Obskuradio: Strawbs – Witchwood

Jan 10, 2012, 1:00am »78s
Obskuradio: Strawbs – Witchwood Der Durchbruch gelang Strawbs erst als sie ihre besten Zeiten bereits hinter sich hatten. Ihr Frühwerk zählt zum Interessantesten, was der britische Progressive-Folk hervorgebracht hat. Kommerziell gesehen waren Strawbs Spätzünder. Als sie 1973 mit "Part Of The Union" die Spitze der britischen Single-Charts erreichten, hatte sich ihr Sound über sechs Alben hinweg merklich verändert. Unter dem Einfluss des Gitarristen Dave Lambert bekamen die Songs der Folk-Band um den Songwriter Dave Cousins eine rockige Note. Nach unzähligen Umbesetzungen sind Strawbs bis heute aktiv. Im letzten Jahr haben die Briten [...]

The Occupy America Mixtape

Nov 25, 2011, 3:59pm Obscure Sound
Protest movements often result in music that is repetitive and uninspiring, if only for the small number of widely identifiable protest songs. You shouldn't be forced to listen to "The Times They Are a-Changin'" twenty times per day. Levine, who worked at Zuccotti Park's info desk,compiles a dozen songs that better fit this movement, and many others as well

The Zombies announce 50th anniversary world tour

Aug 8, 2011, 3:02pm Consequence Of Sound
The Zombies announce 50th anniversary world tour With reunion fever hitting everyone from Buffalo Springfield to Archers of Loaf (and even The Beach Boys being in discussions to hop back on the board ), it's only fitting this nostalgia infection would hit English rockers The Zombies (zombies, infection; get it?) After dropping their latest album Breathe Out, Breathe In , their first since 2004, back in May, founding members Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone are celebrating their 50th anniversary as a unit with a huge tour that begins next month. Kicking off on September 9th in Rama, ON, [...]

Strawbs – Lay Down

Dec 28, 2010, 12:45am Fusion 45
Strawbs – Lay Down "I have no idea who they are," shrugged the blue-haired little old lady as I rummaged through the box of records she'd set out at the mobile home rec room rummage sale. Mantovani , Andre Kostelanetz , Percy Faith and... Strawb s? She professed to know of John Hartford , whose first album she also owned. Having listened to it, I find that somewhat more bizarre than her possession of a Strawbs record. I know Strawbs by chance. I inherited a handful of their records from a radio station that changed [...]

A Glimpse Of Heaven

Nov 10, 2010, 3:14pm Small Town Romance
A new album by composer and piano player Goldmund is always a thrilling discovery. The wonderful Western Vinyl label had released his new album Famous Places recently and I've taken the time to listen to it, because it deserves a full attention, as it can easily fall into the 'background music' niche. But Goldmund has such an [...]

John Hartford – John Hartford

Sep 10, 2010, 1:47pm Fusion 45
John Hartford – John Hartford Truth be told, the little blue-haired lady I mentioned a few days ago in my post about Strawbs had one up on me. She may not have known about Strawbs - who, according to White Ray at Echoes In The Wind , were said to be the British version of the Band - but she knew John Hartford and I really didn't. Oh, the shame. The short story on Hartford is that he came from a [...]

SUNDAY MIX TAPE - NUMBER 114

Oct 13, 2008, 12:17am Swan Fungus
SUNDAY MIX TAPE - NUMBER 114 Sunday, cruddy Sunday. Many of you have to return to work tomorrow. I'm sorry. Some of you worked all weekend like I did. I'm sorry. Some of you are out of work and don't even know what day of the week or month it is. Uh...I'd say I'm sorry, but I'm actually kind of jealous. Killdozer is playing here tonight. I've been counting down the days since I read about their mini US tour on the Electrical Audio forum. Hopefully they'll play a good set and fill me with great joy. Slower. Louder. Louder! Slower!

Webb Pierce, Sergio Mendes, Isley Brothers

Sep 30, 2008, 12:03pm Fusion 45
Webb Pierce, Sergio Mendes, Isley Brothers Along with my regular F45 features (Classic Recording Studios, Great Session Players, Sal's Boutique, Rock And Roll Hit & Lit), I'm going to drop in a few long-form mixes here and there. That's what I posted on F45 exclusively for the quite awhile, dating back to my debut in December 2006 (which you can still hear here ). It's been 6 months or so since I was last in the studio, so I'm a little rusty. The mixes aren't so tight and the flow is a little weird. But it's not bad. Hope [...]

The Distinguished Gourmand: The Apple Pan / Sprinkles Bakery

Jul 23, 2008, 11:59pm Swan Fungus
The Distinguished Gourmand: The Apple Pan / Sprinkles Bakery I told you all it would happen soon. Little did I know it would only take me one day to gather my wits and leave the house to purchase one of those wildly popular frosting shots I've been hearing about (since yesterday) from a posh Beverly Hills bakery. You know, the ones I might have possibly called "retarded"? Yeah, I got one. I originally planned my day around going to the Apple store, but I wound up going everywhere except the Apple store. So, sit right back and I'll regale you with a short story of [...]

On Fast Food

Jul 21, 2008, 11:00pm Swan Fungus
I promised myself last week that I was going to cut out fast food from my diet for the next 365 days. I arrived at the decision almost immediately following a delicious meal at Qdoba last week. Phoebe was there. I left the Mexican Grill feeling disappointed with myself for consuming a 1,000 calorie burrito, an order of chips with salsa, and two large sodas. I've only used my membership card eight times this year, which translates to a once-a-month savory splurge, but something about being that full of food which is so unhealthy made me [...]
