I remember an online station that I was doing a show on bitd used to throw these big turntable.fm parties with all the participating DJs and it would be played over the stream. The guy that ran it 'this is going to be the FUTURE of radio!' and then it quickly fizzled out.

"“One of the most important female bands in American rock has been buried without a trace. And that is Fanny. They were one of the finest fucking rock bands of their time, in about 1973. They were extraordinary: They wrote everything, they played like motherfuckers, they were just colossal and wonderful, and nobody’s ever mentioned them. They’re as important as anybody else who’s ever been, ever; it just wasn’t their time. Revivify Fanny. And I will feel that my work is done.”

@6:12 Linda Lee: the said Ace Of Cups live recording retrospective "It's Bad for You But Buy It" is on Spotify, really worth checking. And yes, just like GeorgyGirl quoted the L7 doc, they were ahead of their time and behind the rent (I guess there was a song about the latter problem). Also there is contemporary video (from a 1968 tv performance): www.youtube.com...

Also,speaking of the previous set, the world of recording was never the same after Les Paul, overdubbing and recording at variable speeds (back when it was no simple task)

All sorted now - no Nico in the description :-)

@6:33 StringOFperils: I am a proud owner of a Pennies From Heaven 3-lp set (bought from Snooper's Paradise, Brighton for £3). But almost any of his series has good use of music, especially the Singing Detective. Also they are very disturbing at times, when considering he employed autobiographical elements in many of his works.

@6:40 Linda Lee: yes just like DJ GeorgyGirl said @6:41, it is a wonderful place, I have actually found more records from there than from the Brighton record shops at the time - and they were not too bad either; I found Pentangle & Damned original pressings for £9 (which is impossible nowadays) in 2013 from a record shop the name of which escapes me now (and as a bonus I spotted Nick Cave having a Saturday afternoon stroll)
