Oooh the last hour is always the worst! The cd is HOT! He did an instore where I work about a month and a half ago. Just him and his electric bass and the drummer from the CD with his HUGE drum kit. 45 minutes of them just going at it. It was amazing.

Watching and listening....The Flaming Lips - U.F.O.s At The Zoo The Legendary Concert In Oklahoma City DVD. WOW! Amazing show in their hometown. Always liked their music but never realized the connection they have with their fans, and they pulled out all the stops for this one. Great stuff.

[ScoopJohnD]

The Great Debaters soundtrack. Thanks AtPontchartrain, it was your thread that got me to add it to my promo pile from work. REALLY good!!! :)

On a related note, I don't know if there is a soundtrack cd yet, but the music and the band in John Sayles new movie Honeydrippers is amazing especially a young Texas guitar player Gary Clark Jr. who also stars in the movie. The house band did a short tour this summer and I was lucky enough to see em in NYC. Should of made my list of best shows of 2007. Here's a link to a page from the movie sight where you can read about the band and if you click on the names you can see clips from the NYC show.

Subdudes - Street Symphony. Sooooooooooooooo good.

[ScoopJohnD]

Teddy Thompson - Upfront & Down Low. Richard and Linda's son does real country. The record company probably had a collective heart attack when he delivered this one. But it is also really, really good.

Doctors Professors Kings & Queens (A surprise Christmas present)
Mardi Gras Essentials (now that it's officially Carnival Season)
The Instant & Minit Story (A requested Christmas present)
Gumbo Stew - AFO records (Another Christmas request...)
Booby Hicks - I'm Florida

I'll tell ya, I jumped out of my chair (and ran straight to the CD player) when I opened that first item. To call it a box set doesn't even do it justice... And did I mention it was a surprise?

Spent the day yesterday taking down Christmas decorations, playing the music loud so I could hear it outside. Neighbors coming over and getting happy feet. Yeah you right.

Bear witness to the healing power of music.

Love ol Hubert ! Right now, Kate Campbell - Twang On A Wire. She's a great roots type singer from Mississippi now in Nashville. Has a bunch of records out, I just got this one it's about 5 years old. Aside from the title tune, it's her singing the songs she learned to play guitar and sing to when she was a teen, country songs sung by women from the 70's. Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette, Emmylou, Jeanne C Riley, Tanya Tucker, Loretta Lynn. Great versions with a stripped down band. Her last album 'For The Living of These Days' is also wonderful. She's really good, check it and her out.

I love Kate Campbell! She plays here a lot. I really like the stuff with the B-3 on it the best.

I just picked up 'For The Living Of These Days' on a lark. The notes on the album and that it was with Spooner Oldham convinced me to give it a try. I wasn't disappointed! And like I said, 'Twang On A Wire' is wonderful. Now I have to get the rest, AND see if I can see her live sometime.

Have mentioned here it before - but it bears repeating.

When he hits the rags and Sunnyside of the Street..this album brings to mind that while I keep wanting to see Instruments A Comin, my heart belongs to Piano Night and there we'll be.

Going trough a few Ledbelly selections. The best 12 stringer ever from LA.? His Gallows Pole ("Gallis Pole") is devastating. Lawrence Welk is coming up in a few minutes though. It's a must see tonight.

The Midnight Band was incredible live...but this is one live album that doesn't short change the experience. YYR, it's a time tunnel right back to long ago times, some of which I, personally, was fortunate to survive.

I waited for years for Gil's stuff to make it to CD as I worn out my double LP out decades out. The wait was worth it, (although "Bridges" has not not been released), because most of the other released albums like Winter in America and The First Minute of a New Day include some other live gems and good stuff from the Archives that I'd never heard.

Although Brian is still active, Gil has been in and out of prison for years. I heard last week that his voice is also ruined and that is shame. I've always hoped to catch them one more time

[ScoopJohnD]

Ray Davies - Other People's Lives. His new one 'Working Man's Cafe' comes out in a few weeks. What I've heard is great. I don't think there's a better songwriter at turning the little things that make up life into such amazingly brilliant songs.

