nick drake: cello song



ken...james leva is an oldtime fiddler who branches out into
some pretty non trad directions, cathy jones is his wife and is
a fine trad singer-songwriter as well.  she has a cut on the
O-Sister disc i believe.  james i saw up at hiawatha with  a band 
called The Hellbenders (not the punker outfit) back in 93 with dave 
winston on banjo, dave grant on bass and dave's wife mary winston on 
guitar.  they were powerful, both live, and on cassette.  leva also 
played with The Freewill Savages and The Renegades
with Ritchie Stearns (Horseflies, Improbabillies) & June Drucker 
(Improbabillies).

the jones & leva song "vertie's dream" is the title cut off their latest
album and brings me close to tears most every time.

Thanks happyboy, I will file them away and maybe get to hear them 
sometime.
 
Andy Kershaw's show on BBC Radio 3, with Charlie Gillett filling in 
for an ailing Andy.  Lots of African music; oops, now it's the 
Be Good Tanyas again.

For sopme reason I've been stuck on 1480 am for the last few days. Classic
country. They just played the Gatlin Brothers, I don't know what's being
played now.

        I'm listening to KOZT-FM, Fort Bragg, California, waiting for
Dr. Demento to come on.  Internet radio by tape & mail delay.

Chumbawamba, "After Shelley" from the new release READYMADES. This is the best
new release I've bought in a long long time. Of course, there are samples from
many different British/Scottish folkies on practically every song. This
particular one features Kate Rusby. Also Coope, Boyes & Simpson, Lal Waterson
& Olly Knight, Harry Cox, Belle Stewart, Joe Heany, and Dick Gaughan, are
sampled on other tracks.

Uh oh. Sounds like a new album in Twila's future. Is it available in the
States?

response 276 of 369: Mark Unseen   Jun 22 20:45 UTC 2002

Yes.  Curiously, the US got the Chumbawamba CD first this time; the BBC
says the British release is in August.

        Time warp to Dr. Demento from March 27, 1988.  Dr. Demento
will be interviewing Alan Sherman on this show.

1988?  Allan Sherman was already dead by then.  Or is this somebody 
else?

If you're talking about Allan Sherman, the 1960's comedian famous for 
song parodies, he died in 1973.

Roy Harper, "Tom Tiddler's Ground" from 1970's FLAT BAROQUE AND BERSERK.

        Double time warp.  In 1988 Dr. Demento used an 'Open Ended Interview'
where he could ask the questions and Allan Sherman answers thanks to
the magic of a vinyl pressing.  The interview was from 1964.

  currently playing:  Sigur Ros' "Agaetis Byrjun"

  (sprinkle with Icelandic vowel accents for a more accurate spelling of
  both band name and album title..)

  very good atmospheric shoe-gazey stuff from an Icelandic band that's
  met with surprising levels of success in the U.S. and Britain (although
  "Icelandic band meets surprising success in U.S. and Britain" seems
  destined to become a music-industry cliche, if it hasn't already..)

Did you happen to make it to hear the Kronos Quartet on Saturday?  For their
encore they played a quartet version of a Sigur Ros tune.  Apparently they're
working on some sort of collaborative project with Sigur Ros now.

  Haven't heard anything about that.  (BTW, I live near Seattle these days,
  not sure where you were when attending the concert Saturday.)
