Information about the links shown below.
I'm all over the net, following link after link into a tapestry of tangents that often lead down the most amazing rabbit holes. A lot of them are music-related, as you'd imagine. Who doesn't love the rewarding late-night link-fest that teaches, opens, gives and takes in its interactive glory? Here I offer up some rich planting grounds from which these often spring.
Amusing Anomalies
Radiohead's "Creep"
A fairly large Flash video (so be patient, dial-up should not attempt) to Thom Yorke's acoustic version of the song. Same feeling I get when I hear The Talking Heads' "Remain in Light"....
boar.dom
"On the web since 1994," this dude travels, photographs, blogs & creates fearlessly.
Sites Where I Live....
OLGA
The Online Guitar Archive: a user-submitted, ever-growing treasure trove of chords and tabs.
Air America Radio
Only the BEST political talk radio on the air. O soothsayers, our hope lies with thee!
Sub Pop Records
Small record label that puts out powerful music, offers an mp3 or two from each band. Check out Iron & Wine.
Sundance Film Fest
Indie filmmakers and musicians converge in this little resort town in Utah once a year to produce some of the best media available. Flash is a must for this site, high-speed connection helps as well.
KCRW Online
KCRW, the L.A.-based public radio station that's home to the show "Morning Becomes Eclectic," which hosts live acoustic sets from an assortment of *usually* indie-bands and musicians. Streaming web radio, as well as mp3 format. Great stuff-- listen as you surf!
