    Cure For The Blues (His most well known CD)Knobby is a local legend where I live and he has the chops. It's a cryin' shame he can't make his night job pay. But I guess that is the blues and if you don't have'um you can't sing'um. He alternates between three different guitars in a power trio and he commands that phat sound. Catch him if you can, definitely worthy.

    “This odd museum merely documents, juxtaposes, relativizes – a perverse collection.”– James Clifford, “On Ethnographic Surrealism” In the Unofficial Channels column of the February issue of The Wire, I write about Flokimotheque, a YouTube playlist that revives the perverse poetics of ethnographic surrealism. The playlist contains more than 100 posts that each juxtapose a single still image with a single piece of music. Check it out to see how prolonged immersion in such a seemingly prosaic process can reconfigure the senses and send ripples across the surface of the Real." - Tony Herrington (re-posted with kind permission of the author, Editor-in-Chief and Publisher for The Wire Magazine). http://www.thewire.co.uk/ http://www.thewire.co.uk/themire/ Flokimotheque - http://www.youtube.com/user/florencelucas/videos a fantastic little collection, containing everything from Nino Rota to Arne Nordheim, Vladimir Cosma to Mayo Thompson, Patty Waters to Rhys Chatham, music from Indonesia, Ennio Morricone, The Bug to Carla Bley, music from the Baka Forest People, Cabaret Voltaire to The Laneville-Johnson Union Brass Band. one a day for 100 days and rising. treat yourself to a few minutes of the sidereal.

    listening to the first half of the bonus disc from 3/22/72 included w/ the Reinhalle purchase (and will no doubt be glued to the second half tomorrow), I would like to make an obnoxiously obsessed request for this run to be released in its entirety. Please.

John Mayer's new album - "Paradise Valley". Listening to it for the first time. It's not his best work (that would be either "Continuum" or "Try!", IMO), but it's far from being his worst. EDIT: After listening to a bunch of live Dead shows lately, this album seems downright short! Anyway.... Moving on to Blues Traveler's "Save His Soul", and then I see Yes's "Close to the Edge" album coming up on my playlist, followed by a virginal listening of the GD's "So Many Roads 1965-1995"

A rather good friend of mine is moving to London for the next 2 years for her Master's Degree, so I'll be listening to the Dandy Warhols today in her honor. Over the years, she and I have traded artists back and forth, but she has never taken an appreciation of any kind for Courtney Taylor-Taylor & Co. She apparently listened to one song, thought it was a rip off of "Brown Sugar," and has refused to listen to any other song the band has performed. And I continue to this very day to tell her she's horridly wrong about the band and is a fool to judge them based on one song. I mean, let's face it, if we all refused to listen to a rock band because they sounded like the 'Stones...we wouldn't listen to just about anything!

cleaning house, found the tape James Olness made me all those years ago. It starts with Banks of the Ohio from Joan Baez's set. At the time, Joan had rather worn out her welcome opening every show on the run (let's just say a lot of us were tired of Children of the '80s...), but this one song was really lovely and the chemistry's great. So I asked James to include just that one on the tape. It was a really good show, maybe my favorite NYE. And now, the sort of Shakedown that tells you you're in for a great show.

I love David Bowie. And I mean LOVE. He's been among my all-time favorite artists since I was in high school, and I've owned in one way, shape, or form a rather extensive library of his work. So, needless to say, I was pretty excited when I heard about his new album, "The Next Day." I'm listening to the new album for either the second or third time now, and I just can't get into it. I'm not really sure what it is, but the songs feel very phoned-in. Maybe it's because he's been in semi-retirement for so long after his last tour, but I feel like Bowie's lost it, whatever "it" is. Now, don't mistake this as me saying the album's terrible; it's still a good album. It just doesn't blow me away the way his other albums have.

Bit the bullet the other week and ordered the box set. I'm listening to the shows in (chrono)logical order, and each set is pure gold. Currently listening to May 15th in St. Louis, which, so far, might be the weakest show of the box (?), but it picks up quite a bit once you hit disc 3. Personally, I thought "Estimated" was kinda weak, but that 18-plus minute "Dancing" was rather wild!

Because I just received the CD and BR set in the mail yesterday. I've listened to the regular soundboard countless times, but the improvement is remarkable. WOW. Great job. (Unfortunately, the sound on the Blu-ray is not great. The 5.1 mix is missing low end -- almost nothing comes out of the subwoofer!)

Listening to Dinosaur Jr.'s debut, self-titled record (or was self-titled before they added the "Jr." to their name), which is pretty good. I'm more familiar with their reunion material, "Beyond," "Farm," and "I Bet on Sky," which are all pretty amazing records. "Dinosaur" is a little slower and a good bit more lo-fi, which I kinda like. J doesn't do the killer guitar soloes like he does on the band's later records, though, but then again this is 1985.... The LP is gone now, but if you're a fan of Dinosaur Jr., check out their live album "Chocomel Daze," which was recorded in '87. A number of their songs from "Dinosaur" are on that record but are a good bit faster, heavier, and just downright better. You can get it on iTunes, Amazon, or directly from Merge Records in digital format (it comes with a digital booklet if you get it from Merge and at a better price than iTunes).

Not sure how many of you here are Pogues fans, but the band's long-time member Phil Chevron passed away yesterday morning after a long battle with cancer. My wife and I were lucky enough to catch them in Baltimore on their Parting Glass Tour, and it was an absolutely fantastic show. In spite of how much Shane has deteriorated over the years, the rest of the band was as spry as ever in spite of their age. And if you aren't sure as to which member of the band Phil is, he's the one who looks like a leprechaun.

Tom Waits's first record, which is a FAR cry from his work in the '80s and on. I find it funny how much the music of Waits parallels that of Capt. Beefheart, though without out all the whimsy and humor.

Not sure how many of us here on Dead.net are fans of the Legendary Pink Dots, but their "surprise album" that was released yesterday--The Curse of Marie Antoinette--is some of their finest work I've had the pleasure of listening to. I coughed up the big bucks and sprung for the limited-edition picture disc LP (1 of 299 copies pressed), which comes with a 6-track download of the album. Chances are the LPs are all sold out, but the download is still available on the band's Bandcamp page. I think what I like most about the LPDs is how they don't make music insofar as they make emotional soundscapes. I can only imagine how amazing a movie score would be if it were written and performed by the LPDs....
