    Found this at a lady's house yesterday. It was on her basement floor and had some paint on it (which seems to be coming off in the soak). Independent Canadian thing on a West Idian-based label. A side is county-ish while the B side is growing on me

    In the mail today, third time was a charm on eBay, this time I won, and got it for "my price," under $10:



    Really a strong record all the way through, west coast soul rock, mostly covers, has a rock version of Parliament's "(I Wanna) Testify!" Gets listed as "psych" although the psych touches are minor...highlight of the whole thing is the version of the Miracles' "Mickey's Monkey," where they pull out all the stops, dude is screaming and the organ/guitars are wailing, it is seriously sick, sounds like The Stooges do Motown!! Oh, and there's a drum break on "99 1/2"

    Hit a local spot today at lunch, only picked up one thing, but not bad for a "one record" purchase, especially an OG for $10:



    Not quite as promising as it looks, and it starts out real strong on a Cymande-style tip but doesn't maintain all the way through, but why nitpick cause it's still a dope record, and I was pretty surprised to just see an OG sitting in the bin of the store it was at (and for $10 when they charge $15 for late 70's Detroit Emeralds records...)

    It is tight you found that! Aleit, have you seen My Best Fiend, the documentary about Herzog and Kinski working together? Ill footage of filming Aguirre. Best shit on there, though, is about Fitzcarraldo and how they totally did pull that boat over a mountain and people straight up died doing that shit

    yeah, i've seen MY Best Fiend... i'm pretty sure there was another movie devoted entirely to the filming of Fitzcarraldo- i know i saw it, forget the name. I've been a huge Herzog fan for a long time and probably seen 3/4 of his films- some of which, I think are incredibly problematic- but provocative nonetheless. He did a very interesting and hilarious interview on Fresh Air a while back... hilarious because Terry Gross can just say the stupidest shit sometimes and get put on blast by her guests. Herzog is such a drama queen, but fucking intense.

    Burden of Dreams by Les Blank. It's a sick documentary. In it, hear Herzog try to figure out how many lives of the local actors it may cost to continue pulling the boat over the land. It's fucked up. That and Hearts of Darkness (about the filming of Apocolypse Now) are probably the best film docs I've ever seen.

    Oh man! That is some shit. I need to see that.
    Also, Herzog+Teri Gross=you know, I am not sure what it equals. But something I want to listen to

    if yer really into herzog you should check out Incident At Loch Ness.. shit is dope.. Herzog gets to finally be the action star.

    there's a slo a very weird lil doc called "werner herzog eats his shoe" which is just that... it was the result of a bet he made with one of his former assistants.

    I think Les Blank did that one too.

    Herzog shares some pretty interesting anecdotes.

    One about promising his cast that he would run full speed into a quite painful cactus as a reward for completing a film on time. He came through on that promise.

    Another on walking around the entire perimeter of Algeria as a test of his love for a young Algerian girl when he was a youth.

    And my favorite was his explanation to Teri that he does not look into the mirror into his eyes, because he is afraid of what lurks beneath. He likened that to living in a room for many years and keeping a light in a certain corner, never illuminating the other corners of the room. That would be the point in the interview where he began to flip out and Teri quickly ended things.

    Missed Incident at Lochness... played one day here in NOLA at a crappy film festival and I couldn't make it. heard it was good.

    The cactus and Algeria stories are endearing. I like that he recognizes that he is kind of a douche and the promise of paining himself keeps his crew in line. I wonder, really, how true is the looking in the eyes and the subsequent freak out. I do believe he is a bit nuts, but hearing him speak and reading other interviews with him, his temper and bizarre outburts are so meta. I suppose that's how it works when you are a crazy genius

  • Found a KILLER osbcure hip hop 12" today..

    D-Smooth - "Droppin Smooth Lyrics" (1990) on Smooth City Records. I think it's out of Rhode Island.

    This shit is on FIRE. All 3 cuts are dope. Can't find anything online, though.. Anyone know anything about this one?

    Went to a hit-or-miss record store a couple blocks from my tutoring office and found these goodies in minty condition just sittin' there for cheap:





    Dasidi Komolafe- Hassan's Walk ('83 free/spiritual jazz recording on the Nimbus Label; haven't given it a thorough listen yet but the instrumentation is nice. also a raer one.)



    massive attack v mad professor- no protection (i'm LOVIN' this. my copy has a real flimsy cover, is this a reissue?)



    oh, and thanks to AP, the quality my funk 45 stash has increased exponentially. thanks dude!! you rock.

    That nimbus lp looks killer. I don't buy reish's to often but I got this cool psych/prog one today by a group called Jasper Wrath. Whats strange is it's a test pressing. I've never really seen a test pressing of a reissue before. Whatever. Anyways its a pretty cool lp with alot of bizarre instrumentation-theremin, oscillators, celeste, harpischord etc.
