    Recent and still waiting

    I’ve been listening to Ozric Tentacles quite a lot. I think I missed them because they appeared in 1983 just as we bought a house and so didn’t have any cash because the mortgage was around 50% of our income.
    Currently I’m streaming some acts from Glastonbury. The Kim Gordon set is fantastic and I also enjoyed Confidence Man. Still got more to watch.
    I have a backlog of CDs to play like Mars Hotel, Garcialive 21 the latest Joni Mitchell reissue box and at least 10 others. Hope to catch up one day.

    Hey rockers & happy Monday!!!

    Even as we speak, as I continue my deep dive into late 1972, I am listening to 10/17/72. Very fine indeed, I shall enjoy it!!!

    So, today is the day TPTB announce the 1970 Fillmore West box, right????

    Every once in a while, it seems like the cosmos part, and something great plops into your lap.....

    I don't think I know better than what the cosmos has in store for me......

    Colin - excellent, thanks for letting me know. I was watching that dvd last night, and I feel the same way. Mind melting music, but terrible picture. The extras are a bit better - the ones from Glastonbury ( shame they aren't on tonight) and Reading have the best picture, and the guitar playing at Reading is stratospheric.

    These two box sets you have are considered to feature the most effective Ozric Tentacles music. There is an earlier one called "Vitamin Enhanced" - I missed out on the remastered version in the same style as the two you have - but the earlier one, on the Madfish label is okay - and has a great booklet. It's more formative, though. Quite a few tracks featuring Ed Wynne on his own. If you were just to get one, I'd go for "There Is Nothing". "Live Ethereal Cereal" features some thunderous live tracks from the mid 80's, but the sound quality is a bit poorer than the others.

    I discovered them through the Dead fanzine "Spiral Light" - must have been about 1990. They were amazing live, as you can probably imagine!

    Thanks to Dave Rock for the recommendation. I’ve streamed several albums over the past few days and none have been less than excellent. I thought that since I’d played so much where the band wouldn’t see a lot of cash I should buy some. I’m playing ‘Travelling the great circle’ at the moment. The DVD that’s included has some fantastic music on it., although the visuals are, almost, unwatchable given the level of flickering in the image. My wife certainly couldn’t watch as she can have migraines triggered by flashing lights. She loves the music as well.
    I ordered another box set ‘Trees of Eternity’ and expect that to be delivered later today. Highly recommended.

"RIGHT NOW" I am listening to a conference call drone on about the details of a database upgrade for work. If it ever ends, I do have 6/20/86 (Greek Theatre) queued up to check out. Peace, -Dave
