I used to love U2. It was a big day – a humid, windy, overcast day – when, after school, I got to ride my bike across town to the shopping mall on the day of release for U2’s “The Unforgettable Fire.” I was 14. Early surprise favorite was of course, “Bad,” as well as “A Sort of Homecoming.” But there was this other, odd, song – the longest song – on the B-side called “Elvis Presley and America.” It had no verse, it had no chorus, it just kept going, and changing as it went. The story goes, it was just U2 improvising in the studio with Brian Eno. This was the first record U2 had done with Eno and Lanios. And, although I didn’t love it, I certainly didn’t hate it either. It intrigued me. I tried to figure out the words – most of Bono’s lyrics were pretty hard to figure out at this time if they weren’t printed out on a lyric sheet (like the next, breakthrough album would provide), and – truth be told – probably better off that they’re shrouded in mystery, and, anyway, I never really figured out much from this track. Through the years of liking U2 less and less, this song, “Elvis Presley and America” still gets me. It’s obviously the most free, loose, risky (why not save this for a B-side? what’s this doing on the album?) and dare I say “out there” U2 had ever been or would ever be again. Bono sounds like he’s just waking up, and The Edge is strumming chords – which he never does – channeling something from somewhere else, just rolling and rolling, and just when it sounds like the wheels are falling off in the mucky bog, the sun breaks out and Edge and Bono victoriously come together for what has to be their most experimental song to this day. Although songs like “With or Without You” or “One” are still capable of giving you chills, “Elvis Presley and America” has to be U2’s most magical piece of music ever recorded.

Time Thief
Here’s a month’s worth of new music found since the last post. Summer’s turning busy, and too bad it feels almost over. You just can’t deny the sun’s angle in the sky and the way it makes you feel like autumn. And the fact that sunrise is closing in on 7am again. Highlight of the summer/year so far is reuniting with old friends that I lost contact with some 20+ years ago. What an incredible 18 or so hours. Much too short but it sounds like we may hopefully be able to get together again in the not so distant future. I just can’t stop thinking about everybody. Gregg: I apologizing for smiling giddily for the first few hours non-stop pretty much before someone hit FF on father time and before you knew it, I was not able to express myself fully and find out more about whatcha been doin’, as Oberon and lack of sleep was fucking with us all. Fun Beatles set though. And it’s difficult to get back to the daily routine, and the inevitability of lots of change/very busy days ahead, in the near future with school, soccer, etc. Blarggie, blarggie.

Still looking for Aquarelle (brand new) as well as Old News #6 (not even out yet), as well as Container LP (ditto), oh, and the Starving Weirdos LP on Bo’Weavil.

Feed the Collapse
Been about two-and-a-half weeks since my last report. Let’s see, a lot’s happened since then it seems. School got out, then he got sick. My allergies have continued to annoy this year. Then everybody got the fever / stomach flu. Just on the mend now. the weather got kinda nice for a few days, but then got pretty bad. The second full day of summer, today, the high did not even reach the average low temperature (59). Soccer finished, but still more time consuming meetings. Got my last batch of freelance work; just finished it tonight! So… hopefully the weather finally turns around and we can get outside. Also need to do a forced exposure order soon. Focus on kids, music, blog posts and ripping vinyl.

Never Learn Not To Love
Working on Neptune "primer" CD, 2CD compilation for Sarah and Aaron. Huge Yo La Tengo detour today as well, nice for spring, yet we’re under a winter storm warning scheduled to receive 7”-10” Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. I will be lucky if there’s school on Wednesday. Update: no school on Wednesday. I will be lucky if there is an allergy shot today.

Too Much is Not Enough
Not much to say this week. Haven't felt good all week. Continued the bad cold, then just sort of started feeling off (too much caffeine? not enough caffeine?).

Standing Up Straight
Jeff and holly visit for a two night stay. Lots of playoff football, soup, Indian food, snacks, jokes, etc. Toy Story 3 from Netflix.
More snow and the coldest temps of the season so far expected later this week. Lake effect advisory from Thurs-Fri along with arctic air. It’s been so dark and cloudy during the day, not noticing the sunlight change so much in the morning or the evening this week.
I’m predicting Packers (vs. Bears) and Jets (vs. Steelers) in this year’s Big Game.
Wednesday focused heavily on burning CDs that have been mounting: missed 2010 releases, new, January 2011 releases and some loose ends in general. Cleaned up Superlongevity Five (and burned on three unmixed CDs in vinyl running order), Ielasi Stunts.
Other focus musically this week has been on Students of Decay (Ryonkt), Opitope, Asuna, Senufo Editions, Spekk, Chihei Hatakeyama, Jefre Cantu Ledesma (“Black is the Colour” and the “Within Mirrors” DVD), the latter still available from Mimaroglu. Might have to bite on that and the new Gregg Kowalsky on Senufo Editions when Keith gets it in (or, if, hopefully).

So Far
Busy checking year end lists/charts from: Dusted, Boomkat, Root Blog, Wire, OM, AQ, VT, and other blogs. Didn't think I'd fall for it this year, but did.
***remember to check out the two latest Oh Sees records on In The Red.
Brief interest in grabbing all the SYR records - the 9th installment is due out in February.
Just learned about new NFL overtime rules for the playoffs. Sounds like a good adjustment.
The sun seems to be - I should say 'light' - seems to be lasting longer in the evening - about 5:30pm. "Sunrise", however, is stuck at 8:20am. Been cloudy as hell for nearly 2 months straight ~ no joke.
Saw the piliated woodpecker twice this week, once being on new year's day. gotta mean good things, right?
Gotta get with Rick about *the big idea*
