I had never really listening to them before eccept for a few songs, but knew of them though Touch and Go records. Pretty good stuff though, makes me think of Brainiac, vocals mostly.

acousticrock87 07.14.2008 10:22 PM


 


Awesome. Includes an entire song by just Cotton Casino.

Savage Clone 07.14.2008 10:28 PM

I have that, but as a set of three short CD EPs, the kind where the info part of the disc is only 3" in diameter with the reast being clear. They each have the same 3D cover. Nice stuff; I particularly like "Ziggy Stardust Raga."

acousticrock87 07.15.2008 12:31 AM

Yeah this is a reissue of the EPs. It says 2008 on it, so at first I thought it was new and got excited that Casino was back.

Death & the Maiden 07.15.2008 12:34 AM

I didn't buy these, I borrowed them from someone:
Ed Kuepper - "Everybody's Got To", "Character Assassination", "A King in the Kindness Room" and "Outtakes, Castaways, Pirate Women and Takeaways"

It was sheer luck. I was browsing on Volcanic Tongue and thought, "Let's see what they've got in the 'rarities' section"... and there it was :) :) :) :) . I thought I had bought it off a guy on Gemm once, but he never sent it, claiming that he couldn't find it in his box of stuff that he was selling.

Death & the Maiden 07.17.2008 02:08 AM

uhler 07.17.2008 02:17 AM

i really wanted to get the first teenage fanclub record.

noisereductions 07.17.2008 07:12 AM

Nels Cline's INTERSTELLAR REVISITED Coltrane album. Really really intense and good.

viewtiful_alan 07.17.2008 05:24 PM

Yesterday saw two iffy if affordable purchases:

 

Brand new, sealed, and on clearance at target for 3.69 due to overstocking. I've liked what I've heard of him so I figured what the hell.

 

Found it at half price books, and being a huge Dylan fan, went ahead and picked it up.

_slavo_ 07.18.2008 06:21 AM

About 10 minutes ago:

 


I obviously have a soft spot for this old Scouser.

The Earl Of Slander 07.18.2008 07:46 AM

Birchville Cat Motel - Gunpowder Temple of Heaven

 


Oren Ambarchi - Stacte Motors

The Earl Of Slander 07.18.2008 07:47 AM

And on the same day I went to a Keiji Haino gig and couldn't resist the insanely cheap merch store, so I bought:

The 21st Centuary Hard-y Guide-y Man

 


Fushitsusha - PSF 15/16

 



So now I'm as happy as I am poor.

On order / pre-order from various places:

Peter Wright - Burning A Hole In The Sun 3" CDR
Hakobune - Melting Reminiscence 3" CDR
Gareth Hardwick & Taiga Remains - Split 10"
Lee Ranaldo - Countless Centuries Fled Into The Distance Lke So Many Storms 12"
Oren Ambarchi - A Final Kiss On Poisoned Cheeks 12"

The Earl Of Slander 07.18.2008 10:54 AM

Yeah I haven't been especially impressed either, but was hoping it would grow on me. Maybe a bad choice for my first foray into their vast discography, but I was suckered by a pretty sound sample and references to Satie.

Same here, I did receive a shipping confirmation e-mail, so they should be on their way. I'm anxious to hear them. Ambarchi's, In The Pendulum's Embrace is great. I highly recommend it.

greedrex 07.18.2008 12:36 PM

Oren Ambarchi.... stellar

I'll do some searching for these recommendations. Thanks!

EDIT: I'm going through Toral's discography on his site, & noticed that he collaborated w/ Lee on Amarillo Ramp. I did not know that.

BTW, just received my, A Final Kiss On Poisoned Cheeks 12" in the mail. I'll be listening to it here in a few.

& Stevie Wonder said as well. I'll most certainly pick those up. Can never say no to the timeless classics. Thanks!

greedrex 07.18.2008 02:56 PM

come back and tell us what you thought about these two, but honestly you can't go wrong here especially knwing that you listen to Ambarchi.
Just check these two beauties of artwork. They tell it all:
 


 


Toral and lee are very releated and good friends. he processed, miwed and mastered the long track on amarillo ramp and i know they did a couple more things togetehr live or what not, ask the walking encyclopedia team.

Rob Instigator 07.18.2008 03:08 PM

 

vinyl, double 180g clear vinyl.

I also bought a buttload of 7 inch singles and this CD boot of the Youth
 

the listing on the discography says Bootleg CD recorded live April 7th, 1996 @ Phillipshalle in Dusseldorf, Germany. Probably the most infamous Sonic Youth bootleg show, also appearing on "Easter" and "Hallucinogenic Preserve".

this one's really good

viewtiful_alan 07.18.2008 03:28 PM

How expensive is it?
Bootlegs tend to not be very money friendly.. : (

Rob Instigator 07.18.2008 03:46 PM

Well I've only had it long enough to listen to the first disc once through, but so far it's pretty fucking incredible. It's all of the 7 inches he ever released (until the set came out obviously), including splits, plus a whole load of stuff that was planned for 7 inch release never came out. Spans pretty much all of his styles, from fucked up blues deconstructions to achingly beautiful guitar cries. Lovely, although due to the original format they’re mostly shorter pieces. The five tracks from the Table of the Elements "Five Points" release are especially amazing.

greedrex 07.19.2008 03:10 AM

mmmm sounds really cool

blunderbuss 07.19.2008 04:45 AM

Mamoru Narita
The Raven On The Water Bridge
Subjective Spirit Sound SSS-113
CD-R

Debut solo release for Narita, drummer with recent Tokyo Flashback stars Retolt Mandala. The Raven... is a set of clattering solo percussive lift-offs that combine tonal clusters of bells and skin with threads of slowly-evolving string drones that work to raise the whole deal to the kinda tranced out-of-body heights that sound much more exactingly keyed to the experience of shamanic states than the endless parade of indie bellshakers with world music pyjamas and saxophones engaged in "mystic" improvisations. This one arrives in the zone right from the get-go and moves deeper with every track. If you dig Boredoms and Amon Duul as much as Frank Perry and Milford Graves then yr a fucking champ. Limited edition release on this great Japanese underground imprint.

Sonic Youth 37 07.20.2008 12:08 AM
