You see a blanket on the ground. It's your favorite color, smooth and soft. You can sit on it, or lie on it. It's a flying blanket, and you are the pilot. You are in control. You can fly anywhere you wish, just by thinking about it. You are the pilot.

Yeah, Broadcast *revered* the United States of America. Their lead tech wizard, Joseph Byrd, later did a record (maybe two?) of Christmas music for 1970s analog synths on John Fahey's Takoma record label.

↳ Song: "Better Than You" by "Swans"
i happened upon a the burning world cassette for a buck or 2 (venus records?) and bought it. i think the last thing i'd heard (pre-internet) was greed.
i listened to it once and gave up entirely on swans!
i only started paying attention to swans again when wfmu gave leaving meaning so much airplay, then i backtracked to the seer - but i have yet to give much time to those albums in-between.

There are a few songs on Burning World I wish they'd re-record. They're not all great songs but The River That Runs with Love and Let It Come Down could be really great if done now. And God Damn the Sun is perfect, as is the cover of Can't Find My Way Home.

Any BLONDIE fanatics out there; do Not sleep on surprisingly still kickass gettin it done concert of them in Berlin Club circa 4/28/2017? - perhaps a promo for the great ‘Pollinator’ album and filmed for broadcast
- so it looks great. One imagines the sound may have been sweetened- cause it sounds too goood. Drummer Clem Burke shall be declared a USofA NNational Treasure! Amen.

↳ Song: "Peace and Love Dub" by "Augustus Pablo"
coincidentally had a 2+ hour phone conversation with my old high school frined that turned me onto Augustus Pablo (amongst other things) in the 70s.
along the way he lost something and for years only listened to/played "americana" and a certain type of "standard".
when i've mentioned that he turned me onto gentle giant and Eno and burning spear (etc) he'd forgotten!
... today he told me his interest in music has been revived and he pulled out his bass and amp!
