Toody

Here’s a picture of Toody Cole of the band Dead Moon that I took in October, 2004 in New Orleans. With Dead Moon, you either got it or you didn’t – I didn’t understand, and then a friend showed me, and then I did.

The Crucifucks * 1983 Demo

Crucifucks Demo

I bought this tape from The Crucifucks at a show in Chicago in 1983. The Lansing, MI punk band would go on to release a couple of well-regarded albums in the mid-80s and were noted for the antics of frontman Doc Dart — significant also, the drummer on these recordings is Steve Shelley, who has been in Sonic Youth for the past 25 years.

T-Bone Talks

|January 30, 2010 | Philosophy

T-Bone Burnett is an enigmatic, eccentric, hugely successful producer and musician who doesn’t give a lot of interviews, but when he does ( there’s a good one in Howard Massey’s excellent Behind The Glass Vol.2, which is a must-read for anyone who wants to make records ), he has me shaking my head and going ” this fucking guy, gee whiz ” .. here’s his recent NPR interview.

6th & Baronne

|January 28, 2010 | Found Sounds, New Orleans Music

I recently managed to score a mint vinyl copy of a classic bounce track – UNLV’s seminal 6th & Baronne. It was one of the very first releases from Cash Money Records, and remains a crowd-moving favorite in New Orleans. Here’s what bounce scholar Ballzack has to say about it :

skinny-black

” This song is great for many reasons… the piano is really dramatic and immediately draws you in, UNLV’s sing- song delivery is hypnotizing, it sounds like it was recorded on a 4 track, and Mannie Fresh’s production is all heart. It’s a great song that gets you bucked up as soon it starts. If they released it now, it would still be great. It’s simply New Orleans punk rock at its finest. ”
