As close to indie rock royalty as may exist, Ira Kaplan of Yo La Tengo–a band nearing its 40th year in existence that he founded with his partner, drummer Georgia Hubley in the mid-1980’s–has recorded 17 records under that name and influenced more bands than could be named here. Simultaneously considered critics’ darlings but also having established a wide, loyal, and sustaining fanbase, the band–anchored by bass player James McNew–will perform with the Sun Ra Arkestra at the Big Ears Festival in Knoxville in March. In this episode, he discusses how songs by Half Japanese, the Grateful Dead, and The Tremeloes guided his development.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Live from Pawnee: A Parks and Recreation Fan Rewatch Podcast

This week Mark and Allen complete their breakdown the Episode where we finally meet the Department of the Interior's resident "bad boy", Liam Bonneville!  Leslie is in San Francisco, scheduled to speak at the National Parks Conference about the Pawnee/Eagleton merger. At the conference, Leslie bumps into Grant Larson, who invites her to lunch and introduces her to a number of her idols, including Michelle Obama. Grant tells a starstruck Leslie he needs a final decision from her by tomorrow, and after all this, Leslie is heavily leaning towards taking the job. Later, Leslie gives her speech at the conference, describing the Pawnee/Eagleton merger completing in 6-12 months, but her timeline is ridiculed by the audience, with two department heads suggesting the merger will need 10 years of constant hands-on management, or else risk her precious town losing its cityhood and becoming "unincorporated territory". Needless to say, this shakes Leslie to her core, and despite meeting her idols earlier, and how perfect this job seems ... she is now considering not taking it.  Meanwhile, Tom's Bistro is set to open in 6 weeks, but when investor Mitch Savner mentions how great it would be for the restaurant to be ready in time for the Unity Concert, Tom jumps the gun and promises to have the place ready for a soft opening the next day, and be ready for officially opening at the end of the week. Tom desperately brings all hands on deck, recruiting April, Craig, Ron and Donna to help him get the restaurant serviceable. Things do not go well: Ron is unable to make 20 chairs in time, Craig is unable to do his job as sommelier due to sinus/allergy issues, and Jerry Gergich orders the menus with ... uh ... let's just say, the wrong background image. As the night goes on, Mitch becomes more and more concerned and upset with the way Tom is running things.  Also meanwhile, Ben and Andy are also in San Francisco to meet with tech company "Gryzzl", who is giving away free Wi-Fi to a few cities across the US. Ben meets with them to pitch the idea of Pawnee being one of the cities. Unfortunately, they are only focusing on big cities, so they turn Ben down. After some time to think, Ben is determined to not take no for an answer, and goes back with Andy a 2nd time.  This time, however, he sees a large group of Gryzzl employees - including the Gryzzl owners he spoke to in the first meeting - playing the board game HE invented.  That's right ... they are playing "The Cones of Dunshire"!  Finally, we witness the day we've all been waiting for ... the Unity Concert is here! April and Andy lead the final Unity Concert planning meeting, with a main goal of getting 2000 signatures in support of the Pawnee-Eagleton merger. Andy also tries one last time (unsuccessfully) to get Ron to play as Duke Silver during the concert. Later, we see the Unity Concert in full swing, with headline acts The Decemberists, Ginuwine, Letters to Cleo, Bobby Knight Ranger, and Land Ho bringing in huge crowds. Andy performs as Johnny Karate on the children's stage, and afterwards bumps into Burly. The two reminisce over Mouse Rat's break up and it brings back memories for Andy as he misses being a part of a band. On a similar note, Diane encourages Ron to get up on stage and have fun, but Ron has no intention of doing so.  As always, we tackle the tough questions, such as ... Will Leslie take the job? Will Tom's investor, Mitch Savner, back out of the deal? How did Gryzzl get their hands on the Cones of Dunshire? Can Andy find a way to deal with the fact that he misses being in a band? Will Leslie move away from Pawnee? Could there be another opportunity for Tom's Bistro to be redeemed? Can Ben leverage the Cones of Dunshire to his advantage? Does Ron become convinced to play as Duke Silver at some point? Can Leslie find a way to have it all? Does Tom find a way to turn things around? Will Pawnee get free WiFi? Will the gang manage to collect 2000 signatures in support of the Pawnee-Eagleton merger?  Loyal viewers, we MADE IT! We are at the END of Season 6! Can you even believe it?!? Will this 53 MINUTE extravaganza blow everything else out of the water? Tune in and find out!

Ira Kaplan and Georgia Hubley have been married and making music together as Yo La Tengo for over thirty years at this point, but in the spring of 1997 they recorded their magnum opus - “I Can Hear The Heart Beat As One”. They put Hoboken on the indie map around this time with legendary Hannakuh residencies at a bar called Maxwell's and collaborated on music videos with local alt-comedy luminaries David Cross and Bob Odenkirk. Containing krauty motorik jamming, fuzzy trip-bop and noisey blasts of scuzz alongside the more traditional straightforward indie rock guitar music, I Can Hear The Heart Beat As One is generally regarded as the best Yo La Tengo record, and is the most commercially successful LP from their oeuvre. I Can Hear The Heart Beat As One is also the 423rd Greatest Album of All Time according to Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, which means that Christopher and Liam have listened to it and now they're going to get their autumn sweaters on and smash it up octopad-style. Featuring digressions and hot takes on everything from Mr Magoo, Girl Talk, Mr Show with Bob & David, Ghetto Superstar and The Sounds of The Sounds of Science as well as Secret Posho, Is This Emo?

