There are a few on the retirement tracking sheet that say "TBD minutes" because they need more than a handful added (or did as of last I checked them) and I don't have the energy to catalog them all tonight. Also, we still need a META-static Radio playlist created.

If someone could start a collaborative META-static playlist with just the first song on it, I'd be happy to add the rest. I'm good to add as much as I can to help, but I don't trust my ability to create the playlist correctly. And don't bother giving me the steps, because I'm not listening.

One of my friends booked us a cabin in the Va Mtns in late June. She emailed me and said it is $45 a night, and her husband said it is too good to be true. She said she couldn't pass up the deal, and then she said we have to bring our own water. I was thinking wait, what? She then sent me a link to the place a few minutes ago, and it is primitive as hell, except it does have electricity so we won't have to use oil lamps. There is no running water, but it has a flush toilet. It has no heat or ac, but it has a big fireplace. It has a kitchen with a fridge, stove, oven, and microwave. You have to bring your own water to cook, drink, and bathe with. It has 3 bedrooms, but doesn't have linens. It's basically like camping, but we will be inside a cabin instead of tents.

woodstock · May 3, 2021

Huh. Northern Voice sort of covered the Velvet song I was going to pick. That's cool. There are a few songs here and there that they wrote that I love.

Round 347 - Sister Ray - Velvets And The People Who Bought Their Record - Velvet Underground

I am indeed going to do this to the list. The concept of trance as understood by the Velvet Underground in the late '60s. I'd recommend fast forward for those less inclined to give it seventeen minutes of time, but it's one of their most notorious, jammy, and honestly catchy songs. I'd put it at the end of the playlist, however.

Round 348 - Femme Fatale - Velvets And The People Who Bought Their Record - Big Star

The next one is a cover that is jaw-dropping, IMO. Alex Chilton's voice is a male Nico's. How perfect.

Non-Velvet Influence Bonus

Round 347.Bonus - The Wait - Velvets And The People Who Bought Their Record - Pretenders

A little bit punky but with an arrhythmic quality and some drops in sound that sound Velvety. Chrissie Hynde is like a Velvet in spirit.

She was in charge of booking a cabin/home on air bnb in Va, and we are gonna ride bikes on the creeper trail, hike, canoe a lake, and other things. What she chose was not expected. Anyway, it looks dimly lit inside, so I'm gonna bring some of my lanterns. These lanterns are awesome. I have several, and they have been going strong for years. I have them in the 200 lumens and 540.

Since I have the VU playlist open, I might as well bonus it up to an hour.

Lou Reed - Kill Your Sons

Stereolab - Lo Boob Oscillator - Laetitia Sadler sounding particularly Nicoish on this one even though she's singing en Francais. I'm also legitimately curious to see if boob is censored

My bonus for winter was going to be The Walkmen, but KP already covered that group on the playlist with his dailies. Forgot about the snow shoveling song. I'm guessing it's off Lisbon or Heaven. I don't have those albums. I don't know why, but I think I gave up on The Walkmen a bit around that time. They'd stopped touring so much and settled down in life. Heaven was their self-admitted Dad rock album.

woodstock · May 4, 2021

I wonder if Peter Cetera or Bryan Adams ballads count as Slow Jamz. I've got one going through my head right now. I'm going to answer my own question with a no. But why the heck is it going through my head?

I think I need some sleep. Had a dream last night about a friend who had died about five years ago or so from ALS. The dream was very real, and it was no fun. For some reason, she was dating Barry Bonds, and we all had to get along for some reason. I found I couldn't do it because he was such a cocky son of a gun, and I started, in the dream, ignoring Barry and writing madly about how I felt about her, a fifteen-point or so missive that was then judged by a suburban housewife and her family, who were in a sort of director/producer setting that involved their living room. I awoke with what can only be called a start, and the whole episode didn't leave me with much rest or peace of mind, that's for sure. And I can't remember what for the life of me I wrote, but it seemed very real at the time.

Guess I miss her. :(

Sorry for that. That was a little while ago, and seems like barely a second or two of consciousness has gone since then, but it's been hours.

Miles Davis was the father of Fusion. He may not have been the first but he was Jazz's biggest (and maybe only) superstar, so when he started incorporating elements of Rock music, everybody took notice. His early electric bands were a breeding ground for a host of younger musicians who became the leaders of Fusion in the 70s.

349.8 - Miles Davis - Black Satin (Fusion)

Miles' 70s recordings are studio constructs with portions of various jams pieced together by Davis and Teo Macero. A lot of them are very long though. I'm picking "Black Satin" because it's relatively concise at 5:15 but mostly because the funky clapping beat will fit in with the mix better.

349.12 - Miles Davis - Big Time (Fusion)

1989's Amandla is my favorite of Davis' post-comeback albums. It was his third collaboration with bassist Marcus Miller and by this time, they were working in sympatico. Miles' chops were down in the early 80s but had rebounded by the time this was recorded. He'd defined hip for generations but age 64, he was following musical trends rather than leading them. This album avoids his interpretations of 80s Pop songs but "Big Time" explores the then-trendy Go-Go beats and gives us a song for Glenn Close to shake her butt to.

Dr. Octopus · May 4, 2021

I’m looking forward to sitting with the Jazz Fusion mix at some point as it wasn’t ever something that I’ve listened to - with the exception of some later Miles’ records.

Oh yea, I wouldn't lol. If you're going in with the expectation that it will be bad, then I'd recommend it, but it's not a serious film. I saw the movies when they first came out with a bunch of friends, and we snuck wine into the theater and just made fun of it for an hour and a half. It's become a tradition if we don't want to watch anything else (like the Twilight movies). The 50 Shades books started as Twilight fanfiction. I never read the original, but from what I've heard it had no business being a series or a movie trilogy.

I'll be interested in your reaction. I listen to quite a lot of Fusion because it's stuff that teenage Eephus dug. But if you pull away the blinders of nostalgia, I don't think Fusion measures up to the heights reached by either Jazz or Rock alone.

Fusion lacks the immediacy of great R 'n R and its rhythms don't provide the fluid platform for the improvisational flights of Jazz. It's still better than Prog in my book but I may be on an island on that one.

I watched Don Cheadle's Miles biopic Miles Ahead the other night.

Cheadle directed, wrote, produced and starred in the film. His performance was the highlight but his contrived story was biggest issue. I don't feel like I understand the artist any better after watching Miles take part in car chases and gun battles. The flashback sequences with his muse and first wife Frances tried to get into Miles' psyche a bit more but it didn't really connect with the main storyline.
