On this week's show:

New Rock Album: Delta Spirit, *Ode to Sunshine* (2008) . . . this new San Diego band effuses a sweet, sometimes sharp, Southern California wit & ethos . . . their lead singer Matthew Vasquez has a voice that really gets into the best of a song's potential & coaxes it out, time after time . . . and as a group they punch out the old-time rock-and-roll values: liberation, tolerance, curiosity, fun...

Classic Rock Album: Skip Bifferty, *Skip Bifferty* (1968) . . . this British band was only around for about a year or so in the late '60s but managed to produce a tight, trippy, smart as fuck psychedelic album . . . their music is classic acid rock, both hard and soft . . . their lyrics return again and again to the struggle of the working man and woman, to life's traps, to the freedom many found and still find in rhythms & melodies . . .

Storybook Time: Chapter Thirty-eight 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 Loose Fur, (a band whose members include Jeff Tweedy and Glenn Kotche of the band Wilco, and Wilco collaborator Jim O'Rourke), and cuts from their amazing 2003 self-titled debut album . . . sweet autumn travels along, spreading, deepening, a multitudinous beauty to be drunk quietly alone, or noisily in great bunches!

On this week's show:

New Rock Album: The Dodos, *Time to Die* (2009) . . . it was just a month ago that this show featured this California band's 2008 album, *Visiter*, & I did not know at the time that they had a new one about to come out . . . that album was great but this new one is amazing, as in fuck-ing amazing . . . an acoustic-driven, quirky-instrument decorated, darkly lyrical, flat-out psychedelic rock masterpiece, easily one of the best albums of 2009 or really any year . . . period . . .

Classic Rock Album: Manfred Mann's Earth Band, *Manfred Mann's Earth Band* (1972) . . . a previous incarnation of this band from the '60s, known simply as Manfred Mann, scored a few big hits, including a cover of Bob Dylan's "The Mighty Quinn" . . . a shift in style & moniker in the early '70s led to this self-titled album . . . musically it taps into R&B, folk, straight-ahead rock, but there is something else going on here, a brew that comes out humorous, sad, visionary, an album that has creates its own path & drives it with fury & kindness . . .

Storybook Time: Continuing Chapter Thirty-eight 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 Eagles, a quartet of excellent songs from their 1994 *Hell Freezes Over* reunion album . . . from deep in the autumn a stirring to hope & to action, toward the easiest, brightest of things, and toward the harder ones . . . a wish to range bravely across the map of human possibilities, and fear nothing, nothing at all . . .

On this week's show:

New Rock Album: Monsters of Folk, *Monsters of Folk* (2009) . . . call them the "Indie Rock Wilburys," a brand new supergroup consisting of Jim James from My Morning Jacket, Conor Oberst and Mike Mogis from Bright Eyes and M. Ward . . . their eponymous debut album is a grand delight of rocking, folking, idiosyncratic treats . . . one of 2009's especial treats . . .

Classic Rock Album: Love and Rockets, *Earth, Sun, Moon* (1987) . . . this British band had a run on the college rock charts in the late 1980s . . . this album was a peak of this period, an acoustic deliciously trippy album, at odds with so much of the rock of the period . . . yet twenty-plus years later it holds up and still shines . . .

Storybook Time: Continuing Chapter Thirty-eight 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 Monkees, cuts from the soundtrack to their 1968 psychedelic cult classic film, *Head* . . . the autumn has arrived in the Pacific Northwest, a familiar gorgeous music, new, timeless . . . a happiness in colors no human hand has wrought . . .
