Been taking a rare break and having a quiet weekend of reading and writing for myself.

Super excited about this LP release of Alvin Lucier’s seminal 60s works, Vespers & Chambers, via Blume Editions. It was a great honor to write the liner notes. Currently available via @soundohm

For the heads. Among other things, note the translator.

Thought I’d throw this one out there because I doubt many people are aware of it. Most will know Landry for his 2 records on Chatham Sq, 15 Saxophones, reissued by @unseen_worlds a number of years back, and his work in Philip Glass’ ensemble, but he was also one of the great photographic documenters of the NY art and experimental music worlds during the 60s and 70s. Great things within - my favorite being a series of Glass playing badminton w/ Bruce Nauman - Steve Reich, Moondog, Gordon Matta Clark, Jon Gibson, and a bunch of others. Published by University of Louisiana press a while ago. #dickylandry #richardlandry

Stuck on the Carnatic tip. This is an interesting one, released in 1971, a handful a years after Naidu passed away, gathering shorter, 78 rpm era renderings of Ragas, which is a really different sensibility from what you tend to encounter on LPs, cassettes, and CDs. Super great. #ontheturbtable #nowplaying #indianclassicalmusic #carnaticmusic #violin #dwaramvenkataswamynaidu

Launching into the day w/ this beauty by Sundaram Balachander, issued by Gramophone Company of India in 1970. #ontheturntable #nowplaying #sundarambalachander #sbalachander #indianclassicalmusic #carnaticmusic #veena
