("Strange Currencies" is on Monster..)

Listening to King Tubby again..  I'm not sure why I've become so
fascinated by dub lately, it just kind of happened..  Perhaps it's
the remarkable process of making new and totally different music by
disassembling and altering other people's work (decades before the
current sampling craze and with quaintly primitive equipment by today's
standards..)  Right now I'm wondering if he'd have been a total terror
if the he'd had modern equipment available to him for the work he did
in the mid-70's or if the availability of advanced tools might've 
stopped him from developing his distinctive style..

  Various Artists,  "Amp", a collection of electronic music that,
  despite being released under MTV's aegis, nevertheless doesn't suck.

  I particularly like the track "Atom Bomb" by Fluke..

  "Baby's got a Nobel Prize 
   Given for the perfect crime 
   Baby's got an atom bomb.."

  Can anyone tell me if this track's fairly typical of Fluke's
  recordings?

Tortoise "Millions Now Living will Never Die,"  this is kind of hard to
describe I guess the closest might be experimental rock improve with
influences of everything from Philip Glass, and Disicplene era King
Crimson, to Hip Hop, and 50s rock instrumetals and the Grateful Dead if
they had started in the 90s.  It's all instrumetal & mellow, good chillin'
music.

The Walkabouts, RAG & BONE.  The collapse of the melodic talent of 
this Seattle band was one of the great disappointments of the '90's;
RAG & BONE, from 1990, was their zenith.

Are the Walkabouts no more?  I always loved their stuff.  If you are a
Walkabouts fan you might want to check out the Throwing Muses, esp their
first eponymous album and their second CD "House Tornado."

The Walkabouts still exist; I will have to find someplace to write about 
them.

  the Skatalites -- "Ska-ta-shots"

  Definitely not worth the whopping $30 Tower's been demanding for it for
  the past several years but when I found the other day that they'd given
  up on selling it at their beyond-the-bounds-of-reason import price and 
  had marked it down to $9.99 I snapped it up.  Has a couple of swinging
  tracks that haven't made it to any of the early ska compilations I own..

(How did you find out that Tower had marked this down?
There is a Breton disc by the band Tri Yann which has similarly been
priced at $32 for about five years...)

  Sorry, just happened across it while scanning for interesting dub & ska
  titles..  I think they'd actually moved it up to the shelf above the 
  display bins..  I don't think it's part of a huge movement afoot at
  Tower to reduce their import inventory (although every once in a while
  they do so..)
