Exile on Main St.Everybody already knows quite well that The Rolling Stones famous album Exile on Main Street has recently been reissued in a luxurious remastered new edition. It indeed sounds great, and much of today’s show is dedicated to this album. We also take some time to hear some new stuff. Super-trio Dirtmusic which consists of Chris Eckman, Hugo Race and Chris Brokaw has a second album called BKO. We also have a new name for the first time. His name is James Jackson Toth AKA Wooden Wand.

5. Dirtmusic

DirtmusicWhen Chris Brokaw, Chris Eckman and Hugo Race decided to form a trio, their main objective is to learn from each other, share experiences as artists and musicians. As you can imagine, when you put three great authors together in an unusually creative situation, great things happen. The idea was to turn to conservatively traditional forms musically and expand them with touching and deeply personal experiences. And honestly, results are so strong that yours truly was driven to tears on track 10.

First of all, Tim Lee is back with a rocking new album Good2b3. Also, rock’n’roll kings without crowns, Kamo Sutra from Zagreb have brand new recordings which will soon be their new release. They sent out the raw, still unmastered recordings and we sample them with one wonderful song Kretendo. Cheap Time from Tennessee is an interesting new band and we check them out too. Former Bad Seed, Hugo Race, has a new album called 53rd State. We heard Hugo earlier this year as one of the Dirtmusic participants.
