Paul Long’s Lyndon B. Johnson Editorial Unearthed

15/02/20 at 3.41pm   /   by deepster19   /   0 Comment

Paul Long ImageThere are stunning developments in the ongoing crusade to locate a copy of the editorial delivered by Paul Long on Lyndon B. Johnson back in the late-eighties.  The mixtape produced by The Shark entitled “New Sounds In College” (tracklist below), contains THE most sought-after piece of audio from the Club Bamford years, albeit a partial recording.  The Depeche Mode dominated mixtape, which was under my bed this entire time, contains a 17-second audio-only clip of the editorial.  Sadly, it does not, I repeat does not, possess the portion about the teleprompter or the “what did he say” exchange.  We’ll take what we can get at this point.

Coupon GuaranteeThe Paul Long editorial rivals only the Coupon Guarantee as the most referenced subject in Club Bamford mythology.

Paul Long was a highly regarded Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania anchorman who worked at the ABC affiliate WTAE Action News from 1969 to 1994.  It wasn’t until around the late-eighties that Mr. Long began to develop a cult following, which still exists long after his untimely passing at the tender age of 86 back in 2002.

Without further ado…  I present Paul Long’s majestic voice in digitally remastered form.

 

 

Let the crusade continue… Rumor has it that Gabes may have the entire copy.

Lower Dens Share Video For “To Die In L.A.”

15/02/20 at 2.20pm   /   by deepster19   /   0 Comment

Lower DensBaltimore, Maryland indie rockers Lower Dens have recently announced that their third studio album Escape From Evil will drop on March 31.  This is the first we’ve heard from the band since their solid 2012 sophomore album Nootropics.  In addition to the album announcement, they shared a video for the first single “To Die In L.A.” and revealed a handful of East Coast tour dates this spring.  If you enjoy the music of Beach House, you’ll dig Lower Dens.

Since Lower Dens is not playing the 2015 Coachella Festival, I will add them to my 2016 Coachella Perfect Poster Wish List, it’s never too early to start on that.

Top Albums For The Week Of February 10, 2015

All We AreEach week I post the Top 20 College Radio Albums courtesy of CMJ (College Media Journal).  Below are also 5 discs that I have in heavy rotation and an album that amazingly turns 10 years old in 2015, I call it my Spicy 6.

Sleater-Kinney has the #1 album on College Radio for the second week in a row.  Four new albums enter the Top 20, two of which debut in the Top 200. The first big debut is from Kingston, Pennsylvania’s pride and joy, Title Fight.  The second one comes from Nashville singer-songwriter Natalie Prass.  The other two new albums are from the Los Angeles six-piece Dengue Fever and the Liverpool based band All We Are.  The trio All We Are (pictured) shouldn’t be confused with the pretend band Are We Them.  The Decemberists are still #1 on my Spicy Six countdown, and will be there for quite some time.  The band’s latest album What A Terrible World, What A Beautiful World is truly the most perfect album.  Every song on this 14-track masterpiece is perfection!  This summer, Plans, the fifth studio album from Death Cab For Cutie turns 10.  Man, I can listen to the tune “Soul Meets Body” everyday of the world.

turntable1Father John Misty

I Love You, Honeybear

This is the second studio release from J Tillman, aka Father John Misty.  The latest release by the former Fleet Foxes’ member is funny enough at times to make you shit yourself, so I’m told.  Who knew?  Watch the video for the track “Chateau Lobby #4 (In C For Two Virgins)” below.

Download I Love You, Honeybear here:

Peace  Happy People

English indie rockers Peace hail from Worcester.  This is their much-anticipated (at least in my world) sophomore release.  Their debut album In Love was one of the best albums of 2013, IMO.  These dudes are near the top of my list of bands that I really want to see live. If you dig FOALS, you’ll love Peace. Enjoy the groovy “Lost On Me” below.

Death Cab For Cutie Shares “Black Sun” Video, Expands Tour.

Late-Add For Coachella Remains Possible

15/02/11 at 1.35pm   /   by deepster19   /   0 Comment

Death CabIndie pop stalwarts Death Cab For Cutie have had a busy couple of weeks as they prepare for the release of the eighth studio album Kintsugi on March 31.

The Bellingham, Washington outfit have already shared the first single from the album “Black Sun,” and recently performed it live on Late Night With David Letterman.  Now comes the official video for the track which stars the living and breathing Ben Gibbard himself.

What’s more, the group has expanded their already lengthy world tour with more U.S. dates, support will be provided by The Antlers, Explosions In The Sky, Built To Spill, and everyone’s favorite band to type-out, tUnE-yArDs.  A glaring hole remains between the Mesa, Arizona show on April 10 and the Kansas City, Missouri show on April 23, leaving open the possibility of a Coachella late-add.  The band would fit perfect on the Sunday schedule that’s already EMO friendly.  If you’re interested, here are the actual tour dates.

The band is moving forward without guitarist Chris Walla, who recently departed after 17 years with the band.  However, the band confirmed that Mr. Walla was involved in every way with the making of the new album Kintsugi.

The Mats will play a string of 13-dates, starting in Seattle on April 9, and finishing up in Philly on May 9.  Some of the notable stops include – an April 16 show at the Hollywood Palladium, and a May 5 show at Stage AE in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  Tickets for the Hollywood show went on sale today, use the presale code BEATBOX.  Tickets are $69, of course they are.  Tickets for the Pittsburgh show are on sale to the general public on February 20, mark your Day-Timer.

The Hollywood show takes place on what is traditional known as Coachella Arrival Day, the Thursday prior to the Coachella Festival weekend.  My trip up to the Hollywood Palladium for The Mats, and then off to Indio, California, aka The Promised Land, should make for a long but very memorable day.  The group played the 2014 Coachella Festival almost exactly a year ago to the day.

Up to this point, the Westerberg and Stinson led band has mostly played festival shows over the last two years.  The band has left open the possibility of a new album down the road.  We shall see!

April 9: Paramount Theatre, Seattle, WA
April 10: Crystal Ballroom, Portland, OR
