Georgia Cold & Kind

I raved incoherently about these guys six months ago, and my conviction that they are the greatest thing since sex has only grown stronger and more incoherent. Last time I was too lazy to post actual songs actually, like, here; but now I'm gonna p...

Paddy Keenan - Slow Air

Paddy Keenan. No clue what it's called; one of the comments says it's one Keenan wrote for his late brother. Keenan, of course, used to play in the Bothy Band back in the 1970s. Creepy stuff here. He's pretty good.

Amon Duul II Archangel Thunderbird

...by Amon Düül II. Arguably the coolest band name and song title in the entire history of drug-addled German Marxist hippie prog-rock collectives circa 1970. And beyond! But not very far beyond. Can't help liking the song, though. I think it w...

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!

It's not clear to me how many times you need to hear this, but it appears to be an increasingly large number. UPDATE I've been trying to Google the lyric to Great Plains' 1986 classic "Letter to a Fanzine", featuring the immortal couplet "Is...

Prince Nico Mbarga - Sweet Mother

Prince Nico Mbarga. Nigerian, I believe. Seems to have been hit in the 1970s. Fun song.

Rain Parade - This Can't Be Today

The Rain Parade, from their first album, Emergency Third Rail Power Trip (1983). The video's from 1984. Holy Toledo, those guys were good. Looks like they made the video after David Roback left, but he was still in the band when they recorded the ...

Mature audiences only, sorry. It's Nick Cave Day.

Killing Floor

Howlin' Wolf, 1964, and the great Hubert Sumlin (y'know he's still alive?) making with the thirds, in there with the horn section. If I'd folla'd my first mind...
