The "Repo Man" soundtrack has some beauts, including "El Hombre Secreto" (Secret Agent Man all revved up and Mexxed out) and a lengthy monologue called "Bad Man," the final line of which is so godawful they wouldn't even put it in the flick.

Oh no, someone upstairs has an acoustic guitar and he's fumbling his way through some barre chords and there is a sound like someone strangling a cat while toxic waste goes down a half-clogged drain which must be singing.

If this keeps up I'm moving to Montana.

^ great stuff wooly,
I'd thought I'd seen the name somewhere before - then that Quietus article says he was a member of The Sperm
Their album is a bit of oddball classic and the original vinyl used to fetch good money ( about £35 in the 1990s but it's around £15 these days as it's been re-issued).

Just came across this wonderful piece of Zappa on the Steve Allen Show 1963, some tab collars, button downs, slim cut suits and weird sounds.

In college 1980-84 Pylon was a rumor, a phantasm. Everybody had heard of them, read about them, but nobody had their records and they never seemed to play anywhere remotely near central Ohio.

That changed later with the "Athens, Ga. Inside Out" movie and soundtrack. This was the Pylon song on that disc:

ooh Pylon , their ironically titled singles compilation album 'hits' was a cracker.
They sit next to The Feelies in my 'odd American pop' bit of my library.

Patrick · 2016-12-30 08:55:34

There's a new Feelies album coming out in February I think

Patrick · 2016-12-31 07:04:33

Not really super weird or way way out but the Parquet Courts (aka Parkay Quarts) are burning it up in Stateside indieland. They are the new Strokes, except the PCs have put out five discs total now and have improved; the Strokes put out one good record and then everybody started having sex and they lost it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UYm61bsM14

And unlike the Strokes, who were horrible live, the PCs can play some, at least when in Seattle and confronted with an audience of the eager, the organic, the heritage, the artisanal.

I remember when you couldn't throw a brick without hitting a boombox playing "Amplifier."

I wanted to see the Feelies in Kingston, N.Y. last summer but nobody wanted to go and I'll be damned if I'm going to wander into a rock and roll show by myself.

^ Yes, I got sick of "Amplifier" in fairly short order.

I used to have a Chris Stamey EP that had the most ramshackle tune on it, something about it wasn't God who made honky-tonk music, and I can't find it anywhere in this digital age.

I went to see Wilco by myself several years back and it was distinctly uncomfortable to be the oldest guy in the room, by a decade at least. Like hanging around the elementary school playground.

Patrick · 2017-01-03 09:43:29

Another band that's not necessarily weird or way out, though they try, is Stereolab. I like the more guitar-based, droning songs more than the sort of groovy ersatz jazz background music. Great for driving.
