May The Circle Remain Unbroken: A Stribute to Roky Erickson, 2021 on LIght In The Attic

Posthumous tribute album for Roky Erickson by the same producer who assembled Where the Pyramid Meets the Eye, which was a 1990 tribute album that introduced my to many of his songs (though I also knew the 13th Floor Elevators LPs).

Tracklist and participants:

• Billy F. Gibbons – “(I’ve Got) Levitation”
• Mosshart Sexton – “Starry Eyes”
• Jeff Tweedy – “For You (I’d Do Anything)”
• Lynn Castle & Mark Lanegan – “Clear Night For Love”
• The Black Angels – “Don’t Fall Down”
• Neko Case – “Be and Bring Me Home”
• Margo Price – “Red Temple Prayer (Two-Headed Dog)”
• Gary Clark Jr. & Eve Monsees – “Roller Coaster”
• Ty Segall – “Night of the Vampire”
• Lucinda Williams – “You’re Gonna Miss Me”
• Chelsea Wolfe – “If You Have Ghosts”
• Brogan Bentley – “May The Circle Remain Unbroken”

Plus a “Record Store Day only” 7″ flexi-disc single with Erickson himself doing “Love Hieroglyphics” from “the early ’70s.”

My copy—via Down in the Valley in Golden Valley, MN—included the 7″ flexi-disk. as well as a 16 page book.

Bill Evans, Polka Dots and Moonbeams, 1967 (aka Bill Evans Trio, Moon Beams, 1962) on Riverside

This 1967 reissue of the 1962 album Moon Beams (which was credited to the Bill Evans Trio) is credited to Bill Evans and retitled to Polka Dots and Moonbeams – also given a new cover. (The original cover featured Nico, years before her time with the Velvet Underground).

Personnel here include Chuck Israels on bass and Paul Motian on drums. The original LP was produced by Orrin Keepnews, but this remastering was supervised by Bob Thiele. The original came out a year after Sunday at the Village Vanguard and only three years after Evans played on Kind of Blue.

My copy via Down in the Valley in Golden Valley MN – in really good shape.

Eels, The Myspace Transmissions / Transmission Session 2009, 2009 on E Works

I’m a huge fan of Mark Oliver Everett (aka E) and Eels so was super excited to find this record at Down in the Valley in Golden Valley MN.

These were made available for streaming and download at https://www.myspace.com/transmissions/ though I don’t think they are there anymore.

Great version of Dylan’s “Girl From the North Country” as well as “My Beloved Monster”
