Embarrassments Of Rich's: The Gourds - Noble Creatures (2007)
http://embarrassmentsofrichs.blogspot.com/2010/01/gourds-noble-creatures-2007.html
Music and blogs for the discerning appreciator of the terpsichore and muse. Saturday, 2 January 2010. The Gourds - Noble Creatures (2007). The Gourds are out of Austin, Texas and generally get described as "alt.country"; I wouldn't lump them in with that earnest lot, though. To me they're more of a gin-you-INE country jug band bringing the style into the modern age. Noble Creatures, released in 2007, is one of their best and a great place to start for any newcomer. Opening with. How Will The Sun Shine.

If you're a student of US hardcore and alt-rock this blog's going to keep you interested for. Guitars redo...

Music and blogs for the discerning appreciator of the terpsichore and muse. Tuesday, 27 October 2009. This classical music malarky's a very confusing and complicated business. First off, like I said before there's nothing like TotallyFuzzy to help you find what you're looking for. You end up having to find "a" classical blog and then working through the band of borthers that forms the links to the other classical blogs(and they are, indeed, the same links on every blog!

Music and blogs for the discerning appreciator of the terpsichore and muse. Tuesday, 27 October 2009. Capella De Ministrers - Trobadors (2005).

In explanation for my prolonged absence, I'd like to offer up something that should resonate with every music-loving reader of this blog(which will be most of you). A travelogue of the highest order, Hunter's book is a great introduction to this most impenetrable of genres. ...

Music and blogs for the discerning appreciator of the terpsichore and muse. Saturday, 2 January 2010. Turn The Light Out. Based in Poland, Michal has brought us a blog with a nice mix of some quite hard to find modern country and alt. albums, along with others that have received plenty of coverage on other sites. He hasn't got loads of stuff there so it's well worth a half hour checking his lists. If alt.'s your bag then he's got some interesting sounds for you. Turn The Light Out. How Will The Sun Shine.

Music and blogs for the discerning appreciator of the terpsichore and muse. Saturday, 25 July 2009. Clearly a massive fan of Neil Young, Bob Dylan and The Beatles, Tonics has a blog here that'll get anyone with similar tastes salivating. Chock full of goodies, he's got a seemingly endless list of bootlegs from all of the above, along with other major players of the same ilk whilst also, on occasion, throwing in another sound from somewhere out of left field (The Exploited anybody?

Music and blogs for the discerning appreciator of the terpsichore and muse. Monday, 31 August 2009. Michael Dust Devil recently brought his astounding blog back to us after "going private" for a time, an event for which we can only thank him. I've looked a Very Large Number of blogs over the years but YoungMossTongue is truly awe inspiring, not least for the sheer quantity of uploads. There's no chat (at all) but there's no need here. Pay Michael a visit, but be prepared to spend A LOT of time with him.

Embarrassments Of Rich's: June 2009
http://embarrassmentsofrichs.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Music and blogs for the discerning appreciator of the terpsichore and muse. Saturday, 20 June 2009. I don't know about you but I recognised some time ago that all of my favourite records had a certain something about them in common, whatever the genre. To this day I don't know whether it's the production, the bass sound or what but they've all got that "mojo". Imagine my surprise, then, not to mention delight, when I found Scootz "n" Bootz. You NEED to check the site out. Oh, and he. Kick Over The Statues.
