The DVD actually includes a documentary-inside-the-documentary, In The Edges: The 'Grizzly Man' Session, about fifty magnificent minutes on the soundtrack's creation/recording, with Herzog losing it here and there and Richard responding with more musical genius. You can catch a tiny clip here:

Speaking of, Feeding Back: Conversations With Alternative Guitarists From Proto-Punk To Post-Rock is a truly excellent book and you should also add it to your list. Actually, forget the list, just get it right now. Browse that site to check the list of interviewees (Lee is one of them, by the way) and some bitchen excerpts like this:

I heard Bob Bucko Jr. on, What's This Called?

Ordered the new Bob Bucko Jr. from Personal Archives and picked up a few other items:
 


The Heavenly Sounds In Lo-Fidelity has been playing non-stop!

I just picked this up. New Jefre Cantu-Ledesma EP.
Fucking beautiful and excellent as always. One of the single best noise guitarists alive right now. My fucking God. Incredible.

I've been buying a good deal of Damon Smith releases......from the two cassettes in my previous post to a CD he released with Henry Kaiser earlier this year.

You are correct, and Grizzly Man is a great soundtrack, wish it was on vinyl. The DVD has a great documentary on the recording session too.

"Debut" album by band formerly known as Viet Cong.

Dumb that they changed their name, but whatever. Viet Cong's self-titled LP was fantastic. I have high hopes for this one.

Jack Rose reissues, finally got Red Horse, White Mule, was the only one I was missing. Still regret not getting an original when I saw him on an early tour.

Pretty lucky to have seen him.
I wasn't aware reissues were coming, but I'll be taking advantage. The only record I own a non-iTunes hard copy of is Jack Rose & The Black Twig Pickers.

I was late to the party. But damn that man could play. I look forward to boosting my collection.

This is just... immeasurably good. Are you discovering it these days or is it a case of "I finally got it on such-and-such format because my previous copy sounded like someone spilled Pepsi all over it"? In any event, you don't wanna wait too long to get the 5CD Complete Jack Johnson Sessions, which features (among others!) Sharrock, McLaughling, Hancock, Cobham and Miles himself carpetbombing the studio with LOUD badassness. Plus, interviews with Robert Quine and Nels Cline! For once, the label's description nails it: not jazz-rock; ROCK-jazz, motherfucker.

Ah. I've never heard this. My dad has it, in his massive collection of Miles reissues and anthologies, but I've never listened. You've convinced me.

Despite the tragedy that is having spent decades without listening to this album, you're a lucky guy as apparently you have a cool dad. My father was a violent alcoholic sociopath and his taste in music was shit. Hopefully Satan is partying on his ass right now.
