Two for the show today. One is a shuffle of recent acquisitions (which is what we did on IIRTZ today) and the other I never got around to posting last Friday. But I had to let George see the title of the Jurado song that shuffled up out of the depths of iTunes' despair.
This week:
Royal City, "Enemy" Little Heart's Ease
Frontier Ruckus, "What You Are" The Orion Songbook
The Books featuring Jose Gonzalez, "Cello Song" Dark was the Night: A Red Hot Compilation
The Notwist, "Boneless" The Devil, You + Me
Rufus Wainwright, "Crumb by Crumb" Want Two
Aaron Stout, "People" The Mind of Kings is Unsearchable
Vetiver, "Strictly Rule" Tight Knit
Olson & Louris, "Bloody Hands" Ready for the Flood
Songs: Ohia, "Champion" Axxess & Ace
Bright Eyes, "Papa was a Rodeo" Score! 20 Years of Merge Records: The Covers!
Bonus: Clem Snide, "Me No" Hungry Bird
Last week:
Freakwater, "Louisville Lip" Springtime
Kristin Hersh, "Ruby" Sunny Border Blue
Benjamin Biolay, "La dérive des continents" Negatif
Norfolk & Western, "We Were All Saints" A Gilded Age
Gato Barbieri, "Nunca Mas" Finest Hour
Benny Carter, "Vine Street Rumble" Harlem Renaissance
The Rolling Stones, "I Got the Blues" Sticky Fingers
Olson & Louris, "When the Wind Comes Up" Ready for the Flood
Damien Jurado, "Night Out for the Downer" Just in Time for Something
Chet Baker, "Everything Happens to Me" It Could Happen to You
Last week's bonus got chopped off:
Bonus: Brian Eno, Golden Hours Another Green World
Ah, Ahab, a very apropos Jurado song title.
And did you fork out the money for that entire Merge anniversary box, or did you land the covers CD separately somehow?
Ninja Gun, "Front Yard Screamers, Kitchen Kissers," Restless Rubes
Brian Jonestown Massacre, "Mansion in the Sky," Tepid Peppermint Wonderland: A Retrospective
Sarge, "Dear Josie, Love Robin," Distant
Bootsy's Rubber Band, "Pinnochio Theory," Live in Louisville 1978
Brian Jonestown Massacre, "That Girl Suicide," ditto
Los Camesinos!, "Between an Erupting Earth and an Exploding Sky," We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed
Harper, "The World Starts Loving You," Down to the Rhythm
Rilo Kiley, "Spectacular Views," The Execution of All Things
Billy Bragg, "The Passion," Talking with the Taxman about Poetry,
Ola Podrida, "Cindy," Ola Podrida
Bonus: Gillian Welch, "Whiskey's Girl," Hell Among the Yearlings
Starts strong with Ninja Gun, then bumps around that good Sarge tune, then ends with a nice set from Rilo on.
If you don't know my friends from Ninja Gun, check out this interview. If Coody's answer to the first question doesn't make you a rabid fan, nostalgia for Rove has taken over your brain.

Now Pavement. The nice run continues. . . (blog coming, George; they replaced my computer this week and I'm adjusting.)
oops. Los Campesinos! Just a segue song, but a great band. Oh, and Ninja met Willie Nelson by chance.
Still don't know why breaks are doubling. If I don't type in
it all runs together.
1. "Diamond Meadows" T. Rex / Velvet Goldmine OST
2. "Almost Crimes" Broken Social Scene / You Forgot it in People
3. "Game of Broken Hearts" Tarnation / Gentle Creatures
4. "Bottles and Bones" Califone / Califone - Roomsound
5. "Feel Good Hit of the Summer" Queens of the Stone Age / Rated R
6. "Telegram Sam" Bauhaus / Swing The Heartache-BBC Sessions
7. "All The Flowers In Time Bend Towards The Sun" Jeff Buckley & Elizabeth Fraser / Rarities From NYC
8. "Under The Surface" Bettie Serveert / Palomine
9. "Your Legs Grow" Nada Surf The Weight is a Gift
10. "Suspended From Class" Camera Obscura / Underachievers Please Try Harder
bonus "Fancy" Yo La Tengo /This Is Where I Belong (The Songs of Ray Davies)
The line break thing is fixed. I previewed, saw that, and had to tediously remove the br tags.
George, I thought you'd like the Jurado title. And I got the plain old Merge 20th anniversary CD. I forget how. It was a limited edition, I think. I've been on a CD tear for months, it's all fading together. I'll share it with you. I finally read some mail and even paid my bills a couple of days ago, so music chores are next. Honest.
