Unstuck in time, The Avant Ghetto wanders through heavy folk, pastoral noise, spiritual rock, harsh jazz and other dimly lit corners of the universe.

Indeed. I've been waiting for months to do a 'real time' thing...On a break from work and finally able to do it live...sometimes, these jobs can be a real inconvenience! | |

Jeff, you seriously need to get with the people at the Sirius Grateful Dead Channel. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE that station, but they are hit and miss whereas your show always features the absolute BEST of the Dead. |

The GD channel plays some great stuff...but a lot of times they seem to just throw in studio tracks picked at random. I've heard "France" "Good Lovin" and "Money Money" more than once in the past couple weeks! (And I don't listen that often) | |

Well, unfortunately for some of the stations they DO have live DJs, where I think that just playing music with no talking would be great. Then there are some stations that have some DJs who provide excellent insight into the music. The Grateful Dead Channel is one of the best channels there, and they do play like three whole concerts per day, but some of the selections in between make me ask "was that really the version someone wanted to play?" like the whole thing is just on shuffle. It could use a little guidance. |

![]() My experience with the GD channel is very limited. Mostly if I rent a car that has satellite |

Speaking of GD, I drove up from NoVa today listening to Grayfolded. It's awesome but I forgot about Cease Tone Beam and such | |

AdamFromOldeKenzo:
(not really) it's good to see a dumb man die in a murder ballad |
Mon. 5/15/17 1:16am
Dean:
Ah, right, PV. Hard to argue. I inclined toward Cosmic Jokers, though, and of course ART. Past tense, 'cuz I sold all that stuff decades ago, not very smartly. | |

And weirdly I most miss the Epitaph. They were, in a way, the (Workingman's) Dead of Krautrock. | |

![]() Actually saw a copy of "Outside the Law" today in the bins of a shop i visited. A little too poppy for me |
Mon. 5/15/17 1:21am
Dean:
Well, shoot. Coulda been mine. My pop filter is a bit tattered. Can't stomach ABBA, love Alessi Bros. | |

'Fresh Air'...the best cut off that Epitaph LP for my money....? | |

Wow. Taussig and Ochs are playing up the street from where I live a couple miles in a record store at the end of the month. | |

Mon. 5/15/17 2:47am
Dean:
Or so it seems. Announcement reads, "Starting at 2PM Tompkins Square presents folk guitarists Harry Taussig & Max Ochs. They were both featured on a (now vintage) sampler LP, 'Contemporary Guitar - Spring '67', along side John Fahey, Robbie Basho, and Bukka White." | |
Mon. 5/15/17 2:48am
Dean:
It's free and, anyway, I'm at the store many weekends to shop. | |
Mon. 5/15/17 2:51am
Dean:
They're also appearing nearby in town at a cozy little venue. This'll be fun. | |

Mon. 5/15/17 2:53am

Berkeley's new Back Room (the cozy venue) and El Cerritos' Down Home Records (the free show) | |

http://backroommusic.com/events-1/2017/5/28/harry-taussig-max-ochs Down Home doesn't show the event on its website. Went out in email a couple days ago. | |
