I'm buying two albums this weekend...
 

...tell me what to buy. I will most likely get a Sun City Girls album, since I don't really own anything by them, and I like them a lot. Maybe some Sonny Sharrock as well. I really don't know though, it's all up in the air right now.

SO just name 2 albums that are good? That's way too much pressure, son. I dnt know what you have. Don't know what yr missing.

buying two sonny sharrock albums and skipping SCG sounds like a good idea

get a sun city girls album, any will do, I don't know what's in print anymore. And get some Fahey!

I"ve never heard SSG's. I hear their name thrown around a lot. What's their dilly, yo?

get the Women LP, it's amazing and fresh sounding.

They are every type of music you can imagine... but it is always their own sound.

No pressure. Just throw stuff out, and if I've got it, I've got it; if I don't, I don't.

Although it's very possible that I don't, since most of the stuff I had is no lost thanks to my computer crashing, and it's taught me the importance of actually buying music. DON'T PREACH TO ME! I'VE LEARNED MY LESSON, OK?!?

Ahem, ok, so anyway, good call on the Fahey. Though it's a bit more traditional than my current mood, it would still be a good buy; besides, the way my moods in music go, by Sunday it be be dead on.

Haha, it would take like a 20 page thread to sum them up. Luckily there's one on this site somewhere. They have well over a 100 releases and have dabbled in every genre you can think of (from surf to noise to audio collages to punk to prank phone calls to .... I mean, it goes on and on), even some genres they invented. They're a very consciously loose Tibetan-jazz-666-from-Hell "freaky" folk group with no quality control, yet almost all their releases ARE quality. And they have a good sense of humor. Probably the best band ever actually. But you really have to dig into their discography, 1 or 2 releases don't sum them up.. hell, 102 releases don't even sum them up...

buy teh new Animal Collective... if you can find it, lolz.

exactly.
and you can save the money from the second lp to get some beers. you wont need money for a new LP for a while then

that women lp is good.

Get PRAYER FOR CHIBI!!!

i liked the women release, but after a few listens it felt like i didn't need to hear it again...

I've never heard SCG, so I'm for Sharrock.

But I mean. I guess my opinion is a bit slanted.

sounds like something I'd love. I always tend to get into bands/artists with gigantic discographies of varying genres.

Prayer for Chibi is good... not sure if it will make this cut though...

word, prayer for chibi is immense.

Immense, yes, but I'm not feeling immense this week. Maybe next week. I know I've felt immense before, and I'm sure I will feel it again.

I should get some Jandek too. It's weird going from having a lot of music to having none. I pretty much have to start over :)

That's why I always buy music.

Although, yesterday my car was broken into with about 12 CDs in it, including Evol, The Birthday Party, etc.

They didn't steal anything. :confused:

Clearly, robbers have poor taste in music. Fuckers.

they were/are the greatest band of all time. the velvets come close.
