It seems to EXIST on cd.
But how many copies? One hundred?
A record seller told me it was on catalog as a material cd.
The cover is cool, I like to see it myself. |

dog sleep is a great song. maybe the best way to listen to it is on sleep deprivation. i don't know, but the "little bird" part of the song, it is one of the most unique compositions i have ever heard. the rhythm is disorienting and does not fit well into any normal conception of music. however, i believe that is what makes frank great; when he challenges conventionality.
where the wind is going is also really growing on me. the keyboard part is light and airy, and the whole song has a kind of "catholics" vibe to it. anyone else agree? anyways it's stuck in my head: "through the barley corn/through the rows of places i was born..."
i'd like to know who did what on each of these tracks. also, what recording method. |

| No, I don't agree. I don't get that Catholics vibe. More Randy Newman. |

here's my guess for where the wind is going;
frank - guitar, vocals
dave p.- guitar, vocals
EDF - piano, vocals

"Where The Wind" was from the last day of the HONEYCOMB sessions with Cropper and Reggie Young on guitars, Spooner on keys, David Hood on bass, and I believe Akil Thompson on drums (although my memory does play tricks on me and it could have been his dad Chester).
"Dogsleep" is from the sessions at Jack's a few months later, and it's Levon Helm and Billy Block on drums, Bob Babbitt and Tom Petersson on basses, Ian McLagan on keys, mostly Lyle on guitar but there could be a little Cropper & Duane Jarvis creeping in, Wayne Jackson on trombone, and Frank Black on vocals and a taste of the ukelele.
I hope I'm not forgetting anyone, but I'm doing this from memory so a thousand pardons if I have.
bye,
Jon Tiven |

Whoah! I haven't heard the song (won't be listening until the album's release--that and I don't understand the whole "podcast" thing and how that's supposed to work), but I keep on seeing "brass" and "brass-heavy" and "horns" and "trumpets", and I think I must have died and gone to heaven. I LOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEE me some good brass sounds!!!! Actually, I'm getting a little horny just thinking about it...sorry, stupid pun.

Okay, I decided to go ahead and listen and, WOW!!!!!!!!! Just when I had rediscovered Honeycomb and thought it was the perfect Frank Black album, I think this one might be even better!

| It's strange that in the same time Honeycomb is so coherent and perfect, but actually doesn't have BETTER songs than Show me your tears. I tend to think SMYT got the best tracks, but some songs arrangements lack some relief (The Snake, Jaina Blues...) and slow down the listening of the album. And that counts for all the Catholis albums, even my fav' Black Letter Days. |

"Where The Wind Is Going" is really a pretty catchy song. It doesn't blow me away (no pun intended), but few Frank songs do that right away.

Anyone thought of how much the guitar solos on that song are going to disgust the square indie noise fans?
It reminds me of the words of the ironical "Freedom Rock". |

| The little pause/weird time signature/mistake that occurs by the time the second chorus of WTWIG kicks in (I think it's the "leaves my simple gaze" part), do you guys think it's on purpose? Very off-throwing(?)... |

it seems that this entire record will have a lot of things that confuse our mere mortal brains. jon tiven seems to be a very good producer for frank (after all, he hooked up frank with lyle workman in 93). i wonder if tiven has any plans to produce the upcoming frank/EDF record...

EDF is quite a good producer on his own. Ever heard a little record called Teenager of the Year?

no. who is this "teenager of the year" you speak of?
no, I think this upcoming EDFBlack record is going to be great. but first, we get Fastman Raiderman, which is also going to be great.

The new song will definitly grow on me. Much of Honeycomb took some time for me to love it as well, but thats only because it is very different from any of his previous work. I'll know that it's a great song when it begins creeping uninvited, yet welcomed into my subconcious mind.

There. I have fixed my signature. Could not get the cult icon to work, though.

If you go back and edit your own post you'll see how it should look.

EDF is a solid bass player as well. I wonder if he came up with the bass lines he played on TOTY? They aren't flashy, but they are perfectly written and excecuted. It is my opinion that EDF is a cool cat.
Oh, cheese. Wonderful cheese. I love you. |
