On this week's show:

New Rock Album: Grizzly Bear, *Veckatimest* (2009) . . . the new album by this Brooklyn band did not hit me at first, but I think that is because I had to learn how to listen to it . . . dance with its music . . . at times slow, and strange in its ways . . . move with it as though each dance step has never been taken before, as though no dance step had been taken before . . .

Classic Rock Album: The Byrds, *Dr. Byrds & Mr. Hyde* (1969) . . . coming upon the defection of many of the original members, this album has all sorts of surprising treats on it . . . what makes the Byrds a compelling band is they take their stellar musicianship in all sort of directions . . . they make music that sometimes takes its place at acid parties, and sometimes on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry . . . they're just that great . . .

Storybook Time: Chapter Thirty-four of Breaking Open the Head: A Psychedelic Journey into the Heart of Contemporary Shamanism by Daniel Pinchbeck . . .

Readings from *Labyrinthine* fixtion & *Many Musics* poems . . . & this week's featured artist is the Dukes of Stratosphear and cuts from their legendary 1985 psychedelic album *25 O'Clock* (psst . . . if you know the secret of the Dukes, don't tell!) . . . this week's broadcast marks this show's 200th on SpiritPlants Radio since coming on board in 2004 . . . I don't know what big numbers like that mean, since each show is built from the ground up and let fly one at a time . . . I do know that my gratefulness to everyone who has supported my show and the station over the years is boundless...

On this week's show:

New Rock Album: Young Fresh Fellows, *I Think This Is* (2009)...this Seattle band rocks it old school, what with the bright, banging guitars and the warped lyrics...a warm, strange, funny, and dear sound...I wonder how I could have lived in Seattle for years and missed out on them, but they haven't had an album out in 8 years, so maybe that's why...feeling lucky to have found them...

Classic Rock Album: The Fuzztones, *Lysergic Emanations* (1985)...holy cow! what a week for discovering musical treasures! This NYC band rocked the mid-80s like it was the mid-60s...their debut album roars breathlessly through a dozen crunching, crying, wildly unbalanced songs that could charm the shit from a corpse, and probably tried back in the day...ridiculously good!

Storybook Time: Continuing Chapter Thirty-four of *Breaking Open the Head: A Psychedelic Journey into the Heart of Contemporary Shamanism* by Daniel Pinchbeck . . .

Readings from *Labyrinthine* fixtion & *Many Musics* poems . . . & this week's featured artist is World of Oz, cuts from their 1969 self-titled sole album, an obscure, loopy psychedelic pop release . . . and here's a pointed observation: this show has finished celebrating its various milestones (anniversaries, numbers of shows), & I am glad to say this particular broadcast has nothing more or less going for it than some fucking hot tunes and whatever else I can toss into the fire! heh . . .

On this week's show:

New Rock Album: Eels, *Hombre Loco: 12 Songs of Desire* (2009) . . . It is not often that an album of love songs works its music in ways as magical as this one does . . . think of Beck's *Sea Change* from 2002 . . .  this American band led by singer/songwriter E has produced an album of ballads and rockers that flows seamlessly from start to finish, laying out in lovely music and artfully simple words the dark, sticky, sometimes beautiful, sometimes grotesque, facts and fugues of the human heart . . .

Classic Rock Album: Camper Van Beethoven, *Camper Van Beethoven* (1986) . . . such a glorious relic from an often dark and charmless time, CVB seem interested in playing every esoteric instrument they can find (such as pedal steel guitar, banjo, tablas and sitar), and coupling their music with the good times trippy cracked goofiness of lead singer David Lowery's lyrics . . . you may not understand every scene through the window, but the ride will have you tapping toes and smiling . . .

Storybook Time: Continuing Chapter Thirty-four of *Breaking Open the Head: A Psychedelic Journey into the Heart of Contemporary Shamanism* by Daniel Pinchbeck . . .

Readings from *Labyrinthine* fixtion & *Many Musics* poems . . . & this week's featured artist is Santana and cuts from their incendiary performance at the Woodstock Music Festival in 1969, what turned them from an obscure Latino band into rock legends . . . past halfway of this truly strange year and most of us are still here, still making our ways forward a step and another and a few more at a time . . . we're still on the big path, wherever it is bound . . .
