Doesn't have to be a great revelation. Doesn't have to change the year in music. Could be old. Could be new. Just has to do it for this week. So what is doing it for you this week?

:P I thought two of the songs were cute. The rest were... um... not quite to my taste.
Luke Doucet, Steel City Trawler.  I can't get "Dirty, Dirty Blonde" out of my head!!
I dunno. Love me that Lucinda Williams, "Essence''....
I review many cd's and most recently came across an Americana artist from Texas named Samuel Barker. He sounds like Chris Knight and writes some great songs. I know Folk Artist Otis Gibbs is a fan, I recently came across him wearing a Samuel Barker shirt. That being said I thought I would share a link with you guys so that other people could hear him and maybe open you up to something I stumbled upon.

This week....."Mission Bell"  /  Amos Lee

this week listening to...

Dolorean-The Unfazed

John Hiatt-Dirty Jeans and Mudslide Hymns

Fountains of Wayne-Sky Full of Holes

Mark Kozelek-Lost Verses Live

Lindsey Buckingham-Seeds We Sow

Rainer-17 Miracles

 - Rod Picott - Welding Burns.  So far the best this year for me

Welding Burns is a truly excellent album. Picott is one of those artists who, in a more fair world, would be far better known. 

 

I've also been enjoying this week new albums by two other unjustly unrecognized artists: Ana Egge's Bad Blood, and Brigitte Demeyer's Rose of Jericho.And, although he's somewhat better known, I'm enjoying John Doe's new album, Keeper.

Rockpile - Live at Montreux

Robert Earl Keen - Ready for Confetti

Steve Cropper - Dedicated

The Bottle Rockets - Not So Loud

Dab Baird & Homemade Sin - Fresh Out of Georgia Live Like a Satellite

The record that's been spinning round and round on the player (and whatever goes on inside an ipod) is

Jolie Holland's Pint Of Blood.  

Saw her play at Bush Hall W London this week.  Jolie + electric guitar.  Seeing songs performed live always adds to the record.

 

And thanks to the vagaries of iPod shuffle,

Joe Ely's Satisfied At Last

bubbled up and grabbed the attention several times with a WTF was that?

Joe Ely..havent heard 'Satisfied at Last' but reminded how much I loved  'Live Shots', 'Musta Notta Gotta Lotta' ,'Honky Tonk Masquerade' in the  late '70's and early '80's

This week (end) it's :-

PJ Harvey - Let England Shake....well deserved 2nd Mercury album of the year for PJ

Richmond Fontaine - The High Country...being looking forward to this and on first impressions won't be dissapointed!

St.Vincent - Actor
