Sebastián Kramer

I recieved a mail a few days ago from Sebastián Kramer (I like some parts of that name very much!), an Argentinian, who tells me that he was guitarist of a group named Jaime Without Earth between 1996 and 2001.
Haven't heard about them - but it looks like they recorded 3 albums (CD:s).
Now he is going solo with the album: 'La Futura Mirada Del Ex Tenista'. It is available for download at his blog (check the side bar).
I don't know for sure but the music reminds me a little about Sonic Youth and a little about Lou Barlow (Sebadoh) and a little about other bands related to these.
Years ago I consumed music like this, loved and cherished it as something equally important as the air I breathed.
Nowadays I don't feel much at all.
But if you like the kind of dreamlike pop surrounded by barbed wire guitars this should be a pretty nice experience.
If you like it you can actually download the cover art as well.
Free music - we love!

Stars That Shine Darkly

"Monte Hall would have made a good salesman at Sun Ra’s post-gig merch table. The two albums I’ve uploaded for this post were purchased after a mid-1980s Arkestra show. As with all the other records for sale that night, the vinyl was packaged in plain, unmarked black sleeves. The only way of distinguishing one title from another was to remove the record and hope that at least one side had a label glued on. Many did not. If the gentleman handling the cash was asked what was what, he’d laugh and assure the potential buyer that it was all good music, it was all Sun Ra.
So I took a shot on these two, since they each had a hand cut and glued center hole label on one side, and the labels were different. All I knew was that one record had a Hiroshima label, and the other had a Stars That Shine Darkly label. ...
... It was also from Campbell’s book that I learned the darkly shining stars were Sun Ra’s All Stars, which included Don Cherry, Archie Shepp, Philly Joe Jones, Lester Bowie, and Richard Davis; along with a few of the greats from the Arkestra. ..."

Week 24 - More WWII Propaganda

The Nazis weren’t to keen on jazz or anything fun for that matter (although the SS did have cool uniforms) but in order to try and woe the brits into their fold Goebbels started radio broadcasting specifically aimed at them. In setting new premises for double moral standards, even for the Nazis, they started re-recording popular jazz standards with new lyrics in hoping to lure new recruits into their wicked ways. The lyrics was usually rants against the allied forces, jews and the despair of not seeing things the Nazi way. These tracks were mostly recorded by Charlie & His Orchestra (Vol. 1, is still downloadable at WFMU's Beware of the Blog!), as there are two cd:s readily available of their complete recordings we went digging a bit deeper into the archives and came up with three recordings you wont find there.
pcl2
Lale Andersen

The very first swinging propaganda song done was this version of 'Onward Christian Soldiers' by an unknown assembly band, five weeks after the outbreak of the war in 1939, mocking the british soldiers for marching off to die for protecting the international conspiracy of jews. Lale Andersen was known as Engel der Soldaten during the war. She was the woman who launched the song Lili Marlene (which is on one of the Charlie cd:s) in 1941 but Goebbels found it to have a “cadaverous smell” and Hinkel thought it to be “defeatist chirping” so eventually the Nazis forbid her to sing it and perform on stage ever again. After that the song became even more popular on the Allied side. Lale ended her career with a participation in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1961 (13th place with 3 points) , dying in Vienna in 1972. She never recorded any propaganda song nor could she be called a propaganda artist. We just find her to be a fascinating woman in a troubled time and with a remarkable career, unjustly forgotten these days, so here’s a rare recording by her, with an unknown band, before falling gracefully from grace with the Nazis.

The last song was done in 1944, mainly aimed at American soldiers for being dumb enough to fall for the Englishmen luring them into the war. Not that it helped. So what did these broadcasts really sound like? Find out the answer to that next week as we listen in on that funny man William Joyce – an Englishman gone astray in Germany.

Just a little about...

why this blog started in the first place.

I heard about this blog-thing in the summer of '03. Then I typed b-l-o-g into the url box and found... nothing of interest. (Note: Of course I must have found BoingBoing that night - but surely I thought it looked ridicilous and not worth wasting my time on...)
I decided that blogs probably were web pages where people complained about the weather and politics.
Some time later (maybe half a year later) I was looking for information about the belgian cartoonist Franquin and all of a sudden I was here (another Cartoonist!). Now, this was a blog!!!
I spent at least 3 days going through the archived posts - and found links to stuff about interesting things almost at every day.
Cool, I thought - blogs are maybe not that bad after all...
I checked The Cartoonist's blogroll and found two other great blogs: Life In the Present and Exclamation Mark.
That did it. This could actually be fun, I thought. And here I am. I am a blogger....

