IMPLOSION is simply an hour of Nick playing the music that he loves (psychedelia, rock, folk, beat, jazz, soul, punk, and more), with a bit of chat thrown in for good measure. Nick says: "If I like it, then there have got to be a few other people who will too.

Album of the Week: Procol Harum's 'Shine On Brightly'

Mon, 04/25/2022 - 5:38pm | Pieter Pastoor

procol harum.jpg

This information comes from Wikipedia:

English rock band Procol Harum recorded Shine On Brightly in 1967 and 1968 in London, and released it on A&M in September 1968. Denny Cordell produced. The record clocks in at 39 minutes and 9 seconds. It's considered an early example of progressive rock, and usually gets classified in the genres of progressive, art, and/or psychedelic rock.

The album's single, "Quite Rightly So," failed to repeat the success of Procol Harum's first two singles ("A Whiter Shade of Pale" and "Homburg"), but the album was a commercial success in the United States, outperforming their first album. It didn't chart in the band's home country, but reached #26 in Canada.

Brenden Tull in the studio, on Listening Lyrics, April 22, 2022

Fri, 04/22/2022 - 5:10pm | Pieter Pastoor

IMG_9264.JPG

Brenden Tull/basil tell/Dunno is … an artist … simply because of his specific attention to beauty/each moment on the path to becoming a passive, Taoist non-action. He tastes life wide-eyed and … without a shell of hardness … and in his art, the person takes precedence over the product, the product is nearly extraneous -- something of his nature is carried over.

This week's Paul McCartney featured song will be "Ever Present Past" from his Memory Almost Full album. Brenden will play and re-invent the song.

The Folk Brothers for April 20, 2022: It's 420 folk!

Wed, 04/20/2022 - 11:10am | Peter Schiffman

ft.JPG

Not really folk. More old school rock 'n' roll and country. So this morning, we -- incorrectly pictured here -- ditched the TA fiddle and banjo crap and embraced the 420 stoner vibe, sans inhaling, of course. But we had the foresight to invite local man about town, tree comissioner and singer/songwriter Larry Guenther to join us live. And he graced us with his original, calendar-appropriate song "That's Why They Don't Call it Einstein, That's Why They Call It Dope."

Davisville, April 18, 2022: Still playing on the big screen, but not like they did

Mon, 04/18/2022 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

IMG_6463.JPG

Watching movies on the big screen was once a mainstream, shared cultural experience. Think of the crowds that turned out for the Harry Potter movies or Titanic. Those days are gone. So wrote New York Times columnist Ross Douthat last month, and today we ask longtime film reviewers Derrick Bang and Matias Bombal what they think about this idea. Is the change due only to competition from other media, or is something else at work? What does it matter, regardless? Derrick, an author and frequent guest on Davisville, writes for the Davis Enterprise and his blog, Derrick Bang on Film. Matias posts reviews at Matias Bombal’s Hollywood and on KAHI radio, and formerly managed the Crest Movie Theatre in downtown Sacramento.

Racquetbangers, live in the studio on Listening Lyrics, April 15, 2022

Fri, 04/15/2022 - 5:10pm | Pieter Pastoor

IMG_9244.JPG

Racquetbangers is a Davis-based indie rock duo comprised of Timur Katsnelson (piano/vocals) and Robert Polon (guitar). Seeking refuge from the cutthroat music scene in their hometown of Los Angeles, the boys moved north in fall 2017 and never looked back. They soon found themselves fully immersed in the rich Davis culture and began writing songs about their surroundings. Barely scraping by on a diet of Ali Baba, Vampire Weekend, and pucks, Racquetbangers finally caught their big break with the release of their first demo, "Annie Lin." Hopes of an international stadium headline tour were crushed with the untimely outbreak of COVID-19, but the boys are back and buzzing in early 2022.

During the interview, we will play their most popular releases to date, along with a special tribute song to the events in the Ukraine.

Wed, 04/13/2022 - 11:10am | Peter Schiffman

Unknown.jpeg

In the past few months, live music is a thing again as musicians are out touring like it is 2019! This morning, we played tracks from Lowell Levinger (aka Banana, formerly of the Youngbloods) and Tony Furtado, both of whom appeared in local venues this past weekend. And Tim O'Brien (pictured here with musical and life partner Jan Fabricius) -- who brings us the opening music for The Folk Brothers each week -- will appear at the Auburn State Theater on April 30. Also on today's show: new tracks from Lyle Lovett, Joan Shelley, Pauline Scanline, Sam Shackleton, and more!