[BigDag]

The new Blind Boys of Alabama cd. I really like it. Very appropriate for a Sunday morning.

The restaurant thread has motivated me to head to Callaghan's for their version of eggs benedict: poached eggs on english muffins, covered in a shrimp & spinich cream sauce.

Good and good for you.

Have a mellow Sunday, everybody.

Toots and the Maytals, Wailing Souls, Gregory Isaacs, Jr. Reid, Lee 'Scratch' Perry and a bunch of others doing The Police, including some suprises. Ali Campbell from UB 40 doing a killer 'Everything She Does Is Magic', Joan Osborne nailing 'Every Breath You Take' and then the REAL suprises.....Cyril Neville doing 'Wrapped Around Your Finger' and Big Chief Monk Boudreaux & The Uppressors with Ras Tree doing 'Spirits In The Material World'.

This is a real nice record.

Places I've known
Things that I'm growin'
Don't taste the same without you
I got my self in
The worst mess I've been
And I find myself starvin' without you

Seems to me
Talk all night here comes the mornin'
Seems to me
You just forget what we said and greet the day

I've got to cool myself down
Stompin' around
Thinkin' some words I can't name ya
Meet you half way
Got nothing to say
Still I don't s'ppose I can blame ya

Seems to me
You don't wanna talk about it
Seems to me
You just turn your pretty head and walk away

Speaking of prog rock, are there any Marillion fan THs out there? Marillion and I go WAY back and I don't pull them out very often anymore...only when I am alone. I had a two hour drive to make last night and broke them out for the drive...man, those songs take me back to some dark places...but I like exploring them every once in a while.

Not sure I ever thought of them as prog rock...they seemed to me a bit more like an 80's hair band who could actually play their instruments. But I have some old vinyl by them that I'll dig out to revisit.

[sophisticated sissy]

Blasphemy. 80's hair band? Are you kidding me? You apparently have a different band or different music in mind.

From progarchives dot com (your ultimate prog rock resource), "MARILLION is a progressive rock band originating from United Kingdom that plays mostly Neo Progressive music."

They are often cited as the orginators of Neo-progressive rock. Frequent comparisons are made to Pink Floyd, early Peter Gabriel Genesis and YES. I don't think any of those comparisons are entirely accurate as I have never encountered any other music that captures what Marillion does. Their concept albums are always my favorites...they are like stories set to music.

[ScoopJohnD]

Willie Nelson - Moment Of Forever His new one......wow it's really good. Kenny Chesney helps out and he does a fine version of Randy Newman's 'Louisiana' and Dylan's 'Gotta Serve Somebody'.

Also a nice version of Dave Matthews' 'Gravedigger'.

[Michelino]

Railroad Earth - Elko - picked up at CFF. Rather found of this group now.

[steeleye]

Since I am contemplating spending mucho dinero to see them in Philly, Radiohead, "Hail to the Thief."

[ScoopJohnD]

Besides the James McMurtry that I raved about on it's own thread, another of my favorites from this year so far. Jim Lauderdale & The Dream Players - Honey Songs. He's one of the best songwriters around and get the Dream Players......helping out on harmony vocals, Emmylou, Buddy Miller, Patty Loveless. And the band........James Burton, Al Perkins, Garry Tallent, and from Elvis' 70's band (besides James Burton) Ron Tutt on drums and Glen D Hardin on piano.

Nice little band.

Little Feat Willin'

I been warped by the rain, driven by the snow
I'm drunk and dirty don't ya know, and I'm still, willin'
Out on the road late at night, Seen my pretty Alice in every head light
Alice, Dallas Alice

I've been from Tuscon to Tucumcari
Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made
Driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed
And if you give me: weed, whites, and wine
And you show me a sign
I'll be willin', to be movin'

I've been kicked by the wind, robbed by the sleet
Had my head stoved in, but I'm still on my feet and I'm still... willin'
Now I smuggled some smokes and folks from Mexico
Baked by the sun, every time I go to Mexico, and I'm still

And I been from Tuscon to Tucumcari
Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made
Driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed
And if you give me: weed, whites, and wine
And you show me a sign
I'll be willin', to be movin

Then you are more of a traditional jazz girl, eh, bluesbaby? I love Shamarr's cd AND I love the brass band blowouts!

