Interesting Jim,

I was just at Pro Musica in Chicago yesterday. They had a Beatles Box set listening session.

And I finally got to hear Quads for the first time!

When this (above) was recorded in 1983, Keith O. Johnson was at the 45 rpm machine and Chicago Pro Musica consisted of 11 musicians. This album was recorded at the Medinah Temple in Chicago, FYI. It is an excellent recording if you ever see one for sale

Getting ready for my first ever DJ gig. At the SMART Museum in Chicago. Since it is an art museum, I get to go a bit off-the-beaten track and experimental. To tie in with an exhibit that opens there tomorrow, I will be spinning German and Northern European pychedelia & art rock.

Can't decide if I want to start off with Can or Neu. Or if I want to further limit myself to bands with only 3 letters in their name (no acronyms don't count).

Playlist when it's over, please. You can do The Move Shazam, Cherry Blossom Clinic Revisited, it's got the whole classical thing going. And it's long enough you can take a potty break!

Sounds like a blast! Enjoy!

It was a hoot. I started out with Can's Tago Mago, then hit Neu's "Neu!" Followed that with some more rcent stuff in the same vein: Mew and Dungen. And then ended up with Can stuff from The Lost Tapes. Worked great for an art museum crowd

The KBC Band was formed in 1985 by former Jefferson Airplane (later Jefferson Starship) members Paul Kantner (guitar and vocals), Marty Balin (vocals and guitar) and Jack Casady (bass). Other members included Keith Crossan (saxophone, guitar & vocals), Tim Gorman (keyboards and vocals), Mark "Slick" Aguilar (guitar and vocals) and Darrell Verdusco (drums). Their debut LP, "KBC Band", featured the moderate hit "America"

The wife needs some music for a Romanticism in literature class so I'm burning some tunes for her.

Bill,

thanks for posting this. I was about to ask you about this album. I have never seen it, but now I will be looking for it. Nice haul from DD.
