Just to say embedded media clips are on the way but tell us what we're missing out on here at AUK which we should be covering
At the moment I’m really enjoying Asleep At The Wheel’s version of Guy Clark’s “Dublin Blues”. It appeared on their “New Routes” in 2018 and there is a great live version for Paste on YouTube. Ray Benson deserves more recognition than he sometimes gets. Discuss.
I’m listening to the first couple of tracks from “Valentine” the upcoming Courtney Marie Andrews album - and seeking out the other tracks (with mixed success) on YouTube….!
Revisiting Neal Casel's wonderful "Fade Away Diamond Time" after hearing Jonathan Wilson/Hannah Cohen cover of 'Detroit or Buffalo'
The new Dream Syndicate box set of the Medicine Show album, and some stuff I don't much like for the "Can't live without" feature...
Having been to see the play recently, I have been listening to the original (Broadway) cast recording of the songs from "Stereophonic". The music was written by Will Butler (formerly of Arcade Fire) but sounds very much like mid- to late-1970s Fleetwood Mac (which I think is the intention).
I host a radio show of recently released music and on my most recent one did a political set:
Apocalypse Never - Nick Shoulders
You Ain’t Done Nothing if You Ain’t Been Called a Red - Cassie Blanton
No Kings - Jessie Welles
Outlaw Country - Dylan Earl
Maggie’s Farm - Margo Price
We the People - Billy Simons Jr
Just got copy of Nebraska box set so listening to that. This albim along with The River are my two favourite Springsteen records.
Lately I am listening (again) to the first two Whiskeytown records, and feeling very nostalgic!
I have several excellent recent releases on heavy rotation at the moment:
Meredith Moon - From Here To The Sea
Ramona and the Holy Smokes - Ramona and the Holy Smokes
Deviate - Steady Habits
Emma Swift - The Resurrection Game
Brennen Leigh - Don't You Ever Give Up On Love
Kathryn Williams - Mystery Park
So much good music coming out!
Mostly artists on the upcoming gig list. So plenty of The Dreaming Spires plays now and in the next couple of weeks including the new album and the classic Searching for the Supertruth.
New ones by Scott Ballew and the Bats
