Singleversity #9

Audiversity’s weekly column on random music in a predetermined number of words between 1 & 150. This week's randomly generated number: 40.

(Ed. - Originally this was called Threeversity, but in the spirit of simplicity we've decided to retroactively relabel all of these posts. The content remains unchanged.)

MA:
(#40 of a random playlist generated from my ever-changing database of 12,500+ songs)



Spaceways Incorporated - Alice in My Fantasies/Cosmic Slop (Atavistic 2000)

Ken Vandermark + Hamid Drake + Nate McBrite + Funkadelic + Sun Ra = Thirteen Cosmic Standards by Sun Ra & Funkadelic. The most full-sounding trio you will ever hear jumps aboard the Mothership for one funky-ass trip to Saturn.

JR:



Its crazy the persistance of Swamp Thing throughout my childhood, comics and cartoons and those father/son trips to boggy Carolina swamps. Alligator Crystal Moth's Kerosene Hat rises spectral from dead water, rife with dense atmosphere and wailing guitar seance.

PM:
