they certainly are not. does jeff have a bandcamp set up? he may not own these either.

most of those CDs are on ebay though, I believe.

His Bandcamp only has a few later albums. The website offers ÇDs by email order. That may be the best option. I'd rather he earns a few dollars

six months pass...

The song One Sunday came on just now and it struck me suddenly how much it sounds like The Spinanes but with a male voice. At least on that song.

not sure if i said it already on the relevant thread but

year after year
is my favourite album to make love to. the sensual soothing baritone of the singer, the piercing beautiful melodies, and the general relaxedness and slowness of things make it the perfect companion to the "beast with two backs". and the length of the album is fine too, if you make it till the end, i think it is around 55 minutes it is just about a perfect "liebesspiel".

Du alter Verführer!

this song made a deep impression on me as an 18 year old stoner, and i still love this record quite a lot.

Noticed Hearts of Palm got reissued last year. Went right on my want list for sure.

Evan, Friday, 3 May 2019 18:42 (four years ago) link

yeah, it's a really nice pressing. Jeff said others will follow.

Managed to pick up The Lone Gunman. So far more of a stripped electronic sound and quiet vocals. Already like it

three years pass...

A documentary is coming together

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/janjensendavis/traces-of-glory-the-musical-journey-of-idaho

The filming's done, the idea here is to get sound mixing and promo help going. 70% funded with 18 days to go so hey, why not help a bit?

Whoa @ opening shot in the trailer. That's his house? What's he do for a living I wonder...

Evan, Monday, 19 September 2022 16:07 (one year ago) link

haha I know, no shit right? he has done a lot of corporate music scoring but I seem to also recall that jeff's family had money even back then. that might have just been a rumor though.

akm, Monday, 19 September 2022 17:24 (one year ago) link

It's all hearsay, but I vaguely knew one of Idaho's drummers back then and iirc Jeff had enough money that he could more or less work on Idaho full time.

Elvis Telecom, Tuesday, 20 September 2022 06:51 (one year ago) link

the interviewees in the trailer more or less say as much, don't they?

Paul Ponzi, Tuesday, 20 September 2022 10:22 (one year ago) link

I imagine Idaho's cost of living is pretty low.

one year passes...

And if you supported the Kickstarter they've released a link to screen it as you choose over the next two weeks. I'll check out here in the next couple of days and report.
