The other day I coincidentally recieved both the Corwood catalogue and my first Jandek CDs from Forced Exposure. I had asked whoever at Corwood if there was any new albums or reissues due "in the coming months" and it probably will suprise no-one that the reply was "Foreign Keys" & "Telegraph Melts". I was wondering what people think of the acapella stuff - I just got "Worthless Recluse" and think it's great, I find it really vivid and I think it maintains the intimacy and intensity of some of the other stuff I've heard. I'm especially impressed by the title track. I'm curious as to whether Jandek is a William Burroughs fan, due to some of the delivery and the talk of "control". The only thing I can think of that's remotely similar to this CD, apart from maybe WB is Mark E Smith's "Post Nearly Man" which is probably a rare example of sometone making even less concessions to the niceties of performance and presentation than Jandek. So how do long-time fans rate it? I'm also curious about which albums people rate highest... After nearly 2 months waiting to recieve a delayed Jandek order (due to e-mail problems), the day after the CDs arrived I fell ill with an absolutely horrific feverish stomach bug and found myself absolutely unable and unwilling to listen to them for several days (well, would you listen to "6&6" in that condition?"). Is this the kind of thing that habitually happens to Jandek fans? By the way I'm from Ireland and there seems to be a handful of interested souls lurking around... Oh yeah, I think I've worked out the guitar tuning fairly accurately if anyone wants to do a covers act...! Any news since the website was last updated? bye, Paul _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx Delivered-To: jandek@cs.northwestern.edu Received: (qmail 22532 invoked from network); 6 Mar 2002 15:14:22 -0000 Received: from web10803.mail.yahoo.com (216.136.130.245) by godzilla.cs.nwu.edu with SMTP; 6 Mar 2002 15:14:22 -0000 Message-ID: <20020306151422.79703.qmail@web10803.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [130.184.211.174] by web10803.mail.yahoo.com via HTTP; Wed, 06 Mar 2002 07:14:22 PST Date: Wed, 6 Mar 2002 07:14:22 -0800 (PST) From: Danen Subject: Reply to an Introduction To: jandek@cs.northwestern.edu In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-jandek@cs.northwestern.edu Precedence: bulk --- Paul Condon wrote: I had asked > whoever at Corwood if there was any new albums or > reissues due "in the > coming months" and it probably will suprise no-one > that the reply was > "Foreign Keys" & "Telegraph Melts". Good. May I ask Mr. Kasley to please remove the mp3's to a jandek album upon it's reissue? that, to me, would only seem fair. I mean, I know everybody on this list pretty well will buy the reissues even if they have the downloaded versions but it would be a shame for Jandek to lose a sale. put up a Metallica album in its place... > I was wondering what people think of the acapella > stuff - I just got > "Worthless Recluse" and think it's great, I find it > really vivid and I think > it maintains the intimacy and intensity of some of > the other stuff I've > heard. My opinion is that it's getting better, but it's still a curiosity...I don't know, I have to be honest and admit that I don't throw the stuff on for fun very often, but I appreciate it and i've already thrown some of the shorter pieces on comp cd's for people...got a really weird response from one guy...It's certainly unique, isn't it? > I'm also curious about which albums people rate > highest... my personal favorite is 'Blue Corpse' (everybody who's been on the list awhile can take a second to laugh now). since you don't have it, may I suggest you go to ian Kasley's web site and download it? As mentioned above, you can buy it (complete with AWESOME near-model looking passing by building Jandek album cover) when the Man gets around to releasing it...but it really is worth having NOW. Outside of that,there's a lot of grumbling. Some like the electric stuff and some don't. Some dig the early acoustic albums the best (*and yeah, they probably are) but I also would point out some later albums like 'New Town' and 'Gotta Get Away'and 'the beginning'. These aren't as consistent, imho, but they have some really great songs on them. I have yet to see anybody really embrace 'I Woke Up.' If you got it, you probably noticed a different singer. Strangely, www.allmusic.com, which has a nice if not always accurate review section of Jandek, likes this album a lot.i think it's fine but I would sure buy a lot of other stuff first. if you have the early stuff but not the later I'd start with the three I listed above and go from there. > After nearly 2 months waiting to recieve a delayed > Jandek order (due to > e-mail problems), Man, to hell with Forced Exposure. I ordered 2 Godz cd's from them in late December and just got them 2 weeks ago. the excuse was "we had to re-stock them." Well, that was the excuse after I wrote them after I hadn't recieved the cd's in 4 weeks. Then 3 weeks later I get "Oh, they're on the way now, thanks for waiting" and then a week later I get them. I would love to support FE more, becuase I dig what they do, but good lord that's ridiculous! If you want Jandek cd's, cut out the middleman and make use of your catalog. the day after the CDs arrived I > fell ill with an > absolutely horrific feverish stomach bug and found > myself absolutely unable > and unwilling to listen to them for several days > (well, would you listen to > "6&6" in that condition?"). I had Epstein/Barr virus last year and found that stuff oddly comforting. I accept that I have problems... welcome to the list. I've been here off and on for 3 years and we can be as quite as the alleged Mr. Smith but it's worth sticking around for the occasional stuff that get's started. Also, there's a lot of respect on this list, so if you've had problems with flames and stuff on other lists (as I have) you won't have that problem here. yours, Danen __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I actually really like the way it's quite varied. I didn't think there was a different singer, though I've heard this mentioned elsewhere - in fact it sounds to me that the vocals and the harmonica were recorded simultaneously, on the same track, as they don't ever overlap as far as I can remember, and surely the harmonica player is Jandek? Of course I'll have to take the word of the long-term disciples here. Anyway I reckon it's one of the more 'listenable' or 'enjoyable' ones I've heard, though I recognise these aren't the terms one would probably use to judge a Jandek album. >If you want Jandek cd's, cut out the middleman and >make use of your catalog. > Yeah, I'm going to be going for the 20 box... > By the way, I noticed that "White Box Requiem" is basically just a couple of "songs" divided up into several shorter tracks - is this approach used on any of the other albums?

