Helo all!

Today's mystery LP-under-the-cassettes should be relatively easy to ID -- any guesses?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:03pm
JtotheK:

Is it a Lawrence Welk LP? Hi Tony. Hi everyone.

Tony Coulter:

steveo has obviously recognized today's mystery LP, and has even offered up a clue. Anyone care to make a guess?

Oh, and no, it's not Lawrence Welk .. or even Lawrence Whelk.

Dean:

Don Felder's Lawrence Welk tribute album, Heavy Metal Accordion?

Tony Coulter:

And Dean is our winner!

Er, no, he's not. (Heya, Dean!)

hi, Tony and friends. thanks to steveo's hint, i was able to find the FC album on discogs: what we did on our holidays. i honestly never would have found it otherwise.

also, tape hiss! yay!

JtotheK:

@Dean - did you just come up with a premium idea? I like the idea of a tribute album done in the style of Welk!

Hey, Chris! You are our lucky winner! You win a free trip to Flumdiddle!!

And here's the Fairport album, for those who don't know it: www.discogs.com...
Avatar 12:18pm
still b/p:

I took the clue and looked and found it immediately with first search for FP albums. Conveniently answered? Yes. Satisfyingly through process or personal memory straining? No. Maybe I should've gone outside and flagged down a driver or two to describe the art and ask them, so it would seem like more active and intense effort.

i should have waited on the hint but I can't resist a coincidence

Dean:

@JtotheK: I wouldn't be surprised if there were a heavy metal accordion album out there somewhere...

(also I'm pretty sure the F in WFMU stands for Fairport)

Sometimes internet aid questionable, sometimes internet good: found a Macbook Air computer sitting in a yard down the street recently, in the grass just a reach off the sidewalk. IT was so unusual a lfind that I doubted the property owner would've lost or left it there without fast recovery, so I took it home after my errand. Called a friend who has Mac products to get a power cord. Eventually it powered up; with the names that appeared on the screen, I Googled my way to a likely local connection and phone number, talked to Mom whose son had lost the computer and other goods to a car-break. Dad and sone came to my place to retrieve. So back in his hands same day I found it.

and thus the purest correctness
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:35pm
steveo:

this reminds me a lot of an organ my grandmother used to have with a "glissando bar"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:37pm
steveo:

is the organ type listed, Tony?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:38pm
steveo:

(for Contrasts)
Avatar 12:39pm
Tony Coulter:

@ Steveo: nope: for keyboards, it just sez organ and synth
Avatar 12:45pm
Tony Coulter:

Assuming it even is a keyboard synth -- which, on reflection, maybe it isn't.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:49pm
steveo:

thanks for checking Tony -- true that
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:50pm
steveo:

it's past my lunchtime but I can't bear to leave John Hinds
Avatar 12:50pm
Tony Coulter:

Sadly, the cover of "Contrasts" makes me think of Kenny G (the evil one, not FMU's own)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:05pm
steveo:

I just searched and found the type of organ my grandmother had. A Thomas Californian 263. I used to think all organs had a glissando bar. Here's a PNG image. goo.gl... For Arpeggio, you would hold one or more keys on the actual keyboard and then only those tones would sound when you ran your finger across the buttons on the bar.
Avatar 1:11pm
Tony Coulter:

I think I've diddled on organs that give you automatic arpeggios. And *maybe* ones with a glissando bar -- that sounds like fun, actually, so you'd think I'd remember.
  1:11pm
Dean:

David Schafer did a Kenny G-ish (FMU's own) take on Kenny G (the evil one) with "Forever in Love Forever."
Avatar 1:12pm
Tony Coulter:

The cassette on now is the red one on the left -- that's Kalle Laar on the cover.
Avatar 1:21pm
Tony Coulter:

Of course, it says "Kalle Laar" right on the cover -- but well, you know, just in case you forgot your spectacles....

@ Sem: Glad to hear it, Sem! Was wondering if the tape on now had cleared the room.
Avatar 1:43pm
Tony Coulter:

Heya, Electric Chair!

This is live improv, mostly featuring guitar and percussion.
Avatar 1:52pm
Tony Coulter:

By the by, percussionist Takashi Kazamaki has recorded with Takehisa Kosugi, of Taj-Mahal Travellers should-be-fame ... and also Danny Davis of the Sun Ra Arkestra.

Why, I never heard of such a crazy thing. Of course my ears are still on my head. I may need to FedEx out my nostrils and septum out for some work, though.

Another mistake on my part: NMA (the label that released this Ernie Althoff tape) stands for New Music Articles, not New Music Australia. That'll teach me. www.rainerlinz.net...

whatever the label, this stuff is excellent!
