Teenaged skateboarding son turned me onto Dry Cleaning:

Yes, Dry Cleaning is good for the ears.

And Arlo Parks is almost daily listening for me this year.

I wish that I had seen them live during that vacuum in the mid-70's when soft rock and disco were dominating the radio waves.

This week the business partner put on the band Hot Butter, essentially a 60s Moog-based electronic band, specifically for their song "Popcorn". Listening to a whole album, we came across the song "Space Walk". The album consisted of many covers, and we both thought that one may have been a cover despite finding no popular song of the same name resembling it. In the end, we assume it simply contains many elements common to many popular old songs. Nonetheless, if anyone would listen to this song and happen to know it is for sure a cover and what it covers, that would be great. The break down and following buildup are what first made me believe it was a cover.



And here's what I'm hearing now, after memory brought it forth upon listening to Nathy Peluso above.



Edit: Appreciating that video reminded me of this short one with image and sound beautiful to me:

Thanks. Hadn't seen that. Been a fan going some twenty five years now.

Waiting for Columbus remains one of the best live albums (composed or not) one can hear.

Liquid Soul was a Chicago acid jazz/funk band that put on great shows around the city about 20-25 years ago. One of my faves.

They have a new album, mostly live recordings from clubs. Three sample songs from the album.

One of the very last cassette tapes I (finally) disposed of was a live recording of Gang of Four, captured from a broadcast over my college campus radio station. I'm pretty sure one of my housemates was the recording engineer that night. It had been an amazing cathartic show and playing the crappy tape took me back to that night and that time. But the cassette deck had died and after years of holding onto it like some kind of talisman, I tossed it.

I saw something yesterday about a box set of GoF's early records, 77-81. It looked like a great listen, so I logged on to Tidal to see if it was available. It wasn't, at least not yet.

But what was there were fifteen live albums! Including this: https://listen.tidal.com/album/144165138

I listened to it for my morning workout today. Highly recommended!

Local independent eclectic radio station. Just played early Stevie Nicks. She was kind of something wasn’t she? Next up, Ezra Collective.

Gang of Four is why I bought & remanufactured slacks and dress shirts at thrift stores and wore the shirts buttoned to the neck. Found a Nehru collar suit jacket and I was set. Days of style and naïveté.
