Wow, where did this guy come from? Canada apparently. From what little information I gathered around the Interweb, VanGaalen self-released an album, entitled Infiniheart, which was later picked up by Sub Pop for a 2005 re-release. Fast forward to Fall 2006: become a member or log in.
Modern Times has led me to rummaging through a lot of obscure Dylan stuff that I had been neglecting for some time. This thin wild mercury music is just too good not to share with you other Dylan freaks out there. Here is part one of two of the collection.

My introduction and love of sixties French Pop began a few years ago when a friend turned me on to the decadent sounds of Jacques Dutronc. His frenetic pop music followed me via iPod on a twelve day honeymoon trek through Greece and the outlying coastal islands, thus becoming the de facto soundtrack to the trip. Upon my return to the states I was hooked and needed a fix . . .

Dylan's latest album Modern Times was released a week ago today, and after nearly a week to digest I can honestly say I am enjoying the hell out of it. I tend to approach albums by rock & roll's "elder statesmen" with a wee bit of trepidation as you have to wonder just how many brilliant nuggets one artist can churn out after so many years.

With all the Dylan talk going on this week, I thought it would be nice to visit some of the artist's unreleased outtakes from the Drunkard Archives I have been enjoying over the years. Culled from the Freewheelin' album sessions (NYC, April-Nov 1962) , these outtakes provide an interesting insight and context for where Dylan was at the time compared . . .
