THE PROMISE RING
Boys + Girls
1998 U.S. 7” single
Clear vinyl
Another from the basement.
I loved this band in the mid to late #90s . They wielded JUST my kind of #alternative #indierock , particularly on their first two albums; 30 Degrees Everywhere and Nothing Feels Good.
These two songs: “Tell Everyone We're Dead” and “Best Looking Boys” are both stellar.
This was something I definitely brought with me from Boston when I moved to Van Isle in 2007. I’m noticing that a bunch of these singles I’ve brought up from downstairs are from my collection back then.
I’m 100% certain I bought this at the Newbury Comics in the Garage in Harvard Square, and it’s still the only thing I’ve ever liked that’s come from Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

So last week I rearranged my music #studio for better #acoustics. After getting some longer USB-C cables, my USB-C hub stopped working entirely along with my webcam (USB 2.0 but regardless of port). I'll have to #troubleshoot that stuff later.
What an improvement! The #sound is so much better and the #bass just oh-so-satisfyingly hits the chest....and now I have a ridiculous amount of free space in the studio.
Wiring up the last #synthesizer and a bunch of #MIDI stuff and we should be good to go! Looking forward to making some great #music this #weekend.

PETER GABRIEL
Peter Gabriel
1978 Canada pressing
I’m spending my Friday afternoon sorting and cleaning the couple hundred 45s I took out of my basement last night.
As I start, gonna throw on some Peter Gabriel and throw on a few of the more interesting singles as I come across them.
Of the first four albums of his named “Peter Gabriel”, this one is probably the one I listen to the least. Not that I like it any less than the other three, it’s just the one I’m most unfamiliar with.
Remedying that now.

The Baul are itinerant mystic minstrels of Bengal, Bihar and Bangladesh who practise a heterodox syncretic faith. #Music and dance are integral to their oral tradition, preaching, teaching and engaging with Deha tatva (truth in the body); the body as a microcosm and sacred vessel. The ektara, a 1-string drone lute, is a common baul instrument.
This is Dub Dub Dub Rupsagore Amar Mon Performed by Parvathy Baul with a short intro and translation.

Today is Bandcamp Friday. Please support your artists by purchasing their music or physical goods today, as in Bandcamp Friday, all money goes directly to the artists without Bandcamp fee cost.
Hey y'all, it's Bandcamp Friday again, that wondrous semi-monthly holiday when Bandcamp waives its fees so more money goes to the artists. A lovely day to check out music from me or any of the other fine musicians you can find there!

THE SLITS
The Peel Sessions 1977-1978-1981
2025 Unofficial Bootleg Compilation
Today was a long-ass day.
Time to relax with some savagery.
Really great sounding unofficial press of the 9 songs from three different Peel Session appearances by The Slits.
The first four songs from their initial appearance in September of 1977 are particularly awesome.
I’m always hesitant to pick up these “Radio Broadcast” boots, but almost all of the ones from this label that I’ve bought have sounded pretty friggin great. This one is no exception.

Still on the sofa with a sore throat listening to stuff. Might actually learn all my choir parts this week if this goes on!
I'd love to learn to sing this. The hard part is not learning the melody, it's keeping the tension going all through.

SEND NO FLOWERS
Send No Flowers
1982 UK 7” single
Oh man is THIS ever rad!
This 3-song 7” by Liverpool’s Send No Flowers is their ONLY recorded output. Just this one 45 and POOF! Gone.
That’s a shame, cuz it’s really fucking cool.
The Discogs entry for this says it’s #newwave . I definitely don’t agree with that.
It leans a little bit more towards what people at this time were calling #postpunk .
It’s got flashes of some very early Cure, when they were still scrappy & punky sounding themselves. It’s also got slashing, angular guitars that are more on par with Andy Gill from Gang Of Four than it is anything you’d call “new wave”.
All of this is anchored by a dynamic female vocalist by the name of Campbell L. Sangster, who (along with her SNF band mate Jake Wakstein) would go on to be in another band I’ve never heard of (and who ALSO put out 1 recording in 1989) called Kit.

