Big Black - Way Hap Ultimate Rarities

There are two ways to blog about Big Black, there is the wrong way: Big Black, and there is the right way: BIG BLACK I rambled on about BIG BLACK in this post so I won't bother going through all that crap again. Even though Albini is a weeny little dude with funny little specs he's one manly mother flucker ain't he?! He gives skinny little guys like me hope, I listen to BIG BLACK and feel tough, I swear that my biceps become a little bit bigger every time I shout 'CABLES!!!', just look at the before and after photos below and make up your own minds...

...I think the proof is pretty clear, listenening to BIG BLACK definitely makes you a bigger man and listening to BIG BLACK rarities makes you a MASSIVE hulk of a man so if you are a complete wiener you better download the two disc Way Hap Ultimate Rarities set below and make yourself big and strong like me! They are full to the flippin' brim with demos, live stuff, rare compilation songs and even some pre-BIG BLACK Stations songs! I've used massmirror instead of sharebee this time round cause I'm impatient, if you find that it sucks ass tell me in the comments and I'll re-upload them.

Jonathan Richman - Jonathan Goes Funky demo tape

To say that I am a big Jonathan Richman fan is like saying that Steve Irwin liked animals, crikey mate, I just love Jojo! Some people like his stuff with The Modern Lovers but don't like his later silly songs, some people like the new stuff but don't like the silly songs, some people like the silly songs but not the rest, some people are complete idiots and claim to like the first 'The Modern Lovers' album but say "his other stuff isn't very good" (if you are one of those bloody 'hip indie' people please reverse out the way you came in). I am of the belief that everything Richman has put out (and I have it all) has been pure gold, the guy is a machine, he just can't make a bad song, I bet when he farts in public people spontaneously dance uncontrollably. I don't need to sell Richman to you, you are already here, bless you my children.

I've seen him live twice in the last few years, the first time at the Jazz Cafe, London (I have a recording of this which I'll upload one day) he was on fire, I almost danced and for me that is unheard of; the second time, in Cambridge, he was great too, that's me with him up the top. We came out of the venue and he was strolling across the car park with his guitar in hand on his way to bed at the Travelodge, you can see how excited I was to meet him and you can't deny that he looks pretty happy to see me too. This tour I had a ticket but lost my job and couldn't afford the train fare to london so I missed out. :-(

Now for the download, it's entitled "Jonathan Goes Funky" and is a demo tape from the early 80's, this is rare, by crikey it's rare! it's so rare that if you search for it in Google you'll get next to nothing, just one mention of it, fair dinkum.

1. Underneath
2. My Name is Jonathan
3. The Neighbors
4. Better
5. Don't Change for Me
6. Somebody to Hold Me

Red House Painters Early Demos - download

Do you like Red House Painters / Mark Kozelek? Do you like early demos? Do you like downloads? If you answered yes to those 3 questions then you are gonna be chuffed cause I've uploaded the original demo's that Mark sent to 4AD Records and music journalists back in 1991 / 1992. From 4ad.com: "Imagine what it was like for 4AD chief Ivo Watts-Russell the first time he listened to the Red House Painters' demo tapes. Demos, by nature, are rudimentary things, often suggesting promise but rarely realising it. Most demos are excruciatingly bad - the kind of unlistenable things you play for bemused friends so they, too, can wonder why the potential musician ever bothered in the first place. Red House Painters were luckier. The elusive chemistry was there from the first note."

Red House Painters have a special place in my heart, when depression first took hold on me and wouldn't let go back in 2001 I was into them in a big way, one Saturday after work I was walking down the pavement on a main road listening to Drop and for the first time in my life I wanted to kill myself, as Mark sang I got lower and lower...

So much that i can't say to you

My voice shakes from the hurt that i hide

Ashamed of my existence

And of my petty often wounded pride

I'd like to come home to see you

And to catch your sickness by the bedside

But then you'd know how much i really need you

...I stood in Tesco in a daze for ages with no idea what was going on. I left the shop and on the opposite side of the same road the speeding cars called to me again, and again and again and I was ready to jump when a little kid about 2 or 3 years old with his family looked up at me, smiled and said hello. I felt disgusting, what was I thinking? That kid saved my life and he will never know it. I quit my job on the Monday and the depression is still kicking my ass 6 years on. If you haven't heard Red House Painters before and want this kind of misery then I recommend you start with their self titled album with the rollercoaster on the cover or their 2 disc Retrospective. If you have heard them before and you love them then download these demos...
