7/4

Anyone else? .

Lenny Kaye grew up in the same town as me, but he was probably gone by the time I got there. .

Was that music? I thought it was company goons beating the sh*t out of him as he left the room. You know what the tune is?

Cool...nice sign off music too (top). .

Most of the albums on Brian Eno's Obscure label. In 1975, Brian Eno set up the Obscure Label. Its purpose was to provide a venue for experimental music, and make it more known and accessible to the public at large. By associating his name with it, and acting as producer of all ten releases, he enabled hitherto virtually unknown composers to enjoy a larger possible audience. Among those who he rescued from obscurity (pun intended) were Harold Budd, Michael Nyman, the Penguin Cafe Orchestra, and Gavin Bryars. Obscure No.1 Gavin Bryars, "The Sinking of the Titanic", 1975. Obscure No.2 Christopher Hobbs, John Adams, and Gavin Bryars, "Ensemble Pieces", 1975. (some vocals by Eno) Obscure No.3 Brian Eno, "Discreet Music", 1975. Obscure No.4 David Toop and Max Eastley, "New and Rediscovered Musical Instruments", 1975. Obscure No.5 Jan Steele and John Cage, "Voices and Instruments', 1976. Obscure No.6 Michael Nyman, "Decay Music", 1976. Obscure No.7 Penguin Cafe Orchestra, "Music from the Penguin Cafe", 1976. Obscure No.8 John White and Gavin Bryars, "Machine Music", 1978. (bottle and electric guitars by Eno) Obscure No.9 Tom Phillips, Gavin Bryars and Fred Orton, "Irma - An Opera", 1978. Obscure No.10 Harold Budd, "The Pavillion of Dreams", 1978. I have the grey ones on CD. I have the Cage & Ensemble Pieces on Vinyl, but I've never heard the others.

Happy Birthday Rod!

S h a p e T e s t . c o m this sounds like me: Diagnostic Overview: Your responses indicate you're damn near normal. Do you have any idea of how rare that is? Maybe you need to lower your standards and pick up some bad habits or something. People like you are annoying as hell to the rest of us. People who answer as you did have a 1 in 3 chance of being a convicted felon. (72 times higher than normal.) Long-Term Prognosis: Your wild mood swings and fanatical belief in the Teletubbies will cause you trouble in life, the same way ice "caused trouble" for the Titanic. Don't feel bad- lots of worthless, messed-up people have similar problems, and you'll probably marry one. You're the kind of person that keeps divorce attorneys and homicide detectives in business. Additional Fears: You're also afraid of libraries, sunlight, and Pee Wee Herman. This is silly- when was the last time Pee Wee Herman caused you any harm?

A deranged cook at a Chinese restaurant attacks you violently with a meat cleaver after you complain about your meal. .

Yeah, I'm sure that's the point...for anyone that doesn't recognize Giger, these images might help: Oh yeah...they're classic. Who can forget Work 219: Landscape XX? You post a link to a graphic Shawn, I'm not gonna do it. The guitars look a cooler than most guitars with graphics on 'em.

.

Maybe someone could recommend some internet porn that's a little more interesting? PM sent. Haven't gotten it yet. The anticipation is unbearable. Or maybe that's your point. Sorry Larry, I thought it was just 7/4 looking for recommendations. No, that's OK. I'm quite fine with the quality of the porn here, thank you. No complaints from me.

they look like science fiction! .

I saw that spam. Did the link go anywhere? I didn't try it, but it looked like all that was there was http://

from the Messiaen thread: ...and now check this out: Henry Cow on MySpace.

Not me...

He's doing a show with Billy Joel in NYC too. .

...and a nice history lesson! Here's the Trouser Press on Fred Frith and Henry Cow.

New Music Project Announced Paul Amlehn - Texts, Vocals Robert Fripp - Guitar, Soundscapes Joan Jeanrenaud - Cello, Electronics Jim White - Drums, Percussion .

In what sense? I saw it when it came out, so I associate it with my first experiences with his music. It's one of those movies that I saw a couple of times with friends...we all got high and went to the movies. Maybe it's a classic like the Rocky Horror Picture Show. As an album, Koyaanisqatsi is (for me) a companion to GlassWorks. I think it was right about that time when I gave up on him for about 15 years.

I owned a couple of those and sold them 20 years ago cheap...I didn't know what I had! That's pretty much it. I still try to keep track of what he's up to, even if I don't listen to it all.

I like Koyaanisqatsi, I guess I listen to it about once every 5 years. I wouldn't say I like everything he's done. edit: I do think the film is a classic. .

Hi-Ho, Hi- Huh? Philip Glass Does Disney could be uh oh...

There's an album I'd like to hear in 5.1. Separating the gtr and stick parts after all these years would be pretty cool.
