Album Details

Body/Head is the duo of Kim Gordon (Sonic Youth, Free Kitten) and guitarist Bill Nace (Northampton Wools, Celyon Mange). They play experimental, free-form guitar drones highlighed by Gordon’s unmistakable voice. Their sound is an immersive, three-dimensional experience and no two performances are similar. No Waves was recorded on March 24th, 2014 during Big Ears Festival in Knoxville, TN at the Bijou Theater. This live album (don’t jump to conclusions, please read ahead) captures Kim Gordon and Bill Nace at peak chemistry during the tour supporting 2013’s critically lauded Coming Apart. The band have not played many shows since forming, but those who have been able to see them live have left their jaws on the floor. This album is the piece of the Body/Head puzzle for those who have not seen the band live and for those that have, something they want to own. Instead of presenting “tracks” or “songs” from the record, we present moments from this one pinnacle set that was luckily for us beautifully caught in time. World-renowned artist and long-time friend of Kim Gordon, Raymond Pettibon has made an original piece of art for the cover of the album.

Apparently it'll be released on CD as well — two versions, actually, one with a bonus track. Or something!

I just bought the Confusion Is Sex vinyl reissue and gave it a spin, it sounds so much better on vinyl, a lot more depth and bass than the CD, even Shaking Hell sounds good, I always felt it sounded like a rough demo on the CD.

I also recently got the Experimental Jetset reissue too and it was warped and messed up on Self Obsessed & Sexxee, luckily my replacement was perfectly fine, I now own all their studio albums on vinyl, really glad they reissued them all.

here's some more info about it: http://www.creativeauthors.co.uk/authors/nick-soulsby/

His latest book, We Sing a New Language: the Oral Discography of Thurston Moore, (Omnibus Press, 2016) paints a picture of the lives, scenes and sounds that have risen and fallen away over the course of Moore’s 3 ½ decades in music through the memories of 160 musicians, producers and record label owners who played a part in the works he has created.

Wow, now THESE are the droids. Even being a Dylan turbofanatic it's amazing how little I know about the guy. His Wikipedia page doesn't even have a picture of him for crap's sake. I'm buying the heck out of this 2CD set and his own The Hired Hand as well.

The Soup Nazi 12.16.2016 01:38 PM

By the way, there's just one tune performed (solo? mainly?) by Langhorne on Dime right now, "Don't Take Everybody To Be Your Friend":

Various Artists - Saturday of Folk Music, WRVR, New York, 1961-07-29

By the by, if a non-firewalled seeder jumps in, everything would go deliciously... :cool:

I second this motion. Supposedly he lives in Venice Beach, only plays percussion these days, and maybe sometimes busks but I've never seen him.

thx

hipster_bebop_junkie 12.21.2016 02:18 AM

By the way, there is also another release on Vallellano & The Royal Gypsy Orchestra's Bandcamp, which has participation by Steve Shelley on drums/percussion:
https://vallellano.bandcamp.com/albu...l-cortavientos
 


The other day I came across a review of the latest Christmas record by She & Him (Zooey Deschanel & M. Ward), which mentioned there is participation by Steve Shelley on that album. If someone would recapitulate in which releases Steve was involved in during this year (besides Sonic Youth reissues and Sonic Youth archival releases), I would be very appreciative.

Chris Lawrence 12.21.2016 11:16 PM

Thanks for the tip about Steve being on the She & Him record! I hadn't heard it cuz I wasn't thrilled with the last Christmas record they did, but I'll check it out before the season's through.
