OK, I have maybe 1000 or so discs from classic live performances from bands on the classic 97.9 WOXYin Oxford Ohio (I have talked about them before and how I miss them), also several from KEXP in Seattle.....likely VERY few of you have these recordings, this is likely the only way you will hear them.......90% are relatievely unknown units, every now and then a Firey Furnaces, Sleater Kinney, Raveonettes, or Robyn Hitchcock turns up, but ya never know........the performances are generally top-notch, high energy, and great.....I DO NOT happen to have the track lists for each set, sue me. But I think once a week or so I will break out 4 or 5 of these discs for a while, perhaps you may discovers something that will become a favorite of yours, or perhaps, just anothter write off.......ANYWAY, I have more of this stuff than you can imagine, and depending on the responses/ we'll see how long I contue with it......remmeber these are pretty UNIQUE recordings, and I think that there is an audience out there for them......at some time later, I will talk about WOXY and KEXP, but for now, just enjoy the incredible live music that they played.
WOXY.COM LOUNGE ACTS VOLUME 61-01 Winter Pills/02 CallaWOXY. COM LOUNGE ACTS VOLUME #60-01 Land of Talk/02 Snowden
WOXY.COM LOUNGE ACTS Volume #59 -01 Age Rings/02 120 Days
WOXY.COM LOUNGE ACTS VOLUME #58-01 The Little Ones/02 Sara Culler
(if you don't understand, each volume includes 2-3 bands performing a 20-30 minute live in the studio set.......really enjoyable and original for my money)
I'm gonna put these five discs up tomorrow, and I hope to see GOOD results for them.....you guys want DIFFERENT, and that Is what the Big Dog TRIES to give you........at least LISTEN, if they SUCK THEY SUCK, but I think it may become a weekly feature for a while, unless it is a total disaster.
Just remember these factors: The "Volume Numbers' mean NOTHING....there are a few hundred of each, and to do them in "numerican sequence, I'd ahve to sort em out, rather than just grab a stack and dig in as I did....also, the tracks are UNSPLIT, so each set is ONE track.....sorry, no song titles, in general it is mentioned by the host or artist......I really, really, really, hope you guys like these, PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR FEEDBACK ON THESES, if you never have before! I can run these rare, rare live, obscure recordings out until I'm buried in the groound, but will only do so if you have interest.......you WILL find some good, unknown or semi-unknown gems here, and it's something I WANT to do, but only if you want it......please let me know, it won't be a daily thing, maybe weekly.......I invite you to PLEASE give my new idea a shot, a couple years agao, "WOXY Unsigned" went over quite well, these are a good bit better than those, in my estimation.
