The latest single-artist series from Recliner Notes will focus on the songs of Stephen Malkmus. From a legacy standpoint, his solo work with and without the Jicks has been slightly taken for granted. Each post in the series will analyze one song from each of the nine solo albums. Watch this space!

So far I've listened to one hour and 15 minutes of the new album from The Necks and only have about two hours left!

Eno diary, 10 Oct 95: "awake at 2, mind on dreadful subjects-how old I am, how little I’ve done. I should drink more...Bowie called from St Louis ‘No drift, just a chat’ - said how hard the band had become, Mozza better watch out. Said Heart’s Filthy Lesson didn’t get a single radio play in England"

I wrote about Rond, my favorite band in Asheville, and the unexpected acts of community-building that happen when they play the small town bar called The Joint Next Door.

It's alway great to read what Jeff Tweedy thinks of other musicians, but I especially enjoyed this interview with @hearingthingsco.bsky.social when he discusses his contemporary Bill Callahan:

I had the same thought about the same time period this afternoon so I'm guessing it's the same album.

I've seen Harper but never this and I love Ross MacDonald

I'd love to see them live. But a dream show would be reuniting the Villarreal/Butterss/Parker trio.

I mean, we never did get an answer on the deal with airplane food.

The album title feels redundant!
