Not as "heavy" as most hippie R&B of the era...this is basically small-combo soul, coming dead close to what several US black bands were doing then. Not quite "funk," but leading up to it. Lots of songs with soulish "boogaloo" beats, played by organ, sax, bass, drums, plus a decent guitarist who plays with his bare fingers rather than through an effects box. Titles include "Magic Mojo," "Water, Water" (GREAT opening track!), "Pictures In The Fire," "Oh Shining One," "Sisters & Brothers," "Brothers & Sisters," (I am NOT making this up). Plus, the second side starts off with "Stiffnecked Chicken" and "Freaky Beak!" I'm guesstimating this came out in '69 (in "Freaky Beak" Bond does note that the date of recording happened to be the "Year Of The Cock" in China, so if you're up on that kind of stuff, you'd know the year, I guess). The only off-the-wall touch of "hippytude" happens when Bond starts chanting a mantra against the beat of "Freaky Beak" and it actually WORKS! You'll probably see the back cover, featuring artsy-fartsy liner notes and a photo of Bond (who died in 1974) in his long-flowing robe and think this is mere psych fluff, but these songs have a bit more balls and brains than all that.

This stuff didn't filter out of the record geek substrata until Irwin Chusid started playing it on WFMU, I believe just a few years ago. So unless Karen was making thrift expeditions to rural Vancouver in the mid-70s, she's probably just now digging it in limbo. (Mind you, there's some fine thrifting in her home town of Downey... I got a Russian Suprematist plate there once!) BTW, the new Scram--out tomorrow--includes Mike Appelstein's wonderful interview with Hans Fenger, the teacher behind these recordings, and with the little girl who solo'd on "Desperado." Anyone in the Bay Area is cordially invited to drop by the APE (Alternative Press Expo) at Fort Mason on Saturday or Sunday (11-5) to visit with comix and zine folks, including myself and Edwin from Garage & Beat. We'll both have new issues fresh from the printer and will be easy to find, opposite the Fantagraphics booth. I think it's $6 to get in.

Greg Ginn is a Deadhead or at least he was in the 80s. I remember reading some piece in maybe Maximum Rock'n'Roll about what a fan he was and that at nearly every place Black Flag played (outside of LA, presumably), he'd see at least one or two Dead t-shirts in the crowd.

Very strange and beautiful, and a far cry from the beer commercial vibe of a lot of his recent work. Now I see that he is playing soon at Irving Plaza here in New Yorkyville. My question is this: Has anyone heard anything about the current tour? Is he playing the material from the new album with the guys who played on it? Or is he doing "Mustang Sally" backed by an antiseptic Paul Shaffer-type unit? I know that blues music doesn't get discussed here too often but I figure maybe there's someone lurking out there who knows.

I would also recommend the 'Live at Klooks Kleek' album, recorded in October 1964, and available on Charly. It was repackaged a couple of years back with, I believe, improved sound quality. IMHO this album has a good ambiance and is the perfect aural document of what a London Mod club must have been like in the 60s. The sexist in me also quiet likes the line that GB adds in 'What'd I Say' - "see that girl with the topless dress on, stays cool for me all night long!".

Bummer!!! Well, that was how I heard it... or chose to remember it.

I've seen those CD-Rs for sale, too. I have a sneaking suspicion that "dustgod" is making these CD-Rs himself and the Japanese collector thing is a cover-up for legal reasons. I haven't bought any of them because I have about half of each CD-R already and over half of each one is filler that I would never put on a mixtape for someone else. But don't let these CD-Rs scare you away from obscure bubblegum. There are plenty of non-hit bubblegum one-offs that blow away the hits.
