The seven inches we got Monday is being washed away by rain. All to be replaced by arctic temps and more white stuff this evening. (It's all my fault 'cause I put away the snow shovels during that 65°F day last Friday. Sorry!) | |

Drummer Some:
If you open that website for Reel Recordings. you will hear that crazy electronic flourish that accidentally interrupted that last song. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 10:23am
Rey:

|
Fri. 2/25/11 10:32am
Drummer Some:
That track,"Mathar," was recorded at the same session as the Dave Pike cut I just played. You could hear elements of Mathar in it for sure. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 10:34am
Drummer Some:

i'm guessing I missed 'the saddest sequence of soul bawlers' I'll ever hear.....guess I'll have to hit the archives later. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 10:47am
Brian in UK:
Hold your water david, it's still to come we're all waiting with baited trousers. | |
|

jill:
'...because when i wear trousers, i make sure to affix bait onto 'em. Makes for fun nibbles. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 10:52am
Hugo:
One thing about this stream is that it is stronger and clearer than the main WFMU stream. How come? | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 10:53am
Brian in UK:
This comes from Appletree Theatre's 'Playback. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 10:54am
Drummer Some:
Hugo, I haven't a clue why this stream sounds better. Sure makes me smile though. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:03am
Brian in UK:

|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:03am
glenn:
a quick question, appropos of nothing, - can anyone recommend a good otis rush compilation / box set? | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:04am
Drummer Some:
I prefer to cut them open with a two-person crosscut saw and then count the rings. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:06am
Brian in UK:
Vinyl is final | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:08am
Hugo:
Vinyl is a fine thing. I keep imagining that it might outlast the cd, if it comes to that ... | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:09am
glenn:
i have that one. i want more. more, i say. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:10am
Brian in UK:
Was there ever a worse container for holding recorded music than the crystal case? I hate them with a purple passion. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:11am
glenn:
i agree with brian. jewel cases blow dead bears. | |

brain: 8-tracks are still the worst. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:17am
annie:
i will donate this year mr drummer!! | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:19am
Brian in UK:
@david thanks for the upgrade! I think that 8-tracks go without saying. They were however something solid to hold & a resounding clunk when loaded. The 8-track not the owner. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:19am
annie:
i'll actually have a paying job this spring.. soon.. | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:19am

|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:33am
Brian in UK:
Are we heading for Overton Vertis country, Doug? | |
|
Fri. 2/25/11 11:33am
