"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

Best Rolnick story: that time Neil and I convinced Superjoint Ritual to cover "WakeUp" at a show in New Orleans. They only got about half way through it before giving up.

I'd love to hear even attempts to cover "Wakeup" live. Kudos to Superjoint for trying. A few months ago, didn't JA try MIXING the Dead to recreate the effect, approximately?

Second best Rolnick story: that time WFMU got Neil Sedaka to drop leaflets of the "WakeUp" lyrics over Albuquerque from a hot air balloon. I'm not sure why they got Sedaka, maybe JA can fill us in on the reasoning there. Anyway the wind wasn't what was forecast, and let's just say we lost Sedaka for a few days.

Woke up 430 am to take a walk in the snow. I felt endorphins surge. 1.8 miles. Will work my way up to 2.5, then 3 then 4 miles. I love walking. Foodman is a bit abstract but akin to Remain In Light by Talking Heads passages...I like later Buttonhole Surfers but cannot stand noisy early stuff.

Was blown away by this G List last week, John. Great discovery. Have you noticed the similarity to some of Robert Wyatt's work ("End of an Ear", even some of the later albums, and that Centipede project)?

Hey, my 15 year old son turned me onto Mr. Bungle California album. Wow!
The New Barbarians are pretty futuristic. It reminds me of the Zik Zak ad in Max Headroom for some reason. The TV show with a 70 year old punk guy with a mohawk.

This guy's recipe is from the mid 1800's, a Polish recipe. Wow. It is the BEST kiełbasa outside of Poland I have ever had. He refuses to sell to us directly, I have to go through this guy i know. I feel like it's 1985 and I'm trying to buy weed again.
