July 27, 2011: Yesness

Yes' Relayer. Excellent artwork.

Yes: yes.  I think the music speaks for itself this week. I played Brian Eno's new album this week again and I will likely play more next week since my vinyl copy just arrived from Enoshop.

Neat little Robot News this week, another step.

Robots have mastered human techniques and move on to messianic feats

I thought I was going to play Souljazz Orchestra's Kapital in response to silly debt-ceiling drama. I thought better of it and remembered that the best response to this stuff is Nonsense. Accordingly I chose Grasshopper and Toad from also from Manifesto.

I just added this picture because it is brilliant. How "put on" do you reckon these faces are

?

I realize that Amy Winehouse passed recently. I actually picked up her first album but I couldn't bring myself to play it. The event did inspire me to start off with something from a  survivor.