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-jandek@cs.northwestern.edu Precedence: bulk A recent post made my mind snap slightly and got me thinking. This always leads to trouble. We're all referring to "him" as Jandek. We know other people have been on the recordings (Nancy Sings, etc.) Maybe Jandek isn't a "him", as in a personality but rather, an "it", in other words, just a project name. I have a project name that I call 'aliensporebomb' because it describes the music more effectively than under my own name. We also know that the first recording was released as "ready for the house" by "the units" but was changed when it was found that there was a rock band by name of "the units" (I wonder if the real "units" are upset that the guy who usurped their name has had more longevity than they had...unless they still exist of course). Obviously there's a "him" behind it but the label "Jandek" doesn't necessarily need to refer to a person. Thoughts? In a lot of ways the mystery of the who/what of Jandek is a lot more satisfying because it's been this self contained thing working on its own, not needing the music industry or seemingly anything else. An enigma self-supporting. And while groups that generate barrel-loads of cash dissappear for years at a time - Jandek seemingly endures. We should be reassured by this. It is as if it's not about the money (one online essay says that Smith indicated "I need to move these"), but rather propagation. for a while it was sort of a joke that ZZ Top made a new recording every 5 years because they would only work when they had to, or Pink Floyd who simply releases another 'greatest hits' package instead of enduring the expense and time of reactivating, or Kraftwerk who'd rather be bicycling in germany rather than work on music projects full time. Much higher profile, but also a completely different agenda. Jandek is oddly reassurring because his projects are the image of quasi-permanence in an industry that doesn't reward staying power. So one would wonder: of those who have heard Jandek records, who has become a musician? And who has released a recording of their original music with no industry support ala Jandek? I think the answer would be surprising. One can say whatever they want about the musicianship on these recordings but the fact that a totally unknown individual in Texas has created an ouevre that is known of worldwide with his bare hands with no airplay, no interviews, no touring, and no industry support is scarcely believable. And I believe a tip of the hat is due Mr. Smith or whoever is behind these recordings since it shows that you can do anything if you put your mind to it. -t -- Delivered-To: jandek@cs.northwestern.edu Received: (qmail 14876 invoked from network); 6 Mar 2002 20:55:41 -0000 Received: from exchange.ljx.com (HELO mail02.ljextra.com) (208.3.165.71) by godzilla.cs.nwu.edu with SMTP; 6 Mar 2002 20:55:41 -0000 Received: by ALM-MAIL-1 with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19) id ; Wed, 6 Mar 2002 15:55:14 -0500 Message-ID: <988631CF8A1FD511B5B40008C7F36CCD1BF65D@ALM-MAIL-1> From: Tim Kelly To: 'Todd Madson' , jandek@cs.northwestern.edu Subject: RE: A thought.....

