No, I haven't heard of Lil Band O Gold. The samples sound fun. Saw Steve Riley at New Orleans Jazz Fest awhile back (before Katrina).

@NankerP, really like Geraint Watkins - Dial W For Watkins. Didn't realize he he had a newer one. Folks who like latter day Nick Lowe will dig Geraint. Also like CC Adcock, th…

@selfrisinmojo: big thanks for posting all your great off-the-beaten path finds on amie! Lots of good stuff to explore.

@elwoodicious Actually the opposite! I thought Ten Ragas To A Disco Beat seemed so obscure that I'd point it out. How did you find about it? Got to admit that the title i…

Thanks Mutantis. I've been pretty regular at scanning your lists, but the joy seemed to go with the Sony drop. When you used to post the lists on emu, there were regular responses to your threads with people pointing out the interesting ones in th…

Kayo Dot - Coyote on Hydra Head. Their first album was on Tzadik. The vocals don't do much for me, but track 4 sounds great. 12 nps on emu. Currently cheap on amie.

Already over $3, Arrington De Dionyso is one of my faves from last year. Try to imagine a mix of Captain Beefheart, Tuvan throat singing and no wave…

Big Noise from Nicaragua is a good one. I like the gamelan influence.

Post-rock is as useful a term as post-punk. Post-punk was heavily used in the late 80's and 90's. As the music have shifted a bit since then, post-rock has taken over as the new generalized music style. Next decade it will be post-pop, post-indie…

Good recs on the Henrys and David Hidalgo & Louie Perez.
In a different vein: Moon Duo - Escape. Suicide/VU inspired rock from side project of Wooden Shjips. -
I've heard of Zorn's reputation for being a prick especially in concert. What do you expect of someone who did a song named "Jazz Snob Eat Shit"? But he's made some really good music. The problem is that he's overly prolific and hard to keep up …

I love this album: Extra Golden - OK-Oyot System

I love This New Generation. I had The President on vinyl and was happy to get this comp on CD. -
More cosmosis: I recently added this to my SFL list after seeing it on the Wire Best Of 2009 list.

I'm guessing that ILX is the I Love Music message board. I checked it out a couple years ago and forgot about it. Will have to check it out again.

I've been meaning to get Cluster & Eno for awhile now. I'll have to move it up my list. BTW, it's 9 credits.
I'm not sure about describing Cluster as shoe-gaze. They've been around nearly as long as Eno. They fit more squarely in… -
Thanks for posting Wire's top 50. Their list didn't look available to non-subscribers so appreciate that you transcribed it. From the list, I found that two in Top of 2009 lists Comment by hoosfoos December 2009

9 / 60 on emu.
10 / 50 on pitchfork.
12 / 50 / on TMT.
Agreed that the TMT list is worth more exploration. Of the three, it has the most left field entries. I even noticed that one of the reviews is written by Elliott Sharp… -
