Some other wiseacre DJ suggested that this would be an interview with Trish from beyond the grave. How dare he! Irwin would never countenance such nonsense. Got enough Ouija boards, Irwin? Do they work better if you use more of them? Maybe stack 10 or 12 of them on top of each other?

A lady singer like the Airplane, but no Guitars. Electronics like Silver Apples - but not that...Weirdo Post-'67 Dark Psych like Ultimate Spinach, but much smarter...Arch non-Cali like the Velvets, but not that junkie thing...Yes it's an interesting album...it even reminds me of Urban Cowboy - that last years of the 60s Existential but still Earnest thing...
Wow this Broadcast. A little like Stereolab w/ words, or His Name Is Alive around the edges. Wow.

Great show! I like that you played The Presidents of the United States. I heard Broadcast first, and worked my way back to their influences. Some great music I may have never heard otherwise. Such as the White Noise LP. For a more recent band that's similar to Broadcast (and Stereolab) there's Death and Vanilla, from Sweden, who have some pretty good records out and about.

Thanks for this Irwin! I was at that Maxwell's show in 2000. It was incredible. Saw them a bunch after too. Trish was pretty special. Sadly the last time I saw her was doing a duet at The Troubadour with Vincent Gallo. I choose to remember that first show though.
  5:07pm
Seth:

Saw them twice: once right after The Noise Made By People, when they still had a full band; and again on their last tour co-headlining with Atlas Sound.
  5:07pm
Jeremy:

Growing up my folks only had 3 Beatles albums, the 1st Bee Gees and the United States of America, which my father had been given by a friend who was managing them. When I got a little older I could never understand why no one knew the USA, having no idea that there were lots of records/bands in the world and lots of them got signed to Columbia in 1968! Not a lot of that caliber however....as with Broadcast.

I saw them @ El Ray Theatre-2000. Fabulous! Love this show.

Wow - great to hear the us of america. Didn't recognize it til the line, "and the price is tight, the cost of one admission is your mind" & it was like i heard it yesterday.

I might get in trouble for asking but what genre would Broadcast fit into? Back in the early 2000s, I caught a few artists with a 1960s retro feel to them..The Bristols, April March and Dallas just to name a few. Lots of Britpop came out around that time but I'm not sure how other fans of Broadcast feel about the term. Always wondered.
