"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

![]() Nature is in charge this morning. Also, was that 80's synth thing really a brand new record? I was loving the "Woo-hoo"s. |

![]() Good morning John, and commenters. I too have been enjoying the singer-songwriter stuff. |
![]() |
![]() I really like Matt Krefting's stuff. He's a very good writer as well. One of his blog posts recently led me to revisit The Bells by Lou Reed. He also wrote an interesting post about Bowie which in turn led me to Rick Moody's wild analysis of The Next Day. |
