Stevie Wonder :: @ Rainbow Theatre – London, 01/31/74

Live Upload Series Stevie WonderPosted on

There are very few artists who had album runs like the one Stevie Wonder pulled off in the '70s (the Rolling Stones come immediately to mind). The following set, from January of 1974, finds the artist in the midst of a creative high while touring the UK. Recorded after Innervisons and prior to Fulfillingness' First Finale . . .

A Christmas Gift for You from Phil Spector

Holiday Phil SpectorPosted on

If you have a window near, go ahead and look outside. Chances are, there are some Christmas lights up somewhere within view. In the coming week, you'll probably frantically brave mall crowds and horrific parking lot jams for last-minute gifts, wondering why it is that you avoid the mall for an entire year only to finally cave when it's impossibly chaotic, deafeningly loud and smells something like garland draped across a junior-high locker room. Nearly 50 percent of you have already seen It's A Wonderful Life this month, and roughly 92 percent . . .

Le Onda Pesada De Ernan Roch Con Las Voces Frescas

Ernan RochPosted on

No, that isn't a photo of Justin Long, that is Ernan Roch. I have WFMU to thank for my original introduction to his LP, Le Onda Pesada De Ernan Roch Con Las Voces Frescas, and these gents for the recent reminder. An English language Mexican psych album from 1971, this one is heavy on the south of the border fuzz---and if "The Train" hasn't been comped yet, I'm sure it is only . . .

Julian Lynch :: Just Enough

Julian LynchPosted on

Along with a considerable amount of music, my 'songs of 2010' list was capsized a little while back in an epic hard drive failure. Remember kids, back your shit up. So while you won't find a list proper this year, I do want to highlight some favorites including the below; Julian Lynch's "Just Enough," off his LP, Mare

The Beatles :: Christmas Singles Club, 1963-1969

Holiday The BeatlesPosted on

From 1963 to 1969 the Beatles issued limited edition Christmas fan-club singles on 7 inch flexi-discs. All very relaxed and off the cuff, it's interesting to note how the cover art changed, along with the music, as the sixties rolled along. Download and details after the jump....

William Sheller :: Excitissimo 7″ (France, 1969)

William ShellerPosted on

Taken from the soundtrack to Gérard Pirî¨s' 1969 French-Italian drama Erotissimo, this guitar-driven psych nugget has recently re-instated itself into my DJ sets. At a quick, no nonsense, 1 minute and 14 seconds the track rips through the PA at a propulsive clip. Excitissimo.

Milton Nascimento/Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy :: Cravo î‰ Canela

Milton Nascimento Will OldhamPosted on

Revisiting Will Oldham and Tortoise's 2006 collaboration, The Brave And The Bold, last week spawned some interesting offline chatter about what it means to cover an artist. While much of the discussion was centered around familiar positions and attitudes, the consensus was (not surprisingly) that most everyone tends to prefer an interesting re-interpretation to a more catholic version of the source material.

David T. Walker :: Lay Lady Lay/Plum Happy 1970

David T. WalkerPosted on

In the hands of David T. Walker, "Lay Lady Lay," a cornerstone of Dylan's Nashville Skyline, slides into a jazzy, languid, space residing somewhere just shy of early 70s porn groove and after-midnight lounge. I use neither descriptor as pejorative. Found on the Tulsa-born session guitarists 1970 solo joint, Plum Happy, the track, while devoid of the original's intent, works on the same level as contemporary George Benson's become a member or log in.
