Greetings From Louisiana
Part IV of my ongoing 50 states project in which I am marrying my interest in retro travel-postcards with music indigenous to each state. Today we find ourselves in Louisiana, home to one of my favorite cities, New Orleans. Since 1995 I have visited the Crescent city at least once a year -- always drawn back by the medley of music, food, and it's indescribably rich culture. The city is an original . . .

Cover Wars VIII :: Hey Jude (Soul Style)
Recorded in 1969 at Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, AL, Pickett was aided by (a then unknown session player) Duane Allman. Allman's nasty guitar at the end of the track was a sign of great things to come. I'm not posting the Beatles original, but I assume most have it committed to memory anyhow.DOWNLOAD:MP3: Wilson Pickett - Hey Jude (beatles cover)

The Brokedown :: The Dutchman’s Gold
We are somewhere in the hills and canyons that make up Los Angeles. That much is true. The lonesome harmonies, light organ fills and pedal-steel accompaniment remind us so. But make no mistake, this is clear Pop territory and in the best sense of the word. Where Pop is defined by Josh Rouse, A.C. Newman, Britt Daniels and the like. The Brokedown's self-released debut EP, "The Dutchman's Gold," is a modern take on . . .

Steve Earle :: Magnolia Electric Company

Sounds Like Fall :: The Wolf Is At The Door
September of 2005. With less than four months left, it's shaping up to be a pretty strong year for new music. If you read here with any regularity you'll notice I love the quiet as well as the loud. Such is the case with Sounds Like Fall's debut release The Wolf is at the Door. A vehicle for midwestern folkie, Joe Young, the album seamlessly . . .

Rolling Stones: Vintage Rarities
With the Stones on (another) tour supporting their latest album, it only seemed appropriate to post some Mick 'n Keef material. But don't worry, the below isn't from their new album as I'm neither a sadist nor a masochist. No, instead check out these rarities of excellent vintage Stones' goodness.DOWNLOAD:
