Listening to a lot of Calexico lately, especially their old stuff. If you want some bad ass spaghetti, watch/listen to the video. I LOVE this song. |

Oh yeah. Thats so cool to know another Calexico fan here on these boards, Ralf! Black Light is such an amazing album from start to finish. It is, in my opinion, one of the best albums ever made. I did get to see them do Glowing Heart live a couple times (they used to open with it a lot back in the day). I remember they opened with that song at the El Rey in hollywood once, and it was quite literally one of the best live musical moments in my life. I love that song so much! I discovered them kind of on accident in 1998 and I immediately knew this band was special. I've seen them live about 15 times and have all of their albums, including their first 7inch release with The Ride part 1 on it. Their tour albums are also extremely awesome. But the last couple of albums sort of lost me, they went a little more mainstream in their sound. But their old stuff is perfect. I'm listening to their first album Spoke right now. So excellent...

Another Calexico fan here! Actually a few days ago I thought: "I haven't listened to Black Light in a long time. I should put it on this evening." But then I forgot, so thanks for the unintentional reminder! Trivia-questsion: Which surfband did Convertino play in? —Los Apollos - cinematic surf music trio (Berlin) |

He was an Insect Surfer for a while! How cool is that!?!?! Last month, Calexico and The Sonics played in Spain. John Convertino and Dusty Watson playing on the same stage! My two favorite drummers! |

Jim Thomas delivers an academic,erudite,and very didactic lecture on the nature of "surf music" recorded at the Exploratorium in San Francisco,ca on 19/25/97... Picked it up at a Mermen show some time ago. Pretty interesting stuff. |

Another big Calexico fan here. John Convertino is really one of the best drummers in the world. But all Giant Sand spin offs are truly great: Band of Blacky Ranchette's 'Still lookin good to me' is excellent album that has almost the same quality as Calexcio. But my favorite Giant Sand / Calexico related band has to be Friends of Dean Martinez. The perfect soundtrack for long summer evening drives in the deserts... It takes me right back to my favorite USA trips —www.alohasluts.com Last edited: Sep 26, 2014 02:59:35 |

Calexico fan here too... I realize I've missed a few of their releases. Now where's my credit card? —Old punks never die... They just become surf rockers. |

I've been listening to a lot of great new music lately. So I decided to get nostalgic with some recent purchases. Three are from a nearby used record store, and I got one at the last Ventures Fan Fest. Yes, that's Annette sitting on a stool and holding Duane Eddy's Gretsch. —This is Noel. Reverb's at maximum an' I'm givin' 'er all she's got. Last edited: Oct 30, 2014 17:22:44 |
