Hi! I write about music at various spots (@thequietus.com, @thewiremagazine.bsky.social, Shfl and my Patreon, also in the past @allmusic.com, @pitchfork.com, @bandcamp.com etc. etc.). Plus podcasting about #Tolkien with friends at @bythebywater.bsky.social
- *The* most favorite, I dunno, but given that Spacemen 3 bootleg @chunkletindustries.bsky.social shared out earlier, they're on my mind so: "Take Me To The Other Side." First actual song I ever heard from them and honestly it's such a perfect lyrical/sonic statement of purpose.
- So over on FB @chunkletindustries.bsky.social talked about his Spacemen 3 obsession (rightly) and shared a very clean sounding tape of them in Kassel, Germany, 1989. Enjoy. Attn. @quartzcity.bsky.social and @highway62.bsky.social and @catbus.phd and etc. fromsmash.com/WsrnG.i30j-ft
- I gotta say, seeing him out of the gate as Q the night TNG debuted on 1987, that was a wild ride. "Encounter at Farpoint" is nobody's idea of a truly great episode but right from his "Stay where thou art" move, it was insane gold.
