nodep5 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I don't know about ya'll, and since I don't see much discussion about some of these releases, I guess I'm the only one excited. Gave my first spin to Ready For the Flood this morning and overall I enjoyed it. Upon first listen, I love the vibe, and about 5 songs sound really strong and the rest are extremly pleasant. Beside the chorus to Bicycle I'm digging it. I'm looking forward to Ben Kweller's Changing Horses next week. Heard a few of the tracks live on Daytrotter session. It is being reported as a country record. I've like the majority of Ben's stuff so that sounds like music to my ears. Vetiver Tight Knit. Anyone heard the whole thing yet? Just heard the first single and it is smooth and sweet. Anyway, Enought about me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
remphish1 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I'm looking forward to the Kweller record too! See him in Feb...Will get Olson/Louris this week and I can't wait for that too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mystik Spiral Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 The BK record is indeed very country. It's pretty good, a new direction for Ben, so it's hard to compare to his other releases. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

myboyblue Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I haven't heard anything from Vetiver's new one but really like Ready for the Flood. I haven't listened to it enough to know how it will stick with me but first few spins were pleasant enough. As for Ben Kweller's, it the first album of his that I've liked.

uwmryan Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Changing Horses is a great record. I've also been listening to his cover of "From Hank To Hendrix" non-stop - take a listen: http://www.fuelfriendsblog.com/2009/02/02/...some-new-songs/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nodep5 Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 Changing Horses 2nd listen right now. I'm digging this album, but I think the first song Gypsy Rose is an interesting cut for the first track. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Calexico Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Love the Vetiver and Louris/Olson albums. Haven't heard the other one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Serak_the_Preparer Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 The BK record is indeed very country. It's pretty good, a new direction for Ben, so it's hard to compare to his other releases. I have only heard a few tracks, but they don't seem that country to me. Anyone else think that Sawdust Man sounds like a Beatles outtake? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
