What unknown musical artist would you like to share with your fellow audiophiles?
I see no one so far has mentioned Judy Henske; people younger than maybe 60 or 65 might not have heard of her. She had a voice like no one else. She did different styles - folk, blues, jazzy stuff. One reviewer rather recently said something like that if Linda Ronstadt was on fire, Judy Henske was an explosion. She recorded some stuff when she was older, but none of it moved me. Her Elektra albums (from the early 60s; I think there were only two) are really exceptionally good. |
Here is a really good one- Black Swan Lane. Formed in 2007 in Atlanta, Black Swan Lane included Mark Burgess from The Chameleons and The Sun and the Moon. They have seven albums out and rarely tour. I think they sound like a cross between the Chameleons and the Church. Their albums always feature a very layered "wall of sound" and are always recorded with the highest fidelity. Here is the link to their website: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&... I will post a youtube video next. Highly recommended. |
