A format I haven’t really touched upon in Gulls Window Circus is compilation LPs. Compilations are rich because they offer a frame of reference through the known artists on them, yet also contain many unknown artists that the compiler can’t help but include. That is catnip to me! Today’s show contains post-punk (and punk) compilations, and offers a wild ride. I hope to do more compilation shows – there is SO much great music to be heard!

A non-rock Gulls Window Circus show that features five recent 12″s [Mudd, Judy And Lynda, Marshall Watson & Cole Odin, Casinoboy, Kaoru Inoue], compilations [Machagistia, Fantastic Voyage, Milagros Del Ritmo II, Extra Muros : Czech Republic, Do You Have The Force? Vol 2, Cosmic Disco Machine Volume Eight, Virtual Dreams II], soundtracks [Three O’Clock High], album reissues [Fridge, Travis Biggs] and new LPs [OMD]. The second hour closes with a track from an LP I doubt you will hear anywhere else: Lou Reed’s ‘Hudson River Wind Meditations’. The record is as divisive as Metal Machine Music was, playing as an ambient extreme.

Rock show featuring a lot of new vinyl releases, almost all are reissues spanning multiple eras, also featuring new Curation Records releases by Thomas Walsh, Steel Fringe, Stewart Forgey, and GospelbeacH, and classic original 70s Lani Hall [of Sergio Mendes fame] doing a cover you will know. Like the past several shows, the concentration is on mid-paced tracks that go well together despite wildly varying eras, genres and geographies.

A rock show that finds a similar, or at least complimentary, feel from a wide net of artists. Many eras, genres and geographies are brought together in what (to me) feels a cohesive way. In the US this week is Thanksgiving, and I wouldn’t mind hearing this show at the table with friends.
