Song of the Day: Ben Harper - When The Levee Breaks

Ben Harper just released a new record - a collaboration with Charlie Musselwhite - a legend on blues harp and guitar. There's a lot of good stuff on the record, especially this track I Don't Believe A Word You Say. But when I heard it I immediately wondered why they didn't put When The Levee Breaks on there. And then I came a cross this video from the CD release party. The record was produced by Ben Harper and is available now on the Stax label.

Song of the Day: The Tontons - Golden

Houston-based band, The Tontons, will be releasing a new 7" in February as they prepare for SXSW. I like this band a lot. I thought I already posted this video but I can't find any posts with it. Better late than never I suppose.. Good luck at SXSW guys.. 

Here is the video for Golden.

On An On release new record/video

The Chicago/Minneapolis trio On An On released a new record this week. This is a new video for one of the tracks - The Hunter.

Song of the Day: Bad Religion Dept. of False Hope

Bad Religion released their 16th album last week and I'm really enjoying it. Nobody does it like Bad Religion -short, energetic, punk rock songs with melody and a point of view. There are a bunch of good songs on this record and this is one of my favorites. 

 

Song of the Day: Dinosaur Jr - PierceThe Morning Rain

This is a new video from the latest Dinosaur Jr record - out now on Jagjaguar. 

Video: Martin Luther King Jr

Required watching today - Martin Luther King, Jr Day.. One of the greatest speeches ever.
