"Wherever I go people start talking about me, saying that my legs and hands can fetch a fortune in Tanzania," --Mary Owido, Nairobi, Kenya The belief that albino body parts hold magical powers and can confer longevity has been long held in East Africa. Albinos are feared by some in this region as "ghosts from Europe" or as embodiments of evil spirits. These outcasts were ripe for exploitation by Tanzanian witch doctors who decided to embark "on an exciting new marketing exercise" beginning in 2007, capitalizing on both widely held bigotry and [...]
" Title in Limbo is an album by The Residents in collaboration with Renaldo and the Loaf, released in 1983 on Ralph Records. Guest performers include Snakefinger (guitar and violin), and vocalist Nessie Lessons. The album was originally recorded during four days in 1981, when Renaldo and The Loaf were on vacation in San Francisco, but they were unable to finish the album before the duo went home. In 1983, during a time of financial crisis in the Residents' quarters, the half-finished album, with its gentle, tuneful sound, seemed like a financial lifeline, so the Residents decided to put [...]
After a nice dinner last night at the new Michaelangelo's location in Silver Lake last night, I realized that I didn't have enough time to compile a mix tape and put together the White Hills review. White Hills gets preferential treatment over mix tapes, so that's why I'm posting the mix now, on Monday. I hope you won't mind the tardiness, I think this one's pretty far out there... RULES for uninitiated noobs : With roughly 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods or [...]
It is hard to believe that there is a tribute album to The Residents that does not suck, but it exists: Eyesore: A Stab At The Residents was released in 1996 on Vaccination Records, and I think it is better than about 90% of the original Residents releases. (I never thought I'd say that about an album that has Primus on it.) Like so many great albums, it seems to be out of print, so here it is for your listening pleasure in digital form.

Twenty earthy and nutritious MP3s after the jump. Inspired by Lukas' post of the Ralph Records Goobers album last week, here's a companion album: Potatoes, an out-of-print collection of folk songs that was released on vinyl in 1987 and on CD in 1989 with a slightly different lineup. Here's the complete collection of material from the CD version (including folk songs by Reverend Howard Finster, Mark Mothersbaugh, Half Japanese, Bongwater, The Tinklers, The Residents, Snakefinger, and Negativland), along with a couple bonus Potatoes tracks sliced from my vinyl version [...]

Sunday Mix Tape Number 210
Today I actually had the displeasure of hearing the most-recent Arcade Fire album for the first time. It was forced on me at work. And here are the tweets I tweeted as I listened to it: - "Forced to listen to the new Arcade Fire record at work. Sucks. Springsteen meets the Cars? I thought these losers were supposed to be good." - "Just because you date your bandmate doesn't mean you should let her sing on your album. @arcadefire #suburbs #thisalbumsucks." - "This one sounds like a sped-up version of Bowie's 'Slip Away' [...]

The Best Of Sunday Mix Tapes: Volumes 102 – 150
This week I have been taking a stroll down memory lane, recapping some of my most successful Sunday Mix Tapes. The next new one will be number 200, you know. I'm sure I'm not alone when I say that this is a very exciting time for us all. Although I must say, if I'm still doing this after 200 more mix tapes I might have to consider making some big changes in my life. After mix tape number 100 I decided to make a change. It was January 14th, 2008 when I unilaterally (is that what you'd call [...]

Sunday Mix Tape - Number 134
I remembered to bring my computer home from work this week, so I can actually post the mix tape I intended to post last week. It's always fun looking through my record collection and hard drive for weird covers, so hopefully you won't be disappointed by the selection this week. One or two of these might have been posted before (I know for a fact Seaweed covering Jonathan Richman was shared on the Sub Pop Peel Sessions post), but most of these should be baby-spankin' new. Calexico covers Nick Drake, then Nick Drake turns around and covers...ugh...Bob Dylan. [...]

SUNDAY MIX TAPE - NUMBER 113
What a long fucking day. All I wanted to do was stay in bed, but I had to go to work. Then I had to stay until closing even though it wasn't scheduled. I went out with the boys for a couple beers and a couple shots last night, and went home shortly after midnight because I had to be awake and able-bodied for work. When I got home at 7:30 this evening, I learned that they were still drinking. An incredible marathon of booze that surprised even me. I can't imagine how dead everyone is going to [...]
