This is her performing the first song from that new record:

I have posted about this in another thread but, yeah this album does deserve its own thread. It's currently vying (with the Barry Adamson record) for my #1 of the year. A great, great record. Doubt that I'll be at the Hideout, but maybe there is a small, small chance that some fluke will happen. Thanks for the heads-up!

Speedy recovery, Slim.

I loved the Young Fresh Fellows back in the day. And, when I hear them now, I still love 'em. (I really need to replace my old, lost copies of their albums.)

That first track is by Catherine Irwin from Freakwater, another brilliant writer. And, Kevin, you will not be sorry.

I was just looking at the site today and really appreciating how good the tunes are there. Thought that I would revive this thread. (If it was ever alive in the first place.) Let me know if you check it out, and what you think of the songs and whatnot. And no, there are none if my own songs on there. This is not a self-promo kinda thing, just a place to share music that we love.

Just picked up that Kelly Hogan album. Does it live up to the 4.5-star review that I quoted above? Can't really say after only one listen, but I can say that it is goddamn good and I am glad that I grabbed it. We'll see how it grows with me. I can see it growing into a 4.5-star album. For sure. Should make my year-end top 5, even in a year this strong.

So did I until I got married.

HEADS UP: Neil is being interviewed by Terry Gross on Fresh Air tomorrow (6/6). I know what I will be streaming.

Ladies and gents, One of the best, most-underrated frontmen in rock history: Larry Damore: Met him at one of my old band's gigs back in the 90's. Turned out to be one of the nicest, most-modest guys I've ever met. Even shy: the opposite of what I saw on stage. Larry Fucking Damore, man. Goddamn Pegboy rips it up.

This one comes out today and I am really looking forward to picking it up:

I've heard that Clocks song. And I love it. I just checked out this vid and I gotta post it, even though most of you have probably heard the song many times. It still kills.
