[2fs Subject: So, what is everybody's favourite... ...track from *Abbey Road Now!*? *Abbey Road* *then* is, natch, my favourite album of all times; so i was most excited to hear tell of this project. after one listening, i'm thinking my fave is let's wrestle's "Silver Hammer", though tilbrook's "You Never Give Me Your Money" is also a possiblity. broken records' "Oh! Darling" is perhaps the most interesting interpretation, and maybe the only number that comes terribly close to being finer that the original. over-all, i'm thumbing upward. do kinda wish, though, that there were a few more songs with female vocals. i always dig hearing the ladies cover the guys. (especially appreciate, for recent examples, hoffs' work, from *Vol. II*, on "Maggie May", "Seen All Good People" -- please, no words from the peanut gallery to the effect that her pitch is lower than anderson's anyhow..., and "All The Young Dudes".) as an aside, my memory seems to be failing me here in trying to think of great examples of the opposite; of guys covering the gals. little help, peeps? i'll tell you what would fucking *kill*, though: fucking robyn covering "Gazebo Tree". don't none of the fucking one of you deny that you're going to hear that in your fucking *dreams* tonite! fuck. 'cause you fucking *will* hear it there. (i mean, jeez, what the fuck else would you hear there? some fucking sonny bono bullshit? or what?) SPOILERS BEGIN HERE, BITCHES! don't read no fucking more of this post until you've heard the record in question; otherwise, i think you'll be sorry. here's, close as i can remember it, what i was thinking during robyn's "I Want You": well, his voice certainly sounds great here, but this hews much too closely to the original, doesn't it? ... plus, this is far the most obvious track for him to've chosen to re-create. better to've chosen something from side two, no? ... huhn! that organ's pretty neat ... holy fuck-me-running! that saw just makes me want to break down and weep. not only 'cause it sounds so gorgeously hauntingly beautiful in its own right; but also 'cause it's so audacious for him to've held back such a wonderful surprise 'til mid-song; having duped the listener into supposing it to've been only a pedestrian-if-competent re-telling of this to-be-sure classic drama for the ages ... damn, the band *do* sound good here; can't be denied. ... ah, yes. harmonies. we mustn't forget some knock-down, ass-kick harmonies. ... wow, this saw is just the fucking *tops*. ... and the cello is almost like adding insult to injury. ... yeah, bring on the coda! ain't finished *yet*. ... sure hoping the fuckers play this during up-coming tour, even sans saw. you can sure enough bet your dimpled ass that i'll be requesting. truth be told, this might be my fave song of the lot. i might even be required to sequence it somewhere into the middle of *Goodnight Oslo*. incidentally, i'm sure y'all enjoy frank a whole lot. if so, y' might find to be of interest. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 20 Sep 2009 22:25:06 -0700 From: Rex Subject: Re: So, what is everybody's favourite... > i'll tell you what would fucking *kill*, though: fucking robyn covering > "Gazebo Tree". don't none of the fucking one of you deny that you're going > to hear that in your fucking *dreams* tonite! fuck.

Well, I certainly am no arbiter of taste, but I do like to listen to chicks sing with stringed instruments. But I've listened to Colleen and Newsom (and Essie Jain and Keren Ann and Linda Perhacs and Emiliana Torrini and etc.) so much that I need something new. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2009 13:42:53 -0500 From: 2fs Subject: Re: movies for stewart's netQ (was Re: not REAP but not at all well) On Mon, Sep 21, 2009 at 7:42 AM, Stewart C.

Whatever music I made was purely for myself, without trying to speak the language of the day. The result was *I Often Dream of Trains. *- Robyn Hitchcock* *I Often Dream of Trains in New York* was recorded live at Symphony Space in New York City in the fall of 2008 during the U.S. leg of Hitchcock's highly anticipated *I Often Dream of Trains Tour*. Deftly shot by acclaimed director *John Edginton* (The Pink Floyd and Syd Barrett Story) and originally aired on the Sundance Channel, this concert film DVD (and accompanying audio CD) captures the cult songwriting icon recreating one of his most intimate and haunting albums in its entirety. Robyn is joined by Trains tour-mates Terry Edwards (vocals, keyboards, trumpet, soprano sax, guitar) and Tim Keegan (vocals, guitar) as well as guests Gaida Hinnawi (vocals) and Amir El Saffar (trumpet) from the Robyn-led band seen in Jonathan Demme's stunning film Rachel Getting Married. As its title suggests, *I Often Dream of Trains* is a glimpse into the phantasmagorical mind of the artist himself. And *I Often Dream of Trains in New York*captures him fantastically raw and singularly in-the-moment - in other words, quintessentially...Hitchcock. There is also a regular edition version of the *I Often Dream of Trains in New York* DVD/CD available via the Yep Roc Webshop.
