Milk n Cookies

February 20, 2010 | In Music

Milk n Cookies – Tinkertoy Tomorrow. 1975. These guys were on the scene in CBGB’s along side The Ramones and the Talking Heads . So good.

This song is pretty key. Album is great as well.

Wikipedia says ‘Glam Rock’ last.fm says ‘Long Islands finest contribution to Wimp Rock’. Haha. I like that a lot.

Bowie’s In Space

February 20, 2010 | In Inspiration, Music, Music Video, Video

Original 1969 video for space oddity with the original recording of the song that’s more uptempo and differs quite a bit from the LP version. Love that circular flipped framing device as well.

Flute solo. Let’s do this.

California Noise

So thursday I went to go see Best Coast at the Echoplex. They were solid. Amazing throwback noisy surf rock. Unfortunately for us, the other bands playing were not as impressive….

Oh hey update cause Carlos did ask, extra crispy live video at the Smell thanks to Rebel Mag. Very nice work there ladies or gents…

…for you.

Mod Revival is not punk because they wear parkas and not leather (duh)

Been listening to a lot of Mod Revival stuff of late.

Langley School Music Project

So I recently came across this LP for the Langley School Music Project which is all arrangements from the late 60s and 70s of children playing pop tunes. Watch the Documentary on it. There’s some amazing music on here.

Seattle (Again)

February 9, 2010 | In Output, Photography

Another short trip to Seattle to see friends. Photos, laughter, missteps, nueroticism, meetings, business, falling down, broken gear, letterpress, coffee tastings, food and drink and rain and moss.

Oh and obviously music. Constantly music (why are you making it harder?). Thanks to Carlos and Richard and the band for letting me sit in and shoot photos of them while they played. Great fun.

Seattle, let’s play pretend.
