1 recommendation
"Thanks goodness for remasters, better sound and sometimes a added track or two. In this case it's for a old favorite. Me? I love all of the Andy Warhol covers for The Stones, this one is to sexy and rude it might be my favorite, oh and the music kicks ass too."

"Maybe high school doesn't always rock but this movie - along with its killer soundtrack - will alleviate the boredom and help put bullies into perspective. Moviegoer bonus: an abbreviated tour of CBGB's."
Through The Devil Softly: Hope Sandoval And The Warm Inventions

"The words, music, production and performances on "Through The Devil Softly" are all so wonderful it will take me some time to choose a favorite. Dare I say it, it might be better than any of the Mazzy Star albums."
Retrospective: The Animals
2 recommendations
"Please don't let me be misunderstood, Eric Burton and the Animals--wow--there's, too much to say, I think you just have to hear them. Their performance of classic blues hits are naughty, gritty, sexy, funny, fuzzed out gems. Spill the wine!"
Catacombs: Cass McCombs
1 recommendation
"The newest from Cass McCombs managed to get one of the better rankings I've seen a while. So, I decided I need to give this one a full listen. And obviously, it was amazing. The music transforms me to a time and place I'm not familiar with, but that I never want to leave. Above all, maybe, is the song writing here... "You're not my dream girl. You're not my reality girl. You're my dreams come t..."
Finger Picking Good Banjo T-shirt
1 recommendation
"My brother, who works too hard bought a banjo a year ago. He figured it would distract him. Ha. The banjo sits on his fancy banjo stand. He picks it up every couple of weeks and drifts off trying to practice. My bro looks happy when not working. I was looking for a banjo t-shirt to motivate him and fell on this shirt, and this site, www.tshirtpusher.com. Great stuff. I'm recommending anoth..."

Bela's boundary-breaking musical adventure takes him to Uganda, Tanzania, The Gambia, and Mali, and provides a glimpse of the beauty and complexity o..."
Sun Araw
1 recommendation
"Sun Araw has the sound I've been looking for, I'm not sure if I want everyone to buy their music, cause I want to keep them as my treasured secret for a little while longer."
Welcome To Mali: Amadou & Mariam
2 recommendations
"bluesy, soulful, etherial, Amadou & Mariam have been a favorite of mine for years. Produced by Gorillaz and Blur frontman Damon Albarn, "Welcome To Mali" takes the Amadou & Mariam sound a little further into the diverse beauty of the human heart."
Hold Time: M. Ward
1 recommendation
"For those who don't know, M. Ward is the "him" from She & Him (the "she" of course being Zooey Deschanel). Obviously, the partnership really catapulted his mainstream viability. In many ways, this album was the result and I believe it to be mostly successful."
Tonight :Franz Ferdinand
3 recommendations
"I've never been a glowing fan of Franz Ferdinand. I like, but just whatever. However, I have a floating policy to listen albums that get a 7 plus on pitchfork. This one pulled in at a 7.3. I haven't bought it yet, but I'm listening to some track on MySpace right now and I'm pleasantly grooving to them."

"It is carousel day today! A beautiful shot taken with a medium format Lomo camera. Vintage colours and very nostalgic."
Welcome to the Cruel World: Ben Harper: Music
2 recommendations
"It's the second album from Ben Harper and was released in the early nineties. Most of the songs on this one are significantly less recognizable than those on Fight for Your Mind. However, I think they do a beautiful job setting the stage for the subsequent album. Best tracks: waiting on an angel, mama's got a girlfriend now"
Fight for Your Mind: Ben Harper
1 recommendation
"I'll be the first to admit that I, basically, Idolize Ben Harper. His old stuff is easily some of my favorite music ever. This, his 3rd album has some of the all-time classics, like oppression, by my side and burn one down. ...It's probably my favorite of his."
blues traveler
1 recommendation
"My brother bought me the Blues Traveler CD when I was in middle school and I thought I was so cool. I still listen to "Hook" and "Runaround" allllllll the time."
J.J. Cale: Troubadour
1 recommendation
"Cale is an amazing singer/ songwriter who penned a lot of popular songs for artists like Eric Clapton and Lynyrd Skynyrd. Classic rock icon. His songs on this album have a classic rock, funk, country and blues feel. Fav tracks: "Let Me Do it To You" "Hey Baby" "Ride Me High""
Green Rocky Road: Karen Dalton
1 recommendation
"Green Rocky Road is as close as we’ll ever get to hearing the record Karen Dalton would have made in 1963. Discovered on the same reel-to-reel tapes that yielded the live performances comprising the Cotton Eyed Joe release, were nine home recordings of Dalton left alone, with no one watching, no audience to please. Accompanied solely by her own sturdy banjo picking and 12 string strumming, her dee..."
The Return of Bruno: Bruce Willis
1 recommendation
"Not only was he a bad ass cop in "Die Hard," "Sin City" and "16 Blocks," but he is also a bad ass harmonica player. This was his debut album, which was released in 1987 in accordance to the comedic mockumentary film he starred in based on his fictitious alter ego "Bruno Radolini", a legendary blues singer."
Reverse Seam Striped Button-Down Shirt
2 recommendations
"This slim fitted shirt gives a more casual twist on the traditional pin striped shirt. Great gift for the man in the more casual office or one who likes to dress up a bit for his extracurricular activities."
Sonny Boy Williamson & the Yardbirds
1 recommendation
"I can't believe I just discovered this CD. This is legendary bluesman Sonny Boy Williamson live at the Craw-Daddy Club in London in 1963. Oh yeah, his backing band are the very young Yardbirds featuring Eric Clapton. Imagine how thrilled these guy must have been to play with one of the idols! I've said it before and will continue to say it, without legendary bluesmen such as Williamson, bands lik..."
White Blood Cells: The White Stripes
1 recommendation
"This is the album that introduced the White Stripes to the mainstream. "Dead Leaves on the Dirt Ground" and "Fell In Love With a Girl" were pretty big radio hits. They certainly caught my ear. I hadn't heard anything quite like their mix of blues and good old fashioned rock and roll before. It grabbed me with the opening guitar screech and wouldn't let go."
Night Time Is The Right Time (LP Version): Ray Charles
1 recommendation
"I first heard this song on the the Cosby Show when the Huxtable family was lip synching it for the grandparents' wedding anniversary. An awesome performance and a wonderful song. Bluesy and sexy."
The Definitive Collection - Howlin' Wolf
1 recommendation
"They just don't make voices like this any more!! Howlin' Wolf was a master bluesman and this CD shows many of the reasons why. If you are a Blues fan, no doubt you already own this. However, if you are not a Blues fan or haven't heard of Howlin' Wolf and you are a rock and roll fan you need to know him. I've said this before, but it bears much repeating. Without great bluesmen such as Howlin' Wolf..."
Raising Sand: Robert Plant and Alison Krauss
4 recommendations
"Definitely the year's mot dynamic duo. Great soulful songs, with the gravel of Plant's voice perfectly balanced with Krauss's beautiful tones. It's got a great, old-time-y feel as well, thanks to T Bone Burnett's production."
Eric Clapton - Clapton Chronicles - The Best of Eric Clapton
1 recommendation
"It does seem like boasting whenever someone dubs their own album "the best of", however, in this case, is it an understatement. Including the mournfully beautiful "Tears In Heaven" along with several of his popular blues songs, this Clapton album is a treasure trove of music history. Hearing him play "Layla" unplugged makes the album worth every iTunes penny."
