Merry Christmas to Me
As in, music I got for Christmas, including music I bought for myself:
- The Black Keys - Rubber Factory
- Gritty blues recorded using a "medium-fi" technique.
- Galactic - Cooling Off
- A bluesy-jazz-funk gumbo.
- Stanton Moore - Flyin' the Koop
- The drummer from Galactic blasts out some funky grooves leading a group that includes the likes of Chris Wood and Karl Denson.
- Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights
- Hailed as a milestone in the advance of post-punk pop.
- Joseph Arthur - Our Shadows Will Remain
- This along with the Interpol cd came from George. I've never heard of Arthur before, but I trust george's taste enough to be able to recommend this cd without having listened to it yet.
- Medeski, Martin, & Wood - Farmer's Reserve
- Experimental meanderings recorded in "The Shack" in 1997 following the completion of their Shack Man recording. (Actually, this one was just lent to me, but if I like it, I just may buy it for myself.)
