  • Penny Goodwin-Portrait of a Gemini. Nice record. Inside the sleeve was a press kit for Penny made, I'm guessing, by the head of the label. The cover page has Penny's bio, along with the band's, and a list of all the venues she and th…
  • My Funkadelic "Connections and Disconnections" has a press kit in it. I haven't looked at in a while to see exactly what's in it, but there's some letters and photoraphs for sure. I need to dig it out and see.
  • That's where Sound Exchange used to be. Pulled some heat there many years ago after I watched Rob Swift, who was in town for SXSW, kill shit during an in-store performance. RIP Alien Records, too.
  • My Tyrone Davis "In the Mood" 45 is missing the intro as well.
  • asstro said:I can't be alone in thinking this would be a really interesting list to compile as we come down to the end of the original Strut 100. Especially in the genres of music that we all love around here, the single is king and lots of tracks/a…
  • Even assuming this is true (and, again, I think the significance is massively overblown), I guess my question is "so what?" This has to be one of the least interesting aspects of the show. Why do I need Gilliam to *signal* to me a character's proc…
  • rootlesscosmo said:eh. these color theories are lame. certain characters favor certain colors. that's...it. I was watching an episode commentary recently (season 2 maybe?), and Gilligan and someone who works on the set said they…
  • "Inherent Vice"- Thomas Pynchon. PT Anderson is adapting this for the screen. I'm excited to see what he'll do with it. Pynchon and Anderson seem like a good match. "Tishimingo Blues." It's my favorite Leonard novel, and yesterday seemed as g…
  • Will Sessions is killing it.

  • Probably the best rap album from the South. Straight-up classic.

  • I've heard that too, but this video actually showed the dude who made the beats---I want to say pretty much the whole Doggystyle album, maybe bits of Dogfood as well---and it interviews DPG dudes, like Daz, saying very matter-of-factly, as well as n…
  • Also, the "magic screw" is a very real thing. I first heard about it in the early 90s. Someone told me there was a screw beneath the platter of a 1200/1210 which, if removed, would allow you to double the range of the pitch control. It was a favouri…

  • HarveyCanal said:Pre-Spontaneity, K-Otix demo tapes. So good! I've always liked K-Otix. Spontaneity stays in rotation. Where can i hear the demos?

  • I'm pretty disconnected. I've never properly listened to any Daft Punk material. Can a Strutter recommend a good starting point?

  • Staxwax, you make some valid points, but I'll have to disagree with you vis a vis he has to fill up his movies with references, stealing scenes etc to make them good. A very small percentage of people who see his films are aware of this. I missed a …
