HighFives Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I love his stuff too. What I really want to hear are his old cassette's if any one has files for that I would be very interested. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jakobnicholas Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I only own 2 of his discs (Knock Knock and A River Ain't Too Much To Love), but like them both A LOT. I really need to get more Smog. "River Guard" and "Drinking At the Damn" are 2 of my favorite songs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
people are leaving Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Which SMOG record would be a good starting point ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Which SMOG record would be a good starting point ? Knock Knock for sure... that has 3 of his best songs imo (Cold Blooded Old Times, Hit The Ground Running, & Let's Move To The Country) my faves: Knock KnockDongs of SevotionSupperRed Apple FallsThe Doctor Came At DawnA River Ain't Too MuchRain on Lens Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HighFives Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 yeah knock knock would be the best place to start for sure. I never got into Doctor Came At Dawn for some reason. it's prolly my least favorite besides his old stuff like sewn to the sky or forgotten foundation. my faves are the same as solace's only replace Doctor Came at Dawn with Wild Love. Just because of Prince Alone in the Studio I love that song. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Wild Love is good too. the earliest one i enjoy is Julius Ceasar, and even then I only like a handful of tracks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wilcofan123 Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 his latest release under his own name is pretty great...and he's got a new album coming out in April as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tinnitus photography Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I only own 2 of his discs (Knock Knock and A River Ain't Too Much To Love), but like them both A LOT. I really need to get more Smog. "River Guard" and "Drinking At the Damn" are 2 of my favorite songs. "river guard" is awesome...Callahan's got a great songwriting style and delivery. i would heartily recommend getting _Doctor Came At Dawn_...it's very bleak, but what a statement.

deepseacatfish Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Lots of good stuff. Definitely like Red Apple Falls a lot and his latest release. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DrNo Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I think Woke on a Whaleheart is my favorite thing he's ever done, followed by A River Ain't Too Much To Love and maybe Dongs of Sevotion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Hollinger. Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 new Bill Callahan leaked today... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yermom Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 new Bill Callahan leaked today...Oh man, you kick ass. I'd forgotten there was a new one to anticipate. Sweetness. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WaronWar Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I've been meeting to get some of his stuff since I heard of some of the music he did with Jim O'Rourke. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andshewas Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I'm so glad my iTunes started pushing me to listen to Smog again. I'd forgotten how much I liked it, since I think it's been since high school (at least 3 years) that I listened to him last. I feel a bit ashamed for only having A River Ain't Too Much to Love, so voy buscando por some of the songs/albums y'all have mentioned. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rsjbraz Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Definately get Dongs Of Sevotion, is a wonderfully dark album with some of his best tunes, Bloodflow,Cold Discovery,Permanent Smile etc.Also the lovely Kicking A Couple Around ep is essential. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Calexico Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Huge fan here as well. Dongs Of Sevotion, Red Apple Falls, Rain On Lens and his solo stuff under his own name, all bloody brilliant. Such a wonderful back catalogue that is so rewarding to immerse yourself in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
