Here's another old college radio show I uploaded to MixCloud. From February 1989, this is the earliest surviving tape that I have. Unfortunately, I lost lost a lot of tapes when my car got broken into outside the old 9:30 Club in D.C. many years ago. This show features The Stump Wizards, Buzzcocks, Camper Van Beethoven, Half Japanese, The Chills, XTC, Elvis Costello, Iggy and the Stooges, The Divine Horsemen, Giant Sand, Chris McGregor, Tom Waits and others.

Younger Tom by Henry Diltz Where did THIS come from? Seemingly out of nowhere, until I saw it mentioned by the Eyeball Kid .]]> text/html 2013-05-29T13:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4976156/tom-jones-spirit-in-the-room/
I really wanted to hate this album, or at least feel indifferent enough to ignore it. I tried, really I did. I didn't even listen to the unrequested advance promo I received. When a second promo arrived from Jones' record ... Continue reading ’]]> text/html 2013-05-27T10:58:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4972101/mount-kimbie-cold-spring-fault-less-youth/

It has been a very weird, very long, and very frustrating week. It was marked with a couple refreshing, lovely moments, but other than that it's been long hours at work and even longer hours stuck in the dark recesses of my mind. I drank a lot, too. It didn't help. Hey, here's a new [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-24T23:25:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4969798/rock-it-out-blog-how-old-is-too-old-to/
Can a band ever be too old to rock? Domusicians ever reach a point where they have to hang up their guitar and walk away? That's the focus of today's Rock it Out! Blog , as Sami ponders at what point an artist should call it quits. Is there a specific age all bands/singers should give up the limelight, or can they rock out into their twilight years as long as they've still got "it"? And does their motivation (e.g. paycheck vs. passion) ever play a deciding factor?Leave your comments down below.

La motivazione alla base di questo inutile post 'conosco un tizio che mangia esclusivamente pizza'. Non so perch mi sia venuto di scrivere sta cosa, mi sta pure poco simpatico alle volte. Purtroppo non c' nessuna memorabile storia da raccontare al riguardo. Per oh, c' sempre un buon topic (una buona scusa, che suona molto meglio) per mettere una canzone dei Tigers Jaw. 1) Tigers Jaw - Buona Pizza Everybody thinks were really growing up, its in our heads.

Tom Waits toca con The Rolling Stones en directo La ltima vez que Tom Waits y The Rolling Stones estuvieron juntos en el escenario fue en 1987, cuando ambos artistas interpretaron " Harlem Shuffle " del disco Dirty Work de 1986. Desde entonces, la legendaria banda y Waits no han colaborado juntos, solamente Keith Richards y Tom lo han hecho en varias ocasiones, la ms reciente fue cuando grabaron " Shenandoah " una balada clsica de piratas para [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-06T19:04:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4934955/tom-waits-regresa-a-los-escenarios-para-presentarse-al-lado/

I'm not sure what, exactly, people are expecting when they shell out to see the Rolling Stones arena-tour extravaganza, but they probably aren't counting on appearances from voice-ravaged weirdo hero Tom Waits, even if he has recorded a bunch of stuff with Keith Richards over the years. Last night, however, Waits joined the Stones onstage at Oakland's Oracle Arena, beautifully growling his way through "Little Red Rooster," a blues standard most associated with Howlin' Wolf but covered by a bazillion others. The crowd, bless their hearts, appeared to recognize the man. Watch a fan-made video below. Read More...

Tom Waits w/ The Rolling Stones (via Rolling Stones Facebook ) The Rolling Stones are currently on a North American tour which brought them to Oakland last night (5/5) for a show at Oracle Arena. They played a bunch of the usual favorites like "Tumbling Dice," "Get Off of My Cloud," "Miss You," "Jumpin' Jack Flash," and so on. But most excitingly, on their version of the blues staple "Little Red Rooster," they brought out another blues-lover, Tom Waits , to help them perform [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-02T17:15:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4928403/tom-waits-bob-dylans-theme-time-radio-hour-spoken/
For fellow Tom Waits freaks, the pairing of Waits guesting on Bob Dylans Theme Time Radio Hour is something like manna. The following five tracks find Waits calling in to Dylans show, commenting on various subjects, reveling in the everyday bizarre. Fantastic.

Or at least tangentially about food. And like all good lists this one goes, in alphabetical order, to 11. The Band - "Home Cookin'" from A Musical History. A 1976 outtake, this isRick Danko near his vulnerable best. Carolyn Mark & the New Best Friends - "Yanksgiving" from The Pros and Cons of Collaboration. Cooking to this song is tons of fun, but also guaranteed to make you wish that you were at Carolyn Mark's party instead.

Not much is left to say about Colin Stetson , but if you haven't gotten caught up yet, here's a brief rundown: Colin Stetson is a musician on a whole new level for musicians. He plays saxophone (and pretty much everything else with a reed) like a professional athlete, wrestling, pushing, and generally torturing his instrument, utilizing a technique called circular breathing to play for, sometimes, 15 goddamn minutes straight! Wikipedia has generously compiled a list of artists he's recorded and performed with, and it's even larger than I recalled: [...]]]>
