ill give you a cool fiver

69 (plsmith), Monday, 22 January 2007 21:30 (seventeen years ago) link

nah, if it comes to that (and with ComEd rate change doubling my electric bill it may) i'll take shit to the record store and sell it all at once.

chicago kevin (chicago kevin), Monday, 22 January 2007 21:38 (seventeen years ago) link

so i'm going thru a box of CDs and i find that wakhevitch box on fractal and i think ooh you know i could probably get money for that on ebay cuz really i can just burn the cds and it's not like it's the swankest package in the world i mean if i had the original vinyl i would keep THOSE and then i look on fractal's site and you can STILL buy it on there! who knew? they only made 500 copies a zillion years ago and they still have copies? i would have thought it was long out of print by now. so i will just keep mine and listen to it like i'm supposed to.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 23 January 2007 00:05 (seventeen years ago) link

still available, huh? i tried to get it from forced exposure several months ago but it was unavailable. if you ever do decide to sell it, scott, let me know?

i am re-listening to mix tape and getting really pissed at the inconsistent levels on it. side 1 is quiter than side 2 overall, but side 2 kind of jumps around a bit too.

the fractal website doesn't list it as sold out. from them it's around 80 bucks. but i looked and there was one other place that had it on line for,like, 70 bucks.

Days full of rain
skys comin' down again
I get so tired of these same old blues
same old song
Baby, it won't be long 'fore I be tyin' on
my flyin' shoes
flyin' shoes
till I be tyin' on my flyin' shoes

Spring only sighed
summer had to be satisfied
fall is a feelin' that I just can't lose.
I'd like to stay,
maybe watch a winter day
turn the green water
to white and blue
flyin' shoes
flyin' shoes
till I be tyin' on
my flyin' shoes

The mountain moon
forever sets too soon
bein' alone is all the hills can do
alone and then
her silver sails again
and they will follow
in their flyin' shoes
flyin' shoes
they will follow in their
flyin' shoes

Days full of rain
skys comin' down again
I get so tired
of the same old blues
same old song
Baby, it won't be long
till I be tyin' on
my flyin' shoes
flyin' shoes
till I be tyin' on
my flyin' shoes

ian, what do you think about that goodnight loving record?

chicago kevin (chicago kevin), Tuesday, 23 January 2007 14:10 (seventeen years ago) link

i LOVE it. it took me a while to get past the indie-isms (especially with some of the vocals) but it's so catchy, and the songs are so good! put "shortwave" on the mix I was making over the weekend.

be home by 11 (orion), Tuesday, 23 January 2007 14:19 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, i'm still not really into it. i was looking forward to it after seeing them in may but the record left me pretty cold. everyone else save one other person i've talked to loves it.

must be me.

chicago kevin (chicago kevin), Tuesday, 23 January 2007 14:20 (seventeen years ago) link

naw, one of the guys i work with doesn't dig it, so ya'll aren't totally alone. i think the indie/alt-country kinda vibes can be kind of off-putting, but once i found some of the songs sticking in my head i figured i should just give in and accept my love for it. they're playing here in march with the turpentine brothers & DC snipers.

be home by 11 (orion), Tuesday, 23 January 2007 14:24 (seventeen years ago) link

don't get me wrong, there are some SERIOUS lyrical clunkers in there.

be home by 11 (orion), Tuesday, 23 January 2007 14:25 (seventeen years ago) link

i think the indie/alt-country kinda vibes can be kind of off-putting... some SERIOUS lyrical clunkers

that's pretty much it. first song on side one is catchy as hell though. when in march is that show?

bb (bbrz), Tuesday, 23 January 2007 16:13 (seventeen years ago) link

listening to a bunch of stuff i bought in St Louis this weekend

forbidden planet ost
john carpenter - dark star
vangelis - earth
yellowman - nobody move, nobody get hurt
common sense - voices inside my head
pieces of a dream - mt. airy groove
jimmy cliff - unlimited

have any of you guys heard that forbidden planet? early electronic music made on circuit boards by Louis and Bebe Barron. sounds a lot like the Delia Derbyshire stuff.

