On this week's show:

New Rock Album: Rusted Root, *Stereo Rodeo* (2009) . . . somehow I missed this legendary jam band from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, until now . . . funky multi-instrumentalists with the ability to go deep, serious, then turn it around fine & funny . . . their new album is a groovy flowing treat . . . they even take a turn at covering an old Elvis Presley song & rock it out. . .  I'll be keeping an ear out for this band for both future records and tour dates!

Classic Rock Album: The Open Mind, *The Open Mind* (1969) . . . this UK band released one impressive album, a nearly-forgotten psychedelic gem that is worth reviving . . . there are some trippy nuggets here, as tales of time machines, magic potions, & greek gods intertwine with songs of love & longing . . . a lysergic dream voyage for drifting on a Saturday afternoon or evening . . .

Storybook Time: Chapter Two of *The Brotherhood of Eternal Love, From Flower Power to Hippie Mafia: The Story of the LSD Counterculture* by Stewart Tendler & David May . . .

Readings from *Labyrinthine* fixtion & *Many Musics* poems . . . & this week's featured artist is the Marshall Tucker Band, some of their finest country-rock classics from the 1970s . . . starting this program's 12th year with some very exciting music & texts, a pathless passing through the hours . . . come along . . .

On this week's show:

New Rock Album: , *Spoon* (2010) This Austin, Texas's third appearance on this show (following up 6/18/2005's *Gimme Fiction* & 7/28/2007's *Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga*) . . . I'll admit it took me a few spins to warm up to their new album but I did . . . Spoon's style is somewhat roundabout, drawling, but their sound keeps sticking deeper in . . . first one song, then a few, then all of them in a flood . . . they damned well know how to rock . . .  

Classic Rock Album: Can, *Monster Movie* (1969) . . . One of the first so-called "Krautrock" bands that came into being in Germany in the late 1960s, Can's debut album is an amazing journey, at times droney, at times thumpingly mad, it climaxes with the 20-minute long psychedelic epic "Yoo Doo Right" which, the Wikipedia tells us, was edited down from a six-hour improvisation . . . this one is for the hardcore travelers in the further realms, lysergic & otherwise . . .

Storybook Time: Continuing Chapter Two of *The Brotherhood of Eternal Love, From Flower Power to Hippie Mafia: The Story of the LSD Counterculture* by Stewart Tendler & David May . . .

Readings from *Labyrinthine* fixtion & *Many Musics* poems . . . & this week's featured artist is Steve Winwood, a long-time favorite of this show, & some great cuts from his 1970s & 1980s solo work . . . once upon a time, not long ago, this show was the lone bloom in SpiritPlants Radio's fields . . . now it stands happy & fine among a wide-ranging bouquet . . . sweet smells all around . . .

On this week's show:

New Rock Album: Wye Oak, *The Knot* (2009) . . . This Baltimore indie rock duo's 2008 debut album, *If Children*, was played on the 4/19/2008 broadcast of this show . . . their follow up is darker, and just as good . . . between the trippy rock fuzziness of the music, and the rich weirdness of Jenn Wasner's lead vocals, the band sounds like cousins to the legendary Mazzy Star . . . they are approaching that level of greatness as well . . .

Classic Rock Album: Dan Fogelberg, *Phoenix* (1980) . . . Fogelberg made too many great rockers in the 1970s and 1980s to be cast simply as another singer/songwriter of the time . . . this album finds him during that time of artistic and commercial success, releasing hit singles backed by great albums if one went looking . . . his vision is romantic, poetic, visionary, but there is in the man too a solidity, be the song sweet and lovely or rocking hard . . . I was around 17 or so when I first heard this album, and returning to it years later I better hear its suffering and its joys . . .

Storybook Time: Continuing Chapter Two of *The Brotherhood of Eternal Love, From Flower Power to Hippie Mafia: The Story of the LSD Counterculture* by Stewart Tendler & David May . . .

Readings from *Labyrinthine* fixtion & *Many Musics* poems . . . & this week's featured artist is Pisces, an obscure rock trio from Rockford, Illinois, and some sweet cuts from *A Lovely Sight*, best described as a recent compilation of their songs which back in 1969 were not released as an album . . . it's still February, which in the Northern Hemisphere means cold, and in the Pacific Northwest means wet and grey most of the time . . . still, the buds outside my window are starting to appear, and I will look at them gladly when broadcasting this show . . .
