Web-a-thon, Slurpees, Sacred Mushrooms, Religion v. Science, Beer, Rabbit Killing, Psychic Powers, and Wonders Of The World Thank you John from Ohio! Thank you Tyler from California!

Skip James: 1931 Sessions (Mississippi Records)

Jul 2, 2008, 4:47pm Friction NYC
Listening to the eighteen surviving tracks from Skip James ' 1931 recording sessions in Grafton, Wisconsin give a sense of nostalgia. Clicks, hisses, and pops of muffled seventy-year old vinyl along with James' frail falsetto create an evocative, otherworldly atmosphere highlighted by his unique self-invented three-finger picking style. A mixture of delta and piedmont blues, James' music is haunting, desolate, and achingly beautiful - the world just kind of stops and floats every time I listen to it. Fortunately, the good people at Mississippi Records have taken their shot at reissuing twelve of James' [...]

washington phillips: what are they doing in heaven today?

Jun 25, 2008, 7:08pm cowsarejustfood
more crackly ancient beauty from mississippi records today, following yesterdays post on the magnificent skip james vinyl reissue. washington phillips was a preacher, instrumentalist and gospel singer. he did not die in an asylum in 1930. he probably did not play the bizzaro dolceola instrument that's often accredited to him. he did play more than likely some kind of [...]

Fever pitch Grab Bag

Jun 6, 2008, 9:12am For The Sake Of The Song
Fever pitch Grab Bag Welcome to Grab Bag, that weekly roundup of songs that got a lot of airplay here over the past week. And what have we got for you this fine Friday night? Tom Waits of course, as I´ve got my tix for his July concert in Barcelona, plus a great Waits cover by the one and only Lydia Lunch. Ole Hank gets some airplay again, just because he´s the undisputed number one in my all time top ten of country artists. Saint Nick makes an appearance with a ship song, while those brilliant freakfolkers called Tunng sing a song of the sea. [...]

2007 Year End Survey | Farm

Dec 17, 2007, 11:50pm False 45th
2007 Year End Survey | Farm 2007's Year End Survey has so far seen a video and a naked guy. We continue your sensory overload with a phone in response from St. Albans/Enosburg Falls stoner-blues rock trio Farm . When originally approached about the project, Ben Maddox stated that multi-instrumentalist Joshua Givens didn't have a computer, but he offered to transcribe it for the post (dedication!). We decided to get rid of the middle man and have them lay it down as an mp3. Seems like an appropriate medium given the whole idea behind False 45th. Farm put out an excellent [...]

Jesu @ Amoeba / Wolves In The Throne Room @ Relax Bar

Oct 6, 2007, 5:29pm Swan Fungus
Jesu @ Amoeba / Wolves In The Throne Room @ Relax Bar A jam packed Friday if ever there was one. I received an early morning phone call inviting me to Sherman Oaks to drive Lyz to the airport with her friend. I showered and dressed, and quickly realized I was out of one of my medications. Placed a call that I thought was reaching the Costco in Los Feliz, but it was actually the Burbank location. I tried in vain to get them to switch the order to Los Feliz, but it took them several hours to figure out how to take my refill out of their system and place it [...]

In with the Old: Skip James

Jun 1, 2007, 1:45pm Tunes Consumed: the Poutine Silver Platter
In with the Old: Skip James Now I can't keep you up to date with all sorts of new music. Hell, I don't think I even heard of Radiohead until the 10th grade. No, instead I'd like to bring you back, way back to the 1920's and the beginning of the music career of a truly great blues artist: Skip James. Inspired by his hard work in road construction, Levee building and bootleg whiskey, he would write simple beautiful songs, learn to play the piano and develop a three finger picking technique entirely his own. His high, slightly raspy voice, would waver slightly over [...]

Bottling Smoke Day 2 + Sunday Mix Tape #68

May 28, 2007, 2:59am Swan Fungus
Bottling Smoke Day 2 + Sunday Mix Tape #68 Bottling Smoke Day 2 was a lesson in unbelievable psychedelic soundscapes, free improvisation and avant-garde composition. My day began at roughly 2pm when I walked over to Echo Curio. I bumped into some people I had met the night before and we headed around back to the merchandise booths that were set up in the rear of the building. I purchased some CDs and CD-rs, then headed inside to catch New Fairfield Parks And Recreation and their melding of folky acoustic guitar with homemade signal processor glitch-work. The Alps (a Jefre Cantu project) did not perform, so the next act [...]
