Glenn Branca - The Ascension

I heard something by him a long time ago. I don't know which album it was; it was on a tape an old friend had. I listened to it because not long before I saw the tape, I had read an interview with Sonic Youth and they were talking about his influence on their sound which made sense when I listened to the tape. Have you heard other stuff (besides The Ascension) by him, and if so, what are some good picks? Thanks.

I have one CD by him I got a long time ago that didn't impress me as much as Ascension.  The Ascension would be a good one to start with, though.  Wasn't Lee Renaldo part of Branca's guitar "orchestra" at one point?

Cool, cuz I just downloaded The Ascension using Soulseek today. Yes, I think he was, and I think that may have been the one I heard way back when.

Mmmm-hmmm...Yes, I've seen this syndrome before in Chocolate City, where I interned.  The subject insists on freeing his/her mind, believing that his/her ass will follow directly. The condition is known as Promentalshitbackwashpsychosis, occurring co-morbidly with an advanced case of Maggot Brain

Symptoms include:
  • A state of mental diarrhea, talking shit a mile a minute.
  • A state of constipated notions, can't think of nothin' but shit

We've sent for Dr. Funkenstein, who's been bustin' The Kidz out of the insidious Sir Nose D'Voidoffunk's Funkless Troubled Teen Industry.  Y'all remember, kidz - only a No-Man can love a program.

I'm the Lollipop Kid(AKA The Long-haired Sucker), signing off from Chocolate City's WFNK, where we need a you to Funk. This last number goes out to Jimmy Pearce from Julius "Poochie" Stringfellow... Poochie's "got a gift for relating to and motivating young men", all the while liberally fondling some jailbait junk.  Can you imagine a Doobie in your Funk?  One Nation Under A Mutha Funkin' Groove.  Peace.

"Jimmy's got a little bit of bitch in him
The bitch in him
Upsets the Jim
Jimmy's got a little bit of bitch in him
The bitch in him
Outweighs the Jim
Jimmy's got a little bit of she in he
But when he pee, he see

Reality can be a-stiff sometimes
But then again it can be flexible
Depending on the angle of the dangle
Increased by the heat of the meat
And with the proposition that all men are not created equal
So why frown?
Yeah, even the sun go down
We'll call it mixed emotions for now
Play on, Jimmy"







(Can you tell I'm bored?)

It is a great record.  I think it came out in 1981, and it still can't be topped.  One person could give it a shot these days, multi-tracking into oblivion with Pro-Tools, but could they compose as well as Branca?

There's a live recording by the Velvet Underground, I think it's The Quine Tapes, and Lou Reed hits a little feedback that sounds great and says, "You hear that?  Can you imagine a hundred guitars doing that?"   Guess Branca thought it was a hell of an idea.
