Believe it or not, Mad Mackerel has been around for more than five years now. During that time we've posted more than 4,000 times, and offered more than 5,000 songs for your listening pleasure. And more than three quarters of a million people have paid MM a visit during our lifetime on Google's godawful blogspot and since April 2010 on WordPress. We asked some of the regular MM contributors to give us their top twenty songs since MM first went live and we're also going to give you one big mega-listing shortly, but first up with their personal [...]]]> text/html 2013-04-21T13:12:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4905730/it-came-from-the-youtubes-early-sunday-morning-edition/

My buddy Bryan (aka Autopsy IV ) not only runs one of the best music blogs on the web ( NineBullets.net ), but he also does a weekly radio show on WMNF 88.5 , a public station in his hometown of Tampa, Florida. The show streams live at 10pm Eastern every Thursday night, and you can stream or download archives of the show. He asked his friends to help promote the show, so I am hoping that some of you northerners read this post and start tuning in. Yes, he does take requests!

William Elliott Whitmore : One Mans Shame [ purchase ] For some members of my family, November 12, 2006 is an almost legendary date. On that day, I took my then 16 year old son to a show at the Bowery Ballroom in lower Manhattan. He had been jealous of the fact that I had been to some great shows there, but they were all 18 and over shows, so he couldnt come. I saw that the Bowery Ballroom was having a 16 and over show on that November [...]]]> text/html 2012-04-30T04:07:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4245835/3-tm-william-elliott-whitmore-field-songs/
William Elliott Whitmore's Iowa farmer perspective infuses darkly soulful songs with dirt underneath the fingers backbone that are delivered in an extraordinarily rich, booming cannon of a voice. Each song is a call to arms, inspring listener action and reaction. Reminds me of Jay Farrar's gift - sounding like an old soul frozen in a young man's body. Field Songs mark time like old time spirituals, songs of faith and promise sung by slaves to try and temporarily ease their burdens. The sparse instrumentation (a gently picked banjo, a barely strummed guitar) places the focus [...]]]> text/html 2012-04-09T14:28:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4187946/tonight-bluestone-lucero/
Click here to view the embedded video. Rumba Cafe manager Todd Dugan has recently branched out and started booking bigger shows at other venues under the name " Rumba Cafe Promotions ." That explains why, if you go to the Bluestone (previously BoMA) website, you'll see Lucero and Justin Townes Earle listed in the upcoming shows. JTE will have to wait till May, but today (4/9) brings Lucero to town. The band has been tapping into Memphis soul lately, but Lucero is a chameleon, so any [...]]]> text/html 2012-03-21T17:03:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4146322/william-elliott-whitmore-live-at-the-picador-9106/

So, as the New Year approaches, here are our favourite albums of 2011 for your consideration. Feel free to dispute, argue, or otherwise put us right because, if nothing else, music is as about as subjective topic as it is possible to get. Some of these may not be the "best" albums of the year as far as the critics are concerned, but that matters not, as they were the ones we enjoyed listening to most - give them a try, you might feel the same. 50 Jessica Lea Mayfield [...]]]>
