Today is slushy and grey and cold, and twenty degrees or so. In four days I will be on Kauai and I just keep telling myself that when the wind smacks me in the face and takes my breath away (and not in a Top Gun soundtrack kind of way). I am so very tired of having cold hands all the time . Here are two links worth a click today: --We love Nick Hornby and the way he writes about music, this is a documented fact. Check his list of favorite songs from 2007 . [...]
(as featured on This Week's Finds , Dec. 30-Jan. 5) "In the Rain" - Marqui Adora Marqui Adora is a quartet from Miami who do not otherwise sound like this. And while there's nothing wrong with the early U2- and Cure-inspired material the band more typically produces, I find myself smitten by the easy-going, old-fashioned swing of this unabashedly tuneful little song. Sprung off a nostalgic descending guitar lick and pop's most basic chord progression, "In the Rain" succeeds to a great extent [...]
Modeling the new Grados and flirting with Phil. Tart. What a strange but affecting little accumulation we have today. Classics, newbies, newbies by classics, space cadets, a b-boy. Best just to listen, I think. (Some visitors have wondered how many different ways I'll contrive to say nothing. You have no idea, my unknown buds. I have not yet begun to say nothing.) The Charlatans - You Cross My

Christmas comes early for Okkervil River fans. In the spirit of the season, the band has made a special "mix tape", consisting of eight cover songs and one Okkervil original recorded whilst on tour over the last couple years, available to download for free off their website. Featuring songs by John Cale, Jimmy Webb and Serge Gainsbourg, if you don't know the originals - which I'm not too proud to admit I don't - Will Sheff has provided detailed liner notes explaining why these songs were worthy of reinterpretation. Yes, liner notes. [...]

There's a pretty cool and informative article in the WIRED blog today about how "Vinyl May Be [the] Final Nail in CD's Coffin." While I don't think this is true (I believe vinyl will continue to be preferred mainly by hobbyists and purists), the author raises some very interesting points regarding the resurgence of vinyl purchases in recent years. Although I don't like to read stories that perpetuate the auxiliary "records sound better than CDs" argument, recognizing the "loudness war" and mentioning the increasingly available vinyl/MP3 bundles are the most important aspects of the article. For me, having a tangible [...]
Looks like the Jukebox is stuck on repeat a bit today. The 60's were a time when bands played covers so often that they became veritable standards. A few songs were particular to the garage set (think Louie, Louie/ Money) but Buffy Sainte-Marie's Cod'ine became a crossover from garage on into psych mainly due to its heavily drug oriented lyrics and story of redemption. Despite her original being a very strident folk song, it did lend itself well to harder interpretations and still continues to be a favorite today (I last recall Oakley Hall doing a pretty great version). So [...]
BY ANDY VIHSTADT E=CD^2 The Eels are kicking off 2008 time-capsule style. Along with the Essential Eels Vol. 1 2CD/DVD greatest hits collection, the band will releasing Useless Trinkets (also 2CD/DVD), an all-inclusive anthology of B-sides and rarities that makes the cache of import singles I've been collecting just that -- useless trinkets. Get the inside story here . Both are scheduled for January 15. In the meantime, [...]

The Charlatans have made an mp3 of their new single available to download for free at XFM's site . The band will even be giving away free downloads of their new album early next year! This new song is quite a bit different from the band's last few albums and kinda sounds like New Order musically and vocally. I've posted it for download here because the XFM link is slow as hell.

Four decades ago, legions of young people trekked to San Francisco and its famed Haight Asbury district, the epicenter for the youth-driven counterculture revolution that was transforming American culture. They came for peace, politics, community, love...and they came for the music, the most enduring legacy of that very special place and time. It has proven to be the element that really tells the true story of San Francisco in the 1960s. Love Is The Song We Sing : San Francisco Nuggets 1965-1970 is a [...]

The Delamere forest is one of our favourite places in the country - we once spent a happy afternoon (and then a slightly panicky evening) getting lost within its leafy remit. Our delight in all things Tim Burgess is well noted here, of course. So what could be nicer than bringing the two together? The Charlatans are playing a gig in the forest on June 15th, as part of a Forestry Commission initiative to promote concerts in woodlands. (No, we're not quite sure of the link, either, but it's a lovely idea.) [...]
