    NINA SIMONE
    Great Women Of Song
    2023 U.S. Compilation

    Speaking of comfort…

    There’s never a bad time for Nina.

    Every year, when Summer is winding down, and I can feel the Fall weather starting to creep in, there’s a handful of artists and albums that I go to that, in my mind, are synonymous with the season for me.

    Nina is definitely one of them.

    This is another one from my California trip that I found in a used bin for really cheap, so of course I gave it a home. Pretty dsmn good compilation.

    Who the fuck gets rid of Nina Simone records?!?!

        BOBBIE GENTRY
        Ode To Billy Joe
        1967 Germany pressing

        One of my all-time comfort records.
        The childhood memories that come flooding back as soon as “Mississippi Delta” kicks in are crazy.

        This was one of those albums that a few of my uncles adored, so wherever I was over there (which was a lot), I heard it.

        These songs were tattooed on my brain from a very early age, and I fell in love with them, too. I was mystified by Gentry’s voice. Simultaneously comforting, soulful AND powerful.

        One of those records that is a warm reminder of a much simpler time for your dear old friend Ape.

          SMASHING PUMPKINS
          Siamese Dream
          2025 Europe 2xLP reissue
          Red Smoke

          I still have my original 1993 pressing of this, and it still sounds great.
          However, seeing that this is one of my all-time favorite rock albums PERIOD, I figured it wood be good to have a secondary back up play copy.

          I’m very pleased with how this sounds. It’s dead quiet, dynamic, and Jimmy’s drums sound phenomenal.

          As an added bonus, they used the ORIGINAL cover for it, not those bullshit miscolored reflective covers that previous reissues of the first two albums used.

          I will never get sick of listening to Siamese Dream, and I fully realize that it was lightning in a bottle, never to be repeated.
          Now that Billy Corgan has entered dinosaur legacy mode, hosting podcasts, and making far inferior new music (some of it very bad), we’ll never hear the likes of THIS kind of album again.

                                                  Patch The Sky
                                                  2016 U.S. pressing

                                                  My absolute musical hero.
                                                  No songwriter has ever had a greater impact on my life than Bob.
                                                  Whether it be Husker Du, Sugar, or his solo albums, Bob’s impact on my life could never truly be measured.
                                                  I owe the entirety of my creative life to him.

                                                  This run of six albums that Bob’s been on has been nothing short of miraculous. From Silver Age straight up to this year’s Here We Go Crazy, Bob has been as big, melodic, angry and vital sounding as ever.

                                                  Of these last six phenomenal records, this one is my favorite. Every single song is incredible. From the opening notes of “Voices In My Head”, it DOES NOT LET UP.

                                                  “Hold On” might be my favorite Bob song ever not named “Egooverride”.

                                                  When Bob passes on, there will be a part of me that breaks that will never be repaired.

                                                      One good dive deserves another.

                                                      I guess today will just be a Slowdive-heavy day. Which is more than ok with me.

                                                      The first of the Slowdive 2.0 albums.
                                                      And even though I like it slightly less than the follow-up, I remember hearing it for the first time and thinking “Oh thank god! It sounds really really great!”

                                                      I guess I didn’t know what to expect when I read it was coming out, but I needn’t have worried.

                                                      Glacial, dreamy, melodic, shoegaze FOREVER AND EVER.
                                                      Amen.

                                                            Revisiting one of my favorite albums of 2023.

                                                            SLOWDIVE 2.0 has been a very satisfying experience. Since reforming in 2014, the band has put out two very excellent records, of which Everything Is Alive is my favorite.

                                                            It’s safe to say they will never quite make a record that will capture people’s attention again in the way Souvlaki did, but the great thing about making a magnificent piece of art like that is that it allows you the grace and good will to KEEP making records. I think people will always be interested in hearing a new SLOWDIVE record.
                                                            Particularly when they’re this excellent.

                                                                One of the true PURE artists of our time.
                                                                Peter Gabriel is singular in everything he does. There’s no mistaking him for anybody else. When you hear him, you know it’s HIM.

                                                                Those first four self titled Peter albums are astonishing. It’s hard to listen to just one without immediately going for another as soon as it’s over.

