A bit short on time, I was out last night - seeing people and checking out Mark Robinson Band with John Jackson - which was next level good and the Brian Wright and the Sneak-Ups with guest Jon Latham. I realized that both played as part of my 2017 E2TG Residency. It was such a wonderful and needed night.
Time to wrap up this week's Featured Friday Playlist. And we really did save some of the best for last...
35. "Dreaming with Alice - Verse 1" by Mark Fry
This is a reissue of 1971 - sought after psych-folk album which came out just last week on Now-Again Reserve Records. Tremendous. I didn't know anything about this album or about Mark Fry but I am captivating. Fry was just 19 when this was originally recorded.
36. "Alive" by Dope Sagittarius
37. "Until When" by Jaffa Road
New single from this Toronto based Jewish roots band. It is the lead single from an album due out in the fall.
38. "Shooting Star" by Løwenørn
A new project from our old friend Sverre of Supercrashingstar. Supercrashingstar has a new album out - which we will feature in the new Playlist premiering tomorrow.
39. "Sad Girls Club" by I M U R
40. "Accountability" by DeLila Black
Great new punk country single from the UK - with BJ Cole on lap steel guitar.
41. "Fierce and Delicate Things" by Shay Martin Lovette
And why not close out the playlist with one of the strongest songs on the list. Scatter & Gather is the new album from this North Carolina based singer-songwriter. Fantastic songs and great sounding music. A wonderful way to close out the week's playlist.
Featured Friday Playlist
"Separate" by Tombstones in the Their Eyes (from Collection - 2020)
E2TG favorite Tombstones in Their Eyes are back with a retrospective album called Collection.
"The River Still Flows" by the transcendents (from Dirt Songs - 2017)
We've kind of last track of this New Zealand band but for a few years they were favorites of ours and released some fantastic music.
"This Ain't Love" by Charlie Hager (from Truth and Love - 2019)
Coincidentally, I saw a post from Charlie Hager that he just got physical copies of this album and now it shows up in the shuffle today. As I mentioned yesterday, I do believe in the power of randomness.
"Animal Channel" by Bill Bloomer (from Jubilee - 2018)
And great tune from the album that introduced me to one of the most colorful characters I have written about. I still hope we can meet one day.
"Your Love is a Prison"by Destijil (from Greatest Hits Vol 2 - 2020)
So, this is an album released last spring by this Mancunian/French hybrid band that formed in 1995. It is not, a volume 2 of a Greatest Hits collection - but actually a new studio album.
