rec of the day: BILL NACE "both" (drag city LP) finally got a copy of this, which is -- shockingly -- nace's first full solo LP. beautiful cover art by daniel higgs & crazed machine guitar rounds that make me think of dilloway's hardest mantras. way to go!

rec of the day: SANDY BULL "still valentines day 1969" (no quarter 2LP) vinylization of this cool set recorded by this troubled string maestro during the long gap between his third and fourth LPs. messy and great.

rec of the day: GERYCZ/POWERS/ROLIN "lamplighter" (american dreams LP) superb trio improv session, with drums added to guitar and hammered dulcimer. the instrumental textures go from psych-folk form-feels to sheer free-grunt. oh yeah!

RIP "SPIDER" JOHN KOERNER, who made folk music rock like crazy. he was a monster guitarist & singer, as well as a hell of a nice guy. i guess now koerner, ray & glover are reunited. and oh yeah, fuck frat boys.

we got zoom bombed yesterday during our talk about stuart swezey's "desolation center" film. pretty funny for some chucklehead to think they could use sound & image to rattle people who paid GOOD MONEY to go see throbbing gristle & spk. ha.

rec of the day: RYAN DAVIS & THE ROADHOUSE BAND "dancing on the edge" (sophomore lounge 2LP) been out a bit, but ryan davis's great debut as a titular band leader is one of the finest beard rock slabs of the century. bring out the bourbon and settle in.
