  1. I also like them a lot. And it was actually through a Chewy comment I discovered them.
  2. I loved IG Culture in the early 2000s and now. And everything Broken Beat. And I see this is on Kindred Spirits, a very interesting label then and now out of Netherlands. Very nice video.
  3. The exact same. So I don't know why I'm now a newbie, plus I lost the status I had before. But the move to the new format has been awesome, with limitations that existed before disappearing automatically. Now everything loads faster.
  4. A very great set. And one in which I also especially like Goodman. And Hampton.
  5. What I see disturbing in all of that is that music making like it used to be known will soon be a thing of the past. Perhaps not for us. But for the generations following us. They already love their music Autotuned and the artists like the artificiality of it above all else. So this is already in place. And the music from the 20s to the 90s (of the XX Century and before) is only valued by a couple of mammoths like us. Very good the article in Pitchfork, which has been a source for me since the late 2000s. Specially its follow-up called Will AI lead to new creative frontiers, or take the pleasure out of music? That article is really good.
  6. That's two I also like a lot. And have in a Conn edition. 10" series IIRC. From when I had that series 5000 craze back when.
  7. That's one I would be interested in too. Was lucky enough to snatch Vol. 2, but couldn't find a copy of the first box, which covers I believe 1970-75. And since it's from 2012, I guess, I was hoping it might get reissued in 2022.
  8. Yes Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards were great. Separately or together. I still remember Nile Rodgers' participation in Bowie's Let's dance. Or more recently with Daft Punk
  9. That's the ones I also know mainly. They were Madchester, weren't they? About the other ones I don't know nearly nothing. And from the 80s is from when I know them too.
  10. Very good cover! With that crazed clown. But what Chamaleons were this? The British or the American? And I'm not even sure there are two. Not sure about the Americans.
  11. I've read different things about this too. Like the appreciation of CDs. Or the appeal to millenials of everything 1999 or Y2K. Like the Razor Motorola Flip-Phone.
  12. Yes, I was worried too. It seemed impossible to contact the site. And I always got the same Timeout error after trying several times. But it seems to be solved now.
  13. This is one of their strongest albums. Though my favorites are Exile on Main Street, Sticky Fingers and Beggars Banquet. I had it on vinyl and now as a mini-LP. Aftermath, I mean.
  14. Got it! Along with two other collections from the same series about Muddy Waters and Memphis Slim, and Lightnin Hopkins, Brownie McGhee, Sonny Terry and Big Joe Williams. Very good, though I still haven't listened to the other two. The T-Bone Walker alone is 3 CDs. And the Mabern must be something else. I once saw him in a jazz cellar here in town accompanying the Eric Alexander Quartet.
  15. After finishing Simon Reynolds book on post-punk today I started this, which collects all of the Bandini novels by John Fante. What is this? It reminds me of that great Iggy Pop song, inspired I think by his many train travels with Bowie in the late 70s. I listened to it once in the 80s on a walkman on a train blasting through Europe. And it was the perfect soundtrack. I remember it very vividly.
  16. This is the exact same edition I'm going for. When it's released.
  17. Thanks. Will seek it out. Oh, wait. I think I saw a part of this, in which Grissom and Paul Reed Smith talk
  18. I just found out there is a PRS model called DGT, for David Grissom Tremolo, developed between him and Reed. I just don't know when.
  19. Yes, do that. I have it on mp3 and it's awesome. I wish there was a CD release to update my non-existent physical release.
  20. I remember a boxset called Chet in Paris, but not as far back as the late 80s. More like the mid 2000s. And it was released by Universal. So maybe it was based on that old boxset. Or was a reissue.
  21. I don't know why they said it. Maybe because all his great albums are BN. And only some on other labels.
