If I have a relatively quiet
day at work I think that I may head on down to the other side of town to see
Nick And Norah's Infinite Playlist. Have any of you caught a
screening or anything? The trailers have been solid, but the title
annoys me and I'm a little concerned about its level of cheesiness. In
any case, the music part of my world today is all about Michael Nau and
Whitney McGraw's Cotton Jones. I've really been loving the work
they've put out under the moniker in in their post-Page France days, so
anything new they've got coming up will always be talked about here.
Now grab a pen and some paper so that you can make a note to remind yourself
to purchase The Rio Ranger EP when Quite Scientific releases it in
November! Enjoy.

Jones - Original Bones:
You know, if I didn't know any better I'd say that it seems
as if the bits of sarcasm (who knew Michael had swagger?)
and sudden fondness for vintage pop (I thought this act was
geared towards the blues?) certainly makes the two of them
sound like they're actually having a little fun here.
Maybe that's why I've been much more eager to get my hands
this stuff than I was for Page France and/or the Broadway
Hush.
This cover of
Starflyer 59's I Was Seventeen is a very slow-burning
number, so if you're thinking it will help you wake up or
something then you might want to hold off on watching it.
