'Cause Dylan wrote it?

Happy birthday, bp!

Losers!

From wikipedia:

"John Hall (born July 23, 1948) is currently the Congressman for New York's 19th congressional district in the United States. He was a rock musician who co-founded the 1970s band Orleans."

Yup.

In other news...

Two Cow Garage - III

I'm enjoying this.

SIRIUS-ly?

Haha...ha....err...

will johnson.vultures await

Great album.

Dolorean--"You Can't Win"

Great album.

NP:

Nice. Thanks....will set the DVR.

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but Son Volt will be performing "The Picture" on NBC's Late Night with Conan O'Brien tonight (Thursday, March 1).

I've been listening to this a lot over the last few weeks. Did you know he's best pals with Jay Bennett?

Also, check out the four free live mp3s at Daytrotter, including a cover of "Cocksucker Blues."

Yeah, that's a nice EP. They played "Cocksucker Blues" when I saw them a few months back...and it was quite excellent. Thanks for the link.

NP:

Justin Rutledge - Don

Jayzuz, I was just gonna post

 

 

Bought it a while ago but didn't get a chance to listen. I was driving to Markham last week, threw it on and low and behold there is Mary-Margaret O'Hara on a track.

 

So, how is the new one?

Its really good. Its a very laid back album that I've really been enjoying it a lot lately. I'm pretty new to him, so I'm not familiar with his first album (though I actually ordered it a couple of days ago on the strength of the one I have). What do you think of No Never Alone?

His voice and style remind me quite a bit of Ryan Adams. More Heartbreaker-era Adams than anything else, I'd say. And this album is a lot more consistent in quality than what I've come to expect from RA of late.

All in all - good stuff.

NP:

I liked Okemah, but I honestly don't have super high hopes for the new one. Plus it sounds like the intial reactions are a bit mixed. I guess I'm just not in a big rush to check it out.

NP:

I am just hoping for some more Bai Ling in later episodes.

never forget the DJ & Bird hooking up against the Pistons

Now there's a steal by Bird! Underneath to DJ! He lays it up and in!!

My dad was at that game...

Now you've done it. Oh well.

Birmingham Tonight is so great, though. But I think the actual title is Hurricanes and Hand Grenades. Anyway, that's some white soul right there.

hmmm, i think i am going to refrain from listening for now.

kamikaze hearts.oneida road - if you have not listened to this record yet you need to!

Yeah. Probably worth waiting, I think, as the tunes I heard sound like they are probably demos or rough versions. Still good, though. And, yeah...Oneida Road is an excellent album.

NP:

Marah - Kids in Philly

New solo Jason Isbell on the myspace page. Great shit.

Yeah...I was listening to that yesterday. Good stuff. I don't think its his actual myspace page, though. I'm pretty sure someone has a copy and has leaked a few tunes.

And, oddly enough...I am reminded a bit of Private Pyle in Full Metal Jacket
