The Horsehead NebulaThe Doghead Nebula

We're taking The Horsehead back to its roots this morning, with a fun musical experiment.  Japanese rockers Boris's 2003 album Akuma No Uta is a direct homage to Nick Drake's Bryter Later, released 35 years prior in 1970.  Both albums bear similar album covers, both albums feature "Introductions," and the American 2005 reissue of Akuma No Uta was stretched out to be 39 minutes–the same length as Bryter Later.  Both albums are going to be played simultaneously, all the way through.  It's either going to sound cool, or like bozo-obviously-on-something-wierdness,  Most likely, a little bit of both.  That's what this show is all about in the first place, though, so it's all gravy, baby!

Thanks for listening, and check out the READ MORE to see those aforementioned album covers.
