New San Francisco ‘Punk’ History Book

Nice article in Chronicle Datebook yesterday about book just released by two journalists in the know, Silke Tudor and Jack Boulware.  Credibility is king, and these trudgers have it.  Looks to be a solid read for regional, and global subterranean music geeks like myself.  Click below for Professor Selvin’s article.

Spoon Got Nuffin?

Why is this tune not all over radio? Oh, now I see why.

AFI – now this one should be top 5 already.  Davey Havok for Governor. “Woot” to Aaron. What does Woot mean?  As for the rest of the tunes - thank goodness for my re-built internal censor.  Come on Son! Where  is Plen and Boulos when we need them?

Dutchess & Duke & Greg

Greg Ashley is packing his warm clothes for a jag across America with the Dutchess & The Duke, who are supporting their Ashley produced, highly praised, and recently released LP: ‘Sunset / Sunrise.’  Greg will be opening the show, and playing drums for D&D.   What other prolific analog cavemen reminds us, “Do a full length album at my studio, only $1200″ on his MySpace? This tour will be the now scene, and where it is happening.

Dig the warm D&D sounds below:

Living This Life

Hands

This ideal, artist & producer relationship will be defined even greater through road work ahead.  And when Greg gets back in town – Sir Lord Von Raven tracking awaits.  This is the living life. True soul.

#MusicMonday – Classic Track of Day – Primal Scream

1994 Creation 129

“Rocks” – Primal Scream was over their Screamadelica trip, and traveled south to track with Tom Dowd  at Ardent Studio, Memphis Tennessee.  The result was jukebox ‘true soul’ revivalist boogie.  Have at it.
