The Who - 1969 Soundboard Tapes I - III

This is rock 'n' roll defined and that is all I can really say. Absolutely essential for any Who fans and anyone that wants to rock really hard. Townshend's guitar is distorted and messy, Moon is practically an octopus playing the drums, Entwistle's bass is my favorite of all time and Daltrey's voice is golden, one of the, if not the best rock 'n' roll voices of all time. God I love the Who.

My Morning Jacket Art

Just picked this up! Someone on the MMJ forum had this piece for sale and I wanted it then. I may be trying to save some scratch right now but I could not pass this up, hell, I'll be getting a new place soon, I need something to tie the room together!

Lack of Posts, Sorry!

Hey guys. Just to let everyone know, I just moved and where I am at right now I will not have the internet. I'm staying with some friends just for a couple of weeks before I can find a new place (I left my old one in a hurry, landlord issues...). I promise I'll find a way to get some posts up soon. For the future I have some great The Decemberists shows, some Neil and some solid Jacket. Thanks for hanging on and I'll get that stuff up ASAP.

Yim Yames - Tribute To...

All I can is wow, Jim's voice fits these songs too well. His version of "Sir Frankie Crisp" is truly amazing in all its reverb drenched glory. Listen to the distant sounding shout "Let it roll..." at 2:56.

Head over to YimYames.com to download now and pre order.

Cortney Tidwell - Being Crosby (ft. Jim James)

Here is a lovely duet off of Cortney Tidwell's latest offering Boys. The song is titled "Being Crosby" and it really is a lovely/peaceful tune. I am being honest when I say that I wouldn't listen to this if our boy weren't on on it but if her stuff is like this then I am in!

What do you guys think of her?
