That sounds like it's no help at all. Never heard of the New Tweedy Brothers. I'll put something together in a bit, give me an hour or so. By the way, the rest of Nick Garrie's album is less orchestrated than that - so I'll put another of his in the mix when I'm doing it.

i'll bite. maybe a little less orchestra. still like the clean rivers stuff more but always up for new tunes. any lists or sites that might cover 'obscure' late 60's early 70's stuff like these 2 would be nice. i'm off to allmusic.com.

 

thanks,

 

Brian

 

OK, here you go. Sorry it's only 10 songs. It's kind of psych/folk music and not really that obscure at all, but I can certainly hear lots of Wilco's new album in the music (if not the melodies).

 

Mix Link

 

Tracks:

01 Jimmie Spheeris - For Roach

02 Mountain Bus - Sing A New Song

03 31st of February - Pick a Gripe

04 Patto - Time To Die

05 Ronnie Lane & Slim Chance - Anymore For Anymore

06 The Incredible String Band - No Sleep Blues

07 Emitt Rhodes - Mother Earth

08 Brinsley Schwarz - Merry Go Round

09 Nicky Hopkins - Shout It Out

10 The Strawbs - A Glimpse Of Heaven

 

Sorry if it's not what you want . . . . At least I tried!

thanks. i only put up the thing from allmusic because i had never heard of the 'New Tweedy Brothers' and thought it was kinda coincidental.

I read in the NY Daily News this morning that the lead singer of Relatively Clean Rivers is the father of Adam Gadahn, the American Al Qaeda guy who has been in the news for threatening NYC with dirty bombs.

 

There you go, a Wilco-Al Qaeda connection.

 

Tweedy might be on a "watch list" for citing this album as an influence on SBS.

that's fascinating. i recently downloaded that album and it's pretty good. Perlman's lyrics were kinda anti-estabilishment, so that's interesting.

I haven't listened to that RCR record in a while. I think I'll put it on later and see if I can spot the similarities.

I'm preety sure its in site policy not to post offical releases like that.

 

 

I don't really care but honestly if your gonna steal music steal it from someone who doesnt need the money.

Very groovy, Thanks! needmore.gif

 

I've listened to about half of this so far, and musically it's a lot more ambitious than I was expecting after hearing all the mellow 70s vocal talk. There's actually some really sweet guitar playing on this!

I love the Relatively Clean Rivers album...picked it up when I first heard Tweedy mention it a while back. Here's some information on other bands related to RCR from Acid Archives. All involve Phil Pearlman. I haven't heard any of his other projects. Some might be more experimental which is fine by me. I'd also love to hear anything similar to RCR because I love that record so much...

 

BEAT OF THE EARTH (Los Angeles, CA)

 

"Beat Of The Earth" 1967 (Radish as-0001) [500p]

"Beat Of The Earth" 199 (Radish, Europe) [60p; bootleg; plain white labels]

"Beat Of The Earth" 2004 (CD Radioactive, UK)

 

The sleeve says "If you're looking for psychedelic music, do not buy this album unless you're looking for psychedelic music", a fair summing up of this demented cerebral acid-vibe journey. One of the big discoveries of the late 1980s and it certainly is one trancey organ/guitar tribal surfpsych jam trip stretched over two full sides. Warning: this is too far out for many, though I certainly dig it - close to the heart of the LSD experience, even while the main creative force behind it was opposed to drugs. Essential. Phil Pearlman was the main creative force behind the band, and went on to several related projects. [PL]

 

"Electronic Hole" 1970 (Radish as-0002)

"Electronic Hole" 2004 (CD Radish)

 

The most recent discovery in the amazing Phil Pearlman back catalog is this late 1960s drone psych extravaganza. Shorter tracks with clear song structures yet threatening to dissolve into atonal chaos at any moment. Hard to compare to anything else, but Velvet Underground and Zappa influences can be detected, alongside typical westcoast psychedelia with sitars and backwards tapes. Vibe is a bit like Mad River or 50 Foot Hose, true freak sounds from a freaky era, except more garagey. Some melodic moves clearly point towards Relatively Clean Rivers, although six years and another complete metamorphosis lie inbetween. [PL]
