A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

I've never understood people who say they don't like jazz. I grew up with my parents listening to it constantly, so to me it just seems elemental. It's like saying you don't like the sound of wind.

Discogs reports that Tuesday Weld song was produced by David Axelrod. In other news, I had no idea until moments ago this was a Neil Young cover. Always thought it was a St. Etienne original. The Andrew Weatherall mix is next level (of course, the Lou Vega/Ken Dope mix is also superb).
