Night Watch
Sunday April 16th, 2017 with Dav Fot
Space Debris! Spooky Tooth! Offenbach!

Tonight, a mish-mash - cleaning up the look at the picks from the Community Record show, the 'Merrie Mack' feature, and the final feature - an LP I had hoped to find at the record show: Offenbach's 'Saint-Chrone de Neant'. As luck would have it, it's here at the station, so you get to hear it in its' entirety, anyway!
The 2nd 'Big Pick' from the Record show (the first was the 'Offering' LP, profiled on the last Nightwatch), this time something new - neo-Krautrockers (OK, maybe not 'neo' - they have been around for over 20 years...) Space Debris!

Now onto a strange pick from the record show - Spooky Tooth's 'Ceremony'. A strange mix of Blues Rock (with Christian lyrics) and Musique Concrète by the then hip Pierre Henry, who was made famous by his Messe pour le temps présent . "Ceremony" is subtitled "Electronic Mass", so it is obvious Island hoped to cash on a trend. But Henry added his noises on the finished album without even meeting the group, who was not very pleased by the result. Still, it's a very interesting experiment

Finishing up with an LP I had hoped to find at the record show: Offenbach's 'Saint-Chrone de Neant'. As luck would have it, it's here at the station, so you get to hear it in its' entirety, anyway! A very rare LP, even if I did find a copy, I probably couldn't afford it anyway.
