How is it fucked? It's just Paul doing his take on the "1920s sound". A lot of bands were doing that around that time - Moby Grape, The Monkees, The New Vaudeville Band, etc.

Well, some people care about how releases sound. I have found that most first generation cds sound terrible. And some things, such as On The Beach, for example were out of print until a couple of years ago.

It probably will. Sometimes they show up the next day, sometimes in a few days, weeks, months, etc. We never know - all we can do is wait. And of course, some shows never appear. We get a lot more Wilco shows these days, and a lot quicker access to the shows than we did a couple of years ago. So that is something positive.

If you are talking about the most recent Wilco show from that city, no source has appeared yet.

I think psychedelic was a marketing term made up to sell records. I have never used that term when describing such bands. To me, they are a San Francisco band, and thus, part of the San Francisco music scene.

When I Came Down is a cool song. The Rebel (Whole song - Youtube link). I am not entirely convinced that is legit. It just sounds funny to me.

I mean, we see that with older shows - a patch from an AUD into a SBD or whatever, (I am thinking of various GD shows) but this was a case of mixing and matching to try and create some sort of "perfect" show.

I was not jumping on you - just putting that thought out there. People do all sorts of nutty things with files these days. I saw a group of songs not long of another band that turned out to be parts of various songs put together from different shows. And whoever did it, did not mark it as being what it was. That is like something a record company would do.

I don't think that is a good idea - mixing and matching two different sets of files. I see a lot of this sort of thing going with another certain band's live shows; everyone changing this and that, tweaking, re-mastering, adjusting, etc. I guess some people like that sort of thing, others do not. I suppose I am apt to just accept them the way they are. Of course we are not talking about live shows in this case, but rather studio tracks. Everyone can do as they please with audio files - we see that all the time. It gets tricky when such things get put out in the trading community though.

I think there is some talk of that in the first volume of the Taping Compendium.

That was the first Dylan album I ever owned.

I believe both of the above mentioned substances are in a powder form, and are brown in colour.

I never got into them. I understand the film has done some good things for them.

I uploaded this for some folks on another message board - so here it is if anyone wants it: Black Sabbath - Earth Studio Sessions (Megaupload link)

I've read about that show in the Taper's book. The guy's blog you linked to is a pretty cool deal. I have mentioned it a few times in this thread. I download his podcast and listen to them with Winamp.

Another case of one rock star's wife running off with another rock star. I wonder if they ever laugh about that.

Ross Halfin has some photos and text up about the show.

You can't even buy a thrill.

It's on the free Pay Per View channel here where I live. I find that hilarious. I think the description reads "two boys ride around on bikes and sniff glue" or something like that.

I use to be in a bike gang. Here is some

Is it a mail train?

Rod joined Jeff to do some songs recently:

A lot of bands from that time did not always play on their records. It was the era of the studio musician, after all. And starting from Headquarters on, they had control of what they did, including more of their own songs being recorded vs. songs by others. I believe Mickey has said many times that they were hired to play the part of a rock band, that they were not a rock band. That changed, though as Mike and Pete wanted to be a real band, and not just a couple of guys on a TV show. If you take the time to dig beneath the hits, there are some great songs to be found on their albums.

That album did big numbers back in the day. I think it was partly due to that video - which was the case for a lot of those 80s bands.
