Don't understand the dual name, in English they call themselves No Names, but the English translation of the name Ksat Acheret is 'a little different'. not 'no names'?

Danny Ben-Israel's Bullshit 3 1/4 is surely the wildest album in all Israeli pop music!

One of them, fer sure. Wait for Amnon Raviv's "Mirror" later in the show, though.

is it the same Churchill's who mutated into Jericho and recorded heavy rock album in London in the early 70s?

Menachem Montalbanowitz:

An all-Israeli show? In true Portland fashion, I will start to angrily demand an all-Palestinian followup show, only will choke to death on some loose-leaf tea and kombucha..
  12:28pm
NO NAMES:

Surely Menachem you mean a politically correct multi faith show of Christian, Muslim and Jewish music with bands like Bustan Abraham etc?
  12:33pm
NO NAMES:

Israeli experimental music is bit of a revelation to me, as I always found their psyche and prog to be very melodic, as though the Beatles and Barclay James Harvest are their favourite influences?
Avatar 12:33pm
tonyc:

I would do a three-hour Palestinian psych, prog, and experimental music show if such a thing were possible. I figgers these musicians have little or nothing to do with the political situation over there.
Avatar 12:34pm
tonyc:

@ No Names: Know what you mean. Fusion seems to be a big influence too.
  12:35pm
Menachem Montalbanowitz:

I was surprised to learn that there is a really big Noise Music scene in Israel right now.

Hey Conrad,
How about all those punk versions of Hava Negila!

Oh yeah, Dick Dale also did a killer "Hava."

Don't have any Salvador Dali LPs -- except for the Jackie Gleason one.

Oh, if only there really was such a thing as a Salvador Dali album!
I bought a Dali-esque clock for our house that looks like it's melting. Wifey does not like it.

This Shlomo Gronich may sound like a crappy mp3, but is actually a horribly mastered CD.

I briefly left the room and came back to what I thought was Harry Nilsson

i date from the hold-the-antenna-at-this-angle-to-get-the-station era. i've got a wiiiiiiide definition of crappy sound. :)

@ Menachem Montalbanowitz: No -- it was Shlomo Nilsson.

@ Listener James: I hear ya. I'm just pissed they did such a poor mastering job, as it's one of the very best Israeli albums I know of.
Avatar 1:03pm

Coming up next: Amnon Raviv's "Mirror" -- probably the most unique Israeli album I've heard.
  1:12pm
northguineahills:

I really dig this Amnon Raviv.
Avatar 1:13pm
tonyc:

Igor Krutogolov, on now, is the leader of the band Kruzenshtern & Parohod, who have a bunch of avant-klezmer-ish CDs out.
  1:13pm
Menachem Montalbanowitz:

@listener james: I find that coming from that era has made my (maybe yours too) into a noise reducer, bad signal descrambler. I think we're more tolerant of poor sound than these poor kids who grew up on digital media.
Avatar 1:14pm
tonyc:

@ Northguineahills: Same here -- I think it's great. Amnon Raviv also has a second record I've never heard. These days he's a professional clown!

Having grown up at the foot of a mountain that effectively blocked TV and FM signals, I can not only descramble the worst looking picture but can also filter static, fuzz and distortion with my brain.

yeah, i saw it was about $264 out via twitter, so i pledged, then saw it was like $9 away and upped it.

holy crap, the total jumped by like $3k in the time since my last post. it now reads $70k. thanks to all who donated!!
  1:26pm

That even $67,000 sure looked pretty. Of course, the even $70,000 it just jumped up to is WOW! Someone JUST put in $3k more!

Now they'll have enough money to cover the Old Codger's whole history.

Surprisingly, Raviv Gazit -- on now -- started out his music career writing pop songs.
  1:32pm
Van in DC:

The current National Geographic has a short write up on Tuva, and (very) briefly mentions their throat singing. Read it today in my doctor's office, then someone tweeted a link to it a few minutes ago...

Oh, I thought you were going to say they had an article on the Old Codger's career. He is sort of a throat singer -- sounds pretty phlegmy anyhow.
  1:35pm
Van in DC:

You mean Ken...?

The WFMU movie just jumped another $10k to $80k!

Ken is the young codger. The old codger is at least 120.

Tony,
Is the orange season over or do you still plan on playing that album and Behind the sounds, one of my favourite Shlomo Gronich/Mathi Caspi albums?
Avatar 1:43pm
tonyc:

Don't have "Behind the Sounds" -- wish I did! I'm not going to play any Tamouz, but will play something from a solo album by one of the members, Ariel Zilber.
  1:44pm
NO NAMES:

oh,
that Tamouz album is considered in Israel as the finest prog album ever produced there!
Avatar 1:46pm
tonyc:

I picked it up recently -- but didn't like it too much on first listen. Mebbe I'll warm up to it...
  1:48pm
NO NAMES:

yes, I understand, it has a little of Supertramp/mid period Genesis sound about it that on first listen appears lightweight, but prolonged hearing might reveal a little more than that.
Avatar 1:53pm

I'll give it another chance for sure!

Has anyone out there got a recording of the 1992 Klezmatics John Peel session, which I heard but did not reocrd. It was amazing like Klezmer done as space rock, like Shlomo Carlebach mixed with Hawkwind!
