Billy Bragg - Greetings To The New Brunette

I first heard this song while I was working nights in a group home while attending Colorado State University. I would have the local college radio station on while I did my work and it exposed me to many of the artists I still love (Paul Kelly, The Stranglers, XTC, Robyn Hitchcock). I loved this song and not long afterwards found the promo 12". Of course I also purchased the LP. Billy has a new powerful song out about Minneapolis- it is a must listen!!!

Tiny Lewis - Too Much Rockin / I'm Weak

I always take a chance on records that look like this and for good reason...just take a listen

David Gilmour - There's No Way Out Of Here

Song for yesterday and probably through tomorrow as my town is not equiped for snow. I did see them plow one of the main roads yesterday but the city won't plow my road as it is considered a state road so it will be days before they get to us. The cold weather will keep it from effectively melting

Little Axe And The Golden Echoes - Lord Have Mercy / Swing Down Chariot

The snowstorm yesterday up through the afternoon was pathetic..then the damn burst and we got hammered...maybe a foot of snow. Around 6:30pm some idiot was out hot doggin and hit a power pole and we lost power for 3 hours. It was bundle up time for sure. 

I spent the day cataloguing 45s into my database that I had in organized boxes and found this one.

The Miracle Makers - Too Bad / Oh Baby

I knocked another one off the want list. Years ago there was a guy selling these periodically on ebay and I constantly missed out. Apparently his father was in the band and he had a small box of them. A few weeks back I was talking to a new acquaintance in South Carolina and he wanted to buy some 45s by a soul group. I dug and found a stack for him and we ended up doing a trade, and I ended up with some Pyramid and JCP's he had dupes of  that I did not have (or were upgrades) including this one.

Harvey Russell & The Rogues - Shake Sherry

Week is winding down and as it will be cold this weekend so I plan on recording tons of stuff not to mention updating my database with new purchases I have not had time to do- if we don't lose power that is

Colleen & Teddy - Beachnut / Lonesome Blues

Another recent pickup. Sounds like we are going to get snow this weekend but here in Eastern NC you can't depend on that weather report until you actually see the white stuff on the ground
