| | Mike Bloomfield Super Session CD (1968) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Postcards From California
$6.75 A surprise best-seller when it was first released, this mostly improvised pairing of singer/keyboardist/producer Al Kooper with two major guitar heroes of the day sounds fascinating all these years later precisely because of the distance of time--nobody makes records like this any more. The material runs the gamut from folk pop (covers of Donovan and Dylan), to blues ("Albert's Shuffle," "You Don't Love Me"), to heady jams ("His Holy Modal Majesty"), to big-band jazz ("Harvey's Tune").
All the tunes make effective templates for the kind off-the-cuff music-making that in less capable hands might have resulted in simple noodling. In fact, although Bloomfield and Stills don't play together on any of the cuts (Bloomfield played on one side of the original LP, Stills on the other), all three principals get off lots of good licks and producer Kooper has some interesting tricks up his sleeve, as in the over-the-top phasing he lavishes on "You Don't Love Me." The only real ...

| | Idaho Hearts Of Palm CD (2000)
Postcards From California
$9.29 Jeff Martin, Idaho's singer/songwriter, is a master of the subtle gesture that reveals the entire life. On Hearts of Palm, Idaho's fifth studio album, Martin strums his custom four-string guitar and sings in his raspy Neil Young/Bill Callahan tenor about life's unsolvable mysteries, and times to be savored but not possessed. The minor-key ruminations especially shine on the piano-driven opener, "To Be the One," gaining steam and weight with each verse. The songs carry the structure of an elegy: lament, consolation, bad news followed by good. Since 1996's feedback-fueled Three Sheets to the Wind, Idaho has quieted down without quelling its demons. The rotating cast of players is a duo on Hearts of Palm, with Dan Seta on guitars and Jeff Martin playing all other ...

| | Mia Sable Propeller CD (2006)
Postcards From California
$11.15 Mia Sable describes her songs as “folk caberet trip pop indie alternative sad girl music”. And while it may sound complicated, it’s really quite simple. The genre-spanning songs are inspired by a respective range of artists, from the dark and quirky, to the catchy. Sable names Fiona Apple, Rilo Kiley, Lisa Loeb, Jon Brion, and Kurt Weill as influences to her personal brand of intellectual pop. Mia Sable’s debut album, Propeller (2006), opens with a prelude bearing the same title, which asserts, “you’ve every right to your uncertainty, and me to my convictions, but if it’s true that we all remain traumatized at some childhood age, then I’ll just have to do better...propeller...” This sets the tone of Sable’s lyrics which reflect deeply on everyday mini dramas and moments, with the kind of honesty that makes it hard to pin whether Sable’s world is mostly jaded, or rather, hopeful clashing with a heavy helping of reality. Now 22, Sable began writing poems and lyrics at 12 years old. “I remember in the grammar classes, learning about metaphors, and syllabic rhythms,” says Sable, “and maybe it makes me a dork, but I just loved it. And I loved my thesaurus, and I loved the idea that there were so many ways to recount images and ideas with words”. Growing up, Sable had to change schools every 2-3 years which she explains, “ probably ...

| | Oscar Brown, Jr Sin & Soul... And Then Some CD (1996)
Postcards From California
$5.95 Digitally remastered by Debra Parkinson (Sony Music Studios, New York, New York).
Oscar Brown, Jr. may not have been the first jazz singer-songwriter (Mose Allison, among others, precedes him), but he certainly helped to usher in the notion of the political/protest singer-songwriter, predating Bob Dylan with this 1960 debut album. Years before Sly Stone or Gil Scott-Heron detailed the travails of black life in white America, Brown was serving up such tunes as "Bid 'Em In," where the narrator is an unrepentant slave auctioneer, and "Work Song," which added a lyric about the results of ghetto-ization to Nat Adderly's famous tune.
