Hot Wax

HWSC & Logues return for Episode 5 and we're singing the praises of Andrew Bird.This one is about world building. As in, building the world you want to see from the sound that's inside your head... Whatever that looks like for you. Andrew Bird knew what he was doing when he took some time off the gypsy jazz and went back to Galena, IL to hammer out the unique sounds that would become the Mysterious Production of Eggs. An album that literally sounds you've been swept away to some sort of dream world with weird weather systems and noble beasts.  Listen to us on Fountain.fm and holler at us on Wisp (or your nostr client of choice). If you can't do that, email us at [email protected] .  Find the Companion to this episode on nostr and on https://hotwax.club (where we have also added some new easter eggs like the Club Constitution) We forgot to announce on this episode, but Radiohead is next (spoiler). Someone recently asked for a special episode on Jay Reatard dedicated to the plebs. Was it you? We casually threw out some albums we might do this year, but we're relaxing. We're freeestyling, dawg. You can find the list in older episode descriptions, but it's no matter. We are open to requests though!  Hot Wax Social Club: npub1er2vkexlh7kd56j929crc4stw83hqzvl0xpewsrv3ceyda9ld3xszwjwex Logues: npub1mc909r6rtu2kfmzfy9u5vzy60jlhgqgzty0jqlz0qhkdraxcypcqduvk2m This pressing: GRIMSEY 032 https://www.discogs.com/release/14764877-Andrew-Bird-The-Mysterious-Production-Of-Eggs

Today I want to talk about The Rolling Stones. There's a good chance you're thinking "Who?" or "Oh brother, must we continue to milk this poor chapped teat?"But listen, this band is important to the philosophy of the Club and this program and I'll tell you a little more about that. And their album Some Girls is a Rolling Stones starter pack if you're uninitiated. Let your hair down and maybe give this one a spin....Extra info for this episode will be posted to Nostr (long form events) as well as to the club site at  https://hotwax.club  This specific copy (as far as I can tell): COC 39108https://www.discogs.com/release/2399029-The-Rolling-Stones-Some-GirlsLP, Album, 2nd Version (Faces Removed) ---------We are open to requests. Some other reviews we might do in this first crop, in no particular order:The Wonder Years, the Police (the band, not the cops), Arlo Guthrie, Santana, Sex Pistols (I guess), Common, Sufjan Stevens, Beastie Boys, The Rolling Stones, 'Tallica, Led Zep, Talking Heads, of Montreal, Fugees, Phoenix, Pixies, IDLES, the Offspring, Beach House, and more!  

Logues here, we're running episode 2. My theory is that deep down, every punk rock musician you know is a theater kid. This is the Offspring's "art" record, and it's arguably their best. Tune in for surprising (or not surprising) comparisons to thrash metal.  Spin something. Supplemental information for this episode will be posted to Nostr (long form events) as well as to the club site at  https://hotwax.club  Consider following the Hot Wax Social Club:  npub1er2vkexlh7kd56j929crc4stw83hqzvl0xpewsrv3ceyda9ld3xszwjwex Consider following Logues:  npub1mc909r6rtu2kfmzfy9u5vzy60jlhgqgzty0jqlz0qhkdraxcypcqduvk2mThis specific copy: ORG Music (catalog ORGM-2033) https://www.discogs.com/release/7146197-The-Offspring-Americana Some other reviews we might do in this first crop, in no particular order:The Wonder Years, the Police (the band, not the cops), Arlo Guthrie, Santana, Sex Pistols (I guess), Common, Sufjan Stevens, Beastie Boys, The Rolling Stones, 'Tallica, Led Zep, Talking Heads, of Montreal, Fugees, Phoenix, Pixies, IDLES, the Offspring, Beach House, and more!

Call me Logues.  Doors are now open at the Hot Wax, and this is the maiden episode. We're talking about I'm New Here by Gil Scott-Heron. It seemed like a poetic start to the podcast. This thing is like watching a movie with your ears, and I think it's got something for everybody. This specific copy: XL Recordings gatefold (catalog XLLP471) .
