What Are You Listening To?

JC Brooks and The Uptown Sound - Beat of Our Own Drum

The sound of a hard working Soul band that grew up listening to The Clash and what's amazing is that they work  them together without being overtly obvious.

Love these guys.  Ever since I saw a video on Youtube of them (excellently) covering IATTBYH, I've been listening to the few tracks on their myspace regularly.  I may have to order that album.  They definitely have a nice sound.  I hear the soul and rock influences you mentioned.  I would have definitely checked them out at the Club last week had I not been in Richmond.

The Khan Jamal Creative Arts Ensemble - Drum Dance to the Motherland

I've started this many times but always got side-tracked while listening. Even more psyched for that Chromatic Mysteries gig now.

Know what's not an awesome listen?  A Nirvana box set full of rare and unreleased tracks.

Yeah I remember buying that when it came out because target had it at some ridiculous price. I think I opened it just because I like to see my new stuff but damned if I can remember ever playing a minute of it.

Jandek - You Walk Alone


This is really nice and accessible as far as Jandek goes.


Sounds like what Kurt Vile must've listened to on repeat while recording Constant Hitmaker.


The similarities are incredibly uncanny in parts.
