had that on loop yesterday & actually it isn't so different to any other prime time (& therefore excellent) save the first two tracks which cheese it up a little. possibly less odd than the mushroomsy "free daytime-tv funk-lite" ornette & co managed on the prime time disc of "of all languages"

Ooh, hadn't taken note of that nice Dead art befitting that hallowed Cornell set

Reunion lp by Brighton based indie band. It doesn't have the same continually refractive echoplexed guitar textures taht I loved about Euphoria, I t does continue with the singers intensely personal lyrics and delivery.
I have it on my 3 changer and I think it has so happened that I haven't had it turn up as consciously as the other 2 discs on there. So I'm not as familiar with it after a week. Don't think I like it as much as Euphoria but it's ok.

Eastern tinged kraut jamming. Nice angular but fluid take on rock , I enjoy the textures in the playing.
I think I found some live stuff from them a few years ago that I was really into. Not sure why it took so long to get a physical copy of the music though. This came as part of a 2disc set of the 1st 2 lps. Not heard teh 2nd one yet, have heard teh Eastern tinge has gone. THis 1st disc has the lp followed by an almost complete set of demoes for the tracks on it. & I've been listening through it all in one sitting that hasn't seemed like overkill.

THis is the box set still which for some reason has the first half of Rejuvenation on a disc with Cabbage Alley. I think Rejuvenation seems to be seen as about their best lp so you would think it might have been kept separate. But the box is 6 discs as it is.
Still splitting it seems a weird decision.
I think I'm more conscious of the tracks on Cabbage Alley which are pretty great. Some of teh tracks feature some pretty wildly heavy guitar though not sure it does tap straight into the same place as conscioulsy heavy rock bands did. maybe its coming straight from the source instead of being a recontextualised thing. BUT as per the first 2 discs this is superlative. One of the better sets I've picked up recently so glad i chose it to replace the Trees box that wasn't about to appear. Great Birthday present.

Like most things Reznor, not subtle, but rather nice for working.

― no lime tangier

it hits me just right, obviously more vibe/mood/sound than tunes at this late stage in their craft, but I dig it (I always preferred their lengthier, more meandering stuff). definitely worth a listen on Bandcamp.

2nd disc of this comprehensive set of teh 60s recordings . Pretty superlative. What a voice and nice accompaniment of things like fuzz guitar and stuff.
Some great songs too.
Do wonder how much of this turned up in beat etc covers and was thought to be innovative in the white bands arrangements. Cos it does sound like it should have been recognised as pretty new in teh originals.
NOt heard either other disc yet. So something to look forward to. Though Ugly Things review wasn't overly positive, hope that was just something deeply subjective.

Reunion lp by Brighton based indie group. I thing their Euphoria is awesome and so this is not quite up to those standards.
Have heard it a bit more than last week.I think its pretty good but Euphoria is a high bar to reach so not sure how much I'm going to play this.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/w/3ed8c27f7107ff5c7d9cf7a0b6fbc4ec/2827989
1971 lp by Wilson Pickett sees him backed by Muscle Shoals band. Which is odd because some of teh tracks on here verge on disco which is further odd since this is about 3 years or more before that sound really popularised.
Some of this is really really funky but some just seems to get into machine repetition or something. I don't get it, maaybe need to co0mpare with an original release of the lp or something
I have this as a 2cd with the lp before In Philadelphia where the producers are Gamble & Huff before their popularity really took off.
It has some really good bonus material on where Wilson appears to be revisiting his gospel roots turning some tracks into near spoken word sermon like.
I was intrigued by what other artists better known for earlier musical styles were doing at the turn of the 70s after hearing the Little Richard lp the Rill Thing and being reminded of teh Al Green Gets Next To You lp by a thread that appeared here. So wanted to check out Wilson and some of this si good and some of it I wish was better. The In Philadelphia lp is quite great.
