I liked it a bit better this time, but still not wowed. I'll give it another few listens before giving up on it, though.

He just posted on his (personal) Facebook page: "I got a cool email last night from Sonic Youth guitarist/co-founder Lee Ranaldo. He said he's loving his Earth Drive pedal and needs another... " too fucking cool.

Take it up with Tim.

If you know how to employ them, I'm sure it would be enough. If you're interested, that is.

The latter, really. But see what Draper said.

No. Didn't even see that. I'll have to see just how much they want for that. (Probably too much.)

Tim (band songwriter/leader) is principled to the point of dogmatic and he has a very definite idea in his head as to what "psychedelic" means. He wants you to be able to improvise, and also to have a pretty extensive pedal board (and complete mastery of said board). It's all about chemistry and being on the same page. And rebilac: oops.

100% agree! Probably my most-anticipated at this point.

My friend Tim is the leader of a psychedelic band here in Chicago called The Red Plastic Buddha. A damn good modern psych band that's just finishing recording their 3rd album, but are loosing their lead guitar player and need somebody to take his place. reference points: Syd Barrett/Pink Floyd Roky Erickson/13th Floor Elevators The Luck of Eden Hall I am not in this band and not associated with them (anymore -- I was an original member), but I am still friends with the guys in the band and want to help them out. They are a helluva lot of fun to play with and there is tons of room for imp

Second listen to this bad boy and I think that it has a shot at my top 5 of '13. Always loved the Auteurs and am ashamed that I've never investigated anything by Black Box Recorder (I really should) or any of his other solo work (ditto). Seriously, how awesome is this, even in concept?

Now, I've never actually owned one of these, but they are built and sold by a friend of mine. And I believe that Nels uses one--the the rest of his client list is equally impressive. Not sure what your budget is, but might be worth a shot. He's a great guy and I know that he knows his shit. $185 http://www.sarnomusicsolutions.com/products/ed.html

What else am I going to start the day with?

thanks for the chuckle.

That's because once you start the album, it is damn near impossible to turn it off until the entire thing has played through, sides one and two.
