 | All Night Radio - All Night Radio/ Flying Bat Factory 12" Following the demise of Beachwood Sparks, Dave Scher teamed up with friend Jimi Hey for a near perfect slice of psych-pop under the alias All Night Radio. The name referred to their meeting as DJ and listener of | |
| Scher's college radio show. They disbanded after one album and one tour. This 12" preceded the album and was hand screened by the band members. The a-side would go on to close out the album in a longer format but the b-side scrapes together seemingly every influence they could find. It's a trip through sweet psych, hip-hop beats and sound collage all rolled into a swirly entertaining mess. I have to admit I was a little heartbroken when this duo called it quits. They were definitely my favorite of the Beachwood offshoots. Download: [MP3] All Night Radio -All Night Radio (Flying Bat Factory Mix) | ||

Completely agree with, "favorite Beachwood offshoots." I'm just glad I actually caught a show before it was all over.
The last thing I saw Farmer Dave do was sit in with Jonathan Wilson playing lap steel guitar, wearing a Vietnam T-shirt with a feather in his hat. And the last time I saw Jimi Hey in a band was drenched the erratic framing of strobe lights, making incredible noise with Indian Jewelry. And though I liked what they did with these projects, still can't compare to All Night Radio...
And speaking of Beachwood Sparks, Further is my other favorite family relation!
