What Are You Listening to? 2020

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/8c503cebfe5a211bba2bcada88ec9fcd/6804049
10cds of Coltrane in '62 with the original classic Quartet live in various parts of Europe including several Scandinavaian, French and Italian venues, noticeably not the UK who had apparently not given him th ebest reception presumably the year before. I got this in FOPP for £15, was kicking myself on leaving London last year for not grabbing either this or the previous year box set. '61 has Eric Dolphy alongside the Quartet. Wondering if this could possibly be the same copy I didn't grab, hope that isn't likely. Particularly with every other mainstream record shop in town closing.
Has long improvisatory work outs on several tracks from popular musicals as well as his own compositions. I hear this stuff as very influential on later psychedelic jamming.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/cf566e37dc6929d1050788e1d81a2a0d/2729505
this lot particularly picked up on the work of Coltrane. They did a long version of his India live.
This is their 2nd lp which it has taken me way way too long to pick up. I had heard that it was less psychedelic and more country rockish. On actually getting it I can hear country flavour in it but it's a lot more floaty and psychedelic.
I think I now have pretty much everything this group has recorded in either of its better known incarnatiions, also have the Habibiya lp which was cut by part of the band alongside Susan Graubard Archuletta who had been in the New Age alongside pat kilroy, habibiyya has her with her then husband Conrad. Don't have anything by Ace which was the band Bam King later went onto or the Reg king solo lp. May look into getting some of what the other members went onto. Chilli Willi & The Red Hot Chilli Peppers sounds interesting.
I got this lp in its extended form as part of the new box set of their complete recordings At a Point Between Fate and Destiny which came out on Grapefruit (through Cherry red) just before Xmas. Great set which seems to be pretty good throughout including the unreleased, unfinished lp though Glastonbury sounds a bit disorganised.
Got the Action box set for Xmas the year before from the same person. Have loved them since hearing the Edsel compilation The Ultimate when I was like 14. that covers their mod blue-eyed soul era through to the beginnings of their psychedelic era. Didn't go as far as the Brain/Rolled Gold material which I think was unknown at the time. It had been the first time they'd really been compiled though.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/734f99c451b4c9cf2dae4c970493f749/6534164
psychedelic ish stuff I picked up in Rough Trade over Xmas.
Enjoying this, just realised that the male voice doing a talkover in one opf the tracks is ex-Can member Malcolm Mooney.
NIce melange of influences on here. I think I need to investigate her further.

Quick turnover isnce I'm working through the cds I picked up over Xmas
//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/d28eb45d3abaaf9ac6f8d3064cddf350/1508572
NOt sure I was aware of the existence of this before coming across it in Sister ray over Xmas. '73 funk live from the Stax festival in Watts LA. I finally got to see the film a couple of years ago. Can't think offhand what of this was in that.
Band's pretty good live , lots of wah wah and stuff.
NOt sure how the live lp from the time compares to this think this is pretty great anyway. Came out in 2003 apparently.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/a065a80c9f1458f11a6d519c0eeaa7a7/7830449
most recent lp by the free jazz rock band led by Weasel Walter, bought from thei rmerch stall at the LOndon gig before Xmas.
Wire review says they took the sound of electric Miles and gave it their own twist. I hear echoes of the sound of Miles around Dark Magus though there's no trumpet.
Nice psychedelic noisy stuff.
Very glad i got to the gig and now need to investigate the back catyalogue more thoroughly and whatver other Weasel Walter projects.

working my way through the box set.
This time was the disc of rehearsals for the 2nd lp, Jug Of Love. It's a bit earlier and mainly instrumental.
This and Glastonbury may be the least essential discs on here.

For some reason Jug of Love never really hooked me, I'll have to try again sometime. Love the s/t.

Listening to the Myrrors, one of the few modern bands to remind me of Trad Gras och Stenar et al

I need to pick up more of the recent 3EB remasters. The s/t one was good at least.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/1b61316b972e587f502088be602f8ccd/1252664
the Animal label lp, a bit weird possibly a slight swing away from the previous couple in the oddness direction.
Has some good stuff on it.
BUt maybe isn't the best thing to put on in musically conservative company. Or at least has its quikiness written large so not likely to grab the floating voter. possibly.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/1710c00ef0f186afca344eaa001b6ba1/1942184
1973 lp by soul/whatever artist . I got this as part of a 5cd box in whatever series the label does.
Pretty good funky experimental stuff. Starts with him conducting an orchestral piece and goes into some more spacey stuff.
Need to listen through the rest of teh box which i think is pretty much most of his catalogue.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/78ffe71cec83fb508e89fef3dde8c02f/1650797
earlyish lp from him, from '72.
Great psychedelic tranced out jams as with most of his stufff.
This came with a couple of extra tracks from an unreleased single which sounds like he's less along the route to developing Afrobeat.
I still need to hear the 60s stuff like the Koolo Loobitos recordings, but assume they must sound more like the extra stuff here.