In April, Yo La Tengo's landmark 1997 album I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One celebrated its 25th anniversary. In this latest episode of our Matador Revisionist History podcast, the band – Georgia Hubley, Ira Kaplan, and James McNew – joins label co-owner Gerard Cosloy to discuss the record's history and singular standing within the YLT oeuvre. “We know this is considered a key part of the arc,” explains Kaplan. “If we're at the merch table and somebody is asking, ‘I don't have any of your records, which one should I get?' we know this is the right answer. Whether we feel that way or not, we know we're supposed to recommend this record.” Further reminiscences include the origin of The Condo Fucks, how a fake Brian Brain tribute album spiraled into real-life drama, and why the working title of “The Lie and How We Told It” was “The Hard Singing Song.”

Yo La Tengo formed in 1984. The band is made up Ira Kaplan, Georgia Hubley, and James McNew. In March 2018, they released There’s a Riot Going On, their 15th album. They made the record themselves—they recorded it entirely in their rehearsal studio with James handling the engineering duties. The album came together slowly, over a few years. In this episode, Georgia, James, and Ira break down the experiments and accidents that led to the the closing track from the record, the song "Here You Are." songexploder.net/yo-la-tengo

Matador Records est un label indépendant que Chris Lombardi a créé dans son appartement new yorkais en 89. Il sort l’EP « and there was light » d’HP Zinker en 90, suivi de l’EP de Dustdevils, puis du 1er album Superchunk. En 91, Gerard Cosloy rejoindra Lombardi. Leur collaboration dure toujours à l’heure actuelle. Avant d’arriver chez Matador, Gerard Cosloy était l’ancien manager du label Homestead Records qui a entre autre hébergé des artistes comme Sonic Youth, Daniel Johnston ou GG Allin. Matador connaîtra son 1er succès médiatique et commercial en 90 en sortant le 1er album de Teenage Fan Club : « A Catholic Eduction ». En 1993, le label commence un partenariat avec Atlantic Records qui durera une paire d’années. Capitol possèdera un temps des parts dans le label, revendu depuis. Depuis 2002, Matador est copossédé avec Beggars Group, et opère à présent aussi bien à New York qu’à Londres. En 2010, Matador a organisé une série de concerts à Las Vegas pour fêter son 21ème anniversaire. Lors de cet événement de nombreux artistes ont exprimé leur admiration pour Matador. Notamment Damian Abraham a dit que Matador leur a donné de la crédibilité en tant que groupe, que c’était un des plus grand label indé de tous les temps. Ira Kaplan dira "C’est dur à raconter sans avoir recours à des clichés, mais pour moi, Matador aime vraiment la musique". Ses louanges prouvent l’importance du label dans la musique indépendante.

For episode 109, I am calling an audible. Originally, this was supposed to be a discussion on The Replacements reunion. However, on the scheduled recording night, Omaha was subjected to flash flooding, extreme storms, and tornadoes. So, obviously, we had to reschedule. In its place, I have found an interview with Ira Kaplan from indie legends, Yo La Tengo. This short interview was conducted live, on-air, during my radio show, New Day Rising. It was recorded Sunday, October 15, 2006, a week before Yo La Tengo's first ever Omaha concert. The interview had taken me by surprise, as I thought it had been cancelled. I didn't even bring my questions! I did the interview live on-air despite there being a strong prohibition against doing so at my station. At the time, Yo La Tengo was promoting its album, I Am Not Afraid of You and I Will Beat Your Ass. The rest is pretty self-explanatory. Sorry for the confusion about the episodes. All should be back to normal next week. ©2014 The Dark Stuff Podcast

From the ball fields and barrooms of Hoboken to your turntable, uh, CD player, uhm, MP3 player comes Yo La Tango, uh, Tengo, and with them alternative, uhm, indie rock. In Big Day Coming: Yo La Tengo and the Rise of Indie Rock (Gotham, 2012) journalist Jesse Jarnow chronicles the three-decade career these seminal rock stalwarts. This is the story of Yo La Tengo, a band composed of husband and wife team Georgia Hubley and Ira Kaplan, James McNew, and a rotating casts of dozens of others that include musicians, writers, recording engineers, comedians, barbecue joints, baseball teams and, of course, fans. They are a band that sometimes plays Neil Young loud and sometimes Lamb Chop quiet, sometimes within the same measure. They have maintained a solid career, starting small within Hoboken, New Jersey’s indie scene, and growing, one step at a time, into a professional rock band that pays their bills and treats others with respect. They are musically and gastrointestinally adventurous, playing and eating what they want, not what is hip. Along the way, a structural scene and musical genre–“indie rock”–emerged with them. Jarnow captures the band and the scene at every turn, providing a richly detailed account of the songs, albums, bars, fanzines, studios and people who make up the world of Yo La Tengo. Jesse Jarnow hosts the Frow Show on Jersey City freeform radio station WFMU. His work has appeared in the London Times, Rolling Stone, the Village Voice, and elsewhere.
