Sonic Youth - Goo

Oohy, gooey, munch & chewy

Had to correct a wrongful act & replace the copy that went walkabouts from my collection a few year back.
A worthy addition that everybody should own

Continued thread

Cuando uno ve como se luce St. Vincent sobre el escenario se entiende por qué en esta gira ella es el show principal y Kim Gordon la invitada. O sea, no se puede dudar del currículum de la ex Sonic Youth en el mundo del rock, tiene un talento único y se mantiene activa y vigente sin tener que recurrir a sus glorias pasadas. El año pasado publicó un disco, discazo como solista y, sin duda, verla en vivo es gran lujo.

I read “Ways of Seeing” as a teen because Kim Gordon of #SonicYouth mentioned it in an interview. I re-read it as a young adult, and was impressed by how the book complicated the idea of subjectivity in a way that echoed #feminist thought.

Now in my mid-40s, I’m at the age when it’s been about 20+ years since I’ve read certain seminal, formative texts and it feels like a good time to revisit them. Another one I’ve been thinking about is #Assata.

If you play this where other people can hear it, chances are they're going to say "what are you listening to?!!". (True story.) This is two versions/speeds of the same live Sonic Youth album (Hold That Tiger) played at the same time, as the music gods surely intended. I love it. (Thanks, Pauxlll!!!)

Tonight, 's joins me to talk about art, noise, and whatever else the cool kids will be imitating five years from now.

I’ll also spin Dusty Springfield (icon), INXS (fashion goals), The Bad Plus (Disney jazz, no kidding), Plumb (you remember), The Sundays (sigh), Pavement (crooked rain), the Fresh Prince theme (you know every word), and new Olivia Dean (future icon alert).

Tune in at 6p ET, WFPK — because algorithms don’t love you like real DJs do.
