mmm that makes me remember that the best slow druggy version of that is on the Quine Tapes and is like 11 minutes long

(Waiting For The Man that is)

Ambient Police (sleeve), Friday, 28 June 2019 14:38 (four years ago) link

it's on the matrix tapes too! (same performance)

tylerw, Friday, 28 June 2019 15:40 (four years ago) link

oh right, jeez this shit is so confusing. there's two Sister Rays on the Quine box that are NOT on the Matrix tapes though, right?

Ambient Police (sleeve), Friday, 28 June 2019 15:41 (four years ago) link

yeah, it is confusing haha. there's the family dog sister ray and the ohio sister ray/foggy notion on the quine tapes that are not on the matrix tapes.

tylerw, Friday, 28 June 2019 15:43 (four years ago) link

(and tbh the difference in recording quality on that long slow "waiting" is so major that they are almost totally different experiences altogether for me. both are awesome).

tylerw, Friday, 28 June 2019 15:52 (four years ago) link

whoa -- even more Dallas 1969 footage (this time with sound!). still very brief, but amazing. and a sterling morrison interview!

Ambient Police (sleeve), Friday, 28 June 2019 17:30 (four years ago) link

budo jeru, Friday, 28 June 2019 17:40 (four years ago) link

holy moley

Οὖτις, Friday, 28 June 2019 17:43 (four years ago) link

So weird to see Moe & Doug on opposing sides of the stage, was that always their set-up in the latter years?

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 28 June 2019 17:44 (four years ago) link

The VU is good, but did The Nazz blow them away that day? Maybe it's my lack of coffee this morning...

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 28 June 2019 17:51 (four years ago) link

Holy hell. Thank you for posting that, tyler!

erik "ez snappin" actually directed me to it ...

tylerw, Friday, 28 June 2019 18:31 (four years ago) link

I love how people are just milling around, hanging out, chatting, and I'm thinking, "BUT THAT'S THE VELVET UNDERGROUND! RIGHT THERE! YOU SHOULD BE FREAKING THE FUCK OUT!"

Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Friday, 28 June 2019 18:32 (four years ago) link

"who played at the protest?"

"some band from New York with a weird name, I forget"

Ambient Police (sleeve), Friday, 28 June 2019 18:51 (four years ago) link

"an old lady in a sweatshirt"

Οὖτις, Friday, 28 June 2019 18:56 (four years ago) link

lol

budo jeru, Friday, 28 June 2019 19:02 (four years ago) link

"but then later Dr. Heavy And His Blues Vagabonds came on and totally rocked, so it was cool."

Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Friday, 28 June 2019 19:02 (four years ago) link

that vinyl box is half price on amazon france. or it was earlier today, anyway.

Quilter Ray still shouldn't be broken in two

― EZ Snappin

thanks i needed a new DN

Quilter Ray (rushomancy), Saturday, 29 June 2019 01:02 (four years ago) link

and yeah whoever that generic blues band were kind of blew them off the stage, sorry but they were such sleepy hippies by fall of '69...

Quilter Ray (rushomancy), Saturday, 29 June 2019 01:09 (four years ago) link

sleep hippie vu is still kickass

d'ILM for Murder (Hadrian VIII), Saturday, 29 June 2019 01:35 (four years ago) link

Too lazy to itemise - anyone know what’s on the vinyl that ain’t on the CDs?

an incoherent crustacean (MatthewK), Saturday, 29 June 2019 01:44 (four years ago) link

Wait, was the other band The Nazz or not?

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:08 (four years ago) link

Not the Nazz
Just a buzz
Some kinda temporary

Vini C. Riley (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:11 (four years ago) link

Matrix tapes on vinyl has the same tracks as matrix tapes on cd.

tylerw, Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:39 (four years ago) link

yeah but the vinyl has all the CD tracks except they’re on vinyl

budo jeru, Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:42 (four years ago) link

The numbering for the tracks is a little different because of Sister Ray being split. There is no exclusive content to the vinyl.

Cow_Art, Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:43 (four years ago) link

ah THAT'S why there's 43 tracks instead of 42, thanks

Ambient Police (sleeve), Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:45 (four years ago) link

Thanks, I had assumed that was the reason. I would have been pretty ticked off after buying the same tracks 4 times on 1969 Live, Quine Tapes, 3rd album 45th anniversary and then the Matrix CDs.

an incoherent crustacean (MatthewK), Saturday, 29 June 2019 03:45 (four years ago) link

Don't think that was the Nazz, but after Rundgren amscrayed in early '69, the rest of the band did relocate to Dallas, and worked out of there with guitarist Snuffy Walden (later of Free and loads of TV soundtracks) for about six months before throwing in the towel near the end of the year.

Too bad this rally was a little too soon for an appearance by Cast of Thousands featuring Stevie's Tobolosky & Ray Vaughan:

Yeah luckily the video is easily found on YouTube. Great footage though I wish the audio was a little louder

willem, Saturday, 29 June 2019 09:35 (four years ago) link
