Ακούσατε το νέο δίσκο του Iggy με τις διασκευές (Après)? Εγώ άκουσα κάποια και σας βάζω τη διασκευή του Michelle των Beatles... Αυτό μου αρέσει αλλά όταν τραγουδάει γαλλικά με την αμερικάνικη προφορά του... (La vie en rose κλπ π.χ. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyiTXSDo2dc&feature=relmfu) δεν ξέρω... η προφορά του είναι άθλια ενώ η γαλλική γλώσσα (για μένα είναι τόσο ωραία...) αυτό που σώζει τα κομμάτια είναι εεε οι μελωδίες τους και η χροιά της ιδιαίτερης φωνής του Iggy...γιατί; γιατί το έκανε αυτό; (καλό μήνα κιόλας)

The Charlatans were an influential psychedelic rock band that played a role in the development of the San Francisco music scene during the 1960s and are often cited by critics as being the first group to play in the style that became known as the San Francisco Sound. Exhibiting more pronounced jug band, country and blues influences than many bands from the same scene, the Charlatans’ rebellious attitude and distinctive, late 19th century fashions exerted a major influence on the Summer of Love in San Francisco. Their recorded output was small, with their first album, "The Charlatans", not being released until 1969, some years after the band's heyday.

From "Heartland" lp (1986, Black Sand Records/Zippo Records).
Blacky Ranchette is the alter ego of Howe Gelb, Giant Sand's front man and Band of Blacky Ranchette's wrangler. The first Band of Blacky Ranchette album was released way back in 1983. It was recorded for 400 dollars and was largely a Rainer Ptacek and Howe Gelb notion. The second Blacky record 1986’s "Heartland" was followed three years later by the third, "Sage Advice". These records all predated the "Alt Country" movement by a decade at least.
"We would all come together and play this brand of western music because we loved it. We were reckless and young… trying to deliver some element of the old country records that we thought were so great". - Howe Gelb

A Winged Victory For The Sullen is the first installment of the new collaboration between Stars Of The Lid member Adam Wiltzie and L.A. composer Dustin O’Halloran. The duo agreed to develop the recordings with the help of large acoustic spaces, hunting down a selection of 9ft grand pianos that had the ability to deliver extreme sonic low end. Other traditional instrumentation was used including string quartet, French horn, and bassoon, but always juxtaposed is the sound of drifting guitar washed melodies. Notable guest musicians include Icelandic cellist Hildur Gudnadottir, as well as Erased Tapes label comrade Peter Broderick on violin.