They are somewhat of a new discovery for me, and I realize that I am late to that party, but am very happy to have found them. Upon first few listens, I think Van's new disc is pretty lame and tired. I had high hopes after Magic Time a few years ago, which I really liked and thought was somewhat of a return to great form for him. Pretty disappointed with this new one so far though.

I finally got to listen to Shamarr Allen, Meet Me on Frenchman Street. Awesome. THAT is EXACTLY what I was expecting last year when I bought tickets to the brass band blowout at Howling Wolfs. (A bit of a disappointment there.) But Shamarr is terrific! His sound just SCREAMS New Orleans!!
I agree the wolf was not a good vibe for us. We should of stayed at rock&bowl that night! oh well live and learn "if ya have n a good time don't l!eave

Yep, indeed!

So her solo stuff is good enough to recommend? I met her some 20 years ago when I was fortunate to attend one of JT's private rehearsals in a barn on Martha's Vineyard before he and the band were going out on their summer tour in support of his then recently-released Never Die Young. When James introduced her to me he was typically self-deprecating, noting that she was a recording artist in her own right, and that I could find both of their albums in the bargain bin at the record stores. I think I freaked her out a bit when I told her that I recognized her from the group photo on the inside sleeve of his In the Pocket album and recalled exactly where she was in the photo. I recall that she was very nice nonetheless. I never checked out her solo stuff though. Is the album you listed the one that you would recommend? Any others?

Always thought she had a great voice as one of that great group of back-up singers for James. It's cool that you got to meet her! It must have made you melt, 'cos she's also kinda hot.

I like her solo stuff. It's not earth-shattering or some new type of music you've never heard. If you like a great sultry female voice, this is for you. Her first album has a great version of 'Ooh Child' that's worth the price. The title of that album is "Just a Stone's Throw Away". I'm less enamored with her second, but it's still okay. It's called "Wild Child". I'm not sure it's on any CD other than the Japanese pressing I have. "That's the Way It Is" is probably the most balanced of all her works. Her version of "Into the Mystic" is enough to..... Well anyway, let's just say I like it.

Lee Dorsey - Give it Up

I heard that tune for the first time about a month ago and can't get it out of my head. It's getting heavy rotation at the casa. If you have itunes, check it out for .99, I'll give it the McG guarantee to funk you down!

(Can you dig it? Give it up to give it up)
You've been wastin' too much time

Patiently I've waited, baby, waited just for you

You got your thing together, & I can't wait too
& that's the very reason I'm stickin' here with you

Thanks Stax. I've always liked her voice too, and I like the originals of those tunes so I'll check out her covers of them.

She was very cool to meet. For some reason I remember that we talked about skiing. She was definitely attractive, but the funny thing is I recall thinking that she looked a lot older, and much different, than the photo of her from the inside sleeve of In the Pocket (I remembered her from the photo primarily because there was a name/figure chart included with the photo, and I remembered the position of the figure associated with her name). I was a college student at the time, bartending and running around on the beaches, and she looked like an "older woman"--albeit a very attractive one, like a friend's hot mom. In short, I was looking for girls, and she was a very experienced woman for whom I would have been mere child's play. In retrospect, I was pretty much clueless.

Hothouse Flowers - Best Of. How this band did not become huge I'll never figure out. I saw them on their first tour and it was one of the greatest shows I ever saw. 1 album out and they played about 2 1/2 hours. Irish band, and if you like Van and that sort of stuff, you should love these guys. Still around and still playing. And they do the greatest version of 'I Can See Clearly Now' I've ever heard. Wailing sax, gospel backing vocals, just brilliant.

