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

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

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.

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.)

This is just another reason to wish I liked Sigur Ros, I guess.

Well, I've been really enjoying their album but it took me a while
to warm to it.

La Bergere, "Ouvarosa." A project with singer Sylvie Berger, who
works with Evelyne Girardon; accordion player Emmanuel Pariselle, who had
a great LP almost 20 years ago and who I have been looking for more
stuff from ever since; with the great Gabriel Yacoub in the background.
Yacoub wrote some songs, sings some background, plays some stuff,
produced, and released it on his own label. I had to send off an
international money order for this one, it just came in today's mail.
As I'd hoped, it's fairly reminiscent of Malicorne -- more so than
Yacoub's recent solo work. But it's also more chanson-style
where Malicorne went more towards early music. Only four tracks in
so far, of course.

Coope Boyes & Simpson, "Twenty-Four Seven." Jawdroppingly good album
from English acapella communists. :) I'm going to have to go back
and pick up some of their albums which I skipped.

Sandy Denny, "Full Moon" (in honour of the full moon tonight)
Gentle music, rock away the sadnesses in me.
Rock away my lonely yesterdays
Like pennies on the ocean
'Til no trace of them I see,
'Til moonlight shows no ripples on the waves.
And then the clear reflection will remain,
Perhaps the same reflection of that same full moon.

"Camelot Motel" by Mary Gauthier (Say "go-SHAY," y'all) off her new CD, FILTH
& FIRE.
This disc is every bit as good as what I'd been hearing for the past couple
of months via BBC Radio. Definitely my favourite disc of the Summer so far.

La Vole'e de Castors, "VDC." The band name translates as "A Flock of
Beavers" and they are from Quebec; similar in basic sound to La Bottine
Souriante but they play some interesting tricks with the rhythm and
toss a sitar into one track. Another BBC-inspired purchase which
arrived in the mail while I was in Colorado.

Tito Puente, "Dance Party". Time for me to get heavily involved in Latin
music.
