Hey #CVille folks, I’ll be playing bass in a very cool show fusing Malian griot music with American blues on Saturday night at the Front Porch.

Just because… This is Paul Pena with Kargyraa Moan. Paul was a blind bluesman and Morna singer. He learnt about #ThroatSinging from AM radio, and taught himself. He went to Tuva in 1995. That trip was filmed for the documentary Genghis blues.
Kargyraa is a style in which the false vocal folds are activated, which vibrate at half the speed of the vocal cords, producing an octave drop and audible harmonics. In this one I think he hits G♯2.

Traditionally reserved to men, the “Guembri,” a 3-stringed lute-like instrument that goes hand-in-hand with Gnawa music, is given a new life by Yousra Mansour creatively upping her heritage and the roots of blues.

Ila Mata is from album “Nayda!” on Peter Gabriel’s Real World label in 2020.

JOHN LEE HOOKER
Burning Hell
2024 Worldwide reissue

NOW we’re cooking with gas, baby!

JLH is the absolute fucking man. I have more albums by him than I do ANY other #blues artist, and I could listen to his shit ANY TIME, ANY DAY.

This reissue sounds ASTOUNDING; part of Craft Records’ killer Bluesville / Acoustic Sounds Series.

It literally sounds like John is in my study playing live.

This is my SECOND favorite JLH album behind It Serve You Right To Suffer, and I desperately needed a clean copy of this, as my original copy was getting pretty worn down and rough.
Couldn’t be more pleased to have found this.

ROBERT JOHNSON
King Of The Delta Blues Singers
1963 Canada MONO reissue

It’s been a grim last couple of days in the world, folks.
In many places, for many reasons.

It’s never been more important than it is right now to find your peace and solace any place you can.

For me, that place has always been music, and right now, I can’t think of an album that sounds more like how I feel inside than THIS one.

Monday night is a reset, courtesy of the great Robert Leroy Johnson.

Happiest of vibes and holidays to all of you.
Yer friendly neighborhood Vinyl Ape loves you.

THE WHITE STRIPES
Elephant
2022 U.S. 2xLP reissue

One more from Jack and Meg, and an INSANELY good sounding reissue.

I’ll be honest.
YES… I’d be more than ok never hearing “Seven Nation Army” again for the rest of my life.

That was never one of my favorite songs on here. For me, that tune’s always been a guitar riff and little else. And yes, I know I’m in the minority of people who like TWS that feels that way.

All that being said, the rest of the album is stellar.
The Hardest Button To Button, Black Math, Ball And Biscuit, Girl, You Have No Faith In Medicine… just so many slayers.

I’m glad Seven Nation Army is first. I usually just start it on Black Math and let it unfold from there.

Finished mixing and mastering the new Delta Legends album. It's the blues! Helped with the food from last weeks food drive. Reading Elizabeth Moon, Cold Welcome. Took a long nap. Listened to the new album. Built a shelf for the CD Printing printer and laptop recently displaced by my turntable. Printed the Something Blue discs for this week. Now listening to vinyl, Ahmad Jamal, Happy Moods.

PARTY BOYS
No Aggro
1984 U.S. pressing

Oh man, do I love this record. It’s been a long time since I’ve heard it.

This is a SUPER lo-fi mish-mash of #psych , #blues , and tribal #80s #artrock / #punk from Los Angeles.

The band only made three records (this one is their second), but each one is uncompromising and completely unique in their delivery.

There’s something oddly hypnotic about No Aggro, despite how incredibly Lo-fi sounding it is.
Maybe Pere Ubu-ish in some spots? Carrying the spirit of other bands like This Heat, but maybe a little more unhinged? I don’t know.

Regardless, even though it’s probably not for everyone, it’s worth a listen for the sake of pure art.

This record was limited to only 2,000 copies and is numbered #115 .
