![[new] Fast Planet – These Hills](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4049763_lg.jpg)
Memphis has a strangely disjointed music scene these days , or at least as it seems to me - but I am a native Memphian and a relative outsider at times, even in my own town. Things are changing so quickly these days as I focus on working with Future Unlimited , truly the most exciting new band I've heard in years, and veer away from really writing this music blog as more than a hobby. My tastes have accrued over time & I've gravitated towards certain aspects of the music created here [...]

![[VideO] Juicy J feat. The Weeknd – Lucky Charm](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3974726_lg.jpg)
This first post of 2012 has me kind of confused: the video for Juicy J 's song "Lucky Charm" features almost four minutes of stylish interlude from The Weeknd before dropping into a track about finding "the one" and settling down. Hold up... SETTLE DOWN? JUICY???? Nah, I am not buying it! I'm not exactly sure what to think on first watch, but it's definitely a departure from what Juicy's been doing. Take a look & let me know what you think. [...]
![[Rare Radiohead?] Radiohead – Putting Ketchup In The Fridge](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3947265_lg.jpg)
So what's the deal? Is this actually an unearthed & long-missing Radiohead song, or an elaborate and brilliant hoax? On my first listen, I decided immediately that's Thom Yorke's voice and this is clearly a Radiohead song, but others have expressed doubt. Whatever this is, it's pretty lovely and might just be a brilliantly-conceived Christmas gift. Share your thoughts in the comments below & enjoy. Radiohead - Putting Ketchup In The Fridge
![[video] Elliott Smith Live at Green Street Grille c. 1997](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3946855_lg.jpg)
In 1997 , Lou Barlow was having a going away party at the Green Street Grille in Cambridge, MA. That night, there was a show, hosted by the late Billy Ruane , a champion of the Boston music scene for decades whose escapades are worthy of the term 'legendary'. What made this night special was that this show would feature an acoustic performance from a still-relatively-unknown songwriter from Portland named Elliott Smith who had been touring & performing with fellow songwriter Mary Lou Lord . Thanks [...]

My friend Marco Collins brought this Nirvana Christmas greetings video to my attention & I thought maybe I ought to share it with you. It appears they were doing this for RuPaul 's talk show on MTV in the early 902s, and a lovely version of "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" it is. Don't you kind of want "Smells Like Teen Spirit" to be the Xmas #1 in England this year? At this point, it's a strong contender, but the only way it can [...]

If news that the classic lineup of Guided By Voices - including Tobin Sprout (who hit the bricks in 1996) - were recording a new album didn't jar you to sit upright, let this notice grab hold of you: they WERE recording a new album (past-tense) and have now finished it.

![[folk] Fionn Regan – Dogwood Blossom](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3933240_lg.jpg)
I have fallen into the emotional rollercoaster of the holiday season tonight just as I was trying to climb aboard. Partially, I know it's because the holidays seem to change meaning as I get older and, partially, it's due to unrelated events of the night. I've just come from watching the final hour of This Is England '88 which is, hands down, one of the most emotionally gripping hours of television I have ever watched in my life. I don't want to give spoilers, but if you're not familiar [...]

Confirmed reports out of Nashville tell us that Dobie Gray , one of American music's most timeless voices, passed away peacefully this morning in his sleep. He was 71. No further details are available right now, but I will update this story as I learn more. A multi-dimensional performer whose work crossed decades, genres of music and artistic styles, Dobie will be most remembered for songs 'The In-Crowd', 'Loving Arms' and the unforgettable ode to rock and roll music, 'Drift Away'. I will remember him for giving me a shot as a young songwriter, [...]
