    The Byrds
    Sweetheart of the Rodeo (Untitled) I think that it makes me something of a Byrds heretic to proclaim these two as my favorite Byrds albums...at least it would have circa 1971. Both CDs contain bonus tracks that enhance, rather than detract from, the original albums (hearing the original Gram Parsons vocals on several of the "Sweetheart" songs is worth the price of the CD itself. Regardless of whatever combination of legal problems and McGuinn insecurity kept them off the official release, I find it striking just how close McGuinn and Hillman in their own interpretations stuck to feel of Parsons' original takes). I just saw Roger McGuinn a couple of weekends ago and seem to be on a bit of Byrds jag right now. There are worse places to be...

    A Miles Davis Recommendation
    Althought I rarely buy compilations I dicovered that a Miles Davis compilation CD called 'Blue Moods: Music For You' has a rare live version of the song 'Fran-Dance', recorded somewhere in France in the 1950's, specific location/date unknown, and it it's my all-time favorite version of this beautiful song. Check it out :-)Pete

    Bat Chain Puller by Captain Beefheart. As last the original is out..big thanks to whoever mentioned it here a while back and sent me in its direction. and THE FIRST OF "BEAR'S SONIC JOURNALS": BIG BROTHER & THE HOLDING COMPANY FEATURING JANIS JOPLIN. LIVE AT THE CAROUSEL BALLROOM 1968, RECORDED & PRODUCED BY OWSLEY STANLEY ("BEAR") Turn it up LOUD, it's a thrill ride. It is also a rather idiosyncratic mix from Bear with everthing from the PA (drums and voices) on the left hand channel and everything else (guitars) on the right. He explains why in the notes and even tells you how to arrange the speakers to get the best effect! Talking to us from the beyond.

    Currently listening to...
    ...Matisyahu's "Selections from No Place to Be." Just finished listening to Chaise Lounge's sophomore album "Second Hand Smoke," and I'll be listening to Void's "Sessions 1981-83" next. I'm one of those O.C.D. types who likes to rate the music on his/her iPod, and I had to re-boot my laptop's harddrive shortly before Christmas last year, so I've been listening to my entire album collection from "Absolution" to "93-03" in alphabetical order. And in case you're wondering, yes, it takes a LONG TIME to get through over 7,000 songs (especially when I keep adding new stuff and deleting stuff I don't really want anymore)....

Best known for their appearance in Magical Myster Tour, where they performed the song that inspired the band name, Death Cab For Cutie. "That night Cutie called a cab (mm-mm-hmm) Baby, don't do it!"

Rectrospective Here's a pleasant surprise. Sitting at my desk, I was handed a bubble-wrapped package by someone who saw it in my mailbox. Inside, an autographed copy of this CD, out of the blue from a co-worker in Maine. Finest kind! Well I hope you understand I just had to go back To the Island

Death Cab for Cutie appears on their first album 'Gorilla', but I would I recommend the excellent 'Dog's Life' set of all the band's albums, available on Amazon for as little as $11.90. The Bonzos used to be the house band on a very anarchic children's TV show in the UK in the late 60s called 'Do Not Adjust Your Set'. This bunch of spaced out lunatics had a profound effect on the young badger. Neil Innes of course went on to become a celebrated Python (most of the Pythons appeared on DNAYS). Viv Stanshall is a lost and still much lamented genius.

Patricia Ry Cooder and Manuel Galban - late 50's Cuban fused with American pop. Mostly recorded at Egrem Studios, Habana, Cuba, 2002. This isn't going away. Manuel Galban has a new - one minus the Cooder influence - that is very tasty. He finished it shortly before passing at age 80. - Mas quajiro que la palma.

Yesterday it was 'Zeppelin's "IV" and "Physical Graffiti" followed by the 'Stones with "Let It Bleed," "Sticky Fingers," "Exile on Main Street," and "Black and Blue." What can I say? I was having...one of "those" days. Today, I'm in the mood for a little old-school hardcore: Scream's "Still Screaming & This Side Up" and Social Distortion's "Live at the Roxy." Y'know, as great a live act as Social D is, they don't stray much from the Roxy format when playing live. I saw them a year or so ago, and, aside from songs from the new album, they played that live album like it was their set list. Not that I'm complaining; it's a GREAT live album.

SiriusXM is playing a Rob Bertrando audience recording from 2/27/77: very good quality! Wonder if there's a soundboard in the vault? Nice Minglewood leads it off.

And nothing but, right now. Nice box. This era is a bit out of my comfort zone, but I'm enjoying the ride so far. But I'm posting mostly to try out the new format...

Oh, my goodness, what an amazing concert! I pre-ordered my copy almost as soon as I got the e-mail from the ZFT, and I was NOT disappointed. Not one bit! The Persuasions had an excellent opening performance for the 7:30pm show, and the Mothers utterly blew the roof off Carnegie Hall. I wish this album/record had been up for a Grammy earlier this year, 'cause it more than deserved to "bring home the gold." All you Zappa faithfuls out there, if you don't own this brilliant piece of Mothers history, buy it as soon as humanly possible! Also, has anyone picked up any of the recent Mothers/Zappa remasters? I've been trying to collect the old LPs, but almost the entire catalog is available on iTunes, and I'm kinda done with CDs (except for special releases like Dave's Picks).

Time Fades Away Actually, listened to it last night, on vinyl, since vinyl is all I have. Part of the frustration of being a Neil Young fan is that he refuses to re-release this album (there are many more parts, but this will suffice for today), one of my 6 or so favorite Neil albums. Has never been on CD. C'mon, Neil, I know you hate it, but jeez.. The avant nurses homoto? Happy Friday!

Been going back through all of Dave's Picks so far this year and marvelling at their seemless beauty. Now I'm anxious for the release of "Spring 1990: So Glad You Made It." And finding it harder and harder to resist that "Spring 1990" box set....

I have been listening to nothing but these shows, in order, for almost 2 weeks now. Absolutely blistering! The box is THE box that all future box sets will be measured against, but the music alone is awesome!
