I really enjoyed this conversation between Peter Broderick and Sam Amidon on the song “Wedding Dress” - it’s a series where Broderick talks to someone about a song that’s had many versions and goes through the history of them/the song. But I’m especially fond of this one because Sam’s version of “Wedding Dress” is on the last record I ever reviewed for Stylus, still one of my favourites, the one I picked as my top record of the decade when we all reconvened to do that. And here they go pretty deep on the making of All Is Well, in a way that only makes it even more wonderful to me. Also as a side note, Sam happens to confirm a long-held pet theory I have about his version of “Pretty Fair Damsel” from I See the Sign, another favourite of mine from him.

Ghost Train Orchestra & Kronos Quartet - Songs and Symphoniques: The Music of Moondog
On "Songs and Symphoniques: The Music of Moondog," Ghost Train Orchestra teams up with the trailblazing Kronos Quartet to celebrate and reimagine the music of Louis Hardin, aka Moondog, the ground-breaking composer and poet who lived on the streets of New York City in the 50s and 60s, and influenced the minimalists Philip Glass, Steve Reich and Terry Riley. A blind composer who moved from Kansas to New York City and built his own instruments and mythology, Moondog's story and music continue to be an inspiration to many. Along with guests Sam Amidon, Jarvis Cocker, Petra Haden, Karen Mantler, Marissa Nadler, Aoife O'Donovan, Rufus Wainwright and Joan Wasser, the two groups explore Moondog's sense of whimsy, wonder and adventure through a cross-section of songs and instrumentals for large ensemble, string ensemble, percussion and voice. The vinyl and CD packages include an essay by biographer Robert Scotto, Moondog's song lyrics, extensive in-studio photographs by Dan Efram, and an interview with Kronos Quartet founder David Harrington and Ghost Train Orchestra founder Brian Carpenter, mediated by music historian Irwin Chusid. Kronos Quartet David Harrington - violin John Sherba - violin Hank Dutt - viola Sunny Yang - cello Ghost Train Orchestra Brian Carpenter, trumpet, harmonica, vocals Andy Laster, alto saxophone, flute Dennis Lichtman, clarinet Matt Bauder, bass clarinet, tenor, baritone saxophones Sara Schoenbeck, bassoon Curtis Hasselbring, trombone, guitar Ron Caswell, tuba Brandon Seabrook, guitar Chris Lightcap, bass Rob Garcia, drums David Cossin, marimba, percussion Maxim Moston, violin Colin Stetson, bass saxophone Guests: Sam Amidon, Jarvis Cocker, Petra Haden, Karen Mantler, Marissa Nadler, Aoife O'Donovan, Rufus Wainwright, and Joan Wasser All new arrangements by Ghost Train Orchestra Dedicated to the memory of Hal Willner

for the song prompt! A, D(a comfort character or an oc or yours 💚), and P. (also because i feel empty handed without giving things in return i wanna give you 3 songs that make me think of you off your vibes: black dog by domini forster, bathed in sound by cosmo sheldrake, and atom 4 by sleeping at last)
A: an uplifting song Crane Your Neck by Lady Lamb, only the most feral kind of uplifting I can find
D: a song that reminds me of a fictional character Drinking Song by Haley Heynderickx. another favorite of mine.
P: a song that I’d recommend you based on your blog hmm... how about Wedding Dress by Sam Amidon? he does some cool, creative traditional folk covers.
and thank you for your sharing your songs! they are wonderful

For the ask game! 🔊 Asgore?
I wish I wish my baby was born
Sitting on her papa's knee
And if our girl was dead and gone
With the green green grass growing over my feet
I ain't a hound and I never will be
'Til the sweet apple grows on a sour apple tree
But still I hope the day will come
That you and I shall meet as one
send me a 🔊 and a character and ill say a song from outside their source media that reminds me of them somehow
