Thanks for the additional info on the Sparklehorse release. Really looking forward to hearing the whole album and your review makes it sound all the better. Never heard of fellow Canadian Miriam Gendron before. Beautiful stuff. I don't speak fluent French but the music and singing are very nice. The first two songs on the newly released last American show of Sonic Youth are intense as well. That Death Valley 69 with Kim Gordon doing the Lydia Lunch part is like a sonic eargasm. Thanks for the great bootlegs as well. I burned and have been playing the Television 1978 show you put up a while back in my old car. I find that's what I do with a lot of Bandcamp stuff. Make these killer (to me) mix cd's. Some great listening today for a rainy morning here in rural Ontario.
BTW I was lucky enough to see Sparklehorse live in 1998 in Vancouver at a defunct club called the Starfish Club. I got to see Elliott Smith there as well (same year) and
Guided By Voices played there around the same time and their 'The Club Is Open' flourescent sign up behind them. Mark was in a wheelchair then. I was listening to Good Morning Spider a lot and I remember it was a great show. Brings back a lot of memories! Ghosts lost in time.
Buried the lede! Really glad to scroll down and find Big Star!
