While listening to the "Colin Meloy Sings Morrisey" ep I got interested in the originals I hadn't heard in years. Here are a few tracks he covers found on various albums, most succinctly on the mostly B-side compilation My Early Burglary Years.DOWNLOAD:

Part V of my ongoing 50 states project in which I am marrying my interest in retro travel-postcards with music indigenous to each state. Every Thursday like clockwork I check WQFS Mayhem's blog to see what J's radio show consisted of the night before. It's both inspiring and a tease as it's a North Carolina based show, and . . .

Angels of Light & Akron/Family
Angels of Light & Akron/Family A couple of weeks before I took some vacation during the Christmas holidays I received a copy of the Angels of Light & Akron/Family album from Young God Records. The break proved to be a great time to soak up a new album. The beauty of this partnership is that Akron/Family, while completely unique and original fronting . . .

Chris Robinson :: New Earth Mud
January 2006: With The Black Crowes back together, it seems appropriate to highlight Robinson's first solo album -- 2002's New Earth Mud. Tapping a different musical vein than become a member or log in.
Alejandro Escovedo :: Bourbonitis Blues
"Bourbonitis Blues was recorded straight up, no chaser, (in Chicago, Austin, and Chapel Hill) in down home style -- this is Alejandro and his "classical glam" Orchestra at their finest: off the cuff, loose and tight, and reflective of their incredible live shows. The covers range from the achingly languid "Pale Blue Eyes", featuring Kelly Hogan (ex-Jody Grind, ex . . .

Steely Dan :: Live, PBS January 2000
This is the second live set I have uploaded and posted here on the Drunkard. The first being the excellent James Booker 1978 Montreux Jazz Festival bootleg. Look for these uploads to be a semi-regular feature in the future. A little history: In early 2000 Steely Dan rose like a phoenix from the ashes and delivered become a member or log in.

Neal Casal :: Leaving Traces
With music, often times, one good thing leads to another. This was the case with how I came to discover Neal Casal's music via Ryan Adams. Presently living in New York City filling in on guitar duties for Adams' band The Cardinals, I was initially surprised to learn Casal had a good 6+ solo albums under his belt and a super-devoted fan base.

Nic Garcia :: The Desperate Ones
Opening with the atmospheric "Song One," Nic Garcia's The Desperate Ones builds like a slow burn. Twenty-first century folk tales of the slo-core variety, Garcia walks in stride with Conor Oberst in his folkier moments, bar Oberst's acquired-taste vocal stylings.
