A couple of weeks ago a friend of mine, who works in media, was good enough to score me the Starbucks exclusive Bob Dylan Live at the Gaslight 1962 album. In simple terms, it is great. If you have had some hesitation, as I initially did, check out these two sample tracks below. A great companion piece to the recent Scorcese documentary.

Great Lake Swimmers…Oh, Canada
Canada's music scene's been on steroids the past few years, as further exemplified by the sophmore release from Ontario's Great Lake Swimmers. Upon first listen, songwriter/vocalist Tony Dekker comes across as a hybrid of an early, pensive Neil Young and My Morning Jacket at their most subdued. Like My Morning Jacket, GLS use organic atmospherics to compliment their moody pallette. [The debut album was recorded in an . . .

Switching Gears :: The Jesus & Mary Chain
Switching gears here at the Drunkard, we leave the twang behind and slide over to one of my favorite (mostly) defunct groups, The Jesus & Mary Chain. Always reeking of cool, they pretty musc consistently nailed it, whatever the it happened to be, throughout their career. I was telling . . .

Patterson Hood :: Killers and Stars
"I recorded Killers and Stars, by myself, in the dining room of the house where I was living, in early March, 2001. I had just gotten divorced, was fighting with the band and a good number of my friends. I was feeling pretty freaked out and isolated and this album was my therapy. Most of the songs were within a couple of weeks old (although a couple of songs dated back quite a few years). I recorded the . . .

My Morning Jacket
My Morning Jacket, 2002. I walked out of the Roxy in Los Angeles and told my friend we had just bared witness to a true throwback to the days of the full-on rock show. All long-swinging-face-obscuring-hair, sweat, and denim. Make that double denim. Had I not known better, I would have sworn Cliff Burton was on stage right.