I'm especially impressed by the title track. I first thought that the a-capella stuff would be less accessable. After finally hearing them, I found that without the strangely tuned guitar the songs actually sound a little more normal.

I used to see ads around the Houston area for tribute/cover theme-nights. The basic idea was that one band would play as Black Flag, another band as the Minutemen, another as the Sex Pistols, etc... I always wanted to go to one of these tribute nights and do a few songs in-between sets as Jandek :) Unfortunately I don't think anyone has organized one of those concerts in quite a few years. ===== http://www.geocities.com/bradleybee __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I second that. The unrequited love of "I Passed By the Building", the quiet indecision at life's crossroads in "Variant", the epic incoherence of "Only Lover", great stuff. It and the other albums I've heard that document Jandek's brush with conventionality ("You Walk Alone", Side 1 of "Lost Cause") are the ones which resonate most strongly for me. Heh, for some reason "When The Telegraph Melts" from "You Walk Alone" always calls to mind hot and desperate afternoons in Houston. For some reason it always invokes this image/feeling of being somewhere along the Highway 59 feeder road east of downtown, near Chinatown, around rush hour with the sun beginning to set. I can almost taste the dust and feel the oppressive heat. I have no idea why this image comes to mind. In fact, a lot of stuff from around that era brings to mind images of Houston for me... sometimes vague, blurry ones, (not unlike Jandek album covers) other times more vivid memories like the one mentioned above. > I had Epstein/Barr virus last year and found that > stuff oddly comforting.

So... no more mp3s for the time being. It may have to be permanent this time, unless someone with bandwidth to burn wants to donate some for them. (It was on an ADSL line with 256k upstream, which at least beat my own 128k upstream which it used to be served off of) Hell, I'd even be willing to co-locate one of my old Sparcs or something.

If you are sending an edit of a longer track - choose carefully. this is a non profit affair, and copyright remains with the artists. Very limited copies available for retail purposes to cover our costs, but a huge number distributed for promotion, all artists on the compilation recieve 1 free copy. all copies with handmade packaging etc. We're looking for field recordings, found recordings, spoken word, electro acoustic, noise etc. Booklet will contain contact addresses/blurb for all acts involved.

So far contributors have included KK Null, Rodelius, Silver Apples and many lesser known artists (and ones I can't think of) from Ireland, Japan, the US & elsewhere, and the likes of Pauline Oliveros, Keith Rowe, Guapo & Zu have agreed to contribute. Please bring this message to the attention of anyone you think might be interested. And, no, I wasn't planning to ask you-know-who for a contribution - I think it's probably somewhat unlikely...

Flow, ??? flow like their blood COMMENTS: 5 star Jandek. This album is probably as straightforward as his records get, sounding a little like the Grateful Dead, oddly enough. Bares basically no resemblence to what is now available on CD (but the ones that are still out of print are the good ones, IMO). Several songs use recycled lyrics; The Cat... uses For Today, Quinn Boys II uses Quinn Boys I (duh), and The Way That You Act is from Customary. When The Telephone Melts would later be semi-quoted in Think About Your Lady. There are moments where you can hear background chatter if you listen with headphones. I Know The Times is sung in the goofy "non-Jandek" voice that occasionally shows up. The "Fran Drescher" line seems wrong of course, but I've listened to it so many times and can't make a better interpretation (in the original lyric that line wasn't in it at all). Maybe someone else can?

