Goodbye RBally, Mule, Venice is Sinking, Cinematic Orchestra, Greg Dulli, Neil Young, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash, My Morning Jacket, Broken Social Scene, M Ward, Pogues and Turnpike Glow review


First, goodbye RBally and thank you for all the wonderful music you have provided.

Berkeley Place has some Greg Dulli, Afghan Whigs, Twilight Singers rarities.


Music is Art has a performance by the cinematic orchestra from 6-24-01


Something I Learned has a few tracks by the almighty Mule


Southern Shelter has a live Venice is Sinking show from 9-29-06.


The Aquarium Drunk has two shows, Neil Young live 2-27-71 and my morning jacket live on KVRX in 2000.


Brooklyn Vegan gives some love to local musician Death Vessel, while the commenters aren't quite so kind.


Bradley's Almanac has the recent Brandeis University Broken Social Scene show.


Kwana Na Kisser has some 1969-70 outtakes from Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash.


Ick Music has a couple of things- a video of M Ward on a late night tv show (love the mike watt sticker) and also a Pogues show from 5-10-85.


Record Robot posts the rare Leonard Nemoy album "The Touch of...."


Jefito has a great, unique website. It has always been a place to stop in and read his detailed and painfully honest profiles of musicians bodies of work over their careers- album by album, warts and all. Aside from posting amazing live shows and rare collections of outtakes, he also loves to review horrible cds from the cutout bin. He recently ran a review of our Turnpike Glow release.


Turnpike Glow - Rush Home

here's Rush Home in 75 words or less:

Evokes the best of early-early '90s alt-pop, when the guitars were good 'n swirly and the layers of sound were airy and plentiful. The RIYL thing is seldom accurate enough to be useful, but call these guys, oh, I don't know, The Sundays meets Pavement, but with enough of a twist to keep nostalgia from completely running the show. Download a pair of songs from the band's website and hear for yourself.

the found music site
in case you are new here....we post irregularly to our favorite links to rare and live music available for download. we do not link to lossless files, as we are half deaf ourselves. we also don't host any files, as we do not comprehend the technology. we simply stumble across this stuff and share the links. please support all the websites and bands that do all the real work getting this music into your ears. all the sites listed below have more great music and content. most of these links will go dead at some point so grab the music while you can.

We are based out of Providence, Rhode Island. We offer no apologies, nor should you hold that against us. More info here on 75orLess at any of these web pages:

THE MUSIC REVIEW WEBSITE


It's a reasonable question. The idea was born during our daily music chats, while discussing reviews we'd read. There was only one thing we consistently agreed on: they were too long. It seemed the point of how the music sounded and whether or not it was good was lost in an overlong mess of lyric quotes, personal accounts and a seemingly desperate attempt to fulfill a word count. Eventually someone said, "It's gotten to the point where if you can't say it in 75 words or less, you should shut the eff up". Within a week, 75orless.com was born. The best part about our limit is its reversal of typical music reviews. We limit the amount of words we use, and are not required to reach a number.

Welcoming electronic, hip-hop, indie, folk, punk, disco, pop, cock rock, math rock, brit pop, nu gaze, blues, garage, country, new new wave, rockabilly, idm, crust, techno, grindcore and all other music submissions. Where words with 2 letters or fewer do not count.
