Read "An Hour Of Grateful Dead To Celebrate Bob Weir's Birthday" reviewed by Lawrence Peryer

by Lawrence Peryer

A bit of a deviation from our norm: Bob Weir, who died in January, would have turned 79 on October 16, so this week is all Grateful Dead, from his 42nd birthday: October 16, 1989, at the Meadowlands in New Jersey, released in 2001 as Nightfall of Diamonds. “Feel Like a Stranger" and “Let It Grow" ...

Read "Sarah Davachi, Work Money Death, Aaron Parks And Others" reviewed by Lawrence Peryer

A quiet start: Pan American, from a new record about travel and family, then a nice long stretch of Sarah Davachi.

Minoru Muraoka, Alice Coltrane, Jazztobak And More

Read "Minoru Muraoka, Alice Coltrane, Jazztobak And More" reviewed by Lawrence Peryer

by Lawrence Peryer

This episode explores the theme of rediscovery: a 1970 Japanese shakuhachi record just reissued, and a Swedish duo closing things out on a stripped-down reading of an old socialist hymn. In between we present a run built entirely around one photography book, unpublished 1970s portraits by the late Warner Bros. photographer Ginny Winn. The Residents are ...

The first half of our show is a deep dub run: an obscure mid-1990s compilation cut, Harry Mudie's 1976 session with King Tubby, Scientist's early-'80s Channel One sound, Prince Far I, and Bill Laswell, who shows up twice, once under his own name and once as the producer who reassembled Bob Marley's catalog into ambient dub ...
