sean:

JD:
Oh but you know how rumors are.
Nodaisho:
Agalloch is supposed to release an album this year. I say supposed to because I said that they were last year, and then it ended up taking longer than they expected and getting postponed.
a pack of wolves:
--- Quote from: Inlander on 11 Jan 2010, 14:39 ---I can't claim to be an expert about this particular topic, but from footage I've seen of Simon in confrontation with people, and from what I've read and also heard first-hand from friends of my mother's, the allegation seems to have been not so much financial as artistic: Simon, it was alleged, took advantage of these African musicians to boost his own profile and claim all the work as his own. Which is why it strikes me as paternalistic, because it supposes that the African musicians weren't taking advantage of the opportunities offered by working Paul Simon just as much as he was taking advantage of their musical skills to make his album.
--- End quote ---
This would make much more sense as an argument if the contributions of session musicians weren't habitually overlooked, regardless of the circumstances. Ladysmith Black Mambazo got a hell of a lot more exposure from Graceland than the guy who wrote the bass line for Walk On The Wild Side ever did.
New Wiley album this year I think, and I'm wondering if A Forest Of Stars will do that second album.

I am in love with the two new hot chip tracks.
