What we’ve all been wasting for!!! And released in May, the best month! Anticipating.

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Friday, 28 February 2020 13:44 (four years ago) link

Just listened to a couple of Marisa Anderson records this weekend. I have no doubts this will be great, definitely looking forward to it (and would LOVE to see this live, hopefully we all get a chance at some point)

grandavis, Friday, 28 February 2020 13:57 (four years ago) link

so excited two of my fav musicians on the planet together

If anyone needs some listening today, the two tracks available for streaming here are really nice:

https://waterlesshills.bandcamp.com/album/the-great-mountain-lp

C Joynes on guitar and DBH on violin with a rhythm section. C Joynes is a great and tasteful player, but really delivers this for me is DBH's fiddle, really expressive and beautiful playing. I imagine that the whole record delivers (unfortunately sold out despite not even being officially "released" yet).

grandavis, Friday, 28 February 2020 15:38 (four years ago) link

oh wow cool combo, C Joynes is one of those players that probably doesn't get enough attention on the scene

Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 3 March 2020 15:25 (four years ago) link

yeah i'm digging waterless hills!
finally really got into that Matthew J Rolin record from late last year and it's very strong, too.

tylerw, Tuesday, 3 March 2020 16:09 (four years ago) link

has there been a proper DBH record lately?

Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 3 March 2020 16:15 (four years ago) link

i think the last one was Mass (2017-ish) ... but I could be wrong there.

tylerw, Tuesday, 3 March 2020 16:27 (four years ago) link

also — do we think "The Quickening" is a reference to Highlander or Art Bell? OR BOTH.

Chuck Johnson/Golden Retriever collab coming up on Thrill Jockey:

C Joynes is one of those players that probably doesn't get enough attention on the scene

Yes, i have always loved his stuff. He was doing this thing last year where he was re-upping old OOP releases of his to bandcamp for pay what you want. I followed along all year.

Similarly I have been thinking about Evan Miller recently—does anyone remember him? Before he did that more 'out' record in 2009 called Transfigurations On Lap-Steel Guitar, he had a couple tape only ones on Night People throughout 2007 and 2008, and it was all really good. I don't think he was ever included on those early Imaginational Anthem releases either, though the timing seems perfect for that to have happened.

He's also got this reworking of Furry Lewis' Turn Your Money Green on Beeswax Ephemera (2007) that feels pretty ahead of it's time looking back on it, with some blown out electric guitar soloing towards the end that fades out into some collage stuff. Some of his material is on youtube, but here's a blog post with mp3's for my fav Night People one, Three Spells For Six String Guitar:

Neal Cassady, Friday, 6 March 2020 17:14 (four years ago) link

Aw man, I guess those streamable mp3s for Three Spells For Six String Guitar are dead now. Anyway, I just spent this morning listening to all the stuff of his I've collected over the years so I'll just share my own link below—please enjoy, all of this has been out of print for a long time. I wonder what he has been up to recently.

Neal Cassady, Friday, 6 March 2020 21:05 (four years ago) link

I need to check that Evan Miller out. Sounds very much up my alley.

grandavis, Thursday, 12 March 2020 20:34 (four years ago) link

First track for this is now live:

https://marisaanderson.bandcamp.com/album/the-quickening

Really looking forward to listening to this record.

grandavis, Thursday, 12 March 2020 20:35 (four years ago) link

ooooooooh that track
so good!! his drumming is kinda busy but i like it

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Thursday, 12 March 2020 21:03 (four years ago) link

It's funny I wasn't expecting busy drumming either for some reason but it is cool!

grandavis, Thursday, 12 March 2020 21:27 (four years ago) link

i kinda was -- his playing with Xylouris is super busy! I like/feel his restlessness.

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Thursday, 12 March 2020 21:32 (four years ago) link

the Jim White/Nina Nastasia record is absolutely classic, he's pretty busy on that but it works

Nice series of improvs at sunrise and sunset by Toby Hay as part of "inhabiting our current moment in time / history":

Steve Palmer's on this thread, right? Because "Statesboro Day" is absolutely one of my favorite songs of the year. nice work!

alpine static, Tuesday, 7 April 2020 21:17 (four years ago) link

Is really cool to see Global/Steve's record get a lot of reviews and spins on radio shows. Well deserved, just a great record all around.

Rhizome in DC is doing a live-stream "show" consisting of sets from Rob Noyes and Eli Winter coming up soon. Not a bad way to spend a quarantine evening. Watching Rob do what he does is a treat, he is a very active player.

grandavis, Saturday, 18 April 2020 19:51 (four years ago) link

kendra amalie and oscar tengo (aka matt b) on may 4th too. excited to see it, i know matt has some tricks up his sleeve and he's been playing better than ever

global tetrahedron, Tuesday, 21 April 2020 14:39 (three years ago) link

oh, and thanks all, missed those comments above! glad people are enjoying it

global tetrahedron, Tuesday, 21 April 2020 14:42 (three years ago) link

Tim Stine Trio, Fresh Demons: acoustic guitar (TS), upright bass (Anton Hatwich), drum kit(Frank Rosaly), all tending to lower-range, earthy, perky sounds, very well recorded, reminding me of McLaughlin's Extrapolation minus the sax, which isn't missed. Well, maybe they could use a little more instigation: I started out indifferent to the soon-predictable approach--then got hooked midway, as details seemed to open up more, climbing and rolling, moment to moment. I think, especially now that I know this set gets better , that the prelims will grow on me. 37 minuted, 37 seconds seems right: it's tight.
Excerpts from press sheet:
Frank Rosaly...functions like a third melodic voice throughout the album, and takes every opportunity to add sounds and surprises to each track. Anton Hatwich works with and against Stine throughout the album, and adds to the overall feel of a chamber trio with each one improvising their own parts in real time.

Fresh Demons follows Knots (2019, Clean Feed) which enlisted Windy City peers Nick Mazzarella, Matt Ulery, and Quin Kirchner. In addition to leading his Trio and Quartet, Stine has played as a leader and sideman in the groups Loris, Stine/Roebke/Reed Trio, Jarod Bufe Quartet and Nick Mazzarella Quintet.

Out on Astral Spirits May 15. For more info, check with cody at clandestinelabelservices dot com.

a track from the Jim White/Marisa Anderson came up in my Spotify Discover yesterday, great stuff and sounds very different guitar-wise from her previous work, louder and more textural

epicenter of the fieri universe (sleeve), Wednesday, 29 April 2020 21:41 (three years ago) link

Yeah, looking fwd to that!
xpost Stine *might* be using a pick-up, unobtrusively. As I said, it's all very well-recorded, anyway.

dow, Wednesday, 29 April 2020 21:45 (three years ago) link

pal and collaborator matt b had a very enjoyable set through rhizome dc last night- saw a couple of you in there:
