While these songs have a built in appeal simply because of the bands that are involved, none of the contributions truly reflect the unique skills of these artists. A wasted opportunity.

The neverending trove of dusty psychedelic treasures continues to be dug out. That's not to say we don't encounter cobwebs along the way.Between Nuggets, Pebbles, Back From the Grave, and the cottage industry they’ve spawned, one would think all of the obscure psychedelic chestnuts would have been salvaged from history’s dustbin. (Has there been a Chestnuts compilation yet?) If anything, the w

When I got this I didn't realize just how many compilations of world music that French label Buda puts out. That aside this is kind of a hypnotic and trippy album. 19 tracks of Mongolian music. I had put off getting it for a couple of years but I finally did a month ago. I had it on a list. It's very interesting and made me have strange thoughts. The recordings are top notch. That's abou...

I'm kinda proud of the fact that it only took a few extra days away from the ol' grindstone to refresh the fact that the time vortex doesn't rule as imperceptibly as he'd like us to believe. In fact, his mannequin-ruse may be no more meaningful than blunt force trauma or an ambien-haze, which is to say, a cool, fresh breeze and a shady spot are about as contemplative as a mountaintop monastery...

Review: "I'm Not There" Soundtrack
over 2 years ago

Various ArtistsI’m Not There OSTColumbiaWe set up the drums and amps on the worn carpet in the living room of my parents suburban house, the house I’d lived in for all of my 17 years. It was Spring, 1971 and I was playing an off-brand solid body electric guitar I’d bought at a second hand shop in Mill Valley for $25 with a trebly sound that approximated that of a Fender Strat: Dylan’s weap

Fourteen hymns from the heavenly church of rare groove.An experimental musician I know used to brand himself as a “Christian noise artist”. Whenever we would tell noise dudes about upcoming shows in the era, they’d always sit kind of po-faced until the mention of a “Christian noise artist”, which would perk their ears right up. You see, noise is not a very religious scene. In fact, much
