Hey Den Buck
Thanks for that "Acuarela Songs" Tip
Great Album with some beautiful songsIf u like Aroah u should try that Ep I bought
3 great songs by her + 3 songs by Nacho vegasGingersol – The train wreck is behind you
Last year’s album ‘Nothing stops moving’ made it into my top 10 album list of last year, and this one is even better. Obvious influences are Wilco and the Replacements. 15 beautiful songs (..only 40 minutes….), a beautiful production, what could one wish for more on the day before Christmas?ps. Sad Mafioso: my current favourites on the ‘Acuarela Songs’: Aroah, Dakota Suite, Paula Frazer, Sodastream and Virgil Shaw
i’ve been in san diego for the holidays and did some used cd hunting, quite successfully. one chain was having a sale, up to 75 percent off of their clearance discs, so i got a bunch of stuff for .75 to a 1.25. some of them are things i have already and bought another of to sell to a high paying record store up here in order to make a profit.
these are the cheap ones i found:
grant mclennan – watershed
lightning seeds – cloudcuckooland
scrawl – nature film
scrawl – velvet hammer
robyn hitchcock – gotta let this hen out (was $9)
pell mell – interstate
young fresh fellows – electric bird digest
chris stamey – fireworks
jps experience – elemental
the jazz butcher – condition blue
straitjacket fits – meltmiraculously, i found these used at the wherehouse, one of the worst damn record stores (chains anyway) on earth:
the clean – unknown country
peter holsapple – out of my way
jason and the scorchers – essential vol 1 – are you ready for the country (esp. excited about this one)Yeah hup!
Just picked up Radio Birdman: The Essential [1974-1978]. It rokkz my zokkz.

Howdy,
Here are the discs I picked up this weekend:
June of 44 – In the Fishtank
Bardo Pond – Lapsed
Silver Jews – Tennessee EP
The New Year – Newness Ends (ex-Bedhead)
Brainiac – Hissing Prigs in Static Coutureand a couple 7 inches:
Tobin Sprout/Moviola split
Eric Metronome – The Broken Seas
Tiara – What We’ve Become-Jamie (old Turnip Farm ‘kid’)
Jamie Clark-good to see someone mention Bardo Pond besides me!WOO HOO Bardo Pond are wicked!
Tommy Gun Angel is my fav song by them.
Buckingham Rabbit-Scrawl are great,I have Velvet Hammer,lots of good songs on it.Steve Albini produced it even though they don`t mention the producer.<blockquote><font>quote:</font><hr>Originally posted by Salamiguy:

They always roll through Ohio, play in some college town, and then I find out about it days later.
Scrawl might no longer be together? Their drummer moved to Sweden, and the lead lady (Marcy Mays) has been doing some solo piano performances set to silent movies. Interesting. I’ll refrain from making a Cat Power comparison.
I think Spoon, Scrawl and the Archers of Loaf need to get together and throw a big ‘Elektra had their heads up their asses’ party [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] All 3 were dropped almost immediately after their best albums were released.

Finally got my copy of Sparklehorse…Distorted Ghost EP…VERY PLEASING!!! Went for the morning paper and there it was…who knows how long its been in my mailbox but whooohooo nice way to start the day!!!
Glad to hear that Radio Birdman kicks some Maximum Ass!!!

Allison
MAXIMUM ASS!!!!

Jamie-thanks for the Scrawl info.Yeah,Elektra was crazy to drop those bands.Welcome to the boards,Jamie [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] cool to have you here.
Allison-hope you found some Silkworm albums,I had a hard time finding them around here.You might have to do the order thing,I`m thinking of doing the same thing with the albums by them I don`t have.Firewater is the album to get first,it`s an hour long,16 songs,the best album they`ve done yet.
I recommend the other albums too if you see them around.Maxini-Radio Birdman rawk! [img]images/smiles/icon_cool.gif[/img]
Lots of Silkworm releases found here : GEMM
Allison and Mattman, basically you both have some growing up to do [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
Oh and Mattman my friend, now that you’ve graduated from collage and can be expected to earn a decent living, be sure that you’ll be hearing from my lawyer any day now [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img]
Hey Culo, you came up with the name, not me, so who’s the mature one here is up for debate… [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
Wanna bring on your lawyer? If I’m gonna be making such a good living, be sure that I’ll have my own team of law machines awaiting your attempt. [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img]
Besides, I still think that your should grow a Watt stache like that. [img]images/smiles/icon_cool.gif[/img]
Hey Allison.. MISSED!?!!? It’s both wet AND freezing out there, and they say that another cold front is on its way down. If anything, you’ve hit us with a double whammy. [img]images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
