    Im going to delve deeper into her solo catalog.

    I realized she only has three solo studio and I have them all.

    I kinda wanna hunt down her various productions.

    I got an mp3 recorder in the summer and have been recording my monthly sets. The gaps and messy mixes make me cringe and I can blame people talking with me while I'm trying to cue, etc. on only half of those. :/
    Since radio show days, I haven???t heard myself played back in a loooooonnnnng time. It???s fun!

    My financial situation has changed drastically and I have been very good about not buying until I get settled in this new climate, but I did come across an Archie Whitewater that I just couldn???t pass on. I have it, but my brother has been wanting one forever. I wanted to surprise him by just handing it to him, but I got so excited, I spilled the beans and told him on the phone.

    I will never tire of this record:

    Charles Wright's version of Here comes the sun gave me goosebumps today.


    Music R: My 5 year old told me he wants to be Jimi Hendrix when he grows up.

  • this record has been ruling the roost here all day long:

    Angela Winbush "Treat You Right" is my jawn as well....



    When it came out the credits said it's produced by her. I thought to myself WOW she had a on og copy of the afrolafayette rock band and decided she would sample and loop the drums on the mpc and sing over it? She's a g....

    Not bad. That's not that Blackgirls record, is it?

    I just noticed the other day that Angela Winbush played percussion on Lenny Williams's Spark Of Love.

    b/w

    Her gloves on the "I'll Be Good" cover kinda creep me out. I know, "style of the time" and all, but still. Crazy mannequin hands.

    As far as music: "Mothership Connection" live in Houston (in like '76, I think?), plus bass everlasting with The Upsetters' "Chim Cherie." Fuck the world.

    And R.I.P. Glen Goins.

    ha....i doubt she looped the shit herself. I bet shit was a "stock-loop".
    For her to mess w/ it vs some dude making it for her is cool.....EDIT.....

    Cosmo called it....Chuckii co-produced that shit.

  • pretty sure this going to get me boo'd outta here and prolly a latte pass in the struts eyes, but man i have been rocking this album for days now...

    It's never too late to learn of a classic.

    a) "Magic Man" will always be a contender for G.S.o.A.T.

    and

    b) that is easily their most consistent and listenable LP.

    Same with me for this one. Used to like it as a kid and understood it was a bit strange.
    Hearing it again as an adult,though, it just blows me away. The arrangement, the vibe, the breakdown part.
    Just sends me.....really odd the way some songs really 'grow' over time but many just don't connect.

    Nice. I like that. Very subtle. It sounds a bit like a slower version of 'Asso - Don't Stop.'

    You know, that's funny--I was gonna say that it had heavy Mountain Moving Day vibes.

    The Blackgirls record is this stringy, strident, all-female thing from NC. They ended up on Mammoth (word to soulstrut's own DJ Marco, wherever he may be), but early on they had this really anonymous record with a really generic title that's eluding me right now; and like GeneP, I got an 80s feel from the clips, so I thought maybe this was that. I should have known better, though: no violin, and the accents are all wrong. Oh well.

    Among a certain segment of Chicago's lesbian population, this is apparently the time of year to bust out the elaborately embroidered and ultimately baffling pop-culture-themed heavy leather bombers. This week alone, I've seen the ladies topping off their all-season Dickies/Crocs combos with: a Warner Brothers jacket with all the characters, a relatively understated black-on-black Harry Potter number with the lightning bolts, and--the capper--this very expensive-looking faux-distressed jernt with writhing full-back heraldry that converged at its center upon a stately rendering of the Wheel Of Fortune board. It's all like some kind of mysterious plumage display. I am intrigued, but wary.

  • since we're on the topic, here are a couple of the better songs from some private press lesbian jazz/funk/polka album out of cali called "baba yaga" that i grabbed recently....

    "too cool to be true"
