I saw them a long time ago and they were a real good live band.  Probably better live them some termbo bands even.

I thought Kenny and Kasuals were from Texas.

Music Shit / Re: Bands/Songs you like that everyone on here would think is gay.

I like the Magnetic Fields "Distortions" LP, which posters in another subject here said was an indicatator  of gayness.  I haven't checked out their other stuff yet, though.

Music Shit / Re: Best version of "Gloria"

« on: August 14, 2008, 06:52:27 PM »

Not to do w/ "Gloria" but speaking of Them and cover songs, I think 13th Floor Elevator's version of "Baby Blue" is by far my favorite.

"Baby Blue" is a Dylan song, I'm pretty sure.

New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / Re: BLANK DOGS "On Two Sides" LP on Troubleman Records OUT NOW

Yeah TMU mailorder is super flaky & really slow.  I stopped buying TMU releases about 3 years ago, they ripped me off one too many times.  Hopefully they fired the old mailorder guy.
You're better off buying it from Bistro.

I had similar experiences.  Months waiting to receive orders, emails promising to ship soon, orders "lost in the mail", etc.  It'll be interesting to see if they've improved.

I send money to Israel once in registered mail and I'm pretty sure it was stolen by someone in their postal system.  Must as I dislike paypal, it's a lot safer.

I normally can find the seller's shipping charges under the Policies tab.

Is any of that Elephant 6 stuff worth listening to?

I like the Elephant 6 stuff, particularly early Neutral Milk (tapes, 7"s, 1st album), Olivia Tremor Control, and the Minders (7" stuff primarily).  Apples In Stereo have some good 7" records, but I ifnd their albums kind of boring.

I echo the comment on media mail.  It seems that the majority of sellers only ship by media mail and do so without any problem, but every time I've had a package "lost" it was sent media mail.  Similarly all of the sellers who take a really long time to ship, like a month or longer, alway use media mail.

The 4 Track Album 7" is the best of the two or three records I've heard by them.  It's got some great noisy guitar playing on it.

Best Fevers song = "Ohio Express" from that Just Add Water comp.

I agree.  I like their first album better than their singles.

"Come And Play With Me In The Garden" by John's Children is pretty good.

Curtis Mayfield-Roots, Superfly, Back to the World

I don't normally listen to soul music, but I watched Superfly a week or so ago and the part with Curtis Mayfield doing Superfly live was pretty cool.
