SIR LANCELOT PRATT:

as this track started had the nasty feeling that you were playing Sad Cafe, now convinced this is not the case but some great art damaged alternative rock.
  12:37pm
MrFab:

Sir Lance, I believe that would be due to a lack of light, a condition of primitive video. it need lots of light.

The Residents were very entertaining, as weird and surreal as you would expect - no more eyeballs head, tho. The Singing Resident (now calling himself "Randy") spent much of the show in between-song monlogues that were quite funny at times, giving a history of the band that mixed facts with their usual mythologizing.
Mucially, it was very stripped down - perhaps a bit too much so.
Avatar 12:40pm
Carmichael:

Hey Tony, just for accuracy's sake that Machine Gun track was 1977.

MrFab:

(I meant 'Musically', not Mucially.)

  12:46pm

Well, as it was a 40th anniversary show, they did play a lot of oldies, even their first record "Santa Dog." And a Snakefinger song 'The Man in the Dark Sedan", in an unexpectedly moving, sincere tribute.

First residents I ever heard was Eskimo, so that one's got my heart. But "meet the.." and "not available" are infinite classics. Isn't that "randy" guy the only founding member left? Or did I hear that somewhere...

@Rev Turnip: I think there are only two original Rez left. The one who's now Randy and one that I am quite sure doesn't partake in any touring/performance stuff. Pretty sure my friend and I spotted the two other musicians out of 'uniform' and assisting with break-down after the show. They're quite young.

I have heard that one of the Residents' early defectors went on to be in Freshly Wrapped Candies. It sounds plausible, to my ears.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:01pm
Rich in Washington:

I don't think so. The Portland connection was friend, Bill R, who was a DJ in the mid-70s. I interviewed Homer Flynn last week and he confirmed that KBOO was the first station to play The Residents.
Bill did a wonderfully weird show called Radio Lab until about '79 or so. He's also responsible for some pretty cool YouTube videos showing the early Rez' studio, etc...

Hard to believe this is the power-pop band Shoes ... but it is.

Is this an Illinois-themed set, Tony?

Tony Coulter:

Could be, accidentally -- I'm not very state-conscious. Country-conscious, yes; state-conscious, no.

Carmichael:

The 1st 2 were from IL, but I believe Ms. Peacock is a Brooklynite.

SIR LANCELOT PRATT:

Tony,
looks like you have been checking out lots of funky hip hop labels like Stones Throw, Numero, and the breakbeat friendly lp by Annette Peacock.

Could it be you are now digging a bit of cool soul funk?
Avatar 2:51pm
Tony Coulter:

I've always liked a bit of that in the mix -- though as for Stones Throw and Numero I've only dipped a pinky toe into their funk stuff -- they release other flavors as well.
Avatar 2:53pm
SIR LANCELOT PRATT:

both labels are excellent and present top quality material, expertly remastered. Stuff that was slept on at the time of its original release.

Tony Coulter:

Thanks for listening and commenting, everybody. See you next time for the first marathon shift. If I don't say so myself, my premium will really be something special this year.

I found an original copy of that Annette Peacock a few years ago in a charity shop in Glasgow, but left it in the pub! Kick myself for that often.