JUDAS PRIEST
The Best Of Judas Priest
1978 Canada pressing
Sometimes, when you get to the end of the day… you know exactly what needs to be done.
Tonight… it’s Judas Priest.
All the pre-#80s bangers.
And a BIZARRE added bonus…which I am completely baffled by…
There were TWO single sided card-backed flexi-discs of Bobby Sherman tucked inside?!?! Which, apparently, came on Post cereal boxes in 1972.
Now, I bought this Priest album used a LOOOONG time ago. So I guess I never really noticed they were in there to begin with.
There’s Judas Priest, and then there’s Bobby Sherman, and never the twain shall meet.
Or so you’d think.

Hey everyone, I’m Matthew Whitaker — a Grammy Award–winning, Emmy-nominated professional blind touring musician, producer, singer, songwriter, educator, and accessibility advocate.
My musical journey has led me to collaborate with incredible artists including Stevie Wonder, Christian McBride, Dr. Lonnie Smith, Kim Tibbs, and many others. You may have seen me perform on The Harry Connick Jr. Show, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Showtime at the Apollo, and on stages around the world.
I’m deeply passionate about accessibility, especially in music and technology, and I love working directly with developers and companies to help make products usable for blind musicians and creators. I’m a graduate of The Juilliard School and currently serve as Minister of Music at New Hope Baptist Church in Hackensack, New Jersey, where I was born and raised. I also teach and mentor students at the university level.
Outside of music, I’m into video and audio games, skiing, indoor rock climbing, bowling, and spending quality time with family. I’m always exploring new ideas, new sounds, and new ways to connect and build community.
Looking forward to connecting with you here.

Als Marco Campitelli vor über einem Jahrzehnt zum ersten Mal nach Oslo reiste, löste das etwas in dem Musiker aus. Die karge Schönheit der norwegischen Hauptstadt, ihr Spiel von Licht und Dunkelheit und ihr avantgardistischer Geist hinterließen einen unauslöschlichen Eindruck auf seinem gesamten kreativen Weg. Aus dieser transformativen Erfahrung entstand Oslo Tapes. Seit der Veröffentlichung seines neuesten Albums "LÅST COMET" im November gehen mir diese zehn Songs nicht mehr aus dem Kopf. Schon beim ersten Hören wusste ich, dass ich Marco unbedingt einige Fragen dazu stellen musste. Glück für euch! Ihr könnt jetzt mein exklusives Oslo Tapes Interview lesen!
Besonders spannend: Die für das Album erweiterte Besetzung begeistert mit bemerkenswerten Kollaborationen mit Künstler*innen wie Emil Nikolaisen von Serena Maneesh und The Brian Jonestown Massacre, dem legendären Motorpsycho-Schlagzeuger Håkon Gebhardt sowie einem beeindruckenden Remix von Jeff Kim Schroeder (The Smashing Pumpkins). Produziert vom verlässlichen Amaury Cambuzat (faUSt, Ulan Bator), entstand "LÅST COMET" laut Marco "aus schlaflosen Nächten und Tagen voller Stimmungsschwankungen". Natürlich habe ich Marco auch dazu Fragen gestellt!

Video Premiere: Kalyn Fay “Windsong” https://americanahighways.org/2026/02/04/video-premiere-kalyn-fay-windsong/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #music #americana #rootsmusic
Love the production on this. Think the BPM could be brought up a little, a bit too slow for me. https://youtu.be/HNn7e2MyT3A

"Rowland reveals how it is being exploited by fraudsters to manipulate streaming algorithms and siphon billions of pounds away from real musicians.
Fraudsters are using AI to mass-produce tracks and then deploying armies of bots to stream them over and over again, a system where robots listen to robot music, all to generate royalties."
The #1001albums project threw "Chicago Transit Authority" (1969) at me today.
I'm flabbergasted!
Why did I think #Chigago is a "AOR soft rock" band, I'm seriously asking how and why was I making this assumption?
This album "grooves like a horny moose" (which is my take on a finnish saying). I'm thinking I have to go thought their latter albums, I hear they kinda changed in to 80's, so maybe stop there.
