To quote the last word:

They're not albums you LISTEN to. They're albums you COLLECT.

Has anyone mentioned Glass yet:

Ah, I see I did 11-16-2014... BEFORE they went on BandCamp. MUCH easier to sample nowadays!

The new (old?) release is now online. It's kinda a hoot -- check it out!

Zappa was famous -- was he not? -- for never playing the same concert twice. His various bands could turn on a dime and go off into uncharted territory with a nod from Frank.

IIRC

All four were about shedding the "rockstar skin" which had become too tight. No growth without change.

What's the point of a band playing note-for-note? They might as well play a record onstage.

Besides... CREATIVE musicians get tired of playing the same exact thing every night. And I like my...

Well, before Greg bought the first Mellotron ever sold in Washington State (January 1973) his primary instrument was a set of Musser vibes. Too bad he had to trade them in to afford the 'Tron.... ...

Just to correct the record (so to speak) channel bleed won't give you binaural. It'll give you various levels of mono. Not. The. Same. Thing.

How about Blue Man Group?

I was gonna post this when the album is released in a day or two, but since this thread has been reactivated:


Well, if 1971 is “of greater interest,” how about 1969?

You're welcome, Forge. Jeff has A TON of unreleased music, and I've been encouraging him to get some of it out on the etherwaves before we're all dead. He is begrudgingly glacially-slowly...

Jeff Sherman just posted to Bandcamp their first professional recording, from 1971, when they were still very much under the influence of Soft Machine's first two albums: fuzz organ, long suites made...

I think a lot of us contributed, in small ways (I sent some bootlegs to Paul). Dunno if any of mine got included. Doesn't really matter.

The Muffins are LONG overdue for greater recognition.

I swore off PE because it had become too much of a timesuck. Too many people needed correcting :roll


Plus, I seem to recall the straw that broke the camel's back was that the administrators...

Hey all. Here's a website that some 17-year old kid created that provides ACCURATE, UP-TO-DATE information. Please do not reference inaccurate outdated information anymore.

Dana5140, my condolences, I cannot imagine.

Exactly right. Yamishogun, if the moderators of this board won't shut you down for spreading false information during a global crisis, I will at least call you out on it.

See post #315. The maximum known incubation window is 15.6 days, which is slightly more than two weeks. I'd heard 3 weeks on another newscast.

Sure, if you ignore the bias frequency and the RIAA curve.

Well, that's that. The governor today closed all gyms and health clubs (and restaurants and bars) effective midnight tonight.

Drat.

The reviews I read online before I bought indicated that the "air dry" feature was weak at best. Most users ended up drying off with paper anyway. So I went with the cheaper model that does not...

"Kill" actually isn't the proper term to use with a virus, since viruses aren't technically alive. "Inactivate" is the proper medical term.

Half of the Wuhan patients have now recovered and are symptom-free. The other half are still symptomatic and under treatment.

Hopefully my YMCA pool remains open, where I swim every morning. The CDC says chlorine kills the virus.

You can transmit when you are asymptomatic. It takes up to 3 weeks (but more commonly 4-5 days) between exposure and the start of symptoms. During the incubation period you are actually shedding...

Wow, I was just listening to "Heathen Earth" this morning because of the logo on the back cover: "Can the world be as sad as it seems?"

I think I used the wrong word when I said "superiority." What I really meant was "dominance" or "ascendance" or "market share" or something.

Yes, The No Speak releases were excellent, almost all of them -- as noted in posts #16 & 17. Bardens & Goodman & Haycock are particularly good suggestions!

Both seem to have rather well-deserved obscurity.

Good advice. Caring too much probably isn't good for me. I'll take myself into a self-quarantine now. Carry on.:oops

Something the US has failed to do -- even three months into the pandemic.
