What Are You Listening To?

Surprisingly good

^that is a great cover, don't even care what the music sounds like

Even her schmaltzier non tropicalia records -like this- have wonderful moments. What a voice. After Elis Regina my favorite Brazilian female singer.  That tropicalia stuff Gal did about 1968-1972ish is the bees knees.

Lord I love this music so much





I highly recommend this set at this steep discount

Indeed. Now would it kill them to do a real US tour rather than just a promo tour?

that was good, glad to know that they are in fact better than better than ezra

I had forgotten Elephant Stone wasn’t on the original debut album. Obviously it was added to the US cd and then Fools gold was added on subsequent US cd issues. Will have to check my LP copy.

Anyways it’s on this…

New Order - demos 1980. Recorded September 7, 1980 so less than four months after Curtis died but not less than two months as previously believed. All this stuff has been issued officially on the definitive Movement box. Stephen Morris sings two, Hook who can’t sing butchers Dreams never end and Sumner sings a previously unreleased song about Ian called “Homage” which was performed live two times - also in September 1980 including once in Boston- before being binned.

I find the September 1980 through PCL (November 1982) period fascinating.

Interesting

Hey Kosmo, where ya been? This isn't Sault's first rodeo.

Quickie reviews of the five new Sault albums, in order of preference:

1: 11: This one is the true gem.
2. Earth: This one has some gems, but some tracks are skippsable.
3. God: The music is good, but every god damn song is singing glory to god.
4. Aiir: Listenable pseudo-classical, could server as soundtrack music. Probably won't choose to listen to it again but won't turn the station if I hear it on the radio..
5. Today and Tomorrow: Has a few decent tracks, but I really dislike psych rock. This is the one of the five that my daughter begged the hardest to get me to turn off, and I can't say I disagree.

If you describe your band as The Archies meet Cornershop, by law I’m required to check you out.  Sounding really cool and hopefully a Bandcamp release is in the offing

Really cool.
