Almost forgot my Twitter DJ duties today. Today's 1st album: Quantic and Nidia Gongora, Curao. This is awesome stuff and you want to hear it.
Today's 2nd album: Shye Ben Tzur, Jonny Greenwood, and the Rajasthan Express, Junun. This is also fantastic.
Today's 3rd album: The White Stripes, Elephant. "Seven Nation Army" is so good that even overplaying it in sports stadiums doesn't make me sick of it.
Today's 4th album: Buddy Tabor, Earth and the Sky. The late great and almost completely unknown songwriter from Alaska was a very special talent. This video is terrible, but again, he had no money. This song is cowritten with Sherman Alexie.
Today's 5th album: Willie Nelson & Ray Price, San Antonio Rose. Great album, good story. Willie was at the peak of his fame. His mentor Price was not exactly hip or selling albums in the late 70s. So Willie decided to do a duet album to help.
Today's 6th album: The Ramones, self-titled album. I need a shot of energy and I am counting on these nice young men to provide it for me.
Today's 7th album: Sonic Youth, Experimental Jet Set, Trash, and No Star. In that kind of a mood.
Today's 8th album: Scout Niblett, The Calcination of Scout Niblett. This is not exactly an every day listen. But the music actually sounds like someone with a blowtorch in one hand and happily waving with the other.
