...I've been hearing Dig Lazarus Dig by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and was totally digging the groove - and I was also listening to Top Man by Blur from The Great Escape - (many thanks go to Jon Ewing for that) - strangely enough Amazon don't have this one available for download - of course I could be blind! - but anyway - they have a jolly similar groove don't they1 ;-)

Bill Wither's early insight into a Man's heart sneaks up on you with it's honesty and brilliance - you might even say: "It Rocks!" We're covering this over at Kelli.com, it sounds amazing - but in the meantime - check out this great video of him introducing it on The Old Grey Whistle Test in 1972.

I'm listening to Thick as Thieves by Dashboard Confessional. I love their song Currents - the guitars sound like a cross between Coldplay and AC/DC - I love the register of the vocal and the keys are wonderfully put in - it's hopelessly romantic and passionate - I love the lyric - it says to me that even at the end of things - there's hope for the future - and shit - I'm an optimist - so you know I'm probably gonna dig it. We're developing a number of covers for the Kelli set - we worked yesterday on Bobby McGee and Ain't no Sunshine - I'm super excited about them both - Bobby McGee in particular. We took the verse and made it minor and it works - actually - it sent shivers up our spines - Kelli and I did a couple of takes on the 31st - one slow and piano driven - one faster guitar driven - I dig them both. We're going into the studio tonight to work them up and if things go well - we'll have video of them by Thursday!
