I have their new album on pre-order and the third track just dropped a few days ago. Really love this pairing (their first album, Raising Sand, was awesome and I still listen to it frequently):

I've been streaming it on Hoopla. Some really good songs on there.
 
Nice Cliffy, listened to Wings Over America a few weeks back. Listening to these guys lately.

My Morning Jacket, very good album.

Mesmerizing. Possibly album of the year for me.

Now I'm streaming "Raising Sand (2007)." Probably not quite as good, but some quality tunes on that album as well.

Loved that one. It won Album of the Year for both the Grammys and the Americana Music Awards. I saw them live at Jazz Fest in 2008 and they were great.

But yes, the new one may be even better.

Just want to say thank you for your posts on this album. (made me curious) I have kinda lost touch with RP stuff since the Fate Of Nations album and Alison Krauss since New Favorite with her bluegrass band.
Just finished listing to their new album Raise The Roof with the headphones on, great stuff!

i knew it! i knew it, i knew it, i knew it. i knew it!
this crankin, daft, and 'running' beat is great (and new to me).
sum kind of 'biometric' person, whose whole shtick for exercise efficiency advice, for running (forget that. lol), is to tie movement to either/and beats per minute, and steps per minute. a worthy goal, tho highly unsustainable methinks. anyway,
160 spm on the charts! and, on this massive chart, one of the relatively few tunes with thumbs up.
there's a lotta knuckleheads today, badmouthing the whole team (fire everyone! trade everyone!), so when the time comes, uhh, let's just say that the time will come to
Hang Them High
 
lots o this around here lately


and this!

It's that time of year for "best songs of the year" lists. And for what feels like the first time in a long time, I think there was a lot of really good music released this year. Seems guitar is back at least a little. Strong year for R&B, soul and blues. Less Billie Eilsih and Ed Sheeran morose pap, more rock you can actually dance to. Even some dinosaurs did good work: Sting, Tears for Fears, Jackson Browne, Plant/Krause, Vedder.

Some of my favorites from 2021: Amethyst Kiah (Black Myself), Kingfish Ingram (622), Neal Frances (Can't Stop the Rain), Jon Baptiste (I Need You), The War on Drugs (I Don't Live Here Anymore), The Hold Steady (Family Farm), Middle Kids (Questions), Modest Mouse (We Are Between), Gang of Youths (Angel of 8th Ave)... there's a lot more.

And then there's Galaticana by Strand of Oaks - known for 12 minute trippy epics with great harmonies and guitar work, but who haven't sniffed much of anything radio-friendly. Until this year. Three guitars and a drummer can still get it done...

 
I remember hearing the name Juliana Hatfield during the 90s, but never really checked her out. This song has been popping up on one of my Pandora stations. Definitely digging it.

 
It’s become a yearly New Years’ eve tradition: Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan during dinner.

Got tickets to see them in Queens in early June. It’ll be my first time seeing Robert Plant live and I can’t wait!

That should be a very interesting show. Obviously they will play songs from their albums but what will be intriguing is what songs they will select from Plants past (Zeppelin and solo) and covers. Saw Robert Plant on his Manic Nirvana tour and it was outstanding, his voice was spot on. Should be a memorable night of music.

Not so much a tune, but a new Beato showed up in my feed with the clickbait title "The greatest guitar solo you can't hear". Turns out it was from a guy I can't stand listening to - Christopher Cross. But apparently he's a damned good guitarist. And his first album is full of Larry Coryell, Eric Johnson and others. I had no idea. I thought it was soft rock/AOR pablum.
