On this week's show:
New Rock Album: Manchester Orchestra, *Means Everything to Nothing* (2009)...this indie rocking band from Atlanta, Georgia is charming as fuck, whether they are blasting it out or pulling back slow and acoustic...they are strange, they are great musicians, and they are worth a listen by everyone...
Classic Rock Album: Opal, *Happy Nightmare Baby* (1987)...Opal was a Paisley Underground band featuring David Roback and Kendra Smith...this was their sole album, a dark, dirty, beautiful, lysergical treat...while touring to promote it, Kendra Smith quit Opal, and Hope Sandoval took her place as singer...the band renamed itself Mazzy Star (another Paisley Underground band featured on this show, back in Feb 2009)...Opal's album stands brightly as Mazzy Star, if a little more obscurely...
Storybook Time: Continuing Chapter Thirty-two of Breaking Open the Head: A Psychedelic Journey into the Heart of Contemporary Shamanism by Daniel Pinchbeck. . .
Readings from *Labyrinthine* fixtion & *Many Musics* poems...& this week's featured artist is Better Than Ezra, a New Orleans band with a luring '90s college rock band sound...it's been several weeks since this show was on the air, and SpiritPlants Radio had some rough days to pass through, but it's back on the air, and it is coming on strong with the summer taking over the Pacific Northwest...
Webcasting to the globe & beyond from the People's Republic of Portland, Oregon!
