I definitely prefer Bob Welch’s era of Fleetwood Mac to the saccharine post-hippie Buckingham era that followed and which brought the some of the best selling (and most covered by indie hipsters albums) in pop/rock. Sadly, we say goodbye to Bob Welch, the architect of Mac sound after Peter Green left the band. He committed suicide on June 7, this year, following an excruciating pain from the spinal surgery he had three months earlier. On the lighter side, we also have some cool new albums that we check out. Chelle Rose from Nashville TN has a new one out called Ghost of Browder Holler, produced by Ray Wylie Hubbard (what a great season for him this year!). Folk rock lady Shawn Colvin, who we remember as a background vocalist on Suzanne Vega’s song Luka, has a new album as well. It’s called All Fall Down. Talking about folk and country, Sonny and the Sunsets made a new album in this vain called Longtime Companion. He even took a picture with a cowboy hat. But don’t expect him to pull Jonathan Richman on you. He’s in it for real. And, brothers Villanueva are back with their band Hacienda and the new record Shakedown, once again a collaboration with Dan Auerbach.
Today’s editions brings you the newest album for The Kropotkins, band fronted by Lorette Velvette and Dave Soldier. This is their third album, and listeners of this show their two first albums very well if they followed our past episodes. We also have A. A. Bondy with his new album Daytrotter Session volume 2, Suzanne Vega with her new album Close-Up Vol. 1 Love Songs. Jon Dee Graham is also here with his brand new album It’s Not As Bad As It Looks. We know him previously as the member of The Skunks, True Believers and The Resentments. He recently had an accident that nearly took his life, and we’re glad to see him back raging full on. John Wesley Coleman III is the new name at the Little Lighthouse. In this show you can hear a tune from his new album called Steal My Mind, Coleman’s version of Warren Zevon’s Lawyers, Guns And Money.
