JANDEK – SOMEBODY IN THE SNOW CORNER OF THE STREET Well I read about your bargain basement At the corner of the street And about the stranger’s fawning At the sidewalk and your feet While running, try and meet me At the edge of the dawn And when you saw the sun come rollin’ Across the meadow lawn You saw the sun come rolling Across the meadow lawn And you were runnin’, Tried to meet me, At the edge of the dawn And about the strangers fawning At the sidewalk and your feet Well I read about your bargain basement At the corner of the street REMIND YOU I got fifteen jokers hot as lead I got a Kodak camera in my head I’ve been on about it Been on if he can hear I ain’t got no honey Aw Jesus, I never will I got a rightaway down a one-way street [Jandek doubles his voice in this one, so the following lines are simultaneous] I blink the blinker to the beat I got you You got all the money Why you want me too? I told you why I’d do what you want me to do Where you’ll put your love behind Never been All I got so far is shoes They took me where I been You’re the dream I been dreamin’ And are you serious when you say my name? So you (suck on?), no I ain’t playin’ So I’ll say goodbye Hope you knew I came Just to remind you [2x] You’re the cast of my eye Yes, you’re the catch of the season -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup Delivered-To: jandek@zappa.cs.northwestern.edu Received: (qmail 15532 invoked from network); 5 May 2003 21:39:22 -0000 Received: from mail1.cs.nwu.edu (HELO mail1.cs.northwestern.edu) (129.105.100.4) by zappa.cs.nwu.edu with SMTP; 5 May 2003 21:39:22 -0000 Received: from dylan.cs.northwestern.edu ([129.105.100.5]) by mail1.cs.northwestern.edu with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.0.2195.5329); Mon, 5 May 2003 16:39:11 -0500 Received: (from tisue@localhost) by dylan.cs.northwestern.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) id h45LdAE29716 for jandek@cs.northwestern.edu; Mon, 5 May 2003 16:39:10 -0500 Received: (qmail 15513 invoked from network); 5 May 2003 21:37:38 -0000 Received: from mail1.cs.nwu.edu (HELO mail1.cs.northwestern.edu) (129.105.100.4) by zappa.cs.nwu.edu with SMTP; 5 May 2003 21:37:38 -0000 Received: from hotmail.com ([64.4.27.55] RDNS failed) by mail1.cs.northwestern.edu with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.0.2195.5329); Mon, 5 May 2003 16:37:32 -0500 Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Mon, 5 May 2003 14:37:32 -0700 Received: from 62.254.166.19 by by8fd.bay8.hotmail.msn.com with HTTP; Mon, 05 May 2003 21:37:31 GMT X-Originating-IP: [62.254.166.19] X-Originating-Email: [paulgcondon@hotmail.com] From: "Paul Condon" To: jandek@cs.northwestern.edu Subject: One Foot/Footsteps/Fahey Date: Mon, 05 May 2003 21:37:31 +0000 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Message-ID: X-OriginalArrivalTime: 05 May 2003 21:37:32.0223 (UTC) FILETIME=[88EEBCF0:01C3134E] Sender: owner-jandek@cs.northwestern.edu Precedence: bulk "One Foot in the North" is currently listed on Aquarius records site, with an entertaining review and MPEGs of Yellow Pages & Dreaming Man. >The voice seems to be Eddie's, so perhaps Jandek found out only later >that it was a Frank Zappa reference, and was unhappy with having that > >on>the LP. That's what I thought, but it could indeed be accidental too. Impossible to tell whether the cd versions are supposed to be definitive, improved versions, or whether Jandek's aesthetic looseness extends to not worrying to such small differences. >Maybe someday Revenant with do a box like this with Corwood - can you > >imagine how cool that could be?

I tried to post the following Fahey-related comment recently, but I don't think it got through: I recently bought his Guitar Vol. 4: The Great San Bernardino Birthday Party, and the track Guitar Excursions Into the Unknown (recorded 1963) is the closest thing I've heard to Jandek's acoustic style - it's almost as if Fahey picked up Jandek's detuned guitar and started fingerpicking on it. Here's what Fahey said about it in 1968: "I agree it's one of my best pieces. I was afraid to issue it for a few years thinking that no one would be able to like it and I was not sure of my own feelings towards it were until Al Wilson virtually forced me to issue it. I can now listen to it without fear that I will freak out but it took a long time." And in 1970: "God knows what key or tuning it's in (if any of you can figure it out please let me know." (I've read elsewhere that it's in D modal). Fahey's use of his Blind Joe Death alterego is arguably an interesting precedent to Jandek's mysterious-identity deal... I met Fahey a few years ago when he played in Dublin, on what I think was his last tour. I shook hands with him but when I asked him about his interest in noise he ignored me and continued writing on an A4 pad. At the time, I didn't know about his personal problems and the extremely fraught nature of the tour (which was abandoned a couple of days later), nor about his reticence in such situations. In retrospect I feel lucky to have gotten a handshake.

