By nyctaper

This was our third trip to the Sunday Ramble with David and Paul and it was just as fun as the two previous broadcasts. The guys played some of our favorite recordings (the Mountain Goats, Ryley Walker, Luna, Wussy, Steve Gunn, Disappears, Decemberists and Wilco) and let us talk about the site and so many other things. Take a listen! And remember to follow Sunday Ramble on Mixcloud for future broadcasts.

Chris Forsyth & The Solar Motel Band: June 11, 2015 McCarren Park (Northside Festival)

July 23, 2015

Last month, we were pleasantly surprised by the addition of Chris Forsyth & The Solar Motel Band to the Northside Festival‘s premier event: Luna’s first NYC show in a decade. Our love for the Moteliers is no secret by now and their late breaking appearance in McCarren Park gave us the chance to soak in some sun and suds with our favorite Philadelphians. Though all the tunes here will be familiar if you’ve been following along this year, the latter three-fourths of the set—”The Rarity of Experience, Parts 1-2,” “High Castle Rock,” and “Harmonious Dance”—is all new material that will appear on the next Solar Motel record due out on No Quarter in 2016.

NYCTaper recorded this set in the same manner as Luna’s set from the same day. There are a couple spots of wind, but none mar the recording and the sound is excellent. Enjoy!

Forsyth also has an upcoming collaboration with Koen Holtkamp of Mountains called The Island and due out on Trouble in Mind this fall.

Joe Russo’s Almost Dead: June 5, 2015 Mountain Jam – Flac/MP3/Streaming

June 6, 2015

By nyctaper

[photo by Erin]

At this point, it is apparent that Joe Russo’s Almost Dead has achieved its mission of providing a fresh approach to the task of covering Grateful Dead songs. And at a Festival that has thrived on ability to provide a reliable recreation of the classic rock genre, JRAD were an easy stand-in for the greatest improvisational rock band of its era. The Grateful Dead made a one stab at the massive task of performing the band’s ultimate rock opus “Terrapin Station” in its entirety, but the performance failed to capture the majesty of the suite that owns the entire second site of the Terrapin Station album. “Terrapin” is perhaps the Grateful Dead’s crowning achievement in musical composition, but the complexity of the last half of the suite was not a task that the band had the fortitude to undertake at a live show and so it was only the first two sections that were performed consistently since its 1977 debut.

JRAD opened their set at Mountain Jam in the pouring rain with a jam that seamlessly merged with “Lady With A Fan”, the opening section of the Terrapin suite. When the band concluded the first section of the main theme and proceeded to the “Terrapin Transit” portion, it was a moment to smile. JRAD consistently takes this music to places where the original band never trod, and this was just another example — and the fun had just begun. Lead by the stunning keyboard work of Marco Benevento, JRAD took each section of the suite and transformed them into complete songs of their own. It was a breathtaking thirty-two minutes and this is a recording I’ve already sampled thoroughly four times and undoubtedly will experience many more times. The balance of this set consisted of meaty and committed versions of three more songs but the take away from this short JRAD experience was undoubtedly the complete Terrapin suite.

I recorded this set with the Neumann large diaphragm cardioids in a very advantageous location up the hill in front of the soundboard area. Considering the elements at the time of this performance, overall this is an outstanding recording. Enjoy!

Our soundboard/audience matrix recording of JRAD at the Capitol Theatre is still available here.

moe.: May 31, 2015 Cutting Room – Flac/MP3/Streaming

June 1, 2015

By nyctaper

[still from this video]

Its a nice little bit of synchronicity that today June 2 marks the 20th anniversary since the first time I saw moe. live. I attended that show at the late lamented Brownies on Avenue A after reading about the band in the print edition of the Village Voice. At that point, moe. was a new-ish band from Upstate that had just started to get some attention outside of their home region. By the end of the 1995, the band would never look back and clubs the size of Brownies were soon a thing of the past. But every once in a while, moe. returns to their roots and on Sunday night they played a semi-surprise show at the 200-capacity venue The Cutting Room on East 32nd Street.

The size of the venue meant that we were happy to run into a lot of old friends and that gave this show a nice intimate feel. The band seemed to recognize that and opened with several of their older numbers, including a monster “Timmy Tucker” — a song also played at Brownies two decades ago. The second set stepped into the present day, as the band proved that the potential that they showed all those years ago has become fully realized. This is a performing unit that has such an intuitive ability to read and react to each other so well that the transitions in the improv sections are stunningly tight. This set contained mostly instrumental passages built around the song “Kids”, which began and ended the set. In between we got a nice oldie in “Brent Black”, a powerful drum interlude, and two late-era instrumental numbers. We’ll see moe. again on a big stage at Mountain Jam this coming weekend, but for this one night it was fun to take a trip back to the old intimate venue shows.

I recorded this show from our little makeshift taper’s section in the middle of the floor about 20 feet from the stage. I utilized the Grace V3 in front of the Schoeps cards to add a little warmth and presence to what was essentially an “upfront” recording. Other than some fairly persistent crowd chatter (louder in the first set), the overall quality of this recording is quite outstanding. Enjoy!
