A longish shuffle today - so I will dispense with pleasantries and unpleasantries as well....
Shuffle - after the jump
"The Wylie Coyote Cliffs" and "Bob Newhart" by Darrin Bradbury (from NEW!!!!The Almost Great Crepe's. Man! What a great way to start the shuffle... a pair of truly great story-songs from new Nashville resident Darrin Bradbury. I hope all my Nashville music friends will check out this music and support his music. Nashville is a songwriting town, and there are tons of amazing songwriters here, but there is always room for more great ones, and Darrin Bradbury is a great one.)
"Fall Asleep" by Jars of Clay (Noisetrade Eastside Manor Session. The song comes from the band's twelfth studio album Inland. The Eastside Manor Session doesn't seem to available, but the single version of this song is up now - with all donations going to support relief efforts in the Philippines )
"Fake Palindromes" by Andrew Bird (from Andrew Bird and the Mysterious Production of Eggs. A delightful tune with really disturbing lyrics.)
"I Can't Wait" by Star and Micey (from the I Can't Wait EP. A brilliant song by this brilliant band from Memphis.)
"Last Goodbye" by The Coal Men (from Escalator. Another great song from this awesome album that I was introduced to during an amazing night of music at the 5 Spot back in September.)
"Life's a Gas" by T. Rex (from Electric Warrior. Yes, it is.)
"More the Man I Used to Be" by The Tremolo Beer Gut (from Nous Sommes The Tremolo Beer Gut...Qui Le Fuck Etes Vous. Okay so how did I not know about this band? I grabbed this off this month's Feel Bad for You Mixtape. Here's some info (via Lastfm: "They love tremolo, they love beer and they’ve got guts! The Tremolo Beer Gut draws inspirations from the ultra cool rough twangy guitar sound of 50’es and 60’es surf as well as the great film music of Mancini, Barry and Moricone. TBG has made it their style to use the same cover-photo for all their releases, they just change the color and design a little bit. As they say: “You can’t improve on perfection - and by the way: when you’re drunk, it’s easier to remember the color of the sleeve than the name of the record!”
The band was formed in 1998 by Sune Wagner (The Raveonettes) and Yebo (Jesper Reginal - Thau/ Crunchy Frog Records) “Jengo” (Jens Erik Lembcke) (ex-Trains and Boats and Planes) and Per Sunding (Eggstone).")
"KidGrownUp" (feat. JD) (prod. G. Money) by Christian Robins (from his KidGrownUp mixtape. The title track... Dig it! Really!)
"Lost Innocent World" by Gogol Bordello (from Pura Vida Conspiracy. Some awesomeness which this New York based Gypsy Punk artist. We grabbed this off an ATO Records Sampler)
"Smile" by Andrew Ferris (from Yellow Lorry. A great cheery Pop song. You know... Pop is a good way.)
"Ooby Dooby" by Creedence Clearwater Revival (from Cosmo's Factory. How 'bout this CCR cover of the Roy Orbison hit from their 1970 5th album)
"Judging You" by TimLee3 (from Devil's Rope. Hell yeah! "Maybe I shouldn't be judging you, but that don't mean that it ain't true.")
"Goodbye Summer" by Jonny Fritz (from Dad Country. The artist formerly known as Jonny Corndawg. Oh man I love this song. In 2012 while still billed as Jonny Corndawg, Fritz recorded an solo, a cappella song from inside a drainage pipe for Couch by Couchwest. His 2013 submission - as Jonny Fritz - was from Andrew Combs' kitchen floor. Yeah, he's that cool.)
"That's What I Want for Christmas" by Annie Sellick (from Let's Make a Christmas Memory. Another track from this album. This song - a cover of a jazz ballad features noted Nashville jazz pianist Joe Davidian).
"Loose Kites in Harbor" by Skeletons in the Piano (from Please Don't Die. Our 2012 Reader's Poll - Band of the Year - upstate New Yorkers SITP released one of our favorite albums of the year back in April or so. Today also happens to the birthday of SITP dancer Katarra Peterson - so Happy Birthday Katarra!)
