Night Clubbing - Trent Reznor, Jeordie White, Peter Murphy

Several weeks ago I wrote about Iggy Pop and Peter Murphy sounding nearly the same; just yesterday I discovered the live radio performances that Peter Murphy and Trent Reznor gave during the joint Nine Inch Nails/Bauhaus tour of 2006. Lo and beho...

yukihiro takahashi 1986 Moonlight feels right

Of course I remembered even more Moldy 70s songs immediately after I posted my Moldy 70s video collection, but one of them led to an unanticipated discovery. Looking for Starbuck's "Moonlight Feels Right" on YouTube, I found instead a live perfor...

Being first is everything. Bolus gets linked to from everywhere for posting videos of cheesy 70s songs as "Hell's iPod." I've been enjoying this crap for years, unironically, having made two "Moldy 70s" CDs during the Napster years. Here is a v...

04 - Prelude

As an addendum to my previous post, I've found a usable (i.e. under 20 minutes) edit of "Prelude" from Agharta, the electric-era Miles Davis tune that opened up a whole new area of music to me in 1991.

06 - Girl of My Dreams Motors - Love And Loneliness

A couple more new-wave-leaning songs that got regular airplay on staunch AOR station WAVA were Bram Tchaikovsky's "Girl of My Dreams" (1979) and the Motors' "Love and Loneliness" (1980). I always think of those two songs together because Tchaikov...

12 - yachting type 01 The Shape Of Things To Come

For a couple years, roughly 1978-80, "new wave" music could be heard on rock (or AOR, "album-oriented rock") radio stations. Either new wave had yet to forge a distinct identity, or rock fans had yet to notice anything different and voice their d...

It's a low-budget documentary of the parking-lot party activities before a 1986 Judas Priest concert at the Capital Centre in Largo, Marylan...

A1 I Wish You Would

I was in the ninth grade when I discovered the "imports" section at the local record store (Waxie Maxie's), filled with stuff that looked downright weird. Even better, though, was the discounted imports bin, and one day when I had five dollars to...

Electronic Mind Project - 10 - Space pilot

I've been on a low-grade Hawkwind binge since watching the Hawkwind - Do Not Panic BBC 4 documentary last week, and the binge has expanded to include not just Hawkwind and Hawkwind splinter groups, but bands influenced by Hawkwind as well. Which ...

04 - Furies(1) Hawkwind - Urban Guerilla (Promo)

Bill Laswell's Praxis project, originally a turntable-and-sampler affair, changed direction in the 90s to invent the "cyberthrash" genre. With a core lineup of Laswell, Buckethead, Bernie Worrell, and Brain, they constantly switched gears from fu...
