re MIA: not previously familiar - thanks. just love the sound & production style of the drums on so many of the 1970s era euro+ countries = very thick & organic.
(Italian albums in particular consistently captured a great drum sound).

hi mic_a!

yes! reading her books really does feel like that!

she did a reading at Rough Trade in Brooklyn when her second book came out ("To Throw Away Unopened") -- she is super sweet in person too! i told her i had seen The Slits at, among other places, Tier 3 (a/k/a TR3) soooo many years ago (it was a "secret" show but the tiny place was packed, i was practically nose to nose with her), and she signed both books for me

DJ Cat Gosshie arrived in the mail today! could not have happened on a better day (all kinds of stupid stress) -- gotta finish up a few things, then going to open up the package and read while listening -- thank you again! 😺😺

↳ Song: "Kígyó (Snake)" by "Trabant"
Curious, re Hungarian “trabant” album (soundtrack?) - is that a 2024 re-issue of much older material? - cause it definitely sounds very 80s (although I realize that’s been a popular vibe to recreate for awhile now). If I found the correct Discogs entry, suggests the Hungarian band was filled with creative talents of the 80s-90s era. ¿ Hungarian Director Bèla Tarr soundtracks? etc etc.
= great intro regardless! 👏👏👏😃

Ah, and now I have to mention another book -- Rob Young's Can history, "All Gates Open". My favorite takeaway from it was the love story of Irmin and Hildegard Schmidt. They met as teenagers and are still together to this very day! She took over as Can's manager when they finally got free of their first, toxic manager.

hi Eric!

yes, that appears to be the case -- found this on bandcamp: purgexxx.bandcamp.com...

*somewhere* in the black hole that is my apartment, i have the program/booklet from Franklin Furnace's "Hidden Story: Samizdat from Hungary and Elsewhere" -- i am wondering if trabant was involved with, or part of, the exhibition? (which was thoroughly mind-blowing: truly underground and illegal art, music, etc. that could literally land you in jail or worse when these countries were all still Communist -- i realized that i could never really feel the same about "punks" and others in the States whining about being stuck in the suburbs, or whatever)
