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

sunwatchers and nick millevoi are playing on the same bill on sunday but it's the same night charalambides are playing. please advise.

Gotta go to Charalambides. There is no question (I mean, you can't really lose, but who knows how many times you will get to see Charalambides ....)

ha yeah, from what i gather the Charalambides gigs aren't a full-fledged comeback, so who knows when the next chance you'll get to see them will be.

i saw them play 13 or so years ago in donald miller's living room, it was a transformative experience. yall are right.

Charalambides would win this no matter who was playing the other show

Sleeve is correct

Let us all bask in the glow and majesty of the most recent Charalambides record. I would honestly be cool w/ this tune being played at my funeral:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KuJ_ND6S6A

I would probably be a blubbering mess by the end of this if I saw it live.

I specifically have that song listed in my funeral instructions

Into the Earth is a thing of majesty, but mine would probably have to be Dormant Love.

I didn't mean to embed mine, sorry for the youtube bombing. How the hell do I not embed a youtube again? Had hoped the using the url tags would keep it a url, you know?

Also that Charalambides song does indeed also rule.

What grandavis said - I tried not to embed!

And thanks for the Spotify playlist update. The Chuck Johnson tracks are glorious.

playlist somewhat updated:

ILM's Rolling Post-Fahey Folk Thread 2016 Spotify Playlist

forks robbing me of my tastemaker status in the american primitive underground what do i have left ;_;

The playlist is very fond of a 'choogle', innit - it's as much post Neil Young as it is post-Fahey!

that's likely a function of which artists / labels have catalogue on spotify

as per the earlier kerfuffle, i would love to see someone pick up my slack and build soundcloud/youtube playlists as well.

anyone heard of these instruments?? this rules

http://www.vhfrecords.com/catalog/jesse-sparhawk-eric-carbonara-sixty-strings-lpcd-vhf129

"Sixty Strings is an album of two epic duets by Eric Carbonara (22-string upright Chaturangui guitar) and Jesse Sparhawk (38 string lever harp)."

this is a zillion xps but if anyone wants to hear our set on friday it's on my soundcloud :)

Link?

sorry i was on my phone before, ta da https://soundcloud.com/marshmallowy/sets/sabertooth-dream-22616-live-at-elastic-arts

i'm no jim white but i'm +/- ok with how it turned out

i don't think the style really fits this thread but you're an open minded bunch

i listened to this -- and I LIKED IT. eno cover really takes off!

thanks! i'm glad you liked it! :D i felt like i had just started cookin and then the set was over but i guess it's better to play too little than too much.

Wow that is great!
Also late period nnck/cul de sac/noise noodling Fahey kinda means we can justify about anything tbh :)

that is ilx user n/a on guitar noodles

i'm into it

Good noodling!

Yeah this is cool! Nice work LL.

new chuck johnson is super dope

Argh, I forgot I need to pick that up!

Also just put on LL's set. Excited to listen :)

seconding this- just ordered the LP

parts of chuck johnson really remind me of william tyler's recent stuff

Hey, my Glenn Jones preorder just shipped!

Oh really? Did not know there was a pre-order. Nice!

Yeah! Here you go: http://www.thrilljockey.com/products/fleeting

May try to hold out and buy from Glenn directly, but we will see. May not be able to wait!

xp - thanks for listening! more shows more shows more shows.

Got blazed and listened to Avocet tonight. Nice record, though I'm not sure I love it as much as you guys (yet?). I realize I'm probably not as intimately familiar with Jansch's solo career as some of you, but this one definitely feels like an anomaly to me, what with the chorus effects on the guitar and that one (vibe-destroying) solo piano track (I also could have done without the flutes, but that's a personal bias!). It's a record I will definitely be going back to, as there are some really nice tunes (the aforementioned "Kingfisher," "Kittiwake") and some little corners my ears need to further explore; you'll notice upthread I wasn't immediately sold on Gimmer, either, and now I'm playing it every day. This one feels like a grower, too.

ryley walker and william tyler (and sarah lipstate and dylan carlson and others) playing at the cloisters which is a ludicrously beautiful building.

anyone familiar with the other players? it sounds like they are at least going for a very inclusive program

"Into the Earth" is v nice.

Had the pleasure to talk to Rick and Che from 75 Dollar Bill while they were in Europe last week, told me they finished a new record on Thin wrist with extended band, which should be out before summer. > https://www.mixcloud.com/Sterrenplaten/sterrenplaten-04-maart-2016-75-dollar-bill/

Playlist obv seriously ILM inspired: Gunn/Truscinski and other time travel/outernational stuff

really loved the wooden Bag EP, will want to hear that.

anyone see this?

Joan Shelley & Nathan Salsburg are playing half hour up the road this coming Wednesday, and I can't go. Ffs.

cancel yr plans! cancel everything!

Unless I can smuggle my 7&10 year olds in, I'm screwed. Perhaps I could get one to sit on the shoulders of the other and put them in a big overcoat...

haha, yeah, that'd be tough ...
this was the front row when they played my place last december, though

'THE RECORD STORE OF THE MIND' SPOTIFY PLAYLIST
https://player.spotify.com/user/tompkinssquare/playlist/6MNJ5c9qZb0ScEOcsQtXA5

"Josh Rosenthal is a record man's record man. He is also a musician's record man. He is in the line of Samuel Charters and Harry Smith. In this age where we have access to everything and know the value of nothing, musicians need people like Josh to hear them when no one else can."
- T Bone Burnett

Grammy-nominated producer and Tompkins Square label founder Josh Rosenthal presents his first book, The Record Store of the Mind. Part memoir, part "music criticism," the author ruminates over unsung musical heroes, reflects on thirty years of toil and fandom in the music business, and shamelessly lists some of the LPs in his record collection. Crackling with insightful untold stories, The Record Store of the Mind will surely delight and inspire passionate music lovers ... especially those who have spent way too many hours in record stores.

Celebrating ten years in 2015, Rosenthal's San Francisco-based independent record label Tompkins Square has received seven Grammy nominations and wide acclaim for its diverse catalog of new and archival recordings.