THe first of his lps to get the long awaited remaster. Psychedelic pop funk. Quite salacious in places.
Need to pick up 1999 which was about the first lp by him i was aware of.
Quite enjoying this, came with a cd of various outtakes etc which has some interesting contemporaneous stuff on.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/403cccad1b99150c5234a0a27654358f/1867147
picked this up in the wake of reading the book on Anadolu Psych which made it out to be not as good as the 1976 lp and the 1979 one not as good as it. I need to pick up those other 2 lps. & stuff by a few other artists who sound somewhat similar.
Do like this stuff mid 70s Turkish blending traditional sounds with elements of Western rock of the psych kind.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/f088da78abd87a873b68626a45376749/7012920
a band I'm not very familiar with, blends a number of different genres into its alternative rock. I'm hearing bits of psych, possibly no wave, world, The Minutemen and a few other bits and pieces and this lp was produced by a dance producer.
Another band I need to pick up more things by.
Recommended, but probably find that I'm the last person to the feast, so you already know that.

https://www.sunburnsout.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/the-prefects-going-through-the-motions.jpg
Compilation of Birmingham punk band the Prefects recordings. I think a lot of this was unreleased at the time but has been released previoulsy on other compilations of the band. Looking for the image for this I found taht there was an existing compilation from about 15 years ago with the same tracks in a different order.
The band went on to be The Nightingales, I think the lineup was similar at least initially. Nightingales went onto being peel favs for years.
Pretty rough stuff but I think trying to break away from identikit punk even at the time.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/42cbcce6349f00b7a4c63a8d9c582502/7336471
compiles pretty much everything by postpunk band featuring future Ant Marco Pirroni on guitar and ex-original Ant Dorothy Max prior on drums alongside several people who were better known later as the Wolfgang Press and Renegade Soundwave.
A band I wasn't really aware of until recently. I did think Big Black's take on their track Rema rema was pretty great when I heard it on Sound of Impact but knew nothing about the original. Not sure why I never looked into that tends to be the way I find out about other bits of music I get heavily into.
POstpunk, noisy, a bit psychedelic though very dark..

Love that Rema-Rema comp! I only had the Wheel In The Roses EP as mp3s for a long time so I was pleasantly surprised more existed.

3 lps on 2cd by Joe Harriott who I have had recommended to me for ages. Love his Hum Dono which I picked up a couple of years ago.
This is modern but not very abstract. Well at least the first disc which s what I'm listening to here. MIght be different on the lp of the same name.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/04f4e31271b08e37d11cb17e19ab66e9/6505455
this comes with a free 2nd cd of early country artists called Rough Guide to Country Music Pioneers which is what I'm actually listening to this week. Pretty great stuff i think I need more by several artists on .
THe sound is pretty decent considering the vintage.
Bought this as an Xmas present for someone then found something else for them later in the trip. Keep expanding the country they're listening to after having been introduced to them being a Johnny cash fan. Seems like they got a good overlap with a lotof this stuff in being bought the compilation cd tied in with the Ken Burns series anyway. & they wound up with the Richard & Linda THompson Live '75 set instead which I wasn't aware was still around.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/745ce364f0cfda6e30a2fcb1ffa6a703/3782061
THe original lp plus about the same duration again of bojus material. Mops up most of their recordings.
I hadn't realised that Sean Byrne wwas the main songwriter as well as rhythm guitarist when I played Psychotic reaction to fulfill my irish origin music quote while doing a radio show a couple of years back. Did know he came from Dublin originally.
Finding the music slightly more complex in places than i might have expected. & they seem to be more Who fixated than most other uS bands of the time there are 2 direct covers from the My Generation lp on the actual lp and a few that sound like they're would bes.THough its the Yardbirds taht are always cited as the influence on the title track.
The bonus stuff gets a bit more diverse including more soul derived stuff and psychedelic pop and stuff.
Do like this band . Shame to ghear that Sean Byrne spent the last years of his life in bad financial straits.
I'm still interested in finding out what of the garage psych lps are actually necessary since I have a number of compilations taht aren't the straight released lps.

I bought a 4CD Proper box by Joe Harriott not long ago but haven't gotten around to it.

Currently listening to Grand Funk Railroad, Live: The 1971 Tour, which has to be played at abusively loud volume to really be appreciated. I fucking love it.

