The Velvet Underground pose with their old pal Nico in Warhol-inspired color bar portraits on the front of this soft black t-shirt. Pairs nicely with shiny boots of leather. 100% cotton.

I saw them in Glasgow a month prior to that video and I'm racking my brains trying to remember if Bob was in the band then.

I think I had the sunny side up tee as well, but in blue

is that a britpop dude?

I would love a tee w/just the Wowee Zowee cover art

greta van vliet (morrisp), Saturday, 27 October 2018 00:11 (five years ago) link

"Pavement asked me to paint their album cover for Wowee Zowee and it was absolutely incredible to have that happen because I'm so into their music. A few days later, I painted a bunch of stuff on paper for them to pick out which one they wanted. They had been doing all sorts of funny scribbly drawings and stuff on their previous album covers so I thought they were just gonna take my art and kind of chop it up and make a collage out of it like their other albums. But they basically just straightforwardly took one of the things that I painted and then they stuck the words on top of it. I painted about 20 or 30 different covers. I can't remember. A bunch of stuff. One of our friends, she was very into Middle Eastern studies and she eventually started teaching Arabic literature at college. But she was a friend of Stephen's. There was a Middle East vibe in the air. Everybody ate falafels like crazy back then. I just thought, 'I'll try some of this out,' with an old-time, far-away Middle Eastern look. Back then Middle Eastern was less specific then it is now. Twenty years ago it was just exotic."

huh, no mention of this:

Well the painting is totally unrelated

Yeah he even says “they stuck the words on top of it.”

That self portrait of Sarah Lucas will be hot forever.

I went to Steve Keene's workspace once and he had loads and loads of paintings in bins that he was just giving away. We got a bunch of wood cuttings that oddly looked like me and my dude and gave him a couple of twenties.

About ten years ago I bought a set of five randomly selected paintings off his website for like $25, and he sent me twelve, all on wood. One of them was of Pavement at the Hollywood Bowl.

Ah yeah, I know that from "Stuff Up the Cracks"...

i stan corrected (morrisp), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:09 (five years ago) link

Def. a 1993 show... I saw them 2x on that leg, I'll try to find the recording!

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:10 (five years ago) link

Sweet!

i stan corrected (morrisp), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:11 (five years ago) link

Apparently "Living Excuse" was a working title for "Cut Yr Hair" from my source...

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:15 (five years ago) link

"Sleep" is Fillmore Jive

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:15 (five years ago) link

"MT" = In The Mouth A Des(s)ert

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:15 (five years ago) link

"Loretta's II" = "Elevate Me Later"

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:16 (five years ago) link

Interesting to know they were playing a few CR, CR songs in '93.

i stan corrected (morrisp), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:17 (five years ago) link

That was Gary's last tour, maybe even one of his last shows.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:19 (five years ago) link

I didn't get to see him play with them until the reunion show in Berkeley... that was really cool, something I thought I'd never get to see.

i stan corrected (morrisp), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:21 (five years ago) link

"sebadoh" came out on the CR deluxe as "all my friends"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6JK4p_vnqo

tylerw, Friday, 25 January 2019 21:33 (five years ago) link

That's a great song! I never made the connection w/the early version on Stuff Up the Cracks.

i stan corrected (morrisp), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:36 (five years ago) link

I'm gonna one up Tyler W (as this is a rare chance to) but "Sebadoh/Helen Stones" first showed up on the Gold Soundz b-side "Exit Theory":
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ag-C3_xQjW0

The unabridged version came out on the CR Deluxe as "All My Friends"

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:56 (five years ago) link

Wow! I have that 7"... and again, never noticed it was the same song.

I wonder why they originally called it "Sebadoh"... it doesn't really sound like Sebadoh? Or maybe it does a little, I dunno

i stan corrected (morrisp), Friday, 25 January 2019 21:59 (five years ago) link

Because...

xxp haha that's right! i remember hearing that snippet back in the day and thinking it was pretty cool sounding ...

tylerw, Friday, 25 January 2019 22:28 (five years ago) link

xp -- !! Talk about another connection I would have never made...

i stan corrected (morrisp), Friday, 25 January 2019 22:33 (five years ago) link

holy shit, "All My Friends" is one of my top 5 Pavement songs and I still can't believe they didn't put it on the album
I would KILLLLLLL to hear them play it live

Great rehearsal/performance footage here (w/Gary). Anyone know what song they’re rehearsing?:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzTNs67OZEQ

Consider the coconut (morrisp), Saturday, 22 June 2019 04:45 (four years ago) link

it was listed on the setlist as "punk song".

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Saturday, 22 June 2019 05:16 (four years ago) link

There’s nothing like that early Pavement sound.

Consider the coconut (morrisp), Saturday, 22 June 2019 05:56 (four years ago) link

The best. Slanted and Enchanted remains my favorite record I ever bought the year it came out.

My dream is for one day my office phone to ring with a local investment broker on the other end. "Holy shit," she'll say before hanging up.
