Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from February 2, 2023 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.

Sometimes it can feel Miles is getting performances out of people by intimidation. Or ...that's a mythology I've carried around a long time. That can work even. But here ...well point I guess is this sounds intense but they're engaged & energized.

Thanks, I stand corrected; I know about the studio albums and the reshuffling (and have the reissue box CD sets with the edited and unedited versions), I'm not shure Columbia gave Live Evil the same treatment (or maybe I just got overextended with the boxes I alreaedy had, and overspent).

Probably named after William Gladstone...historical English politician who advocated (gradual and qualified) emancipation from slavery in the colonies

B-side to this is a great Big Joe toast on the Gaylads "Looking for a Girl" (which we heard a few weeks back)

The first thing the intertoobs displays when I search it is: His vocal is based around an old Caribbean folk tale and the lyrics 'Hog inna ya minty' apparently refer to the dangers of letting pigs get into your garden, because 'him a root out ya coco' (coco being some sort of yam like vegetable in Jamaica)

No, that isn't Cindy Sherman, but I can't tell you who it is....might have swiped that from Artforum though. Can't remember, Franco. The old memory is covered with verdigris and liana vines. I'm lost in there somewhere.
