Set 1: the old radio show portion of the evening. (Listen to this set: Real) |
|||||||
| The Haunting Hour | The Old Old Man | Originally broadcast sometime from 1944 - 1946 - probably 1945. | (no label) |
We don't know what year it was originally aired, the exact date of the show, or even who was in any of the episodes -- no records were ever kept.
This episode: 9 old men make a pact: whoever is last to stay alive gets all their money. Who's the last man standing? Tune in and find out. "Joe...he's not asleep...he's dead!!!" |

Mic break between Sets 1 & 2. Background music played during it: (Listen to this set: Real) |
|||||||
| Les Chakachas | Love is like a Violin (track 4) | Arriba! | RCA International | Phat, sentimental sound. Feels like it's the slow song at the record hop. | |||
|
Set 2: heavy stuff. (Listen to this set: Real) |
|||||||
| Farflung | Invincible (track 7) (Listen: Real) | A Wound In Eternity | Meteor City | Easy, punchy, heavy, with a calmer end. A great mix of psych rock and hardcore. | |||
| Ministry And Co-Conspirators | Black Betty (track 5) (Listen: Real) | Cover Up | 13th Planet | Mostly instrumental, hardcore. Ledbelly never dreamed his music would be like this! | |||
| Hey Colossus | Overlord Rapture In Vines Part 9 (track 8) (Listen: Real) | Happy Birthday | Riot Season | Blend of psych & doom-rock, best on this CD. A sustained, full-court press. | |||
| Boris | Statement (track 4) (Listen: Real) | Smile | Southern Lord | Heavy & sustained. Full speed ahead! | |||

| Machinefabriek | Borghesia Remix (track 1) (Listen: Real) | Bijeen: Gathered Eccentrics 2005 - 2007 | Kning Disk | Beautiful, quiet, deeply resonant, dark but golden edge, gets gradually louder. Note: it starts verrrry quiet. | |||
| Gas | Sechs (track 6) (Listen: Real) | Nah Und Fern: Konigsforst | Kompakt | Gently surging, solid, and a bit deep. Konigsforst is CD #3 of the 4 CD set. | |||
| Fatagaga | Kelp (track 1) (Listen: Real) | Laudanum | Sol | Steady, deep and glowing, like a softer Sunn O))). | |||
| Nadja | Sandskin (track 5) (Listen: Real) | bodycage | Profound Lore | I think the title is "Sandskin" - only the first 3 tracks of the 5 on this CD are listed. This piece: becomes darkly golden & slowly rhythmic, peaceful, even beautiful, quiets & slows down last 2 minutes. | |||
| Ariel Kalma | Reternelle (track 5: faded out by -5:06) (Listen: Real) | Le Temps des Moissons | Beta-Lactam Ring | Best on this CD, reverbed sax, floating feeling, could <--> Urban Sax. Le Temps des Moissons translates as Harvest Time. | |||

| Re: | Straint (track 5) (Listen: Real) | Mnant | Constellation | Soft & warm, deeper & soft electronic tones in mix, also guitar, a ballad, quiet end. | |||

|||||||
| Earth | Omens and Portents 1: The Driver (track 1) (Listen: Real) | The Bee Made Honey In The Lion's Skull | Southern Lord | Slow & laconic drugged-out psych rock, full-sounding & resonant, and there's that western guitar feel. | |||
| F/i | Starspot (track 4) (Listen: Real) | Helioscopium | Ceres | Low key psych rock. | |||
| Bardo Pond | Adhesive (track 1) (Listen: Real) | Bufo alvarius, amen 29:15 | Drunken Fish | Rough-edged & lush at same time, druggy. From their first album. Most of it isn't very good at all, but there are 2 really good tracks. This is the short one. | |||
| Farflung | 1x (track 5) (Listen: Real) | A Wound In Eternity | Meteor City | Acidy psych rock, solid all the way through. | |||

| Pink Fairies | Walk Don't Run (track 5) (Listen: Real) | Finland Freakout 1971 | MLP | It starts at a trot, slows to a walk, and winds up running. And it's just a little bit demented. | *** | ||
