Jandek – "Denver Friday" (Corwood Industries – CORWOOD 0849) 2021


Jandek whips out the Bass again, as he and fellow torturers recreate that moment when country legend Denver, J, hit the side of a mountain, raining down debris on the Rocky mountain lowlands. slicing up some Hill Billies in the process.
This one reminds me somewhat of of that Father Yod ,Ya Ho Wha 13 stuff. Free Rock for Hippies high on God and Blue Sunshine cooked up in the farm duck pond.
If Sky Saxon was on this album It could have made it onto the Top 50 lost Psych freakout LP's of all time that you must hear before you die list, in Rolling Stone magazine......a magazine I have genuinely NEVER read, or even touched, in my lifetime so far.
Recorded at The Bug Theater in 2008,before Jandek's alleged death...for those who wish to know.
I think Sky Saxon was still alive then.So no excuses there.
Although,there have been sightings, as yet unconfirmed, of a pale Ginger ghost-like cowboy, dressed in black,in the company of a former member of the Seeds, and a Sasquatch munching down a turn of the century Quarter-Pounder, at a stall selling shards of wreckage from John Denver's possible suicide dive as a sideline.
The signed pieces apparently appear genuine......I know because Donald J.Trump has one.Displayed in an obscure part of his dirty Oval Orifice.  

Tracklist:

1-1 Painted Scenery 14:31
1-2 The Last Thing 11:06

An inspired take on 'The Death of John Denver.' There was a blinding hypocracy about a guy preaching 'bout saving the envionment while tooling around in his private jet. 'Smells 'pert near 'Merican to me.'

Donald does have a similar complexion underneath all that make-up...and the same ginger Hair/fluff.Probably from the dumber end of the Smith Klan.....he'd really love to be able to play Dueling Banjo's with Hunter Biden, but the Jandek gene forbade it. Most of Richard S Smith's output sounds too similar to Trump's own Brane malfunctioning to be listenable for too long in the Oval Orifice......so not a fan.....that's strictly a club of One

Do you still get cyber-hassled by that Rotund American bloke for posting Jandek downloads?

John denver was flying a Rutan Long-EZ. They're lightweight propeller planes.
I'd be more cynical towards politicians pushing global warming alarmism while attending WEF meetings in Davos.