Somo um grupo de DJs e estamos lançando este site em sua primeira versão após 3 meses de muito trabalho. Atualmente contamos com o apoio de 12 pessoas com um único objetivo em comum. Levar até você o melhor som eletrônico. Trabalhamos muito para tonar nossos ideais uma realidade. Para quem vê tudo pronto até parece que foi fácil, mas sem o compromisso e a dedicação seria quase impossível traduzir em bit o sonho que hoje está a sua frente. Este mesmo email que você está vendo agora, também é visto por 14 milhões de pessoas de todos os cantos. Número que só foi possíveil graças ao nosso intenso suor.

O compromisso com a música eletrônica a partir de hoje está selado num único lugar:

Lavender (instrumental) Time and Space He said 'show up wearing black or white' I looked at my clothes and I seen they's all black They carried my clothes in coffins You said 'yeah, put them in the closet' Ooh, time, oh, space He ??? (sounds like 'wand', pinned?) a silver ??? (sounds like 'clip') around my neck I looked around and thought 'oh landshakes' (eh?) They found all their oranges in Florida You said 'just put them in the closet' Ooh, time, oh, space He brought a lot of ??? (sounds like 'boneache') I brought pencils I hid behind an electric fence But he brought all the cherry ??? (sounds like 'fish') from Ireland? (or 'island') You said 'just put em, you know where, in the closet, that's where! In the closet!' Ooh, time, oh, space He said 'show up wearing black or white' I looked at my clothes, they're all black They carried all my clothes in coffins You just said 'put it in the closet' Ooh, time, oh, space The Cat That Walked From Shelbyville For today I'll smoke a cigar For today I'll play your guitar For today I'll be real nice For today I'll cut you thrice For today I'll cup your eyes For today make no disguise There's a blanket for your doctor There's a full-fledged man o' war There's ink spots on your jersey Scuff marks on the floor For today smoked a cigar For today you felt real cool For today you wore a blue shirt For today you wore some old brown shoes Quinn Boys II Did you ever go down to see the Quinn Boys? When I walked outta there I went 'aaaaaw!' Meet you in the bowery Goodbye Beacon Hill Hello misfortune, I've got time to kill Time to kill, I've got time to kill Spent all of my days roaming all ways Deliver me and see the sun See the moon in dark June Kiss the sand and ocean salt Take my brother by the hand It's you, and I demand The Way That You Act As a matter of fact It's the way that you act As a matter of where It's customary It was real high I got it all in the eye Friend Dusty she told me She wanted to hold me I left myself It's all on a shelf The words that I've spoken Each ones an ??? (sounds like 'I choke it') I violate, because I wanna be out-ah (x7) I Know the Times Ohhhh aaaaaahhh... I know the times You and I spent together Always meant to be The voices outside that were so pained And meant for us to hear But it's two hours worth, worth your everlasting moments to be I listen to the other side of life Listen, don't turn back the tide of life If I should go and try to find The thing that's on my mind Each and every day I dream and dream In which I don't return But I can never feel a threat No, never feel a threat of losing anything I did for free So listen to the other side of life Listen, don't turn back the tide of life When the Telephone Melts When the telephone melts And it's still ringing your name When your shoes got holes in them And the sidewalk's not the same And you're falling down Then you can think about your mother You can think about your friends But you can't blame me for not being around You know I told you long ago Before you grew so old That I wasn't meant for claws falling on my face I see you knew it was a jungle I was a man, had a place to go If you can't come with me then I just don't know But I've thought about your humour When you laughed in my face You know I didn't mind When you stood on my head And then I turned the tables around I thought it was just another day I thought you saw it my way But to my surprise There's a difference in your eyes I find it hard to find you Say you want an ashtray Say you think you found a way Well, you can joke about me baby You can say my name in vain War Dance Going to the warpath I swear it must be pie in the end Ridin' through a warpath Move up the warpath Dance up the path Run around the red fire Thump - thump - thump Wardance all night long (x3) ??? We'll bring our path back home Blowing like they're blind At the pierce of a spear (x2) Love Jamie
