During the first half of the 1990s, pop music vastly outnumbered underground/experimental music. It was the revenge of melody, after a quarter of a century of progressive sounds. A cycle that began with the demise of the Beatles and the rise of alternative/progressive rock, and that continued with the German and Canterbury schools of the 1970s, and then punk-rock and the new wave, and peaked with the alt-rock and college- pop of the 1980s, came to an abrupt, grinding halt in the 1990s. The more fashionable and rewarding route was, however, the one that coasted the baroque pop of latter-day Beach Boys, Van Dyke Parks, Big Star and XTC, the one that coupled catchy refrains and lush arrangements. The single most important school may have been San Francisco's, which had originated in the 1980s with the Sneetches. Jellyfish (2), featuring guitarist Jason Falkner, wrote perhaps the most impeccable melodies of the time. Bellybutton (1990), a milestone of naive, bubblegum melodic music inspired by Merseybeat and later Beach Boys, was both cartoonish and shimmering, while the arrangements on Spilt Milk (1993) were almost baroque.

Released as a limited edition of 500 LPs in 1992, the album featured handmade covers and blank labels to keep expenses as low as possible. Their other albums hadn’t sold much, why would this one? As fate would have it, the band wound up releasing an album chock full of gems Pollard had stockpiled, and for the first time sounded distinctly like the band that fans have since come to love. "Propeller" also marks the return of Tobin Sprout to the GBV fold, along with an increased songwriting presence. "Propeller" is a hell of a ride, and remains one of the most important albums in the band's discography.

    Z Pacanowa do Los Angeles | 1 29 października 2018 Z Pacanowa do Los Angeles Karolina Kępczyk rozmawia z malarką Anną Osiecką. Pada. Zimno. Jesienna plucha w Pacanowie. Ja bez słońca nie działam, więc jadę na spotkanie z artystką po energię. Mieszka nad Wisłą. Pochodzi z Krakowa, jest absolwentką Akademii Sztuk Pięknych, od dwóch lat mieszka w Kępie Lubawskiej na terenie gminy Pacanów. Umawiałyśmy się od pół roku i wreszcie… W domu, a zarazem pracowni malarskiej jest ciepło. Od progu wita mnie przesympatyczna osóbka o śmiejących się oczach – Anna Osiecka. W porcelanowym imbryku parzy się herbata, na stole dziergany obrus, dynie, zasuszone kwiaty. W tle transowa muzyka. Jemy orkiszową domową szarlotkę i galaretkę z truskawkami z ogrodu artystki. Jest przytulnie jak u babci. Bo Pani Anna wyznaje zasadę rodzinną: Trzeba ugościć! I ta gospodyni od szarlotki i truskawek wkrótce ma wystawę w USA! Jak się to robi? Tekst pochodzi ze strony www.swietokrzyskie.pro Z Pacanowa do Los Angeles | 1 Z Pacanowa do Los Angeles | 2 – Czego słuchamy? – To grupa „Morphine”, trio z Cambridge (USA). Zaczęli w latach 90-tych. – To ważna dla Pani muzyka? Przypomina mi „Archive”, którego słucham i jeżdżę na koncerty. – Bardzo lubię, słucham malując. Słucham różnej muzyki: jazz, klasyczną, rock, industrial, pop z lat 80-tych, Morphine to trio łączące elementy stylistyki rocka z elementami bluesa i jazzu. Skład: Mark Sandman, założyciel, który już nie żyje, Dana Colley, Jerome Deupree, Billy Conway. – Artystka po ASP zostawia artystyczny Kraków, bohemę, dla małej wioski w Świętokrzyskim. To dość nietypowe. O co tu chodzi? – Lubię wieś. Inspiruje mnie twórczo. Uspokaja.
