What Are You Listening to? 2020

joy division - unknown pleasures
sonic youth - bad moon rising
minutemen - double nickels on the dime
led zeppelin - in through the out door

Electro Band featuring Arthur Baker. I think I picked this up really cheap from a sale in a local chain record shop several years ago.
Has some interesting bits on it including a cover of gary Glitter's I Didn't Know I Loved You .
& some emlodies and thgings.
I think it overstays its welcome quite a bit may be down to bonus material on the cd. BUt may just lose steam on the 2nd side.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/f0a9d01ddb1e6c0282092fbaf9f35f7c/7222638
Quite groovy 1971 guitar jazz lp.
I think I still need to pick up the resdt of his material from aroun dthis era.
Used to have Spaces on vinyl years ago.
Do have teh 2 free Spirits set.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/76db382a9bd43e8607c0d0ef479f82e4/1439801
first disc of this which is the s./t lp and a set called Sessions .
First lp is pretty sublime. Weird hearing how mellifluous a voice that deep can get.
Mix of folk, blues , jazz etc. & a backing band including a couple of Mothers and several other people probably better know nfor later work.
LOve that first lp anyway, somewhat forward looking for 1965

^ Nice jazz picks--Intakt has maybe become my fave contemporary jazz label
(or at least the one w/ the highest batting average of intrigue whenever I see what's upcoming from them)

Looks like discogs image urls are no longer good to post here

ah thanks, I got an error on the Sun Ra listening thread and was wondering about that

actually, my browser settings are preventing crossloading content from different domains by default.

oh ok gotcha, I think it was b/c I was logged out at the time.

sorry for the spam here, but it was Privacy Badger, moved discogs to allow downloading content and the images appeared. carry on!

xp rushomancy: The most fun Chicago street name to guess you once lived on in terms of how Grubbs sings them IMO would be
"DREXXXXXELLLLLL"

(^ also, that Lula Cortes is great)

Been listening to a lot of XCX leading up to her new album coming out
Watching her P4K set led me to then rinse this song of hers

I'm getting more and more into Sidney Bechet and other like music of the era. Would love some recommendations.

was just arguing w/ my 5yo boy bout whether lego ninjago gigurines wear gloves or have black hands
"keep your black hands out of my mouth"
best hnia for me love it

Ha!
"In Every Ford" was the first HNIA I heard, since it actually got a bit of airplay/playlisting on CFNY, the commercial alternative radio station here in Toronto, back in '93--I still have my cassette of it taped off the radio somewhere

Just listened to the new Oranssi Pazuzu earlier and now Kairon; IRSE! Ruination

Finnish hard rock from 1973 with a really piercing guitar tone.
Pretty fantastic.
NOt sure what has picked up directly from this. Think it could be a handy influence.
Hadn't listened to this in way too long. Rockadrome reissued this about 7 years ago and i had bee hoping to get a copy for a while before taht.One of several great semi obscure hard rock/heavy lps from taht era that are pretty necessary.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/7ef5f4a9648c09062c5f23184369a2f9/2318060
Gal Costa's 3rd solo lp , not as out as the previous one Gal but pretty cool. Starts off pretty hard hitting goes a few other places including a cover of Caetano veloso's london , London recorded in solidarity with him being in exile at teh time.
I think Gal had a run of pretty great lps including the 2 before thas and the next couple including a live lp from late 71.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/9da4338297e28ad9539bc4aeee9c9fea/8157207
Various artists cover Nick cave and a couple of songs he covered that he did rathe individual versions of.
Some good stuff here and i think it hangs together as a compilation ok

i love that Icecross record so much.
