Dat Record Store Day tegenwoordig vooral een door de grote platenlabels gedomineerde commerciële gebeurtenis is, zal niemand ontgaan zijn. De zogenaamde exclusieve uitgaven van platen die iedere muziekliefhebber allang heeft, zijn vaak alleen interessant voor oude mannen met linnen tassen die hun Beatles collectie graag compleet willen houden, of voor snelle ratten die hetzelfde spul even later aan al wat verder gedementeerde oude mannen via Ebay verkopen. Ik heb zodoende een gloeiende hekel gekregen aan het fenomeen, doch ik moet bekennen dat één "speciale" release afgelopen zaterdag zonder meer mijn aandacht trok. [...]

Gunn-Truscinski Duo – Ocean Parkway

Gunn-Truscinski Duo – Ocean Parkway In plaats van rustig aan te kloppen trap ik vandaag gelijk de deur in: Ocean Parkway is mijn favoriete album van dit moment. Het beste van American Primitivism , blues, ragas, improvisatie en expressief percussiewerk worden op dit tweede album van het duo Steve Gunn en John Truscinski verzameld. Zo, bent u meteen klaar met lezen. Steve Gunn zou gekwalificeerd kunnen worden als een gitarist die het typische geluid van John Fahey najaagt, maar dat zou hem te kort doen. Hij kan zich qua fingerpicking meten met de oude meester, [...]

Portraits: Meg Baird

Meg Baird is a singer-songwriter who first rose to prominence as part of storied psych-folk outfit Espers, a Philadelphia collective whose three full-lengths crystallized the sound of the more somber and sonically kaleidoscopic elements of the mid-aughts "Freak Folk" scene. Between Espers' second and third records, Baird released Dear Companion , an understated but deeply affecting solo record consisting primarily of covers and traditional songs. Those who fell immediately under Meg's spell had to wait an excruciating four years for the follow-up, Seasons on Earth , which arrived on Drag City [...]

Song des Tages: Gunn/Truscinski Duo – Taksim II

Song des Tages: Gunn/Truscinski Duo – Taksim II Das magistrale Zusammenspiel von Steve Gunn und John Truscinski macht eine schlichte Platte zum wertvollen Schmuckstück. Ende letzten Jahres tat's der Ausnahme-Gitarrero Steve Gunn noch alleine , nun spielt er sich in Begleitung zurück in Trance und ins geneigte Ohr. Seit sechs Jahren schon verlieren sich er und Drummer John Truscinski regelmässig in ragaesken Improvisationsmeditationen, zuletzt auch in Gunns Band GHQ. Als Duo mussten sie jedoch erst vom famosen ExperimentalFolk-Label Three Lobed Recordings ins Studio gezerrt werden, damit nach elektrisierender Reaktion die Chemie ihres Zusammenspiels endlich [...]

Recommended Tuesday Show: CMJ Day #1

Recommended Tuesday Show: CMJ Day #1 Welcome to day number one of CMJ. There's obviously a lot of music going on this week, and if you do a bit of planning ahead, it will be quite good. While I feel that the quality of this year's bands is a little bit thinner than in year's past (more due to lack of breadth than depth, maybe because CMJ's controversial #Offline Fest has corralled a very good sampling of who's in town into something separate, and maybe because I'm used to SXSW's complete dominance of the entire scope of music trends), if you spend a little big of [...]

steve gunn: boerum palace (three lobed)

steve gunn: boerum palace (three lobed) aaah perfect for easing m'self into the weekend. but. almost. well. this kindof virtuosity on occasion gets my goat, my blood boiling, my back up. sweet lord i'm so jealous of these fuckerses digital dexterity that (oh god…) sometimes, sometimes i dream of smashing up richard bishops fingers with a sockfulla rocks. there goddammit i've said it. watching those nimble fingers flickering so effortlessly along frets, flitting giddy across strings sometimes fills me with near apoplectic jealous rage. seems unnatural, the blurred contorting finger strewn legerdemain of it.

neue töne (732): steve gunn

neue töne (732): steve gunn zunächst das aktuelle, auf three lobed recordings erschien ende 2009, genauer: am 17. november, das jüngste album von steve gunn "boerum palace". es ist sein bisher zweites full length und sein erstes, das als vinyl auf den markt kommt. wollte man eine einordnung wagen, nämlich gunn in die reihe aktueller gitarristen unterzubringen, müsste man ihm einen der vorderen plätze gewähren. ohne dabei großzügig zu sein. seine strahlkraftspielweise, seine prätentionsfreie gangart, dieses geradlinige, unverblümte, zugleich effektive und effekthascherei freie sind unglaublich. traditionelle amerikanische songstrukturen werden dabei beispielsweise sorgsam mit ragaeinflüssen durchsetzt. das hippt und treibt voran. lediglich [...]

Neue Mantras von Gitarren-Guru Steve Gunn

Steve Gunn ist einer jener unzähligen Musiker, die ihr Instrument besser beherrschen als so mancher hippe Durchstarter und doch im Untergrund versteckt bleiben. Eine irgendwie traurige Tatsache, die auch sein neustes Solo-Werk (zum Glück) bestätigt. Zumindest Insiderkreisen ist der in Philadelphia geborene

Steve Gunn

Steve Gunn A much needed reissue of Gunn's solo CD from Onomato popping up on Abandon Ship. If you're a fan of Steve's work in GHQ then this isn't too far off the mark, though much more acoustic than his work with them. Seated in a stark haze of plucked ambience and swirling with a touch of foreign soil, the disc burns with the heat of the mid-afternoon sun; rightly so, as the recordings were inspired by Gunn's travel's in Morocco. A sense of displacement echoes through Gunn's playing; a feeling of being lost and at the same time serene in losing [...]

Back Porch Summer Breeze

Back Porch Summer Breeze Photo: Cover art from self titled Jack Rose LP. Jack Rose, (lap steel) guitarist and master of blues and folk, is always likely to receive plenty of airplay at my place around this time of the year. His fingerpicking and slide instrumentals being the perfect accompaniment for these early summer days. On his latest album Dr Ragtime & Pals he finds himself accompanied by fellow musicians Glenn Jones, Micah Blue Smaldone (also featured on this playlist with a solo track), Mike Gangloff, Sean Bowles and Harmonica Dan. Their addition of harmonica, banjo and washboard add [...]
