart, see you all there :)

Why is the Itasca recording so hissy after the first two tracks?

Oh, it's just tracks 3 and 4 that sound like that.

Some really nice stuff there.

Nice Global, seems like I need to get on top of getting a ticket. Will be in touch as that event gets closer.

Wife and I are debating it! April might be a busy month for us as we're moving potentially around then.

This is what you guys are talking about?: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-thousand-incarnations-of-the-rose-a-festival-of-american-primitive-guitar-tickets-42515987463

yep, really hope my wife finds a job

Oh man, I just realized the exhaustive compilation Glenn told me he has been putting together has the same name as this festival The Thousand Incarnations of the Rose

oh wow

I knew it sounded familiar

See you there global! Getting my tix tomorrow I think, tbh it's prob not the most responsible thing in my life right now to purchase this, but dude—I'm looking forward to it. Will figure out sleeping situation later. Hope to see anyone there.

yep same deal, i just had to accept that i don't care about being responsible and also want to meet all you weirdos so ya

In which Byron Coley writes about Robbie Basho and talks with John Fahey about him. Also there is a sale.

Oh what the fuck, sorry, here tis: https://www.forcedexposure.com/Features/LatestFeature.html

And if you are a time traveler who gets here when that is no longer LatestFeature, hope the search box still works.

excellent read. fahey was such a bullshitter

basho always does sound like the biggest douche though

both weird jerks! good guitarists though.

lmao

FAHEY: No. It was just spoken and it was all fucked up. It was like, “American Indians are the same as Hindus,” and all that stuff. It wasn't even funny, it was so pitiful.

COLEY: He was the warrior of a lost tribe.

FAHEY: But he was the only one from the tribe. That was his trouble.

fahey low key one of the funniest musicians i can think of honestly

Considered going to this just to see the Basho doc. Bet it will be a fun time, but three days of DADGAD sounds like overkill to me

Any word on the release date for the Glenn Jones comp?

oh don't worry there will be plenty of open c :)

next thursday in greenfield is Xylouris White/ Scratch Ticket show. i'll be deejaying freedom music between sets. Scratch Ticket is Willie Lane's electric power trio with John & Rob of Sunburned. they are awesome. seems like people here would dig Xylouris White.

I saw them (XW) a while back and they were great

xylouris white put on one of the best gigs I've seen in the past decade or so.
does scratch ticket have any recordings? sounds like a good combo.

i think they will probably record? at some point.
