Some ballads, some experimentation and some howling. Really enjoying exploring their catalog.

I’m only through the first 12” but boy does that second side hit hard. I love that such an “out there” experiment can actually pay off.

What a joy to have such a great sounding performance documenting this era. I wonder if Kramer captured many other unheard recordings at this quality.

Not sure why it has taken me so long to give MMJ a chance. On paper the Will Oldham / Jason Molina leanings of Jim James should have sucked me right in but they were never on my radar. This is a really nice listen. Wasn’t expecting the first side to be so poppy

So glad to have the entire show available on nature’s least convenient format. Incredible performance and the audio sounds amazing. The release is a great capper to a fantastic year for the band.
What a good year for Goose/Geese bands!

Finally received my copy 6 weeks after it was shipped. Definitely the best of their five studio LPs.

Hearing his music for the first time was a highlight this year. Need to find some live material next.

Fun dreamy yachty goodness. More bands need hype stickers like this one

A solid collection of tracks across their discography. Felt like the right transition after listening to Spacemen 3.

Peak Spacemen drones. The perfect prescription while drafting performance reviews.

Subdued rock/pop/folk to help our slow start on this holiday Monday.

After last night’s incredible second set in Detroit, tucking in with everybody’s favorite 80 minute song in the least convenient way possible.

Admittedly my least favorite of their 4 albums, I’d forgotten how hard the back half of Sonic’s side goes. I never knew his killer line, “Your eyes. It’s a day’s work to look into them” was a Laurie Anderson nod.

I got sucked in by the novelty of the opening track but the rest of the album is fantastic. 45 years later and not much else sounds like this!

Huge thanks to @cartwright.bsky.social for tracking down a copy of this for me. A “forever favorite” that I finally have on vinyl.

Definitely not my go-to genre but there are earworms for days on this album

Beautifully recorded, less guitar-forward versions of these songs compared to their live counterparts.
Dustin Hoffman is excellent as is How it Ends. Was eagerly waiting for Silver Rising. Not sure how it stacks up yet.

Listening to the artist for the first time, a friend described this as a panic attack. I generally find it pretty uplifting but I get it.

Another RSD pickup. I’m so used to Spacemen 3’s Rollercoaster that Roky’s vocals threw me for a loop. Love this.
