  5. Of older bands they were in, they've apparently pared it down to Tender Mercies and Sordid Humor. The rest, they went with all the "big guns" so to speak.
  6. It's a record of covers, mostly of bands they were all in as they grew up in the rock n roll scene. So, mostly unknown songs.
  7. Over time I've come to feel that 'Lost in Space' is as good as 'Bachelor #2' and sometimes surpasses its genius. Per her FB page, she completed her new record a couple of weeks ago, finishing up with a duet with James Mercer of The Shins. If I had to rank'em : Bachelor #2 / Lost In Space Smilers Magnolia Whatever Forgotten Arm I'm With Stupid

  10. Here's a Dylan two-disc starter collection I put together a few years ago for a friend looking to find out what all the fuss was about. DISC 1 Girl From The North Country Don't Think Twice, It's All Right Masters Of War The Times They Are A Changin' Only A Pawn In Their Game One Too Many Mornings Subterranean Homesick Blues She Belongs To Me Love Minus Zero/No Limit Maggie's Farm It's All Over Now, Baby Blue Like a Rolling Stone Tombstone Blues It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry Ballad of a Thin Man Highway 61 Revisited Desolation Row Positively Fourth Street DISC 2 Odds
  11. I put this comp together a few years ago when Impasse, in my opinion was not the equal of Rick's other records. I've since changed my stance a bit and have warmed up to some of the songs, including a couple you mentioned. As for Bloomed, both songs you mentioned for anyone else would be a career best. They're that good. Also, I do concur that it's impossible to scale Rick's oeuvre down to a mere 24 or thereabouts. I've been a fan since I say him fronting The Doubters in Berkeley circa '95 or so. Do You Wanna Go Somewhere from Sir Dark Invader vs. The Fanglord ? Great record. I need to revis

  13. http://www.aquariumdrunkard.com/2011/05/09/richard-buckner-the-ad-interview/ Aquarium Drunkard favorite Richard Buckner is one of America’s greatest living singer-songwriters, but he’s been awfully quiet for a while now. We recently caught up with Buckner, prior to his show, in the parking lot of The EARL in Atlanta. Buckner gave us the skinny on his silence and the lowdown on the his new record, Our Blood, due out August 2nd on Merge Records. AD: It’s been five years since you’ve put out a record. What have you been up to? Richard Buckner: Well, you know, for years I was putting out a r
  14. How can I argue. It's in my Top 100 all time. Master'effin' piece. I would rank the rest as follows : Devotion & Doubt Bloomed The Hill Dents & Shells Impasse Meadow

  20. I'm wondering what my fellow Pollardians think of the new Boston Spaceships rekkid,Our Cubehouse Still Rocks ?
  21. This record is truly fantastic, chock full of great songs, harmonies & vibe. It also stands shoulder to shoulder with ANY of the so-called classics of the alt-country (or whatever you want to call it) genre. RIYL - modern day Everly Brothers, Bakersfield Sound, Good songs
  22. Thanks for the recommendation. I gave Disc One a couple of spins last night and I'm enjoying it quite a bit. It definitely has that Everly's/Jayhawks/Bakersfield thang going on. Interesting how this predates Tomorrow The Green Grass by a couple of years.
