djh said: Oh you know I'll buy the cd; in fact almost did just now but being in the mail order game I don't like over £9 shipping for a small digi-pack box posted from London to London. I still think that they over sell it's importance but taking the material from master tapes would have won me over. One of the lessons here is that I'd already read that review, but the first time it moved me not a jot; Sunday mornings are of course a different kettle of fish.
One of the artists that makes me break my own rules about clearing out the house of all of this extra detritus, is Sun Ra. ...and so I keep all of the discs and special Saturns with all of the Ra and Co. scribbles on them, etc. as well as the addition of newly compiled and recently discovered items in differing forms. So, the singles downloads are already here and the LPs, CDs and 7 inches should be arriving soon. They'll find a place near the Ra books, perfumes, statues, "hot dog sauce" container and all of the other special packaging stuff and so on...
Playing Christmas music is more likely to make folk mad in my house, even at Christmas. I could see us playing this one at Christmas, though. Hold on, maybe not track 3.
Generally I wait until December arrives before playing Christmas music, but some shops started weeks ago, the same old stuff that has been around here for so long that GP would probably recognise the mix!
One of the pop/rock highlights of 2016, with no doubt . . .
Sound excerpts from the track "The Marble" appearing on
the forthcoming Svarte Greiner LP "Moss Garden", following in the
footsteps of 2013´s "Black Tie" with 2 new sidelong pieces of zen music
for disturbed souls.

I trust this refers to the length of my absence from the UK rather than the notion that I am old ;-)
NP: Sun Ra - Singles. I like the instrumentals better than the shouty tracks.

Well you got me there. My second (first??) ever Ra record was a Saturn bought from Recommended Records. The white card cover had silver glitter glued to it. Except for all the silver glitter that was in the vinyl grooves... My wife has been "huckstered" to the tune of £25 for one of Knoel Scott's cdr's of standards played live in a lounge in Alaska with a pick-up band (Dang if I haven't made that sound good!) and we've both eaten Moon Stew. More power to Mr Allen and the crew. Just remembered I talked briefly with Marshall a coulpe of years back. Three day residency at Cafe Oto and I only made the last night. I asked him how it had been... "It was jumping baby! It was JUMPING!!!"
Started out as an original track. Used Somei Satoh's
Violin Concerto for samples ( Melody aswell as one track being the
concerto played and manipulated by the microgranny). 'Noisy'
Field-recording background and the glitchy oud samples towards the end
played through the microgranny aswell.
Tried putting this presley
tune over what I had and sounded alright, so I added a piano track for
harmony and changed some of the original stuff to go a bit better with
it and ended up with this.

Maybe I'm biased because I know Rune, but he is getting better and better . . .
