Wild Ones Live - 99% Invisible

Toadvark, 10 months ago

Aww!! I didn’t expect to see this here, I’m smiling like a big dork. I’m an utter fangirl for the band behind the music, Black Prairie, so I heard about and read the book right as it was released (and may or may not own the album on vinyl lol). Just as you said, the book is a great jumping-off point for so many topics…The segment on butterfly conservation stuck with me, for whatever reason.

After all these years I think the song “Waltz for George and Tex” is my favorite. 🪺

Got an album to start on? I only know this song. :)

I’m on my phone and have no clue what hell these links may unleash, but here’s the album on youtube and spotify.

…Now that I think on it, it’s been so long since I listened to the 99PI episode, I can’t even remember if they make use of or even mention the album. Apologies for my fanboy hat maybe being screwed on a little too tight! 😆

EDIT: As for their non-Wild-Ones work, I tend toward their first two albums since they’re a bit more… moody 'n dramatic than the newest one. They’re a side project of a bunch of musicians, so the discography is pretty small and easy to get through.

Afternoon lab music for tomorrow. :) Many thanks.
