Recommendation:Artist: The Mountain Goats
Album: All Hail West Texas
A guy records songs on a boombox. Sometimes you can hear when he hits the stop button. Sometimes the sound in one channel cuts out. And ohmigod it's beautiful. Let me direct you to the song "Jenny" on this album:
We were the one thing in the galaxy god didn't have his eyes on, Nine hundred cc's of raw whining power No outstanding warrants for my arrest Goddamn, the pirate's life for me. I've loved this guy for years and had no idea. A while back I listened to the album "Protein Source of the Future...Now!" and was kind of taken. Then I forgot about him. My bad.

Comments:![]() Peter, apparently yahoo doesn't have that album, though it does have some others. What can be done about this besides whining?
![]() One time I looked up a band's web site, and wrote them. (Happened to be Lizzie West.) They responded, and said "We do have control over Holy Road and will try to upload that album to yahoo and rhapsody soon." It turns out in this case they didn't, but I think the answer is "whine at the label".
![]() Andy, whine at me with a gmail address.
Also, google "hype machine" and search there with song titles. "Tallahassee" is also great, if that's available to you. Not the same lo-fi recording, though. (Not necessarily a downside.) Add Comment:Send this recommendation: |
