Favorite First Quarter Albums - 2013

I figure if I start compiling my favorites through out the year, it will make making a final list easier.  Not likely but here's my start.

Angeline Morrison - Are You Ready Cat?
Heidi Talbot - Angels Without Wings
Lady - S/T
Alice Smith - She
Kacey Musgraves - Same Trailer Different Park
The Replacements - Songs For Slim
New Order - Lost Sirens

As usual there are some records I still need to get a hold of yet i.e. Warm Soda.


Favorites from late 2012 still in heavy rotation

Sugar & The Hi Lows - S/T
Ian Skelly - Cut From A Star
Brian Whelan - Decider




Looking forward to the pending releases of E.Joseph and Phantom Heart, second Villagers album and The Musgraves from the UK

Glad you liked that Warm Soda. You should have come out to their gig last week.

That is definitely on my list, too.

Alasdair Roberts and Friends - A Wonder Working Stone
Cigarette - Gush
Hilly Eye - Reasons to Live
Jacco Gardner - Cabinet of Curiosities
Matmos - The Marriage of True Minds
My Bloody Valentine - MBV
Ooga Boogas - Ooga Boogas
Paint Branch - I Wanna Live
Pete Swanson - Punk Authority
Steve Mason - Monkey Minds in the Devil's Time
Sun City Girls - I Mohini
Black Twig Pickers - Rough Carpenter
Veronica Falls - Waiting for Something to Happen
Warm Soda - Someone for You
Waxahatchee - Cerulean Salt
Wooden Wand - Blood Oaths of the New Bruise
Yo La Tengo - Fade


Plus a variety of reissues/comps.

Nick Cave

I considered the Warm Soda show, but late running mid-week gigs are really rough on me these days…  If it had just be them playing that night I would have made the effort, but the two additional acts just made for too late of a night.

Anyone see Drunk Tigers or The View last night?

Well I understand the mindset here but in this day and age, release dates don't mean much. I've listened to it a half-dozen times and love it, so I include it

And yeah, Justin Timberlake will prob be on my end of year list.

it would be a good time for Suede to return to the 930 club.  I guess their original guitarist isn't in the reunion.  What is he up to as it doesn't appear he played on Duffy's last album.
