Today's Quick Mention: The almighty Daytrotter just put up a
video session with Rodriguez, who was in my Top 25 Albums list last year
with what is quite possibly my favorite re-issue ever. Trust me and do
yourself a huge favor by checking out what they put
up.
Happy Friday! We have finally reached the end of the work week, which
for whatever reason has me thinking that we need something simple and ready
to be blasted while cruising with the windows down. Or, if you will,
the Rakes. The UK-based act has a new full length coming out on March
23 titled Klang, and I believe you'll like the first taste.
Enjoy.
:The
Rakes - The Light From Your Mac:
What do you get
when toss together drowsy vocals, a steady beat and some
jangly guitars? Most bands. And yet, while
that's exactly what the Rakes are pushing out, I find myself
willingly captivated and completely open to hearing as much
as I can find. You should just let go (strutting is
optional, but totally recommended) for the three-minute
duration of this slinky tune.
