Not gonna get a lot of run media wise, but, if you like old school country duets and top notch singer songwriter fare, the new Kelly Willis & Bruce Robison album out tomorrow ("Beautiful Lie") is wonderful.

Spoon greatest hits album is due out in July, and it includes one new track, 'No Bullets Spent'. Looking at the tracklisting, and, this thing looks very slight. Only 13 songs...one of them new. What is there is solid, but a ton of great songs missing.
Every time I see something about the band PUP, my brain reads PULP, and I get very excited that there is news about PULP. I'll have to check PUP out, but I also wouldn't mind hearing something new from Jarvis and/or PULP.
Digging into this debut album from Lola Tried after enjoying the hell out of their set on Saturday opening for Cruiserweight. Just the shot of adrenaline needed on a Monday. Not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but tons of potential for this group.
Great show featuring local artists tonight. A Cruiserweight reunion show with Lola Tried and Quiet Company as openers. All 3 bands brought it. Wasn't sure what to expect from Cruiserweight as they've been dormant for a while now, but they sounded great.
I love the commercial with the father and daughter going to the Mets game with the Bee Gees' 'To Love Somebody' playing in the background...at least until the Facebook Groups logo pops up at the end. Damn you Zuckerberg!

They could play the same songs at every show and I'd never get tired of seeing Bruce Robison and Kelly Willis play live.
Not sure how far outside of the region they reached, but, if there are any What Made Milwaukee Famous fans, they are doing a 15th anniversary limited edition vinyl release of their debut album, "Trying To Never Catch Up". More details in next post.
Nice surprise today having the songs from Julien Baker's RSD single made available for streaming.
I signed up for that Okkervil River subscription deal a few months back. I had already received the initial package of stuff, and I've been downloading the monthly live releases. However, today the lyrics for my selected song, 'Plus Ones', arrived. Gotta say, this is pretty cool to have.
Jon Stewart in front of the House Judiciary Committee on behalf of 9/11 first responders is my spirit animal.
Guys, I'm really starting to think this Woodstock 50 thing isn't actually going to happen.
First 4 songs I heard this morning: Dr. John's 'Goin' Back To New Orleans'; Erika Wennerstrom's cover of Townes' 'Be Here To Love Me'; Leonard Cohen's 'Bird On A Wire'; and Cults' 'High Road'. Public radio doing its thing.
Wait, so @Colonel_Angus and Prince share a birthdate?
It feels like there are at least 3 National Donut Days every year. Not complaining...just more of an observation.
To the manimal on the treadmill next to me this evening with the incline set at 20.0, I just have one thing to say to you:
Damn. RIP Dr. John.
Seven years on and Japandroids' 'The House That Heaven Built' is still such an exhilarating listen.
Spiritualized performing on Colbert last night:
