i really don't understand why he doesn't release anymore solo albums.
i have a feeling he has several albums worth of recorded songs just sitting on the shelf.

he has a computer filled with recordings of covers and shit he's done.  there's a big box in the back of largo that has recordings of pretty much everything.  most of the new solo album has already been recorded at abbey road, he's probably just tinkering with it for millions of years now.  and looking at his hand

nope, this is information i have pulled from many sources.  i think it was that gondry talked about how he was talking to brion about hearing 'everybody's gotta learn sometime' on the radio and jon suddenly pulled it up on his computer with countless covers/recordings of songs.  turn out he had recorded it a few weeks prior to that

jon going to abbey road was confirmed by his agent and what he said at recent largo shows.

i've been looking for an MP3 of his song "the girl i knew"...i know the video is online of him performing it live and impressively  recording all the instruments live...but god damn it, i want a decent MP3.

when listening to the new Loose Fur i had the thought:

what if Jim O'Rourke and Jon Brion worked together?

both are singer/songwriter/producers/ and talented at multiple instruments.

what do you think?

Quote from: LA WEEKLY
He's especially fond of engaging with musicians and film directors wise enough to leave him to his devices yet sufficiently firm in their own visions to forge a truly collaborative spirit. Such was the case with Huckabees' David O. Russell, for whom Brion will also score the upcoming There Will Be Blood.
wow, how wrong.  who writes these things?

that new Waterloo Sunset file they put up is great.

i finally got high speed internet access at work, so i was hoping i would find a good video of one of his Largo performances where he records each instrument one at a time until it's a full song.

any idea where i could stream something like this?
