Four decades back a major label released a debut album that sounded like almost nothing on earth while still sounding incredibly familiar. Our man in San Francisco Ned Raggett takes stock of it all

Happy Birthday to the JAMC's Psychocandy, which turns 40 today!

Going through the official 1957 NATO Cookbook (?) and there’s a section where they asked the various heads of state to contribute recipes. You can tell which branch of the Nassaus converted to Catholicism and which one stayed Protestant.

Some translated quotes from a 1936 Dutch cookbook I’m leafing through that’s trying to teach Indonesian and Indonesian Chinese cuisine to Great Depression era housewives in Holland.
“Garlic is used in nearly every dish, but much less of it is used than onion. It too is available here, although not everywhere.” “There are two kinds of curry powder in circulation; namely the English kind, originally from British-India, which is very spicy and available at every grocer; and the Indonesian kind, which has a mild taste and is available in the Indonesian shops and select grocers. The latter is not damaging to the stomach of children (Meaning suitable for children above the age of six).” “Mee, Chinese macaroni, can be found dried at a few grocers and at Indonesian shops. A good substitute is the Italian spaghetti.”

It’s truly tragic how many of these US war criminals like Cheney never face justice and die in their peacefully in their homes in their 80s and 90s. I want to be happy he is dead but I am not. The million people he killed didnt get the luxury to die how he did.

Multi-instrumentalist, record producer, arranger & sound designer, soundtrack composer & college professor Joseph Byrd -- leader of The United States of America, and who, in 1968, recorded 'The American Metaphysical Circus,' credited to Joe Byrd & the Field Hippies -- has died at 87. More: alt text
Richie Unterberger writes: Rock groups are supposed to be hatched in garages and inner-city lofts, not the upper reaches of academia. That wasn't going to stop Joseph Byrd, experimental composer and ethnomusicologist from the UCLA New Music Workshop, from devising a plan in 1967 to approach rock'n'roll from the opposite direction. Byrd, who had frequented avant-garde circles since hanging around with Terry Riley, LaMonte Young, and Virgil Thomson in the early '60s, used the United States of America to bring cutting-edge electronics, Indian music, and "serious" composition into psychedelic rock and roll. The group's sole, self-titled album in 1968 was a tour de force (though not without its flaws) of experimental rock that blended surprisingly melodic sensibilities with unnerving blasts of primitive synthesizers and lyrics that could range from misty romanticism to hard-edged irony. For the relatively few who heard it, the record was a signpost to the future with its collision of rock and classical elements, although the material crackled with a tension that reflected the United States of America itself in the late '60s. More: By mid-1968, the grand experiment was over. Conflicting egos, a drug bust, and commercial pressures all contributed to a rapid split. The United States of America may have had their roots in the halls of higher learning, but ultimately they were prey to the same kind of mundane tensions that broke the spirit of many a band that lived and died on the streets. From the time Byrd founded the band in Los Angeles with colleague Michael Agnello, says singer Dorothy Moskowitz, "group dynamics were never a strong point in the USA." Moskowitz, Byrd's ex-girlfriend, had a background in writing and performing for musical theater. She moved from New York to California to join the group and, as she puts it, provide "the requisite schmaltz." Bassist Stu Brotman, once of the stunningly eclectic L.A. psychedelic group Kaleidoscope, was also an early member. But he and Agnello were gone by the time the group began recording for Columbia. Agnello, a radical sort, was arguing with Byrd over leadership of the band, and not sure the act should even be signing to a record label in the first place. "When you ask why the group broke up, well, why did the group even record after it broke it up?" points out Moskowitz. More: Yet the lineup that cohered for the album brought impressive credentials to the table. Electric violinist Gordon Marron expanded the instrument's parameters with a divider that could raiser or lower it an octave, as well as tape echo units and ring modulators. Rand Forbes played an unfretted electric bass, and drummer Craig Woodson would tinker with his sound in unusual ways, attaching contact microphones to his set and suspending slinkies from cymbals to get a musique-concrete effect. Ed Bogas added organ, piano, and calliope. Most of the material was penned by Byrd and Moskowitz, the latter of whose alto delivered the lyrics -- which are alternately evocative and foreboding -- with a cool precision reminiscent of an icier Grace Slick. Byrd was chiefly responsible for the electronic textures that would provide the album with its most distinguishing characteristics. This was 1968, remember, when synthesizers had rarely been employed on rock records. What Byrd crafted were not simulations of strings and horns, but exhilarating, frightening swoops and bleeps that lent a fierce crunch to the faster numbers, and a beguiling serenity to the ballads. Byrd had crucial help in his endeavors from Richard Durrett, who designed the Durrett electronic music synthesizer used by the band, and from Tom Oberheim, who pioneered the use of the ring modulator employed by the USA. Nico, Moskowitz has recalled, tried unsuccessfully to join the band, after leaving the Velvet Underground. More: Add to this mix a fascination with modal playing and Indian music. Byrd and Moskowitz were serious students of North and South Indian music, and had already made little-known contributions to a Folkways LP of Indian music by Gayathri Rajapur and Harihar Rao, recorded in 1965. Country Joe & the Fish, the Doors, and others were opening the gates for modal playing in rock and roll, and the USA were one of the first ones through; Frank Zappa had also opened the possibilities for incorporating ideas from contemporary composition into a rock format. And then there was Byrd's application of concepts from Charles Ives, which simulated marching bands moving from opposite sides of the stereo spectrum... Was it all too much to fit into one album? "As a whole, the album does not have a coherent, unified vision," declares Moskowitz, who now lives near Oakland, California, where she composes music for both adult and children's theatrical events in the San Francisco Bay area. "Joe had vision, but by hiring all these interesting people, it had to be diluted. Everybody had to have their say. I'm told that someone took the album to Apple Records. The Beatles listened to it and asked, 'Which is the band?' If you listen to each song, it's almost like a variety show. "Today you would say, it's a cultural blending of avant-garde music, of elements of Indian music. If you asked me back then, I'm not sure what we were doing. That might have been the basic charm of the group. We were charting territory for which their were no names."

