New Dave Gahan and the Soulsavers on NPR/First Listen -- very gospelly (go figure)

I've always loved Florence and the Machine but I've become a bit obsessed with Florence Welch after seeing her in concert. 

Which concert triggered your obsession, Shelly?

If you have an Apple TV, the 1hr30 Sept 28th Apple Music Festival performance is still currently available (in HD)

I saw her last weekend at Austin City Limits.  Of course I have an 3 Apple TVs, thanks for the link.   I wonder how long it will be available.   I really don't need any more distractions before November 3.   Does she take her shirt off in that concert, if not, I don't know if it is worth watching.

Wait, what?  (wanders off to look up google florence (austin-city-limits OR acl)...)

I actually quite like her music, too.

Aged punks require both glasses and songbooks for 3:30 excursions, still have some chops ...

The Decemberists - The Crane Wife

This one makes me think of Matt. 

Blackfield - Blackfield

 

The ending is amazing:

Dusty like.  Is the rest of his stuff any good, or is this one of those artists I'm only going to end up liking the one track...?

The rest of the album is more of the same.

Here's the link from the Erased Tapes web store:

Nice -- went looking, already determined I like him.  Hadn't yet uncovered that he was an Erased Tapes artist -- I've been having nothing but good luck with them.

Indeed, I think most of the album is at least just as good! Repeat, Unrest and Lungful are probably my other favorites.

I've been having the same experience with Erased Tapes – Ólafur Arnalds and Nils Frahm were other artists I discovered on Spotify, really liked and later found out to be from the same label.

Going classy, seeing Loreena McKennitt tonight in a trio performance.  So decided to start the day off trashy.

 

Butthole Surfers - Psychic... Powerless... Another Man's Sac

Jenny Lewis -- The Voyager

 

New Order -- Brotherhood

Simple, good and honest songwriting!
