Led Bib: Bring Your Own

Read "Bring Your Own" reviewed by Bruce Lindsay


Led Bib has never been an easy ensemble to pigeonhole: according to critics and reviewers the band is “punk jazz," free improvisation, avant-garde, skronk, dirty jazz--and, most splendidly, “death-jazz-cum-math-punk." On the evidence of the London-based band's fourth album, Bring Your Own, it's all of the above, and a little bit more. This is music for dancing, ...

Puttin' On The Ritz: White Light / White Heat

Read "White Light / White Heat" reviewed by Bruce Lindsay


The Velvet Underground's White Light / White Heat (Verve, 1968) was an antidote to insipid pop and a stark contrast to the happier, more optimistic sounds of many West Coast rock bands.

The Velvet Underground: Bootleg Series Volume 1: The Quine Tapes

Read "Bootleg Series Volume 1: The Quine Tapes" reviewed by Colin Fleming


A sprawling triple-disc album featuring over three and a half hours of music, The Quine Tapes is also an especially historic one. Despite two previously issued live albums, the Velvets' live legacy had suggested more than it revealed. 1969 was a fine, arresting document, but lacked both “Foggy Notion" and “Sister Ray," setlist cornerstones, the two ...