Note the "Bowery / Beacon Hill" trope which is also used in "Quinn Boys" and "Quinn Boys II". They're both old-time skid rows (in New York and Seattle)... anyone know if always pairing them like that might come from a specific source? It sounds repeated from something. "Remind You" is a great track -- check it out! I never particularly noticed it before. When Jandek says "are you serious when you say my name" it sounds like Dylan to me (mentally I follow it with Dylan's "Honey I can't believe that you're for real" from "On the Road"). I never much noticed this whole album, actually, except for "Om" which sticks out because it's so out of character, and "Bring It In a Manger", which... well, I don't know what to say about it. It's singular. If someone invents a new form of Christianity based on it, sign me up. "Come Through With a Smile" is outstanding, too: it's the track where the replacement Nancy makes the best case for herself. And I like the way the drums underscore the lead guitar. At the beginning of the album when Jandek (Eddie?) says "All right, all right.... alllll right... It's all riiiiight.... ": it is. It is completely all right. How could it be any better?

This may occasionally be the case, (and more than likely is on most of side 2 of Sopmebody in the Snow, the first 2 tracks on On the Way, and maybe even on The Rocks Crumble, side 1 of Foreign Keys, and One Foot in the North). But the more standard guitar playing is definitely not Jandek. It's hard to tell with the drums. The dynamics of some of the ensemble recordings betray their nature as live band recordings rather than parts overdubbed by an individual - a good example of this is the Chair... version of European Jewel. On the other hand, the first 2 tracks on On the Way sound sloppily overdubbed by Jandek. >4. “Jandek” is not intended to be a personal moniker, but the name of a >group project. I still call the main protagonist Jandek. Most of the albums are completely solo works, and all feature this central individual to the point where, IMO, if not singing on a particular track, he plays an instrument (e.g. guitar on I Passed By the Building, drums on I'll Sit Alone...). Open to debate, but that's my considered opinion. As somebody said "Jandek is so damn easy to type". Simplest and most straightforward way to refer to the guy. If this is a horriffic distortion of the artist's original intention, it serves him right for releasing a string solo recordings with a picture of the same individual repeatedly appearing on the covers! Compromise version: Jandek is Jandek, but also fronts the band Jandek (like Dio!). >5.

Don't know about the "solely", didn't somebody report a phone conversation with a Corwood representative that didn't sound like the main voice on the records? "Sterling Smith" doesn't personally interest me much anymore. There's enough distance put between Smith and Jandek for me to consider that the former is none of my business as a Jandek fan. >6.

I think The Rocks Crumble, Interstellar Discussion, were both overdubs. Harder to tell on Telegraph Melts and Modern Dances, but i'm leaning towards live.

Despite claims to the contrary, the man we call > Jandek, or the typical male singer, performed most or all > of the instruments heard in his music himself, using > over-dubs. I think most of the band recordings are live group performances, and in general Jandek's reputation as a "over-dubbing wizard" is greatly exaggerated. The first clue is the song "A dozen Drops." When the song is used to introduce a female singer the title is "Nancy Sings." Likewise, when the song is used to introduce a drummer it's titled "John Plays Drums." To say the the guitarist/singer Jandek overdubbed the drums would be to say that Jandek switched from being truthful & biographical in his song titling to being ironic and deceptive. It doesn't make sense to me. His song titles are sometimes vague, sometimes funny, but never deceptive. I think that if we can assume that if Jandek is not singing "Nancy Sings" in a fake falsetto then we should also assume that John plays drums on most/all Jandek recordings. The early solo and band recordings all champion improvisation and the spirit of the 1st take. Some tracks on the "You Walk Alone" LP sound like they benefitted from a little rehearsal, but not a lot. Earlier songs do sound like the other musicians didn't know what Jandek was playing at the time, or mabye couldn't hear him very well, but they just sound loose to me, not overdubbed. I can't picture Jandek re-recording overdub after overdub, trying to get the out-of tune guitar to sound 'just right.' Also, vocal tracks always play off of the instrumental tracks in unique ways. The guitarist often takes cues from the vocalist, following & adjusting in dynamics & intensity, and the vocalist often verbally addresses another musician by name in a recording (Taks it Eddie!) None of the vocals sound like they were recorded at a later time. If there are any overdubs in Jandek recordings, I would guess that Chair's "European Jewel" would be a contender. However, I bet it was just one or two guitar tracks added to the original recording of Jandek & John playing together. I don't think it was recorded one instrument at a time. ===== http://www.geocities.com/bradleybee http://www.mp3.com/bohdi __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!

