Thurston on Pitchfork's "My Perfect 10"
Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore shares a Perfect 10 that he calls one of the coolest records he's ever heard

thanks for sharin

I would say this is more "Sonic 2024" than "Thurston News". But hey, it's all to the good. :)

oops, wrong thread

btw, did you guys read Thurston's "Sonic Life" book? I am in it now and it's indeed entertaining. I like how he's focus on the bands he loved when he was young, and giving deep impressions about gigs he attended, people he met, etc.

i really loved it. https://rxttbooks.blogspot.com/2024/...became-my.html

Thanks Rob! I'mma read through your review right away.

Thanks for reminding me i need to pick up a copy

watch out though: he uses the word 'radical' quite a bit in there

Thanks Slavo, forewarned is forearmed.

Radical mag Forbes article in which T-dog endorses jazz and the Grateful Dead (agreed)

Very cool, thank you. I'm not a Grateful Dead fan (I apologize, Lee ;)), but this is the most eloquent and focused Thurston I've read in some time.

(Now, that B.E. thing... Oy. That's for the flame war over pop music at the "Best of 2024" thread, I guess.)

xD xD xD

There is an article about Mark Chapman on Quietus featuring oo'er T on anecdotal form like.

Thurston playing with (i.e.supporting) The Ex, 3rd Oct, Cafe Oto, London

MICHAEL Chapman, please. Mark Chapman is the fucker who killed John Lennon.

Oh Aye. Fucker or as I like to call him, nice feller who put the world out of its misery.
