Yes, I have heard this is simply amazing. It's next on my list of things
to buy.
Anyway, who saw mr. connors at the tora tora tora festival in atlanta?
I liked him a good deal, but I was blown away by the silver apples (well,
simeon). I cannot believe they were doing that in 1968. I thought it
made every band influenced by them look weak by comparison. Stereolab
wishes they were that good, though jessamine does a pretty good job with
the influence.
Oh, I've heard a rumor that, of all labels, grand royal might re-release
the two silver apples lps. I know it is (or was) in print on cd by some
european label but it was around $30 which was out of my price range. I
hope it goes through...
And did I also heard that dee-lite song "groove in the heart" samples the
drums from a silver apples song. Wierd.
