 "end of the line" by travelling wilburys from volume one

been in west texas for the past month listening to pretty much nothing at all except the wilburys, morrissey solo records, and npr. i don't know if it will survive my return to "the world", but right now, this shit is my theme song. i've also been watching a lot of dennis hopper movies and whatever rambo movies i can find on the internet.

 "for every field there's a mole" by bonnie prince billy from lie down in the light

got deep into this brand new record over the holiday weekend and kept it playing in the rental car down to big sur, up to bolinas, and through the city. really liking the good-time mellow jams on here, the lyrics especially. "i am the king of infinite space" and the clarinet solo on this song are just right. i like my bbq slow cookin' and my musicians funny lookin'. i wish i was a mole in the ground

 "the farther away i am" by daryl hall from sacred songs

one of the 70's production credits for mr. fripp, along with roches, peter gabriel, etc. this song is classic frippy noodles with a tasteful layer of daryl whispers. fripp me a new one.

 "everything is food (demo)" by harry nilsson from the popeye demos

taken from a collection of demos for the soundtrack of perhaps altman's weirdest film. nice to hear this; all murky tape hiss and drum machine. sounds kind of like nilsson channeling daniel johnston. can't remember if this was sung by wimpy or pappy in the movie, but a little unwilling to watch it again to figure it out. food

 "little rage" by mice from forever almost scooter

came to Mice a few roundabout ways: working in an record store that was heavily involved with guided by voices releases, another ohio band that i suppose was really into Mice records, and reminded by an article in The Believer music issue last year about Bill Fox, the singer/guitarist who made a few amazing solo records than vanished. well, he still lives in cleveland, but doesn't ever want to play music again and kindly asked Believer to never print the article about him on the internet. anyway, this song rules it, in an Action "Rolled Gold" and Guided By Voices "Alien Lanes" kind-of way. anthem.

 "Tudo Que Voce Podia Ser" by milton nasciemento and lo borges from clube de esquina

putting this platter on the spinner this morning in celebration of the fact that i actually found this 2LP at amoeba berkeley of all places. been looking for this since sorcerer hipped me way back when. when that guitar comes in with the sickest lazy licks i get the shivers. i also realized that when i sing along to this record i am just making up gibberish as i can't speak portuguese. nice. uncle milty

 "all i do is cry" by the playboys from chicano soul: san antonio sound

still feeling the hidden sonic connections between some jamaican rocksteady and some texas 60's r&b jammers. toking from the same chalice. i love this production sound. fuzz and hiss crooners. wipe away my tears.

 "listening man" by the bees from octopus

lately, my default music for chilling or/working is some rocksteady or one of those chicano soul compilations. something about the vocal heavy harmonies and smooth grooving is relaxing and just makes everything seem mellow. sometimes i look over at my laptop and it's wearing a beret and smoking a spliff in a pee wee's playhouse Chairy kind of way. this song by this band kind of puts all those good vibes into one tune in a 21st century stylee. the 7 inch for this has a rad dubbed out version. wake and bake
