Is Spiderland my favorite album of the '90s? That's tough...I can't say for sure, but it's pretty damn close. It still resonates with me as much as it did at the time of initial release. I won't go into all the bands Slint influenced over the past 15+ years as it's obvious once you hear the music. Slint . . .

Touring The Blogroll :: Some News

Currituck County :: Channeling John Fahey

Country, folk, raga, jazz, and bluegrass. All these genres and more play out and interweave in Kevin Barker's wanderlust album Ghost Man on First. This first installment in the Ghost Man trilogy is challenging to say the least, but rewarding under the right circumstances. Fans of free-form neo-folk should dig, i.e. fans of Animal Collective, Bright Black Morning Light, etc.

Live Upload Series III :: The Meters – 1977

Nobody..and I mean nobody funks it up like The Meters did in their prime. Shit-hot grooves. I have collected a number of shows from the band's '70s hey-day, and this is one of my favorites. Culled from a 1977 New Orleans Live radio broadcast -- complete with a smokey-voiced DJ popping in and out during the duration of the show. Great banter from the band too. Several times throughout the show Art Neville speaks directly to the greater New Orleans radio audience . . .