for the hell of it here's a couple of jandek songs that bring to my mind other songs and or musicians.  i'm not saying that these are intentional or deliberate references, most likely they are not, just things i hear that remind me of something else.

the way the word "well" is sung on your other man always reminds me of sister morphine by the stones and the verse that starts "well it only goes to show"

the lyric "before you grew so old" in when the telephone melts reminds me of a van morrison lyric on astral weeks can't remember which song where he sings "i will never grow so old again"

and finally on i know the times the lyric "listen to the other side of life" reminds me of the fred neil song the other side of this life which was covered by a bunch of different bands in the 60's.

as a side note i write for a british website called tangents http://www.tangents.co.uk/  i turned the editor on to jandek a while back and have mentioned his music in passing in an article or two.  jandek is currently  pictured on the intro page for the site.

Read the excerpt from Chusid on Seth's site. Also, as Jandek mentions "Whole Sides" of overdubbed material... we can assume he is talking about Rocks Crumble and Interstellar Discussion. This may sound like another one of my stabs in the dark, but hear me out. The letter to Chusid with that info was written at the time of Chair Beside a Window, ie 1982. So he mentions having recorded those "whole sides" two years before any more electric material came out. He must be referring to 0746 and 0747 because it is painfully clear based on the nature of his music that he releases everything he records, without cutting out a thing. Because in the letter he doesn't mention Nancy's contributions to later albums like Telegraph Melts and Modern Dances, we can assume he had not recorded them yet (And given the open and excited tone of the letter, he wouldn't have withheld any info about Nancy if there was any more). This leaves the two afrormentioned electric albums (Interstellar and Rocks) as the only ones he could have been referring to in 1982, and futher proving that those two albums were all overdubbed. In addition, it proves my previous spectulation that the albums were not recorded in the same years as their releases, perhaps even much earlier. All this is info straight from the horse's mouth, not spectulations based on unclear lyrics or album covers. D.M. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster.

I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but I'm just entertaining the thought that on some releases after Rocks/Interstellar there might have been a recording engineer of some sort at the sessions, or that sometime in Jandek's career enough money was saved up for studio time. Mabye not, but consider that recording a band while playing in that band at the same time is difficult :) There's a possibility that there was at least somebody else watching the levels on the 4-track while the soloist or group was playing. ===== http://www.geocities.com/bradleybee http://www.mp3.com/bohdi __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

(I >haven't seen it in any online retailers' catalogs yet.) great, I've been looking forward to getting that on cd. One of my favourite albums. One Foot in the North was the last old one I hadn't heard, and I find it to be much better than I expected. Similar in style to The Rocks Crumble which I also think is generally underrated. I noticed that, as well as the cover's similarity to that of Later On, most of the tracks on OFITN feature vocals panned hard left, guitars panned hard right - as far as I can recall, Later On is the only other album where ths is the case. Alehouse Blues is obviously a precursor to Cellar on Lost Cause. On the former, it sounds like the singer's getting drunk and recalling the good times - by Cellar, it sounds like the effects of the drink have worn off and the emptiness and loneliness have set in. This reminds me of the relationship between the song Telegraph Melts and When the Telephone Melts. The first version is like a Dear John (Dear Jandek???) letter from nancy, where she asserts her independence, to Jandek's utter surprise and incomprehension. The reworked version sees an abandoned Jandek poring over her statement, obsessing about it in an attempt to work out what went wrong. Well, that's the impression of it anyway. In the case of that song, I wonder if it was a fictional lyric that ended up coming true, or if it documented the state of the relationship at the time... >Well, the first 2 tracks on The Living End feature the same instrumental >track with different vocals >overdubbed on top... -d Same riff, but different takes. The problem with Daniel Marks' theory that Jandek recorded a lot of the early albums years before their release is that it suggests that Jandek spent a number of years musically inactive, or at least held off releasing newer recordings until older ones had been released. Since European Jewel was revised several times, I think it's not too much of a stretch to suggest that maybe a lot of material was recorded more than once, and the best takes released. I don't agree that Jandek must have released everything - for all the sloppiness of the records, we never hear him completely fluffing a lyric, and though the songs are often on the verge of completely falling apart, they rarely do completely (though he might just wipe over failed takes...). He did tell Chusid that he planned to release everything he had done, but he could have recorded better versions later, or decided to go with more recent material. An interesting topic, but as is so often the case with Jandek, one could ponder it endlesly and remain none the wiser. Gaahhh. "It's a crazy melody, but you can sing it..."
