Tech Notes "Moon Duo, as their name may imply, are a San Francisco-based two piece guitar and keyboard combo. With the help of their faithful drum machine to drive the beat they make the kind of simple Kraut inspired psych-drone for which I can always find a place in my heart. Guitarist Ripley Johnson, who sports a rather awesome beard, is also a member of Wooden Shijps but allegedly finds touring easier with just one other person, Sanae Yamadato on keys, to worry about. On this evening at the Casbah, they treated the sparse crowd to songs from their excellent second album 'Mazes' which came out just recently on Sacred Bones records as well as some old favourites. Indeed, their first album 'Escape' on Woodsist is also well worth tracking down if you can still get hold of a vinyl copy anywhere. There was solid support from local groups Ale Mania and Trap Gold, who seem to be popping up at all sorts of shows I am at just at the moment."
