i. julio today i found yr tape after exactly 3 seconds of looking, right in the middle of the shelf where i looked abt 4567878 times before = the work of the 50000000-yr-old alien martian goblins of hob's lane
ii. remind me was it LICK MY DECALS?
iii. i am back in action and thinking abt stuff on this thread (eg FREAK OUT at the moment, since i actually own it)
iv. don't stop till i get enough (obv i shall have to supply at least some comeback)
v. once again thx all, i am going to get my slsk chops in order soon and then hob's yr uncle

― mark s (mark s), Sunday, 18 May 2003 12:42 (twenty years ago) link

yes it was lick my decals. on both sides. the remaining 5 mins was taken up with a secret extra track for you to guess (you have talked abt this track before on ILM, um maybe not this exact one track but you have talked abt the artist and what he is doing, this is also taped on both sides).

Mungo Jerry's "Tramp"

Keely Smith was a smooth old jazz singer who was married to and worked with the mighty Louis Prima, until he caught her "performing s sex act on" (I can only think of one thing anyone would describe thus) an agent, I think it was.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Sunday, 18 May 2003 21:39 (twenty years ago) link

the version of that story i heard had this guy doing it w. keely & then he became aware of someone LICKING HIS BALLS, he turned round & Louis Prima punched him in the face

― duane, Sunday, 18 May 2003 21:58 (twenty years ago) link

best breakup story evah!

― M Matos (M Matos), Sunday, 18 May 2003 22:01 (twenty years ago) link

oh man. I had no idea that's how Prima and Keely Smith broke up. That's...ugh. me no like that story.

Interstellar Space by John Coltrane and Rashied Ali since you seem to have dismissed St John (which is pretty understandable if you've ever read anyone write about him or if you've ever been stuck in a room with someone talking about how spiritual A Love Supreme is).

― hamish (hamish), Monday, 19 May 2003 08:40 (twenty years ago) link

well, if spirituality = dull, i guess. i agree. that record is annoying anyway. add full muso desription of what a giant step giant steps is, and why ad infinatum.

― gaz (gaz), Monday, 19 May 2003 08:51 (twenty years ago) link

that record is annoying anyway.

Which one? Interstellar Space or A Love Supreme?

― hamish (hamish), Monday, 19 May 2003 09:31 (twenty years ago) link

i already like interstellar space hamish, but i will relisten and write about it i promise

― mark s (mark s), Monday, 19 May 2003 09:40 (twenty years ago) link

albert ayler does not make spirituality dull tho'.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Monday, 19 May 2003 09:42 (twenty years ago) link

where you stand on Sandinista! is thee acid test. What's the sinkah-view?

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Monday, 19 May 2003 09:50 (twenty years ago) link

agree julio. its the conception of spirituality that certain a love supreme apologists feel obliged to weary you with that's dull.

ALS hamish.

― gaz (gaz), Monday, 19 May 2003 12:09 (twenty years ago) link

love supreme apologists? spirituality or no, what is there to apologize for about one of the most unique and intense bands in jazz (or anything else) throwing down?

You may never get to it but the Luda album is in fact named "Back For The First Time".

"Southern Hospitality" is just the great single from it.

Mark, did you ever listen to the Rough Guide tape I sent you (A Rough Guide to Music the Rough Guide Wouldn't Touch with a Ten-Foot Pole)? Not that I'd expect it to change you, but I want to know who you think rocks harder, Celine or LeAnn.

― Frank Kogan (Frank Kogan), Monday, 9 June 2003 22:36 (twenty years ago) link

If I can get my tape deck working properly, I will try to do you a tape of those I cite above. And maybe some other people's, if I have room and the tunes. It'll be an enjoyable tape even if you don't write about it.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 25 September 2004 11:46 (nineteen years ago) link

Of the tracks nominated I can only find Shaky Mo's Johnny Otis and Ethan's Limp Bizkit/Method Man choices. And I'll add something by the Rebirth Brass Band, suggested by Jordan, too.

mark, while we are giving you things to do, I'd like to recommend Ned Sublette's recent Cuba & Its Music (which I assume you know about, and may even have read for all I know).

― RS LaRue (rockist_scientist), Saturday, 1 January 2005 16:21 (nineteen years ago) link

you were not very nice to somebody (composer) in your rise and spral (of horrible noise, not yr behind the music rise and sprawl). you know who i mean. listen again. then come to the Real Dirty South (the one where we can't afford ipods and Lil Jon CDs). and make and sell and buy and even listen to loose joints (in the mixtape sense). on the street. keeping your bias normal, your case low, your new year off-white, and represent.
