    Randall, by listening to - and, therefore, thinking about - the electronic music you've posted, I've developed a new appreciation for the artistic effort required to construct (I wanted to say "play", but these works seem more like sound-building projects - and I don't intend that pejoratively) and execute these pieces. For instance, after a couple passes at "Picture", I began to focus on that clever bridge from :30 to 1:15, which connects the intro and the diminishing metronomic pulse that follows. I love how it begins with a subtle acceleration of the baseline beat (this is just an attempt at a personal description of what I hear, as I have no technical vocabulary for this)...I can't recall any of your posts on the main boards; I'd love to know whether you find a common ground b/w this music and the Dead or if you like the latter for entirely independent reasons (or a bit of both!)./tua amica,k

Best known for their appearance in Magical Myster Tour, where they performed the song that inspired the band name, Death Cab For Cutie. "That night Cutie called a cab (mm-mm-hmm) Baby, don't do it!"

Rectrospective Here's a pleasant surprise. Sitting at my desk, I was handed a bubble-wrapped package by someone who saw it in my mailbox. Inside, an autographed copy of this CD, out of the blue from a co-worker in Maine. Finest kind! Well I hope you understand I just had to go back To the Island

Death Cab for Cutie appears on their first album 'Gorilla', but I would I recommend the excellent 'Dog's Life' set of all the band's albums, available on Amazon for as little as $11.90. The Bonzos used to be the house band on a very anarchic children's TV show in the UK in the late 60s called 'Do Not Adjust Your Set'. This bunch of spaced out lunatics had a profound effect on the young badger. Neil Innes of course went on to become a celebrated Python (most of the Pythons appeared on DNAYS). Viv Stanshall is a lost and still much lamented genius.

Patricia Ry Cooder and Manuel Galban - late 50's Cuban fused with American pop. Mostly recorded at Egrem Studios, Habana, Cuba, 2002. This isn't going away. Manuel Galban has a new - one minus the Cooder influence - that is very tasty. He finished it shortly before passing at age 80. - Mas quajiro que la palma.

Yesterday it was 'Zeppelin's "IV" and "Physical Graffiti" followed by the 'Stones with "Let It Bleed," "Sticky Fingers," "Exile on Main Street," and "Black and Blue." What can I say? I was having...one of "those" days. Today, I'm in the mood for a little old-school hardcore: Scream's "Still Screaming & This Side Up" and Social Distortion's "Live at the Roxy." Y'know, as great a live act as Social D is, they don't stray much from the Roxy format when playing live. I saw them a year or so ago, and, aside from songs from the new album, they played that live album like it was their set list. Not that I'm complaining; it's a GREAT live album.

SiriusXM is playing a Rob Bertrando audience recording from 2/27/77: very good quality! Wonder if there's a soundboard in the vault? Nice Minglewood leads it off.

And nothing but, right now. Nice box. This era is a bit out of my comfort zone, but I'm enjoying the ride so far. But I'm posting mostly to try out the new format...

Oh, my goodness, what an amazing concert! I pre-ordered my copy almost as soon as I got the e-mail from the ZFT, and I was NOT disappointed. Not one bit! The Persuasions had an excellent opening performance for the 7:30pm show, and the Mothers utterly blew the roof off Carnegie Hall. I wish this album/record had been up for a Grammy earlier this year, 'cause it more than deserved to "bring home the gold." All you Zappa faithfuls out there, if you don't own this brilliant piece of Mothers history, buy it as soon as humanly possible! Also, has anyone picked up any of the recent Mothers/Zappa remasters? I've been trying to collect the old LPs, but almost the entire catalog is available on iTunes, and I'm kinda done with CDs (except for special releases like Dave's Picks).

Time Fades Away Actually, listened to it last night, on vinyl, since vinyl is all I have. Part of the frustration of being a Neil Young fan is that he refuses to re-release this album (there are many more parts, but this will suffice for today), one of my 6 or so favorite Neil albums. Has never been on CD. C'mon, Neil, I know you hate it, but jeez.. The avant nurses homoto? Happy Friday!

Been going back through all of Dave's Picks so far this year and marvelling at their seemless beauty. Now I'm anxious for the release of "Spring 1990: So Glad You Made It." And finding it harder and harder to resist that "Spring 1990" box set....

I have been listening to nothing but these shows, in order, for almost 2 weeks now. Absolutely blistering! The box is THE box that all future box sets will be measured against, but the music alone is awesome!
