| | Van DeLecki's Ebum Shoobum Shoobum CD Van DeLecki's Discography of CDs
The second collaboration by North Carolina singer-songwriters Bryan Shumate (from the band Let's Get Mikey) and Jamie Hoover (leader of the glorious Spongetones) trumps the duo's fine debut, LETTERS FROM THE DESK OF COUNT S. VAN DELECKI. The band's name comes from a fabled episode of "The Andy Griffith Show."
All 13 songs--including a rocked-up cover of Bob Lind's folk-pop "Elusive Butterfly" and the unlisted "R.E.M.," which consists of nothing but that band's name repeated endlessly over jangle-pop that sounds like an outtake from RECKONING--balance on the knife-edge between invention and classic pop forms that characterizes the best power pop. As good as upbeat tunes like "Nurse Ratched" and "Diane" are, it's more low-key tracks like the AAA radio-ready "Ten Good Days" that really shine. Marshall Crenshaw and Matthew Sweet fans should take note.

The group's debut album sounds like the more reflective moments of Lou Reed's early/mid-'70s material, with a high "haunt count" and enough emotional depth so as to evoke cinematic images -- and the really quiet moments call to mind Syd Barrett. From the stark minimalism of "Tempest" to the more lyrical work around it, the effect on the listener ranges from momentary disorientation to bracing excitement, but it's all really pretty, too, if sometimes stark and bare. ~ Bruce Eder
Occupying a languid no man's land between atmospheric soundscapes and tranquil "slow-core" with a strident undercurrent of countrified twang (courtesy of resident "metaphysical cowboy" Dusty Wright), the self-proclaimed chamber-folk music quartet GIANTfingers is not an easy project to accurately peg, given its diverse and constantly morphing nature. Fittingly spawned, however inadvertently, from "incidental music" composed for a television biography on Andy Warhol, what started ...

In the 1990s, former James Brown sidemen Fred Wesley and Maceo Parker concentrated on instrumental jazz. But back in the late '70s they were both part of George Clinton's empire and focused on P-Funk. Having been in Brown's employ, trombonist Wesley and saxman Parker were obvious choices for Clinton's various projects. The Godfather of Soul was a major influence on Clinton and gave Wesley and Parker a first-class education in funk and soul that served them well when they hooked up with Clinton. In 1977, Clinton and Bootsy Collins produced A Blow for Me, A Toot for You, the debut album by Fred Wesley & the Horny Horns -- a group that boasted Wesley on trombone, Parker on tenor and alto sax, and Rick Gardner ...
