The Claypool Lennon Delirium - Little Fishes (Live at The Current)

The Claypool Lennon Delirium perform 'Little Fishes' from their 2019 album, 'South of Reality,' live in The Current studio.

This is like listening to Zappa if he made sense. I'm starting to digg Sean's work, because honestly, if Les Claypool is playin in it, I'm there. So kuddos to both of them for taking a chance on each other. That Bass string bend gets me everytime! Brilliant trigger for the change.

[@thedrumdon2485]

Is it just me or is the songwriting ridiculously great and the sound is so fluid and well conceived - Sean Lennon adds a mystique and magic that is genuine and not forced like so many bands attempt to do

[@TheestofHaxors]

This performance just feels so, relaxing. Like, comparing it to the studio track, the guitar is not as loud and the vocals are softer. The bass tone has more of the iconic Les sound, and the synth is a lot quieter than when I saw them last weekend. This is probably my favorite version I have heard.

[@agunsux]

I thought that their debut album was hard to defeat but their second one is a slow burn. Getting better every time you listen. It grows on you.

[@chriskeck3689]

Agreeeeeed

[@primatein]

My thoughts exactly

[@ntutino1980]

Second album is the one that sold me on this project which I initially dismissed without giving it a chance. Lime and Limpid Green is perfect too

Nobody is making interesting music these days and we're stuck in a world of musical mediocrity and familiarity. Then........Like a breath of fresh air, this comes along. Leave it to Claypool/ Lennon to make things interesting again. Claypool is an innovator and always has been and this is a great combination. Sean is the product of one of the monster talents of popular music, and I'm not referring to Yoko lol His Dad would have been proud with the direction Sean has taken with his music. His Father never rested on his laurels and always pushed the envelope. Like Father, like Son, though It's unfair to compare the two, but it's inevitable when you're John's son. I always liked Sean's music anyway. Dead Meat, Parachutes, On again, off again, etc. This is what happens when creative people are allowed to create music that makes you think a bit, as opposed to the mindless drivel of today's mainstream music industry. Their first album was excellent, and this one is even better.

[@LLCoolPeas]

I agree with everything you say dude, except that first statement. There's tonnes of interesting music out there being created right now, you just might be finding it hard to discover it. We're getting used to being fed it, via recommendations... like the mainstream did. In one sense its easier to discover new stuff via algorithms based on your interests, but in the same way its easy to become rabbit-holed. Let me know what you're into and i'll see if there's anything I can suggest for you to begin a new musical journey lol..

About that familiarity ............. er ............... as my teens were from mid 60's to early 70's, there's nothing unfamiliar in this song. Beatles, Foyd and Yes all mashed up. Even the title is a nod towards Chris Squire (aka 'the fish'). Deffinitely entertaining, but more retro than creative.
