ASK SCOTT SEWARD

Mahalo,
Steve Shasta

How can I grow up to be like you?

i have one of those books! i've never read it though. i'll have to read that article.

hmmm, maybe.

i have no idea. i wouldn't recommend it. i lucked out. i have a lot to be thankful for, and i basically spent most of my adult life working shitty jobs, masturbating, drinking, and listening to lots of records. not exactly a recipe for success. the love of a good man/woman can go a long way.

I love you, Scott.

so many jokes, so many jokes

Nope, never heard of it, jaxon. Jaxon, I'm very disappointed in your non-love for America Eats Its Young. So many great songs on that thing.

What do you know? A four star review of the first album on AMG. Surely, that was another hippie record that must have gotten one or two stars in the old Rolling Stone record guides.

but then for this album they went all doomy organ psych with a bit of jazz and funk. if you listen to this track from diplo's psych/funk mix at 4:15 you can hear it. it's fucking massive.

So true about those covers too. It's like, every copy you would find of the first one would ALWAYS have the blue color flaking off leaving white splotches all over the place, so it looked like the lady was standing in snowstorm or sumthin. It took me forever to find a decent one. Same thing with Marrying Maiden -- all the open white space would always be all browned and dirt-laden and shit; took forever to find a nice sparkly white one

i don't remember why i once wanted to buy this. i even had it scribbled on my list in my wallet.

i think it was on recommendation from you once, but can't remember.

so i put it back

help me out. did you recommend this?

but I've never actually got into the Delaney & Bonnie stuff. I only know the Klapton/Mason/Harrison stuff. but I that Skot is the only person I can recall big upping the D&Bs. So, what do I need Skot? everything?? I'll probably buy it all anyway. I think you would like this stuff too, JaX! do you know "Only You Know & I know" ? that is one hell of a shit-hot cut.

Fascinating one year period or so for all of the involved, things moved fast. The early "Tell The Truth" / "Roll It Over" single by the D&Ds totally sounds like punk at times.

here's a track of Delanie & Bonnie's that's on the Country Got Soul comp. sounds like prime motown.

The early "Tell The Truth" / "Roll It Over" single by the D&Ds totally sounds like punk at times YOU GOT THAT RITE BRO

this is where I can confess to liking Eric Clapton's s/t solo debut and Dave Mason's Alone Together. A lot.

why r u being a dick?

Why are you so cool? When can you and your wife come to Miami?

why am i being a dick? why do you want i love film to just sit there dead with one post a month? i think that's weirder than me wanting to have some fun and post some pictures. maybe some actual interest in the board will revive things. or maybe not. i really don't care. feel free to start your own threads! i always liked the idea of a movie, sorry, "film" board. till i saw what it was like and decided to stick with ile. you want to retain its purity or something? am i defiling a corpse?

alfred, if i'm cool it's because i'm not afraid to ask the HARD questions in the face of public disapproval!

MARCELLO MASTROIANNI -VS- JIM VARNEY

and i don't know when we will make it to miami. i'm not against the idea. if i had my way it would be in winter though.

hi scott,

is there any mexican death metal that is about aztecs, yknow like how scandanavian death metal is about vikings and stuff? cos that would be really cool.

thanks,
bell_labs

Hey Scott,

I like you. I liked your Agalloch review. I got the record and it's great and I know nothing about metal. Can I pay you to make me a mix cd?

Adam

is there any mexican death metal that is about aztecs
^^ this is a good idea

scott, do you like NJ metal band Overlorde? tell me something about them.

it really was a hoot to me when i was 12 or 13. along with doper dan, the freak brothers, fat freddy's cat, omaha the cat dancer, all those guys. flakey floont. mr natural. it didn't matter. i mean, if i would actually send away for doper dan comix i obviously would read anything. slow death. bizarre sex. hiroshima gen. weirdo. creepy. eerie. heavy metal. epic. i didn't care what it was. it was all weird and i wanted all weird. but i haven't read it in a zillion years and i almost can't believe that he still does it.

^^^ awesome post

there may be aztec metal. it's possible. i am all for further myth exploration. all kinds. i wish there were metal bands that based their cosmos on african myths! and ancient egypt doesn't really count. or indian mythology. chinese mythology. so much to explore.

adam, by the time i made you a mix cd you would be old or dead. my advice would be to last fm it. i am ALWAYS hearing cool stuff on there. just type in agalloch as a tag. or funeral doom. or pagan metal. works like a charm. so much great stuff on there.

i don't think i've ever heard overlorde.

Yeah, Scott, thanks for talking up Agalloch on ILM. It made me DL their last few recs and I love them now.

metal bands that based their cosmos on african myths

those people who had the aliens from sirius would be cool

Is there a Varg Vikernes of the Arab world, who shuns Islam for the pre-Mohammedian gods?

Scott is on ILX hiatus til winter, he said. :(

waht

I think this officially marks the passing of the last of the original bebop greats."

roy haynes would like a word with you...

anyway, rip. max was the coolest.
