The Great Society just wasn't anything like the Airplane. This has always seemed an interesting curiosity that underscores that point.

"Take the Money and Run" was a pretty low point IMO.

Rob W:

A note on the last set: Minimal Compact’s members were actually all Israeli, but based in Europe - first Amsterdam, then Brussels where they hooked up w/ Crammed Discs. Berry Sakharof from Minimal Compact has gone on to a very successful solo career back in Israel - some of his stuff is quite interesting, worth exploring. I particularly recommend his collaboration with Rea Moshiach, “Ibn Gabirol” (set to texts by the Sephardic poet of that name; tinyurl.com...). Recently the band has done a few reunion concerts / short tours including in 2016.
Avatar 10:37pm
HollyT:

It occurs to me that there was a time from about 80 to 83 when a lot of 70s rockers were trying to put out quasi-new-wave records
Avatar 10:37pm
Dave Mandl:

Thanks, Rob. Yeah, I discovered them through the Crammed network back in the '80s. A good friend of mine also used to know Malka Spiegel, who was (is?) married to Colin Newman.

He's one of these aggressive homeless guy's who is ripped (seen him in the summer) and his deal is just aggressively getting in everyone's face.

Jake, there was a "homeless" guy in my town a few years ago who headbutted me once - then acted like he was just kidding around. (rather roughly, but...)
- it never occurred to me until now that maybe he really was trying to hurt me and only acted like he was kidding because i didn't fall down.