dmr (Renard), Tuesday, 23 January 2007 18:15 (seventeen years ago) link

weird, i watched forbidden planet this weekend

jaxon (jaxon), Tuesday, 23 January 2007 19:49 (seventeen years ago) link

it's pretty cool

the guy played me another one but it was more regular disco without the spacey whooshes

but still pretty good

I think it was Just Can't Help Myself

dmr (Renard), Tuesday, 23 January 2007 19:57 (seventeen years ago) link

now I'm listening to the jg wilkes walkabout mix, it came in the mail while I was in missouri

tom ze "Danç-Êh-Sá" (so whack the review i wrote was a play starring robert wyatt, diplo, and laurie anderson as LOTR chars.)
deerhoof $_ (man!)
rockers hi-fi "push push" single (loving this.)
shins $_ (why try to deny it?)
caetano v. "ce" (a rock record? hmm. cool.)
of montreal $_ (no reaction yet. but if any of these songs end up remixed in crapazppy ways and used as commercial songs ...)
fujiya and miyagi $_ = imitate($stereolab); #debug later

these new records from c.v. and t.z. ... intriguing. the last c.v. i heard was boring balladry. t.z. has been in similar protesty lands... maybe not as boring... but both these records are really pretty good. (in way different ways.)

he's sharing stuff that I'm currently negotiating to legally reissue as downloads, with liner notes and remastering and stuff. I'll kindly ask for it to be taken down once contracts are signed. And I have to hope out of the 20 people who care about this stuff, only a few of them have downloaded it already!

It's definitely one of the most amazing mp3 blogs out there though. Really up a certain alley that I'm totally into.

xpost at dan, i wonder how many re-issue labels are inpired by or skrew-id by the share blogs. i've often wondered how Radioactives koffers are these days?

Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 24 January 2007 18:30 (seventeen years ago) link

ok, so my partner here at work has been dutifully filling a xtrnl hardrive with "the cannon". im being decent and letting him have the majority of sonic space while he shuffles through lord knows what...

right now: queen "best friend"

my comment: "'oooooh you make me live' (sung) are those the words? why do i even know the words? you know this song is pretty amazing. everyone should be embarassed that it exists, yet ... noone is. and almost for good reason"

maybe im not being decent.

now its digable planets

bb (bbrz), Wednesday, 24 January 2007 18:53 (seventeen years ago) link

queen can do no wrong. they completely slay most rock bands. at least 90% of all rock bands.

scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 24 January 2007 18:55 (seventeen years ago) link

thats entirely the thing. here we have what should be AMAZINGLY awful (flash gordon, some other single i can't remember) and never work...yet, its usallly great.

bb (bbrz), Wednesday, 24 January 2007 19:06 (seventeen years ago) link

they were just geniuses is all it is. and they all wrote great songs. all four of them.

I'm still amazed at the number of people who hate them. I guess I can see why they'd turn off people, maybe because they're way over the top, theatrical, whatever -- but then I still don't get it. Rock can't be over the top or theatrical? Is it just the operatic vox that kill it for people? Even so, do they realize that not every Queen song has those? And even so, can they not hear ROCK when it happens?

Dominique (dleone), Wednesday, 24 January 2007 19:16 (seventeen years ago) link

i can't imagine not liking Queen

feed latebloomer (latebloomer), Wednesday, 24 January 2007 19:19 (seventeen years ago) link

cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 24 January 2007 19:22 (seventeen years ago) link

good songs: its true...they could play alright too,

though i might have to call "living on my own" a pile of crap.

i dont understand how people can throw knives at queen, but like stuff like journey. or def leopard.

somehow after a couple queen numbers his shuffle has moved onto a weird obsession with the crappy band songs from the official release of "the basement tapes" ... go back to the queen, machine

or im putting kim fowley back on.

bb (bbrz), Wednesday, 24 January 2007 19:22 (seventeen years ago) link

dan, you don't have to answer me, but knowing your tastes, are you putting out the b3nder stuff? because that stuff's been pretty available online for a while.

jaxon (jaxon), Wednesday, 24 January 2007 19:23 (seventeen years ago) link

he's sharing stuff that I'm currently negotiating to legally reissue as downloads, with liner notes and remastering and stuff. I'll kindly ask for it to be taken down once contracts are signed

if it doesn't screw with the negotiations, no reason not to send him a polite advance message that you're already hoping for reissues... I'm definitely mixed about mp3 blogs, the idea that out of print albums are fair game definitely diffuses the incentive for anyone to reissue physical copies, all I can say is there are still maniacs there to invest when someone does, I bought the Cluster reissues on Water even though I already owned the Sky CDs just because they looked so fantastic, I am a sucker

milton parker (Jon L), Wednesday, 24 January 2007 19:24 (seventeen years ago) link

who hates queen?! that's so wrong. they did so many things so very well. they could do anything! hard rock, metal, punk, pop, disco, whatever. they were the best.
