Digging thru the Massachusetts haul, some fun singles and jazz reissues. A celebratory show, Thurston’s 60th and some Bill Nace tracks in honor of that new Body/Head record, highly recommended. Slow burning psych crossed with locked groove freakouts in the first hour, second hour is noisy, then tranquil. Tonight’s show is bookended with weirdo tracks from a John Wiese and Cherry Point 7″.
