Chris and Tina were a stunning rhythm section, and made Talking Heads one of the grooviest bands in the planet. Their studio recordings are good, but live they were unstoppable.

Found a great band while looking for background music for my Conan tabletop sessions.

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

Thanks for the tips, I'll check them out :)

My friend and I went and saw Kacey Musgraves live here in Melbourne last night at the Palais Theatre. Country and Western isn't normally my style, but the live performance was not just outstanding, but very much a mix of genres, ranging from classic C&W to Rock. Besides, her voice is stunning to listen to live. Can't find any recordings from last night, but maybe some day someone might empty the content of their phones on youtube ;)

This thread loads even more horribly on phone/tablet for me, since new forum software. Just saying.

Good stuff, poked around the label and didn't see much that I recognize. But I did see James Kelly's projects which I've been a fan of recently (Wife & Bliss Signal)

Not quite sure it is cowardice so much as laziness for most people.

Yeah, I don't particularly think he's doing any philosophical heavy lifting there. He's ultimately more speaking about himself on the cowardice. Still it's a fascinating personal testimony from a very unique walk through life.
