I love The Breeders. After the Pixies disbanded it was not Frank Black's career I followed with great interest, but Kim Deals. Austin's Yellow Fever sound a bit like Pod era Breeders, and "Katcatcher," the first song off their self released EP, had it's hooks in . . .

Much of my time spent with the silver screen this past year has been with documentary films. This is both due to the fact my wife has been working closely with documentary filmmakers here in Los Angeles, and more importantly, there have been some outstanding/groundbreaking works in the documentary film world of late.

This being so, news of director Michael Tully's new ducumentary chronicling Dave Berman's Silver Jews is the best joos news since catching them . . .

Last year Filter magazine had a light bulb of an idea getting native Kentucky songwriters/actors Dwight Yoakam and Will Oldham to interview one another. Upon seeing the artwork for the feature I knew I had to scan it for you good folks to see with your own eyes. Awesome, no? Being a huge fan of both, this joint interview, entitled 'Kings At Night" was a real treat. Unfortunately I do not see . . .

Show notes: You’ll notice a happy accident with Neko’s voice on “Things That Scare Me”. The vocals are slowed down to thick mollasses rendering it’s sound to that of a man singing. I think it sounds . . .

I did not have the pleasure of catching Tony Dekker's Great Lake Swimmers live this past year, but a friend was kind enough to send me a copy of their tour-only Hands In Dirty Ground EP.I have posted on Great Lake Swimmers many times, but for those unfamiliar, imagine a hybrid of an early, pensive Neil Young crossed with My Morning Jacket at their most subdued.

You could hardly fault the casual Elephant Six fan for being under the impression The Apples In Stereo had long ago disbanded; after all, five years is a long time for an artist or group to go without a record. But here we are in 2007 and Robert Schneider and company have returned with New Magnetic Wonder, and it . . .

I would like nothing more than to share with you the new Bill Callahan track "Diamond Dancer" off the single I received in the mail from Drag City a couple of weeks ago; but being a single release that would entirely defeat the purpose. So, if you're a

Rickie Lee Jones has just released a new album, The Sermon On Exposition Boulevard, which also marks her first for her new home on New West Records. From the onset of her long career, Jones has been both a musical chameleon and rogue champion of genre exploration.

Who's pouring, because this collection deserves a drink. Nashville's own original psyche-pop weirdo John D. Loudermilk gets the treatment here on this 2006 twenty seven track anthology. Regarded as an accomplished sixties Nashville songwriting fixture, it turns out Loudermilk was as at home with a sitar as a banjo, and left to his own . . .
