Exactly the comparison I had in mind. I heard take on me earlier in a restaurant and briefly thought it was such great heights.

Here's a great full set of us playing with Mike Shiflet on guitar. I left the tour the next morning because my dog was dying. On a hard drive somewhere there's a whole album of GREAT unheard music by this group. youtu.be/cA1X5teoROQ?...

I've just become aware that Obody's cover of "Dead Flowers" was on youtube (by searching myself, of course). I miss being in this band. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkQd...

If this were any kind of a beautiful world then some Hollywood filmmaker would have already done for Chairman Kaga what Aronofsky did for Mickey Rourke.

well I suppose *in theory* I like that a favorite artist released a cassette, only sold it during a brief Ontario tour and promised never to release it digitally, in under 48 hours someone has bought one and immediately resold it for $100 on discogs so we may not be subverting the culture here.

I don't know that I have many Ithaca followers here but in the event that I do, a reminder that our garage art/performance space Neighbors Gallery is hosting Bhob Rainey and Lucky Crumbs this Sunday evening and I'm excited to hear the music and to give our new PA system a whirl!

Maybe it’s the live album I was thinking of since that has unreleased stuff on it.

I suppose I could just ask David but wasn’t there something weird a long time ago with the release on drag city and then retraction or something of a lost final bastro album or am I making that up?

just took kid to see a $8 screening of Sing (2016) to get out of the house for a while and was very surprised to hear a few seconds of Shooby Taylor during the audtion scene.