I've been on a calypso kick this week. Looked up info on Mighty Sparrow's "Robbery with a V", discovered that it was indeed a dis track aimed at another musician, that musician being called Mighty Dougla. youtube comments on dougla's songs are all from his relatives looking up his music.

the 2cd remaster of this, I think I've mainly been half asleep when I've heard this version and had it on pretty quiet but these remasters seem to sound pretty great.
Keep wondering if Neubauten were fans of thsi record as well as early pink Floyd. Need to look up the Maoist perpetual village.
Anyway deep sace funky rocky stuff with ambient touches in places. Great great stuff.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/2c90f036eb7bbd0924b24d870f50edf9/4614811
2nd lp by great mancunian band. Showing some prog roots but helping invent post-punk. NOt sure what direct influence they had but would like to find out if anything showing their influence was as inventive as them.
Barry Adamson went onto various incarjnations of teh Bad Seeds and his own solo stuff is great.
John McGeoch went onto the Banshees and then a later, quite good version of P.I.L. in the late 80s. Shame he died so young.
I found this at the bottom of a pile fo stuff while tidying up last year still in th package it came in. Which is a major oversight. Should be way more familiar with the band.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/c8f4b784231366f1b83ea8b554d81ebc/2293568
focus more on the backing band than their main singer. THough he does feature.
I think I'm hearing things I'm more used to being Public Enemy samples featuring prominently.
Great set but I think I need to check chronology of things I'm hearing.
Picked this up from Honest John's recently and should have been much longer ago. Do love a bitta JB.

The first time I heard "The Grunt" my mind was blown (I was familiar with the PE sample for a long time before that)

down with flu so lay in bed and listened through these like 3 times in a row

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/02958c11ac4e24d7f92780cd9968205d/7693136
pretty necessary contemporary garage psych rock with some pretty frantic guitar.
Mike Stax of Ugly Things appears on backing vocals . He has a Bo Diddley tribute band with the guitarist, or did.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/adc2134bb192cf605c99a239768c0508/7121896
so faqr have listened through the 2nd disc the one that's All Of Us and contemporary singles and outtakes.
Glad to find this isn't the mono/stereo set taht i thought it was for a while cos I don't rally want to listen to the same lp twice in a row.
About time i got the 60s stuff in full have enjoyed this band for a few decades.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/c09eb1f007f1875f2c61dfce714ff67a/1245586
I hadn't heard this before today and possibly only picked it up to complete the set of lps.
It's pretty interesting though. Different to Daevid Allen era anyway. Atmospheric mainly instrumental material.
Wort6h hearing, but I think the 2cds may be limited editions so may be necessary to grab them soon if you want one.

i am loving this world jazz album which actually has a thumping heart that is integrated into laswell's bass play. a real trip. great line-up too. pharoah and bill plus trilok gurtu (tabla), nicky skopelitos (sitar & guitar), graham haynes (cornet) and jeff bova (keyboards).

got the 4 disc set in the mail today, so glad he decided to release this stuff physically

^ That's great that the vinyl reduction of the Archive is "1-ish"

Xxp did like the Death Leprosy lp seemed to be some interesting use of melody tempering the metal. Used to especially love pull the plug.
Not really familiar with the rest of the bands work though may have sound files somewhere.

Was hearing a bit of a 60s feel against the metal. Was guitarist a fan of Hendrix,Cream etc as well as more metallic stuff.

Entire Death discog, but this second one has been a slight surprise highlight

checking this out now. killer.

damn now i'm listening to symbolic with the lyrics in the video - totally blown away.

"In need of a fix called innocence" is just on the righteous side of emo IMO--I also like how Schuldiner's voice remained v. decipherable, sort of a shriekier Mustaine or Araya; the higher-pitched banshee style by the time of The Sound of Perseverance has grown on me a bunch since first listen, too

is that meant to look like a Hawkwind cash-in album from the 90s

This album makes a lot more sense to me on cassette, walking around with it in a Walkman--have become esp partial to "Red Hill Mining Town" in terms of the non-singles

don't know anything about him but those covers make me want to investigate

I think the Black Ark was his most famous and revered lp. It got a lavish reissue on cd about a decade ago which I picked up.
Haven't investigated him much further though.

Oh hey Stevolende! Thanks for posting that Herbcraft Trash Heap, I checked it out along with an earlier tape (Flowering) and really dig it.

cool, I do try to buy most of the things that Cardianl fuzz put out which si why I bought that. It is pretty interesting, possibly a bit too close to Population II for me to be listening to both on the same 3 changer rotation but quite intersting in its own right. It's the pre-completion version of some of the material for one of their lps or at least work reworked elsewhere I think.
NOt really come across them before but glad i did

oh right to be more specific they were works in progress that got misplaced in a bo somewhere so not sure if these exact songs appeared in different form elsewhere
