  10. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&...RkHePXO6GVYiBoA I've only been to San Francisco in the U.S. A great city with a lot of good music and a good vibe.
  11. I think all this fella's records had something with Polka in the title: "Shake, Rattle and Polka", "Living on Polka Time", "Rock'n'Polka", "Polka Your Troubles Away"and so on. The Tex Mex way: http://www.rounder.com/index.php?id=album....catalog_id=3838
  12. The answer for me is here:
  13. Many fine stories here. R.I.P. I was not acquainted with his music, but pre-ordered this new reissue today. Andrew Hill's here too:
  14. I am sorry for your loss. I have been there too in some periods, and to me it seems like a sign of an ongoing depression. This is an ordinary symptom: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anhedonia Talking from my own experience, it can help to distract the mind and give it some different input. Like going to a concert where you are taken to another setting, or maybe going on a travel to a place that you have not been before. Reading literature on travels(Ian Marchant, H V Morton and Pete McCarthy a.o.) also gave me some relief. The numbness can be the mind's way to relieve the pressure of the pain. Then to experience music that are evoking happy feelings normally, can instead evoke pain. This will get better when one starts to care about new things as time moves on, and music will be possible to connect to again.
  15. The best-selling chant album ever: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chant_%28album%29 A lof of information here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregorian_chant Some downloads are here: http://www.dovesong.com/MP3/MP3_Chant.asp http://www.gregorian-chant.info/

    New Solal

    It seems like a new release with the great Martial Solal is soon coming: And a new reissue from Godard films and other soundtracks Hot stuff!
  18. Now there's a Ra album that's worth reissuing. Omniverse Saturn 91379 Side A: The Place of Five Points West End Side of Magic City Dark Lights in a White Forest Side B: Omniverse Visitant of the Ninth Ultimate Ra-p; Michael Ray-tp; Marshall Allen-as; John Gilmore-ts; Danny Ray Thompson-bs; Richard Williams-b; Luqman Ali-d. West End Cafe, New York - September 13th, 1979 Would like to see that one too! An underrated session. This would also be a welcome reissue, Sun Ra's other album on Philly Jazz beside the classic "Lanquidity": Of Mythic Worlds http://www.the-temple.net/sunradisco/ofmythic.html The back cover of the "Of Mythic Worlds" LP has a photo of Sun Ra's entrance at the 1978 Ann Arbor Jazz Festival. He is seen strumming a metal sculpture. The actual event was more dramatic than the photo indicates, as he surprisingly emerged slowly out of the floor, on a theatrical stage lift, strumming the sculpture, as the Arkestra blasted at peak volume for several minutes before and during his ascension. Many in the sold-out audience of 2000 at Hill Auditorium were spontaneously screaming at the spectacle. Now, that's a groovy story! Would have enjoyed a lot to be there. The Arkestra is giving a week long performance on the ZXZV festival in September this year. That is in Tilburg, Netherlands: http://www.zxzw.nl/ http://www.myspace.com/zxzwtilburg Seems to be a party.

  23. Cow Cow Davenport had this great song with fine lyrics: "I`m gonna tell you in front so you won`t feel hurt behind" Sylvester Weaver had this pretty strange one: "Me and My Tapeworm" And Willie Blackwell recorded this classic for John Lomax some years ago: "Junior's a Jap Girl's Christmas for His Santa Claus" All have inspirational lyrics that must be heard.
