  1. Preliminary list of releases: http://new-vinyl.blogspot.com/2012/02/record-store-day-5-april-21-2012-rsd12.html T-Rex Deluxe and Super Deluxe: http://www.superdeluxeedition.com/news/t-rex-electric-warrior-deluxe-super-deluxe-editions-on-the-way/
  2. Mellon Collie, The Wallflowers and New Adventures in Hi Fi. Suzanne Vega was ubiquitous.
  3. Sometimes I think it'll take just Clinton (and Stephanopoulos) in the White House, Greenspan in the Central Bank, and Martha Stewart in prime time television, plus Seinfeld, and there you go, the nineties are resurrected. But then I think, with these people already too old, and Boris Yeltsin brought back from the afterlife, it'll be like roaming in a nation of zombies
  4. I first had the impression that it was an album of brand new songs, but even if it's only covers I'm going to be among the first in line to buy it. (And it's very unlikely that there are any lines in these days of sluggish CD sales The excitement of a new record is no longer provided by other bands like R.E.M., so there's the Counting Crows to fill the void, plus they're also touring, I should catch one of their shows before it's too late, before they get too old and decide to stop touring or making records altogether. I should mention that I have all of their records.
  5. New album just announced, appears April 10th.
  6. So I thought I'd create this little thread for discussion of the Wilderness of Manitoba, last year I purchased their LP When you left the fire, some pretty good folk songs in there, nice artwork enveloping the CD as well. Reportedly they entered the studio in January to record a new album, while the frontman of the band Will Whitwham has announced a solo project as "Lake Forest", this album comes out February 21st in Canada. Overall one the brightest spots in the Canadian music landscape today, you can listen to some of their music here: http://www.thewilder...toba.com/music/
  7. people, the journalist is citing the age of all four interviewees, Auerbach is 32 while the other two range in the 23-28 yr old bracket, to put things into perspective, that's probably why Tweedy's called elder. Anyway, it's a good thing to describe someone as a statesman, I mean, I wouldn't mind if colleagues or friends suddenly started calling me Elder Statesman, it's a nice thing to be called.
  8. As part of a feature about the current "recession" in rock music, Jeff Tweedy was interviewed by British newspaper The Independent. Other artists interviewed were members of The Black Keys, the Alabama Shakes and EMA. Here are Tweedy's words: Link to The Independent: http://www.independe...rs-6297961.html

  10. Peter Buck once said he cried to "The Foggy Dew" a song by Sinead O Connor and The Chieftains. http://www.sinead-oc...-praises-sinead
  11. A survey in the British journal The Telegraph has found these to be the 20 saddest songs of all time: Everybody Hurts - REM Candle in the Wind - Elton John The Living Years - Mike and the Mechanics I will always love you - Whitney Houston Nothing compares to you - Prince/Sinead O'Connor Hallelujah - Leonard Cohen/Alexandra Burke/Jeff Buckley My heart will go on - Celine Dion Fix You - Coldplay Seasons in the sun - Terry Jacks Without You - Harry Nilsson Yesterday - The Beatles All by myself - Eric Carmen My Way - Frank Sinatra Sound of silence - Simon and Garfunkel Aint no sunshine - Bill

  17. Being Jeff Tweedy: Life with Wilco By Jim Harrington Oakland Tribune Jeff Tweedy's day is booked solid. He's got a full schedule of phone interviews, promoting his band's upcoming tour dates, as well as some errands to run for his wife. The Wilco leader is in full multitask mode as he takes a call, fielding questions while his "honey-do" list leads him through the streets of Chicago. Not helping matters is that the Windy City just had experienced its first major snowfall of the season, which has traffic tied up in knots. "It drives me crazy," the 44-year-old singer-songwriter mutters. "I
  18. Everything's correct now, I think I was misspelling my username, which was causing the database problem. I tried removing the _ and it worked, issue solved, back to posting again.