                                                                In the case of this one, three of my top ten PG songs are found here in “DIY”, “Animal Magic”, and “Exposure” (huge bonus points for the production job by Robert Fripp, and his “Frippertronics” on “Exposure”).

                                                                                In my youth this was like a bible for me and my friends. We watched it over and over again on VHS. It must have been one of the very few copies in our state, Queensland in Australia (a right wing conservative nightmare in the 1970s and 80s). The singer Gibby Haynes became a teacher, who dearranged our minds with words. I had a (beautiful) dog called Gibby, a better friend nobody could ask for.

                                                                                Here it is, direct from Austen Texas via the Sandoz Labs and in a brilliant display of psychedelic punk.

                                                                                The band is working two drum kits in tribal unison. King Coffey and

The light and projections are mind blowing. !00 Million People Dead is a drone and rhythm triumph. Paul Leary the guitarist is a genius. The use of samples and vocal effects by Gibby changes language and ultimatley thinking. The mock interview while the band lie in bed semi naked and seemingly high is a journey through deep and surreal caverns of wonderment.

                                                                                Enjoy

                                                                                                            They’re tackle killer songs by Robert Johnson, Willie Dixon, Woody Guthrie, and others.

                                                                                                            The REAL gem here is the cover of Prince’s “Raspberry Beret”, which is just astonishing. It’s something I’ve found myself listening to more than the original these last few years. It’s so good.

                                                                                                            A bit of a hard-to-come-by record this is, so if you come across it, grab it. It’s worth every single penny, I promise. This is one of those records you gotta hear on vinyl. It sounds unbelievable.

                                                                                                            Kind of bittersweet ending to the story, as Zevon and R.E.M. kind of had a falling out due to the album’s release.

                                                                                                              Cleansing will always be my favorite Prong album.

                                                                                                              I skipped school the morning it came out and walked to my local Good Vibrations to buy it on cassette.

                                                                                                              I remember the first time I heard “Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck”. I thought “Holy fucking shit! That song is AWESOME!”
                                                                                                              To this day, it’s one of my favorite songs of that entire decade.

                                                                                                              It took me a good couple days to get past the first side of that tape. The first four songs of Cleansing are like a glorious sledgehammer. They’re so damn good!

                                                                                                              And again, I can’t stress how incredible these MOV reissues are, both how they sound AND look, including beautiful linen laminate covers.

                                                                                                              Hands down my favorite reissues of the year.

                                                                                                                          Back in 2001, when I moved out of NYC back to my hometown of Boston, I was 23, broken, broke, and completely dead inside (for many horrific reasons which we won’t get into here).

                                                                                                                          My job was kind enough to transfer me from my Times Square gig to HARVARD Square in Cambridge, and every day, I rode the commuter rail to South Station, and then the Red Line train with THIS in my ears for almost a year.

                                                                                                                          This album excited me in a way that a rock record hadn’t in a very long time, and was a pivotal part in putting my life back together. It gave me the inspiration and strength to rebuild a foundation in my life strong enough, and ensbled me to leave for Vancouver Island 6 years later.

                                                                                                                          I got to meet Roddy Woomble around 2017 and got to tell him this, and he seemed genuinely moved.

                                                                                                                                  I know The Sopranos is The Best TV Show Of All Time™, but I've never seen it.

                                                                                                                                  Not trying to start beef with any Alabama 3 diehards out there, but Nas' version is so much better.

But it was a very nice lesson. :) I get to loan a better dulcian than the one I had before, in order to attend a workshop next weekend. It was sooo much easier to play on a better instrument!

                                                                                                                                        The teacher compared playing on a bad instrument to trying to balance a marble on a tray. That is spot on! On my old dulcian the pitch will just not stay stable.

You're literally, pitching ideas for a song that will be generated for you and nothing else. Writing a song involves coming up with a melody, arranging notes in a way that would sound appealing to the ears of the listener, choose from the several types of harmonies that are available to you based on your melody, write chord progressions and much more.
                                                                                                                                                                Writing a song is a lot bigger and a lot more significant than just generating a song with AI. Even if you write the whole lyrics yourself, you're still not writing a song by the way.
