I absolutely love the song 'Can't Hurry Love'. (Assuming you're asking about a good Concretes song)

this is what I was talking about in my "where do you learn about new music" thread. Who are these bands? Where did you hear about them?

Howe Gelb has been around for 20+ years. Does the name "Giant Sand" ring a bell?
I've never been a Giant Sand fan, but the Gelb disc isn't the train wreck I was expecting. (alt-country with a gospel choir should automatically raise a red flag)

Will have to check that song out... I'm DJing the Concretes show and was wondering what they were like soundwise, etc.

indie/psych pop ... "can't hurry love" is definitely their best track, cameron crowe used it in "elizabethtown", sounds like something right out of the summer of love
concretes are swedish, so maybe something by my favorite swede indie popster of the moment, jens lekman ... "maple leaves" is just a great song

Yes, I'm really digging Jens Lekman. Tis a shame he's not playing DC, in fact he has never played DC.

ripping it right now - will listen this afternoon

Five songs into the Gnarles Barkley and I'm sold... Great single and neat Violent Femmes cover so far and am really enjoying the updated 60s soul sound of the record. Would be interesting to see if this record inspires similiar efforts. The Cee-lo record just got added to the top of my yourmusic queue...

"Sno Angel Like You" is great. It's the first thing I've heard from Gelb or Sand. There's a gospel choir on it, but it is definitely not obtrusive or forced. All of the songs sound like they were originally composed with them in mind even though only about 1/3 of the songs are new. The choir mixes well with Gelb's minimalistic alt-country arrangements. It's definitely worth a listen.

you've gotta get both of these:
Goodie Mob - "Soul Food" (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000013GF/sr=8-1/qid=1148006918/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-9880246-6785668?%5Fencoding=UTF8)
and
Cee-Lo Green ... Is the Soul Machine (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00013EV1A/sr=8-1/qid=1148006957/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-9880246-6785668?%5Fencoding=UTF8)
i actually like the second one more (blasphemy, i know)

Based on the Paste Review his record sounds like something of interest to me, that being 60s R&B mixed with rock. He's also at the Black Cat on Thursday... Anyone heard the record?

This is a classic. I knew every word on this album at one point...

I think Dupek is part of the MN8 email team now ... well-written, buddy!

Peace Fam,
Sad to say that I got a call notifying me that the DC show on 6/8 is cancelled. The show was cancelled due to the fact that Van's label decided at the last minute against supporting the dates in DC and Hoboken which were already confirmed. It is unfortunate that Capitol does not have a higher regard for their Artist and his audience. For its clear Van's man of the year and we're ready for him under the hot stage lights.
Sorry for the inconvenience. Hope to see y'all soon.
Keep shining,
MN8
