Live performance and conversation with Glenn Jones and Yair Yona
  For his latest album, "The Wanting," guitarist Glenn Jones recorded in a fourth floor apartment on Commonwealth Avenue, Allston, Massachusetts, a suburb of Boston, overlooking the commuter train line. If you listen carefully to the record, you can occasionally hear trains going by in the background. In addition to playing with the band Cul de Sac, this solo disc is Jones' first album for Thrill Jockey, overflowing with nods to the "American Primitive" guitar style popularized by John Fahey. Glenn is joined by Israeli-born fingerstyle guitarist Yair Yona. Starting out as a bassist, Yona played stints in several London bands including Human Beings, then discovered the music of Bert Jansch and followed that musical path. Yair has one album out, "Remember," recently reissued on Strange Attractors and puts out a fine musical blog called "Small Town Romance." Yair Yona was in the NYC area for a rare visit over the Labor Day weekend, and Irene recorded a live set and a lively conversation with the two of them.

Listener comments!

  Mon. 9/5/11 12:07pm pierre:

Bonjour Irene !
Glad to hear you with the mekons

glad to get to hear Yair Yona's voice after reading his comments
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:12pm Looms:

Hello! Hope you didn't work too hard on this show.
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:16pm Irene:

I did work a bit on the Glenn Jones/ Yair Yona interview but it was totally worth it. The interview/performance starts at 1pm-ish
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:23pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

Hi guys! enjoying a nice set from the comfort of home for once. Babygirl is playing on the floor next to me.
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:23pm Looms:

What!? No lazy show on this labor holiday? ;)
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:24pm Looms:

Hey DCE, enjoy your day.
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:25pm Irene:

Well, I did all the work, now I can rest from my labors (and all of you should too).
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:25pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

I'll try, Looms...it's been a heckuva weekend so far, and I'm feeling more than a little burned out...
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:26pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

oh, this is gorgeous!
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:34pm moose:

what a really nice show
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:35pm Ike:

Enjoying, and def. not laboring.
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:48pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

I wish both of my speakers were working...bet I'm missing some good left-side sounds!
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:49pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

then again, this could be mono?
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:51pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

ha, 1968, not too likely, I said to myself
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:53pm Irene:

The guitar is certainly in mono and so are the effects. Guess I've not listened with headphones on before. The effects on A Raga Called Pat certainly could be described as 360 degrees of sound.
  Mon. 9/5/11 12:58pm Sean Gostage:

Hi Irene and hello to all your wonderful listeners
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:00pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

hey Sean Gostage. Lovely guitar set, eh?
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:10pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

somebody was trying to tell me about how great satellite radio is last night...I laughed and told her about WFMU.
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:10pm v k:

thank you Irene - enjoying a real time listen at home (rare) with the family today - my two year old boy often turns the receiver off in disapproval, but hasn't felt the urge over the last hour
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:17pm Irene:

Glad to have you v k, and everybody else who's listening!
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:19pm Sean Gostage:

Absolutely DCE, yet another stonking show
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:30pm D:

Great! Now let's hear some Currituck Co.! Or maybe Scott Ireland?
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:31pm Matt from Springfield:

I'm also listening from home today--unfortunately I just got up, but I'm glad to catch part of the Glenn/Yair performance. I didn't realize they were being interviewed together!
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:32pm Matt from Springfield:

Also glad to hear frequent commenter Yair Yona! Like pierre, I can put a voice to the name!
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:33pm Irene:

Sorry D. this is a whole live set and conversation with Glenn & Yair. Maybe I'll play some next time.
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:36pm Irene:

Matt, when I first set this up I was going to have them on separately. But Glenn really wanted to meet Yair face to face. We recorded the set yesterday to accommodate Yair's travel schedule.
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:38pm Matt from Springfield:

Thanks Irene! I was expecting the separate interviews because that's how it usually works, but it's different and kind of cool to have the guests interviewed together.
  Mon. 9/5/11 1:41pm Rob & Katie:

Beautiful performances by Glenn Jones and Yair Yona!
  Mon. 9/5/11 2:03pm mkostek:

Thanks Irene for the great cultura; mix!
Hello to Glenn from MC--keep up the great work!
  Mon. 9/5/11 2:42pm Matt from Springfield:

Thanks Glenn and Yair!
Thanks Irene and Diane!

VERY enjoyable set, I'm going to look into both of their music issues now!
  Mon. 9/5/11 2:42pm Looms:

Very nice set.
  Mon. 9/5/11 2:46pm 12539:

Thanks to all involved for a most delightful afternoon.
  Wed. 9/14/11 4:03am Mario:

What a great show - two of my favorite musicians - *together*!
