  1. He recorded at more places than the LAx -- Aadam Jacobson was his name, I think. (Yeah, the 2 "a's" are not a typo.) I have a recording of Big Star that he made at Metro back in '94; a show that I was at.
  2. I like Mars Audiac Quintet. It's the most song-focoused of their releases; the mosts-accessible with the most hooks.
  3. She also has that Joan Jett look, circa 1982. Hot.
  4. The Wonder Stuff - Never Loved Elvis Son Volt - The Search Sybris - Into the Trees John Coltrane - A Love Supreme Cate Le Bon - Me Oh My
  5. I saw Joe when he toured for Earthquake Weather. He got up for an encore and dedicated a song "...for that Big Audio Dynamite pussy, Mick Jones!" Then he played "Love Kills". I don't think The Clash were ever going to reunite. But... RIP, Joe. We do miss you.
  6. Nice stuff, Nettles! Reminds me more than a little of The Jayhawks. Great guitar tone, too. I'm adding "Brother Jaybo's Tune", but there is something wrong with "100% Mobile"; I can't get that one to stream. You may want to try re-upping that one.
  7. I was contacted by the writer of this article for some comments about Lounge Ax. http://gapersblock.com/transmission/2009/12/21/recasting_the_lounge_ax/ Why me? I'm the guy who started the "I Miss the Lounge Ax" Facebook group, so I guess that they figured that I'd have something to say. Petty good article. And yeah, I still do miss the Lounge Ax.
  8. Not sure about singles and whatnot. I bought it pretty much solely based upon description and the word of Gruff Rhys. But there are streaming tunes at her myspace page. That's all what I know. And that I like it.
  9. Just arrived in the mail and it may be the my second-favorite album of the year (after Cornershop). Caveat: I have not heard nearly as many new releases as many of you, but this is a good one. Reminiscent of a drugged-out Latetia Sadier. Or maybe a more-modern Nico. I like it.
  10. Fiona Apple - When the Pawn... Shane MacGowan - The Snake Blur - Think Tank Them Crooked Vultures - Them Crooked Vultures
  11. Those are certainly better. Although I like simple names. In my opinion, the best band names ever: The Who The Band the The Perfect. Other names I would like to see: (if you're going for academic research references): The Milgram Experiment It's shorter, more pithy. Why not just: Boothroyd Word Lists or Topliss and the Word Lists ? With that second one you have the tease that maybe you have a semineked female frontwoman.
  12. I'm still waiting for it to arrive from Amazon. I'll give you the scoop once I give it a listen.
  13. Okay, so it's a flawed list (what isn't?) and maybe even a flawed concept for true music geeks, like most of us. (I don't think that I would ever qualify as a "hipster," and I doubt that many of us do.) But it's still kinda fun.

  14. Mine does have subtitles. Bought it off of eBay from a vendor in Sao Paolo. New. It all seems to play as needed. However, I have not yet tried watching the special features. Those may not have subtitles. It's available on eBay.
  15. The movie just arrived today and I watched about a third of it. (I'm waiting to watch the whole thing with my wife.) It's pretty much everything that I wanted it to be, and more. There are looks into some of the Estuando a Pagode recording sessions, and pre-tour band rehearsals. Concert footage (of course) and... it's just awesome. Yay ME!!!
  16. I bought this, after hearing good things about it: Has this even come close to any of your lists?
  17. So sorry to hear about this. Many vibes and much love your way.
  18. Pere Ubu - Th Modern Dance Bonnie Prince Billy - Beware The Judy's - Washarama Super Furry Animals - Phantom Power The Birmingham Sound: The Soul of Neil Hemphill Vol. 2
  19. post the link to your page and I'll get you in!
  20. Has anyone heard this? IT came out last year and I cannot find, nor remember any discussion on this. If there was, please point me in the right direction. If not, what are the opinions? From what I've read, this was an improvement over Title TK, and I am once again interested in listening to the Sisters Deal.
  21. The Breeders - Pod Brian Eno - Before and After Science The Sea and Cake- Car Alarm Talking Heads - The Name of This Band Is Talking Heads
  22. Richard Hell & The Voidoids - Blank Generation Sly & The Family Stone - There's a Riot Goin' On Steve Earle - Train a Comin' Elvis Costello & The Attractions - This Year's Model Minutemen - Double Nickels On the Dime
  23. Congratulations! I'll check it out soon.
  24. Again? Keep Dave Navarro as far away from these guys as you can!
