There are four (I believe) live cd sets from the 21st Century Schizoid Band - Italy, Barcelona, Japan, and New York. They're all pretty consistent and good. I almost think the quality of these performances of early Crimson material spurred Fripp into revisiting that stuff for the 2014-2021 touring King Crimson lineup. He was certainly far removed from that sound with previous 4 man lineup (Fripp/Belew/Gun/Mastelotto) that ended in about 2003.

I caught his show last year with Jaleel Shaw, Kris Davis, and Nasheet Waits, and thought it was fantastic. I haven't listened to many of his newest releases, but think he does well live, particularly considering his age and how active he remains.

He's the final scene in the 2024 Beach Boys documentary (on Disney), and includes the living 60's era members - David Marks, Al Jardine, Brian, Mike Love, and Bruce Johnston. I think this 2nd picture may have been from promoting the documentary, and includes Blondie Chaplin (and director Frank Marshall).

Can you donate them to a local library? Or alternately there's a Half Price Books store in Berkley (I looked online), and they will make offers on things you bring in to sell them (books, music, dvds, etc). They tend to lowball offers though, but they'd likely at least take them off your hands. Might be worth at least a phone call.

Mine as well! It's a relatively brief time here in the desert when there's a little pop of color to things. Then the long hot summer with muted colors and many plants going dormant for the summer. It's an interesting contrast to other places I've lived where things go more dormant in the winter months.

One of our prickly pear cactuses (I know the word is cacti but it sounds pretentious to me) is about to have a ton of blooms.

Well, I like it when I listen to it, but after it's over there's not much I recall musically. A few bits and pieces recall earlier SW music, even a little earlier PT. It's pleasant enough, and better than the last one (Harmony Codex) IMO. I've probably spun it 5-6 times now since it came out, maybe it will grow on me more over time. I'm still more a PT fan than a SW fan, though I'll always give him credit for exploring and not sitting still. -

Steven Wilson - The Overview -
We called it Pennsyltucky when we lived outside of Philly. Outside of the Philly & Pitt areas it's really a very large rural state. One thing I'll say about the Amish in Lancaster area is that they have terrible puppy mills. They don't consider dogs to have souls, and they overbreed them in terrible conditions, and sell them to the "English" as they call the rest of Americans. So for a group of people that don't interact with the outside world, they eagerly sell unhealthy puppies to them, for profit. Most of these puppies have health issues as they grow up, and have shorter lifespans than typical dogs. https://woundedpawproject.org/the-amish-community-and-puppy-mills/

What live music are you going to see tonight?
Aggie87 replied to mikeweil's topic in Live Shows & Festivals
Caught The Bad Plus last night in Phoenix. It was a fine show, mostly stuff from their most recent album, Complex Emotions. I was more familiar with the music from their 3-man lineup with Ethan Iverson, but after he (and later Orrin Evans) left, they added Chris Speed on reeds and Ben Monder on guitar. I was familiar with Monder's older albums, but was curious to see him in a group like this, and he didn't disappoint. Speed is a remarkable sax (and clarinet) player. I'll have to check out further work of his. -

I still post here occasionally, but it's mostly in the "what rock are you listening to" and the photo threads. I got tired of being agitated by a few others here, some of whom are still here and some who seem to have moved on. I'm sure I did my share of agitating others as well. But many of the people here that I have truly enjoyed engaging with have become Facebook friends, and the interactions have continued there. And many of those I've ended up meeting in person over the years. I'm happy about that most of all.