i think a lot of people don't understand what translating a text _is_. languages are not just word-for-word ciphers for each other. translation involves making a lot of complex creative choices, and the longer the text the more complex. it is, ultimately, an act of rewriting from scratch.

Diary excerpt: Friday, August 28, 1942 Last nite depression about the New York trip got me in its grip and it continued this morning. Went over to George's. George went to get a prescription filled and after we came out asked me if I'd noticed a fellow in the booth, saying it was Freddy Pond, I remember with horror how I used to have to go over to his house after school and tutor him in his steps for dancing school. His mother, who later made the costumes for the exhibition, played the piano and Freddy bore it all with genuine patience. Mrs. Pond always said he idolized me but how I hated the whole boring business, just a bit of parental diplomacy. George says that Freddy is now "trade" even tho married and a father. I must admit that I don't know the meaning of that word, so often used among homos, but think it must mean someone who's willing only for money. George is so much more up on such things than I am.

Dennis Cooper and Gary Indiana interview in Robert Ford’s THING Magazine - 1991
Kathryn Hixson: Is your work gay literature? Dennis Cooper: Gay literature isa useless term. It’s only useful marketing wise — the gay community supports its writers. There’s these bookstores that stock the book, publications that review the book — which is great. Heterosexuals don’t tend to get that. But my work is not about homosexuality at all, it's completely relative. It’s useless in that sense. I mean Genet and Burroughs...are they gay writers? Is Bataille a heterosexual writer? Its not about that at all. It’s not about homosexuality except that it’s something that puts you outside of culture, which is where everyone should want to be anyway. KH: It puts you on the outside of culture? DC: It gives you a vantage point, so you don’t have to participate in the same way, in the way society is set up. I mean the rules are set up for people who want to be happy and make a lot of money and have two kids and blah blah blah. If you don’t want that-if you’re gay or not gay, really, you don’t have to play that game- you can observe it. Homosexuals, all minorities, are excluded from being involved in the process, so you work the margins where everything great always happens anyway. KH: You’re saying that you’re marginal and taking the outsider stance, but the writing is saying that you’re not. DC: Well, our writing is not about gay society, gay ritual or thinking about what it means to be homosexual. Who cares? Gary Indiana: It’s not about coming out of the closet. DC: It’s about things that everybody’s... fear of the Other, or obsession- things that everybody can relate to. People who are interested in our work are not just gay people. Most gay people are not interested in our work at all. There are some weirdo gay people who are interested. I’ve been publishing for a long time and I’ve gotten attacked all the time by the gay press, because they say my work is not politically correct: I shouldn’t represent homosexual people as murderers, homosexuals should be repr…
