Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from January 25, 2024 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

Two things to add to the conversation.

b. There is a freaking ice cream truck outside here in Queens NY. I heard the ice cream truck theme playing and looked outside wondering why is someone playing that and see the ice cream truck there will decorative lights flashing waiting for customers.

i think it's very Hendrix, which is a bit of both. Their later homage to Bo Diddley indicates an american affinity. they're way too primitive & anti-song form to make me think too much of Deep Purple or Cream, personally. but that doesn't exclude all of UK rock

found this interesting, did not know of guaraldi beyond peanuts...guaraldi after 1970..."Guaraldi's sound also evolved into a more fusion jazz/rock sound, as he largely traded the piano for Hammond B-3 and Fender Rhodes electric keyboards. His live performances included musicians who specialized in funk and soul as well as traditional jazz."

Flash Strap:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:26
not exactly, though it's described as such because it compiles recordings from a few different sessions/periods - everything on it is unreleased and about a third of it was recorded in 1974 for the album

it's sorta too bad because when i hear comp, i don't necessarily think "this is Essential Miles"

"Compilation" implies belatedness. All albums are compilations, but I think tttps means "stuff collected from prior recordings." Mr. Strap clarifies accordingly.

The rules don't apply to Miles. His albums of scraps from the electric era are just as enjoyable to me as his renown masterpieces. I even avoided Get Up With It for a long time because I thought his sunglasses were silly, I assumed the contents were subpar. My mistake! I was surprised to hear a snippet of Maiysha in the TV show Atlanta.

yeah the cover doesn't do it many favors, though i've come to like it now, it just doesn't convey the crazy funky psychedelic energy like a lot of his other electric covers do. it looks like something to do cut lines on
