E2TG 7/30/2020 - Near the End... of the Week - Sh-Boom Mix (Fly High Remix)



Be sure to "Like" Ear to the Ground on Facebook!


I am short on time and honestly not sure what to say in this space... so on we go with the music which is why all of us are here anyway!

Today, we complete our recap of this week's Featured Friday Playlist. Tomorrow being Friday, we will unveil the latest edition of our on-going project.  Songs 29-34



29. "My Love is a Hurricane" by David Ramirez 
First up, we have the title track to the brand new fifth studio album by the Austin, Texas based singer-songwriter.  Sounding good. I think I first became familiar with his music when he recorded an album at East Side Manor which was made available on Noisetrade which is now a part of Paste. 
30. "Bad Judgement Day" by John Kelly 
Next up, we have a track from In Between the latest album by Charlottesvile singer-songwriter John Kelly. The album was produced by Rusty Speidel.  Kelly is a native of Connecticut and lived in New York City before becoming a regular part of the Charlottesville singer-songwriter community.
31. "Hearts Turn Dark" by Provision 
Next up. we have the title track from the first album in seven years by Houston, Texas based darkpop band Provision. Pretty cool sounds. 
32. "Return of the Sabretooth" by ASM
Next up, we have the latest single from the European cinematic, hip-hop, funk, soul band ASM - A State of Mind.  I really dig this track. A great addition to our playlist. 
33. "Someone" by Even As We Speak
Next up, we have a track off of Adelphi by Australian indie-pop legends Even As We Speak. The band formed in 1986, broke up in 1993, and reformed in the last few years. Digging what I have heard so far.  I believe we featured them before - either in the playlist or the shuffle. 
34. "Maritime Panic" by Vexillary 
 
We close out this week with a track from Surviolence - the powerhouse new album from New York Electronic artist - the music here takes on the surveillance and highly politicized culture of the present day.  A dark and wonderful way to close out this week's playlist. 

 
   



Thursday Morning Shuffle 

"Just a Sound in the Night" by Rational Youth (from Cold War Night Life (Deluxe))
From the 2019 deluxe reissue of the 1982 debut album by this Canadian synthpop band. Cool stuff. 
"Down South In New Orleans" by Mrs. Henry (from Mrs. Henry Presents The Last Waltz)
From that amazing Last Waltz tribute album by California band Mrs. Henry - the song that was performed by Dr. John and Bobby Charles at the original show. 
"Fruit - I Don't Recall Waking Up" by Alienbaby Collective (from Fishbowl/Terrestrial)
Alienbaby Collective is the solo noise rock project of Dutch artist Liu Mottes. This is a double a-sided single from a double EP. Lots of doubles.  By the way, "double" in Dutch is "dubbele".  
"Sh-Boom" by Stuffy Shmitt (from Other People's Stuff) 
Our friend Stuffy is back with a track from his covers album.  This is his take on the 1954 doo-wop hit by The Chords. 
"Ripples in the Pond" by Glenn Jones (from Ready for the Good Times)
Next up, a track from the January 2020 (ah, I can almost remember January 2020...) 3rd studio album by the North Carolina singer-songwriter - who enlisted some prime N.C. talent for this album. 
"Fly High (Like Richard Branson)" by Clark Twain /(from Fly High (Like Richard Branson))
This was the 2018 debut single by Austin-based singer-songwriter Clark Twain. It was released ahead of his debut album Life is Wonderful.  This is great indie-pop/jangle pop.  Great stuff.