So the main inspirators to PCL LinkDump blogwisely were these 3 fine blogs. Now two of them have decided to quit link-blogging and started blogging about other things (I'll be visiting there too, don't you worry guys!).

So, Michelle and Mark, thanks for all the killer linkage and for getting me into this - and good luck being the great poet/film critic that I know you are.
And thanks, of course, to you Ralf ;-) (But You are not allowed to quit!)

Week 23: WWII Propaganda

World War II seems to have set an end to the old tradition of topical ballads and songs: the quick and easily understandable response to an immediate event in the form of a song. The wars that followed in Korea and Vietnam gave voice to a more personal and expressive kind of songs. As for the Gulf and Iraqi wars we haven’t heard much at all. As for the decline of the jingly penny ballad this might also have something to do with the breakthrough of the phonograph record as this music was first and foremost spread by note sheets. Well, we leave that for the historians to work out. Let’s hear some music!
pcl2
Donald Duck is having a nightmare, dreaming that he’s living in Nazi Germany and having to heiling Hitler all the time. The song featured in this wonderful short was 'Der Fuhrer's Face' (1943), also giving name to the film. After the war the Disney Corporation wasn’t too keen to let us se Donald in a Nazi uniform even if he was only dreaming. In fact it took over half a century before they finally released it in their fine Disney Treasures series. The song was immensely popular during the war and recorded by loads of artists. The same goes for 'Praise the Lord & Pass the Ammunition' (what a wonderful title). Written by the man who seemed to be getting a song out every time he sneezed, Frank Loesser. The version here is our favourite, beautiful singing and with some really advanced mixing for its day. Lets not forget Stalin, here he’s being praised by The Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet. We did find a latter day version of this in the archives, done nearly note by note, on a single by Robert Wyatt (Rough Trade, 1980). Some people just never learn. Before we tune up for next weeks episode, with some genuine Nazi propaganda, we leave with you with a somewhat surreal sermon from Reverend Gates.

12. The Southern Sons Quartet – Praise the Lord & Pass the Ammunition
13. The Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet – Stalin Wasn´t Stallin´

Titles Designed by Saul Bass

pcl2
'Seconds', Directed by John Frankenheimer, 1966.

"One is pressed to cite an example of an active, self-contained, and characteristic credits sequence in film prior to the work of Saul Bass. Undoubtedly, there are examples that presage Bass’ pioneering work; namely, the famous final credits of Citizen Kane reprise excerpts from the film, underscoring the footage with actors’ names. Likewise, overtures frequently preceded films of the ‘30s and ‘40s. Many of these are visually complimented by static credits, and in some cases a montage. And despite these examples, in regard to innovation, renown, and influence, Bass’ impact in credits design remains virtually unparalleled, even to this day. ..." (from the Introduction)

Week 22: Fake Hard Rock

We might not be big heavy metals fans here at the office but we do love Motörhead and AC/DC. But, then that’s maybe because Motörhead are really a rock´n´roll band and AC/DC a blues band. AC/DC did have a spot of trouble back in 1980. After the success of 'The Highway To Hell tour' the boys were back in the studio for preproduction on the next album. Singer Bon Scott rarely found a bottle he didn’t like so after a heavy drinking session Bon fell asleep and asphyxiated in his sleep when vomiting in February 1980. Eventually the band brought in Brian Johnson as a replacement, on the indirect recommendation from Bon who always thought he was a great singer. This new incarnation of the band released the mighty fine album 'Back in Black' in the summer of 1980. Although there’s some out there that completely misses the point and claim that its too juvenile. Hell – Angus still performs in a school uniform and if its one thing we don’t want it’s a not juvenile AC/DC. No, we want songs like 'Let Me Put My Love Into You' and 'You Shook Me All Night Long'. Let us be teenagers again for a while.
pcl2

Bon Scott.

Anyway, the album was released as a tribute to the late Bon. As for the title track there’s no mistaking this. Which makes the fake song following quite interesting. It’s claiming to be a demo version of 'Back in Black' with Bon Scott singing! This track has turned up on the odd AC/DC bootleg although we don’t know when it first surfaced or who did record it. But, it’s not that badly done.
