Linda Perhacs vs. Erica Pomerance

oh i gotta check Erica pomerance out, who is she?

(but probably erica pomerance.)

Perhacs.

Julio: Linda only has the one album, as far as i'm aware.

That album by Gary Higgins, "Red Hash", mentioned on another thread recently is also worth checking out, especially for fans of Perhacs.

Also if you haven't got it you should pick up a copy of Buffy Sainte-Marie's Illuminations (currently on offer at HMV for £6.99) from 1969 which really is electroacoustically out there, almost on a par with The Marble Index. Stevie Nicks and Kristin Hersh both start here...

But, yeah, Red Hash all the way. You won't be dissapointed.

*suddenly coughs* It's FINALLY out? When, where, etc.

An album, not a box set. I am currently listening to the second disc of the Pet Shop Boys' Behaviour reissue.

PSB rule. there are no two ways about it. see, ned, i like most of the stuff you listen to. i really do. you and your boy corgan i'll never understand for the life of me, but such is life.

I don't get yr Perry Leopold fascination tho, scott - i mean, it's actually a little too straight / way too 'cosmic' for me at points. For cracked 'where are they now?' loners, i much prefer Vulcan, Mark Tucker, or Bob whatsisname - you know, the guy who did Juppiter Transmissions...

Er um uh. (But I do like Brad because he's cool. I just like the Electric Company more.)

PSB rule. there are no two ways about it

Yes, my friend. *currently lost in the perfect disco of "Bet She's Not Your Girlfriend"*

i've never actually heard Christian Lucifer, just Experiments In Metaphysics. I dunno, it has a certain quality, a wisful sad thing going on underneath. i dig that.

THAT WE ARE LEGION. Now, a guitar solo.

thanks Ned, I like Electric Company more as well ( today anyways...)

So Roger, from what you are saying about Siamese Dream it makes me think that there is an instrumental version out there somewhere that i should here? Cuz that's the only way you'll get me to hear the whole thing. and you are wrong about the weirdo psych thing. Heck, even this new ghost album beats corgan by a mile. on his best day. with ghost bound and gagged like hentai vixens.

WORSHIP THE GOTHIC RIFF MOTHERFUCKERS. Wait I'm losing perspective again. Great outfit, though.

Woo! Education, see, I learn by osmosis. I do rather like that Misery Loves Co. cover of "The Drowningman" but apparently I'm the only one?

Now Marble Sheep, THERE was a band. unholy of holy psychnoisemonsters that they were once upon a time.

Did you ever hear about the Terrastock 4 show they did when they had about a 10 minute set because of Seattle's 'we close at 2 am without exception' bar rules? Tore the roof off the place, the surrounding buildings, Pike Street Market...

the album Judgement.(Music For Nations-2000)

It wasn't THAT amazing. Major Stars, Charalambides, Bardo Pond, Moe Tucker, and Crome Syrcus were all far better / more entertaining than Ghost. Personally, my favorite were the hot dogs sold outside.

As I don't even remember Crome Syrcus, for instance, we'll have to differ. You are right about the hot dogs, though.

if her show last night was any indication, linda's new album is gonna rule

How was it? Am debating whether to go and see her in London.

Surprisingly strong after 44 years!

Ha, hadn't seen this thread was already revived. Nite Jewel is on the album as well as Julia Holter.

Also, performance this past weekend:

set from Sweden a couple of weeks ago

Linda Perhacs
So happy to announce that "The Soul Of All Natural Things" will be released on Asthmatic Kitty Records March 4th 2014. Here is the first song you get to hear... "Freely" along with a breathtaking video by Kyle Safieh http://youtu.be/3n-nWy6fB00 after 44 years. We have a new album!

very nice. sounds like it could be off parallelograms, which i have no objection to.

Hot damn, just got the promo sent me. Listening now...

wahhhhh, not fair!

At the risk of irritating you further, it's very good so far. It's not a sequel to Parallelograms, rather a complementary work after all these years. Just enough subtle hints of things that wouldn't have been around in 1970.

Not loving The Soul of All Natural Things on first listen. It's a little too delicate--it sounds a little too much like a grandmother singing lullabies to a preschooler.

just heard her new stuff, think it's pretty beautiful. i totally forgot who this woman was and i didn't pick up any ... grandmotherly tones to it. thought it sounded like a new take on those old obscuro psych songs from the late 60s/early 70s ... like Saffron, etc.
