A short Colorplates review in RockRoll Experience.

“What it is is either a rock opera pieced together very carefully and in the minutest detail, or it is 19 experiments in music or perhaps musical theater woven together with the skill of one who suffers from OCD. I am leaning toward the former because the more I hear this, the more I hear genius.” Frank O. Gutch Jr.

You have waited 31 years for this. Wait no more. The Colorplates – Agony and Ecstasy, a career spanning retrospective (okay, it was 2 1/2 years) is primed and ready for you. Available in download land or direct from Green Monkey on CDR with beautiful printed cover, you want this. This ain’t no pretty, sweet stuff, no sir. This is just rip it up falling on the edge chaos. Music for happy anarchists!

” Review in Music-News.com: I Ain’t Blue Any More suggests that the eclectic performer is either an alternative genius or completely not cut out for the music industry. You decide.” Daniel Davidson-Amadi

1. Went to Slim’s in Georgetown and shot video footage of the King County Queens for some kind of video for their new album, which is out to press.Howie and Jeremy shot stills as well.

2. Went through various cover permutations with the KCQs. We are getting closer to having a something beautiful.

3. Finished off expanded cover and disc art for The OF‘s “Oh It’s the OF.” Found the dropout in the master and sent it back to Squimbolio to fix.

4. Went through pile of old papers from a million years ago to find the sheet music I wrote for “Speak” in 1983. Found it. Will record for new album. Also found sheet music for Ornette Coleman‘s “A Girl Called Rainbow” that I bought around then. Only one known recording of it. Sent both to Jim of Seattle for collaboration. I will do my version for new record.

5. Started working on cover for Green Pajamas‘ “November” – recorded live in the studio 1989 or so.
