Pearls Before Swine was one of my first underground hippy albums, back then. Fugs too.
Avatar 3:25pm
TDK60:

(..Not "Ashes" though that's good too. I meant P.B.S.'s eponymous first one.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:25pm
Funky16Corners:

I found my way to Pearls via This Mortal Coil and their cover of The Jeweler

I'm a BIG Tom Rapp fan. I did a show dedicated to him a few years ago when he passed
Avatar 3:27pm

Larry, This Mortal Coil stood out to me, in the '80s, as a group that had very good taste in selecting old '60s-'70s covers.

TDK60 I used to play a game with my friend as we walked up to the pub. You name an album, & side & track number; the trick is to name the track. Impossible now with those new compact discs!

Nico's album Desertshore has 2 or 3 songs she sings in German. Also much lovely cacophony by John Cales.

That abrupt ending was because the Stepney stuff is from rough/incomplete home demos

About a Charles Stepney documentary www.waxpoetics.com...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:47pm
Funky16Corners:

I'll talk about it during the break, but the bottom line is that the Step On Step release has been overhyped by a lot of people. It is far from his best work, and not really a revelation. A lot of it is instrumental sketches. The tracks I played, which skew toward jazz are IMHO the best things on the album. His work on so much of the Cadet/Cadet Concept catalogs is visionary at times and ought to be the focus of any doc.
