I find that a lot of people have never heard

of Johnny Lang "Wander This World"

*swoon*

 

[sigh]

the Amazing Rhythm Aces, but i can't think of the name of their first album anymore (yes, that's album...i have my folk's copy somewhere, but no turntable to play it on)

please don't help me by telling me the name of it, by the way, because then it won't qualify as one nobody's heard of

 

[Spinaroonie]

Skankaholics Unanamous, Music under the influence of Ska

 

[modest mouse]

Replikants ~ This is Our Message

Experimental tape loops done on home cassette recorders ocer a period of summers.

 

[sigh]

okay...it was Amazing Rhythm Aces, Too Stuffed to Jump...and it was their second album, not their first...so much for the memories of childhood

shoot, they have an official web site and an australian fan club...somehow i don't think this is one that "nobody else has ever heard of"

Dead Can Dance - Into the Labyrinth

Do bootlegs count?

We have a CD that was made from a reel-to-reel of a Janis Joplin concert that was taken from the board in the 60's.

We get tons of CD's sent to our home because my husband is a promoter. Obscure? Can't get much more obscure then we get. We have been known to keep a basket by the front door and offer them to anyone who walks through.

Tons of singer-songwriters. Anyone can make a CD now and they do.

 

[T.H. Oughts]

Condor by Machu Picchu

 

[FlamingoBlue]

My son just recorded a CD......

It was a project for a class he is taking at the New School in NYC. It includes a mockumentary of his persona, dstortion, as well as several of his poems set to some very hairy tunes. It is one of a kind and one of my prized possessions.

Odd statement after your thread earlier about how much creating music has meant to you. I am amusical snob but allow each to value what they create. Some of teh best music in recorded history was never intended for an audience, sure much of it may be terrible to all but the creator...but it still has value.

I'm thankful it doesnt require a large investment to record anymore or I would have nothing to listen to.

Me, too. I'll be first in line to buy his third disc whenever it appears.

My vote goes to John Hiatt's "Perfectly Good Guitar", both the song and the disc.

Oh cym, what DO I have to do to get to you?
