Just a quick note to say I've uploaded the third set of this podcast, in which Our Heroes turn the fluorescent lights off in the office building, kick back and enjoy the tuneage, Memorex-style.

Fourth set to follow!

Jack Name - Pure Terror

Still mining gems from the Jessica Pratt twitter feed. When will it end? Maybe never. Anyroad, here's a jammer with a kind of Classic Rock 101 chord progression (e.g., "Dear Mr. Fantasy") that somehow transcends the conventions to become a true New Year's Eve Jammer that will carry you through 2013 and well into the mid-2010's.

Happy New Year, good people, looking forward to more good tunes and good times ahead.

The Jack Name LP drops in 2014!

For persons seeking two and a half hours (and counting!) of deplorable self-indulgence from me and my mates, see here.

Podcast #8, recorded the night of Sunday December 22nd / Monday December 23rd, 2013:
first set
second set
third set
fourth set

Featuring ArtDecadeMike, Sheridan Dupre, Emmett, and a special call-in from Big B in Texas!

If you feel that this ends too soon, not to worry; this is just the first 2 hours. Set three to be uploaded soon!

You didn't hear? It's all going down tonight (Friday December 6) at Cafe Dancer, on Manhattan's fashionable Lower East Side, 10 pm to 2 am. You should definitely come to this - no matter what.

I got the 45 of this, which I'll probably play, and of course I'll inevitably end up playing this again. Maybe ring in some holiday cheer with this? And if things go exceptionally well - this.

See you there, rastas!

P.S.: I think I'm going to play this one and this one too.

Podcast #7, recorded the evening of Sunday November 3rd/Monday November 4th, 2013:
part 1

Please join Sheridan Dupre, me, Terry Melcher, Robert Zemeckis, Candice Bergen, Dinah Shore, Shecky Green, Werner Herzog, Walter Spade, Martin Amis, Roman Polanski, Donald Fagen, Fagin, Walter Becker, and countless others for 2+ hours of good tunes and fourth-rate persiflage.

[This is just the first hour and 25 minutes.  Part 2 to be uploaded shortly.]

part 2

...featuring David Crosby, Grace Slick, William Shapesphere, Johnny's Records, Peter Max, and thousands more.

Podcast #6, recorded in the wee hours of Wednesday October 30th, 2013:

part 1 (100 megabytes)
part 2 (102 megabytes)

...and there's yet another epic podcast already recorded featuring Sheridan Dupre (!!!!), which will also be uploaded "soon."  I know, I know; I'm the worst.

I'm DJing again at Cafe Dancer (96 Orchard Street, just south of Delancey Street, Manhattan) on Friday December 6th at 10 PM, so mark your calendars for that, and please excuse my relative inactivity on this blog as I focus on stockpiling festive vinyl to play at that event.

P.S.  Email me if you want to know what any of the songs are in the podcast.

The above is happening Saturday night, on the Lower East Side.  I'm considering playing this.  Please do cruise by.

Hey friends, did you know that Zach Phillips of Blanche Blanche Blanche did a guest mix for us? Well, he did, and you can listen to it here.

You can also find myriad sounds from Zach and his brethren at OSR Tapes, and pre-order the new Blanche Blanche Blanche LP forthcoming on NNA Tapes.
