^^I just listened to the Crowell ep of WTF, and Maron brings up how hard that album is to find online now (not available on other streamers either); Crowell just talks around that, mentioning that it was a successful record from before he was really good.

Hey Now Hey Now Now

In a new post on his Neil Young Archives website, the legendary artist said the end of Spotify’s exclusive deal with Rogan led to his decision to restore his music to the service. “My decision comes as music services Apple and Amazon have started serving the same disinformation podcast features I had opposed at Spotify,” the post reads – a clear reference to the Joe Rogan Experience, though Young never mentions it by name.“I cannot just leave Apple and Amazon, like I did Spotify, because my music would have very little streaming outlet to music lovers at all, so I have returned to Spotify, in sincere hopes that Spotify sound quality will improve and people will be able to hear and feel all the music as we made it,” Young continued, before shouting out Qobuz and Tidal, where his catalog also lives, as “High res” streaming options.

Didn’t Spotify still pay Rogan a huge amount of money to keep producing disinformation? (The fact that it’s not exclusive is even worse, from a certain point of view!)Not to police Young’s decision-making, but the decision (and rationale) is… surprising, I guess, after the stand he took.

At some point since it was last brought up, GI by the Germs has been added (credited to Slash & Rhino, BTW).

Wow, you’re right (it’s on the other services too)

Cardiacs are back up, except for Archive Cardiacs (a compilation from their first two cassette-only releases).

Annoying when an album has certain tracks greyed out. In the UK right now, Perverted By Language is missing Eat Y'Self Fitter and Smile and they're not available on any other release either. Licensing weirdness.

Yeah, that's annoying. I can understand it for compilation albums but always seems odd when it's an artist album and just a couple of tracks are greyed out 🤷♂️

xpost re:randomly unavailble/greyed out stuff-"what are their names" on the first david crosby album is still unplayable in the usa. i thought maybe his passing would prompt something getting sorted, but no. not even on the deluxe edition.

FYI, there appears to be a Live Garth Brooks recording that's made its way onto Spotify and Apple Music, despite his vow against streaming. Listen while you can, if you like...
