Fanatic! Another week and another great show! I am just back from a week in Mexico City where I checked out Iggy Pop, the Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of Rock and Roll, play three nights. It was a great time. Teresa and Omar from Crystal Fairy were there for the second night. As you can see below, we start the show with a track from their excellent new album.
I listened to Rain’s La Vache Qui Rit album a few days ago for the first time since last August. That’s a seasonal one for me, after August 31, it goes out of rotation until spring. I thought it would be good to put a track from it into the mix. It’s frustrating that the record is so scarce and expensive when you do see one. There are a few on Discogs but they are a lot. If you ever see this one, or any other record on the Peterbilt label at an affordable price, you might want to check it out.
The Tony Conrad documentary Completely in the Present will show on the 16th at The Theater at the Ace Hotel. Conrad was a fascinating musician and thinker. I strongly recommend this doc to you. Here is information:

Did you notice the new Damaged Bug track in hour 1? That’s from a new split single on Famous Class. The flip side is Black Pus. Unsurprisingly, both songs are great. I think the color edition is gone but the black vinyl pressing is still available. Here is the Famous Class address for more information: http://famousclass.com/. It’s a good idea to get on the mailing list and get a heads up when these limited records hit.
Thanks for Engineer X, we have a sanitized version of H Eyes to start our second hour. It is restrictive, the language issues on radio but rules are rules. It is without a doubt, a great gathering of tunes that I hope you dig. Don’t you feel lucky that you like music? It’s not hard to find and always faithful. It’s one of the best deals humans get.
I hope you dig the show and listen to it at least twice.
Listen with intensity and STAY FANATIC!!!
