LETS GOOOOOOOOO

I'm ready to listen to outsider music (indoors)

god aren't we all

i guess that listening to insider music outdoors would just be a music festival

When i first heard you were doing this theme i heard the Space Lady in my head singing born to be wild

its such a classic slop song i dont know how you could not

Awesome start this show is going to be 🔥

yo! thanks jerry!

Thanks for the education

Cool theme for today and a nice transition from Dan’s theme. When I first moved to SF Space Lady was doing street performances now and then, as well as Michael Mosely and I just felt so instantly at home.

absolutely! and this is an invitation for anyone in the chat to bring up any additional info they have on artists i end up playing that i might not have offered due to time constraints and like... mystery... just because a lot of these artists dont have super public lives

oh wow @dsm i didnt even make the connection. queen of san fran!

Yeeeeo PAX! Berry, berry excited for this.🍓

YEAUX JIMBEAUX

MAIDEN! UP THE IRONS!! GOAT FINGERS HIGH!

YYYYEAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

you are dj pax. you are totally awesome to the max. you are on the wrprb radio station. they really whip a llama's a.. rock over Princeton rock over Chicago. wheaties the breakfast of champions.

you are brian! thank you brian!!!!

How could I have not known this genre of music? More sophisticated it seems, that outsider art. More advanced I should say.

very much so! a big misconception about outsider music is that its a non-art... trying to reverse that right now!

Wow! Wesley Willis and “Broadcast News” movie reference back to back!

Might Moondog qualify? Untrained I believe.

Never thought I’d hear a Moondog track as backing for a slick Lexus car ad. Early 2000’s.

i'd put Hasil Adkins in there too maybe

I went to Sailing Quallege. And I was an extra in that movie Quall of

duty

lmaoo @ meatball and spaghetti

My mama makes spaghetti in the morning... BREAD HARRITY RULES!

Over the winter / spring I binged the entire Tim & Eric series for the 5th time or so. Time to start over again...

A++ playlist images to go with each song.

Birds Lament was in Lexus tv ad.

sorry for talking for 10 minutes straight im just really excited lol

and @brian thats crazy!!!

also @dan yes moondog does qualify! coming up next!

Love the talking! Discussion about music, art, themes etc always appreciated!

noted!

Tim & Eric scratch all my comedy itches in just the right way. and filming quality

on the tim & eric tangent, you seen I Think You Should Leave? i keep trying to pitch it to everyone and only like a quarter of people i bring it up to have seen it

Many thanks for moondog track. He makes an appearance in either the Bob Dylan Scorsese doc, or Inside Llewelyn Davis. Moondog impersonator I should say.

I almost consider Vic Chestnutt in this genre. I thought so, both times I saw him live. He opened for Bob Mould (solo) in Chicago.

Pax, a friend built this ITYSL site I bet you can make good use of...

Love it Pax. Love Tim Robinson.

oh my god jon thats so good

Did I hear these same kids do Band On The Run, not too long ago? Had to be. Love it.

very well could have been! a cover of that song's on this record

Yes Dan

Yes! Knocked me out! Just the right amount of accompaniment too. Is London Calling on it? I’d love to hear that!

tracklisting: https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/the_langley_schools_music_project/innocence_and_despair/

From the 70s I think. BC in Canada music teacher?

sorry for the cursed tiny tim vibes everyone i had to do it

A vocal version of Eno with Portsmouth Sinfonia.

yup brian!

WPRB turned me onto it 15-20 yrs ago

He’s amazing, a miracle that he ever saw the light of TV!

Tiny does The Clash! Could have sold a million.

Ok, sold 27.

Original Gray Gardens doc, plenty of outsider vocals in it. A must see!

Tiny Tim and Leon Redbone, musical archeologists. John Fahey too.

John Jacob Niles mentioned in No Direction Home Dylan Scorsese docu. Folk outsider maybe. Really haunting sound

The Langley kids recording has a great haunting in a beautiful way sound. The reverb, the acoustic gtr, mallet percussion melody

David Liebe Hart more Tim & Eric love!

yes!

this is a great cover

right! so dreamy :'(

Now I wonder if NYC Street performer (Married to the mob) Mr. Spoons ever recorded!

Great show!

thank you!

Love Gary. He is just right. Great show Pax.

Putting off my bike ride to hear all of this. Terrific choices all!

Mr. Spoons is on TY!

This show rules.

glad everyone enjoyed! prob gonna have to cut this one short unfortunately, i think we're gonna run out of time

i chopped this one myself to make sure it was clean and everything
