Morning, all.

Thanks for checking out the podcast. That was fun. I sound like shit on Skype!

What is this blue gatefold you have up on Instagram? Loved the Oregon jamz y’all were playing on the Brokedown Podcast.
Avatar 12:15am
Jeff Conklin:

Curious if we have any new listeners tonight who came from the podcast. Reveal yourselves!

That gatefold is the second Chilliwack album...

Popul Vuh at their most magisterial/processional! Thank you. This is what Swans/Gira aims for/achieves sometimes

Hi Jeff! Pretty sounds thus far! Does WFMU have cassette players? Just wondering?

Yes we have a lovely tape deck in the studio.

Hey Jay, I've never heard Swans come within 5k light years of Fricke and Co and to be honest I'm never gonna try to find it!
Avatar 12:21am
jaywbabcock:

Oh there's plenty of places where Swans achieved this but if you're not interested, you're not interested!
  12:21am
Dean:

I'll second that, Jeff. Re: Swans and PV, I mean.

A generational thing, maybe.

Been listening to PV and Swans for 20+ years and trust me, there are concordances

We had a little string of Flying Saucer Attack related songs going on there

Jeff Conklin:

@Jay: Cool not gonna argue and not saying you're incorrect. I have no interest in ever listening to that band is all.
Avatar 12:34am
Adamsworth:

That FSA cover of Sally Free & Easy is great. I remember they had to do the vinyl version in mono because the stereo separation would make the record skip.
  12:35am
Dean:

I think Jay has a point. I've listened to PV for more than 40 years -- a generation, give or take, longer than his experience. I'm probably older than you, too, Jeff, which complicates things. But I think for my crowd Swans sounded belated from the get-go, a nod to punk, for instance.
  12:38am
Jeff Conklin:

Well at least we’re not talking about 80s Dead. But still.
  12:39am
Dean:

Well, now that you mention them...

I have been listening to this Louvin Brothers discography cheapo 6 CD set I got for $20 all week. It's so good.
Avatar 12:45am
jaywbabcock:

(re Swans. I guess I'm thinking mainly of the "White Light from the Mouth of Infinity" period, if anyone [other than Jeff, haha] is interested....)

Please share which Swans albums get to PV levels.

But PV is THEE BEST and it's always a pleasure to hear them — thank you Mr Conklin!

NRPS !!! Yay!! Also The Dead did play some hot shows in the 80's, at least that is how I remember it
Avatar 12:48am

This is a great version of this song.

@Luisa: Maybe youre new here. the 80s is a kind of running joke.

Just reading about that NRPS show...20-30 people in attendance!

I just bookmarked that show on the Deadhead Archives app on my phone to listen to later

Ah, it was Gnarles Barkley that sampled Trees. I haven't heard it, I looked it up.
Avatar 1:10am
Adamsworth:

Jeff, I saw you posted about this MV&EE earlier and I was hoping you'd play it, since I haven't heard it. It really is great!
Avatar 1:10am
Jeff Conklin:

I played this jam last year but fuck it

Hello! Why did I open this page? Now I want to weigh in on the Swans thing. Geeking out about music is so much more fun than working. But... work is more important right now so I'll leave it at that and get back to it. Hello everyone! Enjoying the show!

@jeff I’m listening live and because of this message board, I will be downloading the brokedown pod and giving it a listen.

Speaking of pods......anyone else listening to, Cocaine & Rhinestones? The Rusty & Doug Kershaw episode and the stories about Neil Young’s - On The Beach recording sessions is worth the listen: https://cocaineandrhinestones.com/rusty-doug-kershaw-cajun-way

I thought this one sounded familiar. One of my fave shows
  1:55am
dubkitty:

@jeff: so, where might one find a CD copy of the MV & EE you played earlier? i've been Googling, but to little effect. always nice to hear one of the Ark shows too!
Avatar 1:58am
Jeff Conklin:

@dubkitty: Not available on CD. I've urged Matt to put it on Bandcamp. With his blessing maybe I can upload it...
  2:00am
dubkitty:

that would be lovely. could you recommend something of his/theirs that is CD-available?
Avatar 2:03am
Adamsworth:

It's on soulseek, which I say because it's not on discogs
Avatar 2:07am

I'd rather pay the band for it than either though, really.

@Dubkitty: This is a good one from the same era: www.discogs.com...

This Chilliwack is great. Reminds me a bit of Spirit, for some reason.

@dbukitty: Theyre like the Dead, once you get hooked there's TONS to explore. And dont forget Wet Tuna ;)

That might well be my favorite Trad, Gras och Stenar / International Harvester jam, soooo good!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:15pm
jmr3:

I love that Sommerlaten jam, too. Sometimes the riff reminds me of the theme of a certain long suite about a mythical railroad terminal that was written a few years later by a couple guys from northern California. Many great versions of that one were played in the 80's, btw.

Listened to this archive on my westward plane ride back from New England. I was at that MV/EE show! It was on the Tufts campus, and me and my then-girlfriend might have been the only non-students there. I remember the Environments jam being really good that night. Now that I know the name it was released under, I definitely need to hunt it down. I actually picked up the CD that Jeff recommended at that show! I agree it's a good toe-dip point.
