3RD HAND COLLECTIVE: SPIRIT INVOCATION + SUB-POP ANOMALIES
Our mediums J Lee (Farfisa organ, synth), Nick Fowler (overhead projections), and Marina Lazzara (vocals) will guide you across the threshold of the hereafter in this ambient and poetic collaboration with the spirit world! If they manage to bring us back from the Other side, then we’ll witness a procession of musical luminaries that haunt the subterranean history of Outsider music and the derrière garde. Marie Osmond/Tristan Tzara, Frank Zappa and his musique concrète, Sesame Street’s The Blob, Harry Partch‘s 43 Tones, Mills College‘s prepared piano, musical trapeze acts, Mirror Men, and singing ostriches! PLUS jaw-dropping Soundies and Scopitones featuring Corinna Mura in Babalu, Joi Lansing in The Web Of Love, and Spike Jones/Mel Blanc in Clink Clink. Setting the stage for Ivy Woods‘ double bass deconstruction, David Cox opens this extravaganza on the Optigan, and it’s closed with a trio of head and tail credits (only!): The Residents in The Theory of Obscurity, Captain Beefheart in John Peel’s The Artist Formally Known As, and The Animals in a Spanish-dubbed scratched snatch. $11.11
