Steve Albini Died

Tonight’s Twisted Groove I will celebrate the life of Steve Albini who passed away last week. Albini sometimes had a cantankerous demeanor but he held strongly to his core values. He refused to take royalties on albums he worked on (a rare stance in the music industry). I will play tracks from his bands, bands he loved and bands he produced or, the way he would put it, engineered.

Gary Lucas and Captain Beefheart

Tonight’s Twisted Groove I celebrate the music of Gary Lucas and Captain Beefheart. I will feature the soon to be released Gary Lucas compilation Essential Gary Lucas released on Knitting Factory Records. I will also play a load of Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band.
