Dewey Redman "Ear of the Behearer"

"Career In Rock" by Volcano Suns. I laugh whenever I think of that album title.

I always thought that that TLC's "Ooooooohhh... On the TLC Tip" was very funny as well, but for completely different reasons.

John Fahey Volume 2 "Death Chants, Breakdowns, & Military Waltzes."


Totally off topic (but I know there’s a few other Fahey keeners here): I just learned lore has it that Fahey was accepted into grad studies at UCLA on the strength of his heckling of a bluegrass musician at the Berkeley Volk Festi-hell.. Ah, the sixties.

i can't stand the band one bit, but there's an album by the ordinary boys entitled "over the counter culture". for some reason i just really like it; it seems to works on so many different levels.
so what do people think about self-titled albums? yay / nay?

It's also the best film ever shot.

mogwai - mogwai young team
a reference to wee neddy gangs in central scotland.
talk about a joke going too far. heheh. Reminds you of wee guys stabbing each other because they live in a different scheme about half a mile away.

Come to think of it, "Come On Die Young" ranks way up there. What a beautiful clash of sound and meaning. It's perfect. What's the allusion to? - I didn't know the "Young Team" one.

Peter Brotzmann, Harry Miller, Louis Moholo - "The Nearer the Bone, the Sweeter the Meat"

these come to mind:

god hates us all - slayer
grande rock - hellacopters
music is rotted one note - squarepusher (the sleeve too, is great)
mingus ah um

and many more...
