@amEdeo: That stuff has been totally suppressed. |
![]() |
![]() i heard most of the loops were swishy hi hats before they disintegrated |
![]() |
![]() Totally. It's like he's ashamed of it. Stop disintegrating the truth!! @steve: Swishy hit-hats and some groovy bass lines. A few hand claps now and then. |
Sun. 8/24/14 9:48pm
Carmichael:
It was actually intriguing, Dave. Though a bit tongue in cheek. | |

Sun. 8/24/14 9:52pm
P-90:
Oh, "Shiva's Breath", not "Chivas Breath" | |

![]() I work at a university library and supervise undergraduates. A couple of weeks ago I was talking with a friend and talking about Side Two of Kate Bush's *Hounds of Love*, two ugrads said, "Album sides?" I'm old. |
![]() |
Sun. 8/24/14 9:53pm
Dave Mandl:
@P-90: Haha. |
Sun. 8/24/14 9:53pm
rw:
That's not totally true... Often LPs have works that continue on multiple sides. But yes. Sometimes keeping things shorter makes for a more concise end result. | |
![]() |
Sun. 8/24/14 9:55pm
Dave Mandl:
@rw: Well, you can only play one side at a time. |
Sun. 8/24/14 9:55pm
rw:
My friend Dave Camp had a similar story about LP's... His friend's teen-aged daughter saw him flipping a record and she said, "You can play both sides of those things? That's cool." | |

Sun. 8/24/14 10:02pm
Dave Mandl:
@BDR: That's surprising. Even if they don't listen to vinyl, I'd think they'd at least heard of it. But no. |
Sun. 8/24/14 10:03pm
?:
dave, I got to tell you evan outdoes himself every year with his dance parties, don't you agree? | |
![]() |
![]() my band recently spoke to an engineer that i have recorded with before about putting out vinyl. he told me i was crazy. |
![]() |
![]() It's a lost art. I remember when people would put down the bong and argue which side to listen to depending on mood. Seems to me musicians lost half their palette. |
![]() |
![]() ...& rotary phones - some have *no idea*...I wonder how alien phone booths might seem... |
Sun. 8/24/14 10:04pm
rw:
What do I want for dinner? Phở? | |
![]() |
![]() Do we have our 2% Rockometers out? |

Dave Mandl:
@TDK60: Would you call this rock? Wow, you're strict. |
![]() |
![]() this group should do battle with Alien Whale |
![]() |
![]() Dave, I'm not referring to a cut specifically, just kidding! I could go for 6.3% Rocko even. |
Sun. 8/24/14 10:12pm
?:
well dave i'm sad to say this is my last & final comment, till we meet again! but i'll still be tuned in,, thnx for a great time! happy early labor day weekend all! | |

![]() Did K-Tel trim the songs down to fit more tracks on the CD? |
![]() |
![]() Hadn't heard Code BMUS. Unique, not 'generic' punk which was a put-down back then. '81 was a year, eh? Is it possibly Crass influenced? |
![]() |
![]() Oh, Code BMUS recorded at This Heat's Cold Storage studio. |

Nice Keefish rhythm guitar riff | |
![]() |
![]() Maybe some Roxy Music fellas along? That intro almost sounds Stones-y. |
Sun. 8/24/14 10:38pm
trsh:

Sun. 8/24/14 11:11pm
rw:
That Eno record from a few minutes ago.. Is this a new maybe semi official release? It's been available as a bootleg for a while. I bought one a year or so ago but gave it as a wedding gift. Would like to replace it if possible... What's the label? | |
Sun. 8/24/14 11:13pm
rw:
Oh, and that Owen Maercks track was pretty great too. I might have to track that one down... | |
Sun. 8/24/14 11:14pm
P-90:
rw: uber-cool wedding gift! | |
![]() |
Sun. 8/24/14 11:17pm
Dave Mandl:
@rw: I think the Eno LP is that same record, re-released (or re-pressed) yet again. |
Sun. 8/24/14 11:17pm
rw:
P-90. Yeah, Thanks. The bride walked down the aisle to "I'll come Running" so I thought it was appropriate. There's an alternate version with different lyrics on that lp. | |
![]() |
![]() @BDR, some co-workers consider me old fashioned because I download MP3s directly to my iPhone & don’t have Spotify. I might as well have an AM radio to them. |
![]() |
![]() The eternal question: Actual police sirens, or just Pac-Man ghosts? |
Sun. 8/24/14 11:40pm
P-90:
The obligatory Krell-style number | |

DM: Although she's probably listening to Henry Rollins' show right now and not the World of Echo... Ugh. | |
Sun. 8/24/14 11:52pm
rw:
Wow. It's almost the end! Brilliant (and maybe a little overwhelming) as always Mr. Mandl! Thank you! | |

I saw a young woman spinning wool outdoors in the sun, today, as I walked by. This sounds like what the wheel was doing, though she herself was pretty relaxed looking. | |
Sun. 8/24/14 11:54pm

Hey! Thanks for playing Violent Squid, I really loved listening to this show. I looked up Alien Whale, I guessed that comment was addressed to VSquid based on the timeline. I looked them up and they are on Northern Spy Records I saw, funny thing I sent them a record totally got it back unopened from Hentz out there haha. They win. | |
