That's interesting...didn't know that. I remember once seeing a Geffen promotional film about Elliott Smith with some informal clips of him playing around at home, and being really surprised at how well he played piano.

One of my earliest "club" memories is seeing the Replacements (pre- Sire), and enduring some lummox howling out a request for "RUN IT!!!" between every single song. I don't think they ever played it, either. Been sore-throated and half-sick for the past two days...amazing what can happen just from spending an inordinate amount of time touching compact discs which a lot of other people have touched.

Well, actually I could have. - -tc ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 26 Dec 2006 12:10:49 -0500 From: FSThomas Subject: New Old Robyn Photo I came across a gallery of musician portraits by Laura Levine today, including an apple-wielding Mr. Hitchcock (NYC, c.1988), which I'm not sure I've seen before.

Many near misses. In the end, the thread linking most of my favorite records of the year together were artists playing to their strengths, somehow seeming to have fun while creating works of considerable heft... it was, for me, the year of the Playful But Deep Record. And as usual I probably won't hear the real best records of this year until 2007. 1) Sonic Youth, "Rather Ripped" 2) Robyn Hitchcock & the Venus 3, "Ole! Tarantula" 3) Neko Case, "Fox Confessa Bringz tha Flood" 4) Art Brut, "Bang Bang Rock and Roll" 5) Mission of Burma, "The Obliterati" 6) Bob Dylan, "Modern Times" 7) Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twin, "Rabbit Furcoat" 8) Califone, "Roots & Crowns" 9) Glossary, "For What I Don't Become" 10) Tom Verlaine, "Songs & Other Things" VERY near misses, approximate order: 11) Yo La Tengo, "...Your Ass" 12) Ray Davies, "Other Peoples' Lives" 13) Gram Rabbit, "Cultivation" 14) Cold War Kids, "Robbers & Cowards" 15) The Long Winters, "Putting the Days to Bed" 16) Tanya Donelly, "This Hungry Life" 17) TV on the Radio, "Return to Cookie Mountain" 18) Neil Young, "Living with War" (kept out of Top 10 by inclusion of irritating choir and decision to tour this record with CSNY instead of, like, any other band ever) 19) Band of Horses, "Everything All the Time" 20) The Church, "Uninvited, Like the Clouds" Probably the best 2005 record I didn't hear last year: The National, "Alligator" Probaby the best 2007 record I've already heard this year: Bloc Party, "A Weekend in the City" Ten artists whose records I had never heard until this year and may be better than most or all of the above, God bless the Blogosphere: 1) The Slits 2) The Pop Group 3) The Au Pairs 4) A Certain Ratio 5) Comsat Angels 6) Delta 5 7) The Long Ryders 8) Kleenex / Lilliput 9) Wreckless Eric 10) Rip Rig + Panic Tragic irreplaceable musical loss of the year, James Brown's last minute grab for the spotlight notwithstanding: Grant Mclennan. - -SER ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 26 Dec 2006 20:08:38 +0000 From: michaeljbachman@comcast.net Subject: Re: Top 10 Favorites Albums, 2006 - -------------- Original message -------------- From: "Spotted Eagle Ray" > Very hard to select this year.

Tarantula Neko Case - Fox Confessor Brings The Flood Pernice Brothers - Live a Little Decemberists - The Crane Wife Yo La Tango - I Am Not Afraid... Joanna Newsom - Ys Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs - Show Your Bones Mindy Smith - Long Island Shore Belle and Sebastian - The Life Pursuit By Sonic Youth - Rather Ripped Might make it, Ill know tomorrow when it arrives: Midlake - The Trials of Van Occupanther Have yet to get some from SER's list: The Church, Tom Verlaine, Mission of Burma, Tanya Donnely, and a few acts others that I have not heard of. The loss of Grant McLennan still is felt by this author. One of these days I would like to go down under to Brisbane, walk into Rics (Grant's favorite bar), and order up a Long Island Ice Tea (Grant's favorite drink) and toast one to his memory. Until then, I am incredibly greatful that he left us with a with his songs that I will always love.
