Friday Links
- Not that I'm contemplating doing this or anything, but this article, "How To Disappear in America Without A Trace" is rather interesting. No, it wasn't written by Thom Yorke.

- Rolling Stone has an extensive list of New Orleans' best music. Now if it only had MP3s or a podcast, it might be as good as this list.

- Commenters on my review of The National and CYHSY at the Bowery pointed out that I should have seen Nicole Atkins. Nicole will be headlining a Hurricane Katrina benefit at Rothko on Tuesday, September 27. This bill also includes OL favorites Other Passengers (see our earlier post about this show here). Check out Songs:Illinois for more on Nicole Atkins, including an MP3 of "Skywriters".

- NME and MTV both has stories about the new Flaming Lips album At War with the Mystics.

"#5 (Go Bang)"
"#7 (Recorded Live at the Kitchen, 1979)"
Not that it takes much, but the trailer for the upcoming Arthur Russell documentary got me onto an AR kick the other day, and I headed for Dinosaur L's 24-24 Music. 24-24 is thought by some to be the gem of Russell's dancier material, and it'll hopefully be reissued soon. The Francois K remix of its masterstroke "#5 (Go Bang)" kicks off 2004's The World of Arthur Russell compilation, but I actually prefer the 24-24 original (MP3). When I first heard 24-24, though, the standout for me was far more fleeting. The two-minute "#7 (Recorded Live at the Kitchen, 1979)" (MP3) is a tantalizingly short slice of a session I hope is sitting in full in a vault somewhere. Russell's cello anchors a percussive horn-guitar groove that quickly recalls (or, I should say, previews) !!! and others. And, like much of Russell's music, I love it not only for its sound but also for the era of NYC it instantly evokes.
