Sweet & Honey-Live at Your Cosmic Mind

Fuck it, every post today is coming from Japan. I could easily do a whole month drawing from that country but then I might start sounding like one of those creepy white guys with a weirdo Asian fetish (aka every one of my friends). I ripped this off my vinyl copy long ago, so it's probably not up to the high standards that many of you demand. My apologies but I really don't know what the fuck I am doing. I'm not even sure what a bit rate is. I guess higher is better, right? Well, this, I assume, must be super low unless I by chance figured it out unbeknownst to me. What I do know is that this record is great, especially if you're in the mood for some Japanese psych rock. It's Masaki Batoh (from my beloved Ghost) and maybe a guy or two from White Heaven (can't confirm or deny this one), and it will fill that missing gap in your Hawkwind catalog.

Damon & Naomi with Ghost

In the mood for more Alex Chilton? Might I recommend this tasty morsel. Damon & Naomi are sure to be known from their days in the V.U. influenced Galaxy 500. But this might be the best Big Star cover of all time, despite the numerous times they've been covered. Blue Moon, here completely shines, but that's not to dismiss the rest of this fantastic album. Ghost is always welcome around here, and when they pair up with 2/3rds of another amazing band, you should know you're in for some good shit. This isn't some dreamy, gazey, dream pop, but some truly awesome psych,/folk/pop that pulls at the heart strings. Play on players.
