8/22: Gurf Morlix – Crossroads (2009)

A veteran of American music and long-time resident of Austin, Texas, Morlix put out a stellar tune that's good all the way to the last line. And that last line's a good one.

GUEST POST: 3 ALBUMS FROM OTIS GIBBS:

GUEST POST: 3 ALBUMS FROM OTIS GIBBS: Note from AIV : Otis approached me about this post and I thought it was a great idea and I hope to make it a reoccurring piece here on 9B. Hope you enjoy. As a traveling musician, I'm given countless CDs from people I meet on the road. I have no interest in being a music critic, but I try my best to listen to as many as I can. In the spirit of turning people on to good music, this is a list of three [...]

Music Review: Indie Round-Up – Gurf Morlix, Carey Ott, Putumayo's Bossa Nova

Carey Ott's new 20-song opus, almost an hour and quarter of genre-coasting pop-rock, feels like a concept album—except the concept is the human experience.

BLAZE FOLEY: THE MUSIC YOU MIGHTA MADE

BLAZE FOLEY: THE MUSIC YOU MIGHTA MADE "There's kind of two Blazes. A lot of people saw one or the other. There was the wild one. . . . And then there was the gentle, loving, caring one. I got to know both." ~ Townes Van Zandt Over the years of doing ninebullets, I've had the occasional emailer ask me if I'd ever heard of Blaze Foley. One was even so kind as to email me a collection of Blaze's songs. These emails were the first I'd ever heard of the man, but it's been [...]

She's a River: Gurf Morlix

I think I was first drawn to this singer because he reminded me of Tom Waits. After downloading and listening to a few songs, I realized his voice was different somehow, maybe slower, maybe darker. This song is from Last Exit to Happyland, released earlier this year. That is Patty Griffin with him. MP3 File yousendit

Gurf Morlix - Last Exit To Happyland (Rootball, 2009)

Gurf Morlix Austin'in gururlarından. Folk'u alternatif bir yorumla bize sunan, bununla kalmayıp haddinden fazla enstrüman çalabilen yetenekli bir isim. Aslında New York doğumlu ama sonradan Austin, Texas'a taşınmış ve adı orayla özdeşleşmiş. Bugüne kadar haberi yoktu kendisinden diyeceğim. Evet valla öyle. Ama yeni albümü sayesinde tanıştım. Geçmişe dönük tematik bir çalışma da yaptım. İlginçtir, tek başına [...]

Gurf Morlix: Last Exit to Happyland

Gurf Morlix: Last Exit to Happyland Quietly intense, rough-voiced, sweet-sounding Americana Gurf Morlix has produced many of the who's who of Americana, including Lucinda Williams, Robert Earl Keen, and Ray Wylie Hubbard. He's added guitar to works by Buddy Miller, Jim Lauderdale, Peter Case and others, and crafted a low-key solo career starting with 2000's Toad of Titicaca . Morlix sings with a bit of Buddy Miller's moan and a bit of Tom Waits' grit, but his confessional exhalations are more the parched tone of a dusty back road than the worn sidewalks of the [...]

July Mix

July Mix It is time to post another gosh-damned mix, it seems. It's kind of hard to keep up with all the decent music of the world, so there are only 9 songs this time around. But they're all pretty good, so that's a plus. I wonder if anyone's noticed that all of these mix intros sound pretty much exactly the same, but really they're just meant to be filler to push the songs past whatever ridiculous image I decide to add. This time, it's Happycat! Abigail Grush - Solitude Is Useless - (MP3, 3 [...]

Gurf Morlix (Lucinda Williams, Robert Earl Keen, Slaid Cleaves) "Diamonds To Dust"

Gurf Morlix performs for mvyradio On The Road @ SXSW 07
Whether he likes it or not Gurf Morlix will probably be forever known as the mastermind producer behind Lucinda William's early records (also records by Blaze Foley, Slaid Cleaves, Tom Russell, Robert Earl Keen, etc. etc). His own solo career has been stuck in the Americana niche, a niche that I would argue has the lowest CD sales of any other music genre (besides jazz). I don't have any empirical evidence for that statement, just my own observations about CD sales among this talented group of musicians. Gurf's new record, Diamonds To Dust , has [...]
