Whats on your turntable tonight?

Alejandro Escovedo "Thirteen Years"  RSD/Watermelon Records

Half Mile Harvest was a phenomenon.  And, I agree it’s probably more pure good than the follow up: but, if you’d never heard HMH before you put Run Home Slow on your stereo you’d-a-been gobsmacked by that analogue tone.  Further, don’t know what the reviewers say but I think the songs on the second record are maybe a bit more evolved into their own style.  I am of course pre-disposed to favor anything by these guys.  I hold them as a treasure.  

Don’t know if I mentioned here that I had tickets to see the Teskey Bro’s on their tour through here after the holidays but they cancelled their west coast leg.  One of the brothers, I forget which, is expecting a baby.  Disappointed but got to admire them for doing that.  I mean, that’s a lot of forgone money.  They’re still going to play the east coast later next year though.  

I think I should listen to them back to back next time.

@Uberwaltz, 
“There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind ... the only yardstick by which the result should be judged is simply that of how it sounds. If it sounds good it's successful; if it doesn't it has failed.”

So, it’s all good man.
