On February 4th 1990, Daniel Johnston, from his parents’ home in West Virginia, and Yo La Tengo, in WFMU’s East Orange studios, performed a 3 song set on Nick Hill’s program, The Music Faucet.

This set inspired listener Jeff Feuerzeig to create and direct his recently released documentary, The Devil and Daniel Johnston. Now, we present for your entertainment, the recently resurrected archive for this historic broadcast. (continued)

Liz Janes and Create(!) are currently on tour with fellow Asthmatic Kitty labelmates Half Handed Cloud for a short tour of the midwest. They played last night in Columbus and I really enjoyed what they did – taking public domain songs and reworking them into a sound all their own.

The crowd was so quiet and attentive that at one point Liz came to the front of the stage and played her ukelele, singing to the crowd without any microphones. I loved it.
