a friend was recently surprised to discover that I like Led Zeppelin. he thought I was a folky kind of guy. little did he know that I grew up with Deep Purple, Slade, Jethro Tull, The Who, Uriah Heep, Buffalo and even Black Sabbath... but i digress. here's what's new on my playlist...
Ray Charles - really! a bunch of his old stuff. loved the movie.
Dr John - as above. a man and a pianoand a whole lot of attitude.
"Behind the Parade" - Tommy Keene - jangly 8o's guitar stuff. think Matthew Sweet or the Jayhawks. saw him live in Raleigh NC once...
"Swarthmoor" - Pete Morton - UK folkie. think Mick Thomas
"Lady" - Lady - modern take on classic soul music
"Down the River of Golden Dreams" - Okkervil River - gnarly but sweet, folky-country Texans... click the link for some free music too!
"Alice's Restaurant" - Arlo Guthrie - yep, the album with that very long song...
"The Execution of All Things" - Rilo Kiley - Jenny Lewis and friends' play poppy-countryish-folk
"You Are Everything" - Steve Kilbey & Martin Kennedy - a cracker new album of mystery and intimacy
"Screws" - Nils Frahm - ambient piano - FREE
"The Invisible Way" - Low - stunning new stripped-back album from the dour Minnesotans...
