"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.)

@steveo - An equally old-fashioned greeting might be 'Wotcha'. Kids used to say it all the time in the 70s, but few do today sadly.

Wotcha Handy. Yes, like the Israelites, I have been delivered from bondage. And man, t'was a cruel bondage indeed. (Will reply to your DM today as well).

I, like the angels, rejoice at your delivery, David! John and Snoochie and I managed to keep the lights on for you.

@Handy - It's good to know that the Crew are keeping a welcome in the hillside. I had to be out of London, at the arse-end of a distant industrial estate, in the pouring rain. I got back to the station thinking 'I must never leave the radio-side again'. Ever. Ever.

I had a JPEG of a poster tied to a lampost that said 'Have you seen this cat?' with a picture of Miles Davis on it ('Answers to the name Miles'). V amusing, thought I. My friend Clive suggested that he'd been seen on the corner, which was a goodly reposte.

WoodsOfNH:

@John Allen, I sometimes wish I'd read none of the hype. By the time I got to The Epic, I was expecting my head to be blown clean off. Instead, it sounded to me like stuff I'd heard from Pharoah Sanders, Ayler, etc. Still, I'm glad he's got people excited. Always a good thing.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:57am
David (in London):

@WoodsofNH - I second that emotion. I had exactly the same experience after a friend of mine had bigged it up so massively. But, as you say, glad people are listening to it.

The question remains though, will you have a 70s hard rock showdown/throwdown with Clay next week? I guess you could go deep into 70s JAZZrock...
  11:17am
P-90:

@Woods of NH: I had the opposite experience, I first heard parts of The Epic when Scott McDowell played it on FMU, when it was brand new, and having read no hype and with no expectations, I was a bit blown away by it. So: yeah, seeing or hearing a lot of hype before experiencing a record, movie, or whatever can change that experience, one tends to compare it to the threshold of enthusiasm it has inspired in other folks, and it may never seem worthy of the hype...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:19am

@P-90. Right. I'm also guess that if I had a chance to see him live I'd totally dig it.