Carla Olson & Mick Taylor - Too Hot For Snakes plus. Carla used to be in a band called The Textones (anybody remember them), a great little roots rock n roll band that got great press and not many sales. She met Mick Taylor after that and her liner notes kind of sum it up.

"Mick and I knew we wanted a particular sound and attitude: loud, rockin', tough, bluesy. So we assembled a great band of friends and chose a combination of songs including a few of Mick's plus some Rolling Stones numbers as well. We rehearsed for a week, played a warm up gig out of town and then cut the album in one night at the Roxy."

She describes it well, her songs rock, and from the Stones they do 'Silver Train', 'You Gotta Move' and a #$%%ing KILLER version of 'Sway'. And one of the friends in the band is the wonderful Ian McLagan on keyboards. Good stuff.

Mick Ronson - Heaven And Hull. The last record before he passed away way too early, recorded after he found out about his illness, with help from Bowie, Joe Elliot, Chrissie Hynde, and John Mellencamp. Great, great guitar player and arranger and from what I've read, a quite humble man. Would take the time to write back to fans or even call them while on the road to thank them for letters and such even at the height of his career. Here's a nice piece

Hey Scoop and Sissy....there's an excellent interview with Ry at our local public radio station CKUA at www.ckua.com. Holger Petersen from Stony Plain Records and host of "Natch'l Blues" interviews Ry over the course of his two hour show with some tunes from I, Flathead included. Go to www.ckua.com and click on the audio archives icon in the top right corner. It sounded to me like Ry got right into this, as did Holger...fascinating stuff...

And I have lots of Ry vinyl to dust off too! ;)

Here's the description:

On the July 5th, 2008 edition of Natch'l Blues, host Holger Petersen presented an interview he'd recorded with Ry Cooder in his Santa Monica, California studio. In a wide ranging interview, Holger also played music from various aspects of Cooder's career, with an emphasis on the new disc I, Flathead. The feature stretched over the two hours of Natch'l Blues, and is presented here in two parts.

I saw that Mac was pining away for his copy of Burrito Deluxe in an old post that PC resurrected, so I figured I'd try to hunt down some Flying Burrito Brothers on disc to burn and send to him, as I only had it on vinyl. I found this great anthology of their first three albums, including Burrito Deluxe, and I can't believe how tremendous it is. I had almost forgotten how essential Gram Parsons was to pioneering the entire genre of country-rock. While I was at it, I also updated from vinyl to disc for the Byrd's Sweetheart of the Rodeo, and I've been listening to both for days now. Mac will have them soon too, along with some others. I can't wait to thank him for encouraging me to rediscover how great The Flying Burrito Brothers, and especially Gram Parsons, were. Amazing that it was almost four decades ago that he blazed the trail for the entire genre in which bands like Wilco are only now gaining wide recognition.

Lit - if you have an 'extensive' collection of vinyl - I would recommend getting one of those recording devices that helps put that vinyl on cd.

I've been considering that. Can go straight to computer, then to iPod. I think I had an exchange with someone here about that a while ago when I was first trying to find out the basic information and recommendations. I'll have to search for that.

"The Truth According to Ruthie Foster" picked it up today when I ran into B&N to get my daughter a "Hannah Montana the Movie Soundtrack". I was flabbergastered to find that the Ruthie Foster cd cost me $2 LESS than that other thing........what is the world coming to?

I tried it recently with a VERY economical usb turntable that a friend purchased for about $100. The sound was not the quality level that a serious music collector would approve of - but I have to tell you - I was very ,very impressed with the quality and ease of operation at that cost.

Just caught Jackson Browne's song "Where were you?" from a shuffled set on my iTunes.

Kinda spooky, considering some recent posts on the bored.

Where were you when it blew from every direction
Where were you when the promise was made
To return and rebuild
To restore to its people
The city that gave us the first American music
The true inspiration and the freedom to use it
Where will we find it again if we lose it
And where will we be
If we ever cease to love
If we ever cease to love
