I like the long prelude to Dark Star, they kind of hinted at Wharf Rat and some other stuff.

You can tell that most of the band(all but Phil) havn't been playing this material for the requisite 40 years(so far, as Phil reminds us). It's always a trade off between freshness and familiarity.

Long live Phil Lesh!!

Listening to some Marie Boine, Norwegian aboriginal

"8 Seasons breaks new ground for Mari Boine,  produced by jazz keyboardist Bugge Wesseltoft, who brings more jazz sensibility and a more electronic edge"

I be spinning some sets this afternoon by the likes of Peter Rowan, Jerry Douglas and Tony Rice messing around together back at the turn of the millennia. Tony sure is slick on the gat. Jerry's just a monster on the dobro and Peter Rowan can spin a yarn with the best of them.....

There's this Los Angeles psychedelic rock band from '67-'69 called the West Coast Pop Art Experimentation Band I've been into the past few days. They remind me of New York's Velvet Underground from the same time, dark, kind of twisted, very melodic when not outright terrifying. Very obsessing once you get hooked. They made five albums in their time, worth looking for in whatever way you find your music  :twisted:

I've been listening to the Hashisheen album today.. Very nice and mellow music and mood. http://www.donshewey.com/2002_zine/HASHISHEEN.html <-- Here's some info behind that album.

Of other albums has been Mantaray - Numinous Island, and some various old LPs of Ten Years After, Jefferson Airplane and stuff like that.

I can't stop playing everything randomly. I did stop the other day and play 4 of the 6 CDs of the Beatles Ultra Rare Trax collection. "Get Back" sung in German was the most memorable. But at the moment, it's "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker," Ramones, 1979/10/13 - Northwestern University. I wonder what's next...

Zaum is an off shoot of the famous (or infamous, if you will) TOOL.
They are a side project of Danny Carey's (TOOL's percusionist). The member list also  includes Chris Pitman, Vince DeFranco, Marco Fox. They only cut a demo album with just a few tracks but they are surely an interesting act! Danny is one of the most amazing drummers!
I think Zaum was Danny's as well as TOOL's  inspiration for some of the live instrumentals that were recorded for the Salival CD/DVD set.
My favorite tracks are Apparatus & MerKaBa.

Below is a link to one of the hottest dead shows I ever caught. Unfortunately, I'm listening to it for the first time ever right now. I had no idea the show was as smoking as it is. This was the day I ended up in the medical tent behind the stage with a severe case of acid refulx while the opening act, David Lindley was finishing up. I remember my buddy, Chet pulling me out of the pound before the Dead came on. As far as the actual show goes, I remember lounging in front of the stage when Phil made the comment of the band taking longer between songs than earlier in their career. And I distinctly remember Bobby being the hold up.  After that he manically tuned his gat between songs and raced up to the mic like a sprinter at the line. But I don't remember jack-shite about ANY of the stone-cold jams that are melting my speakers as I type....

I just got a couple of new CDs:

"Heliopolis" by Filteria. Good new goa trance. Lots of energy.
"Vibration Four" by Midijum Records. It's a progressive and psychedelic trance compilation. Kind of laid-back.
