Singer-songwriter Greg Brown has made a cottage industry for himself in the folk world by doing it his way. His quirky, deeper-than-deep voice, homespun poetic narratives, and decidedly uncommercial bent have found their way into the hearts of many via the label he and cohort Bob Feldman started specifically to promote his music, and which has incidentally become a viable home for many other artists over the years. That independent spirit is all over MILK OF THE MOON, where Brown refuses to fall into genre traps. If a song resembles a traditional blues too closely, he'll distort his voice till it sounds like he's singing from Tom Waits's bathroom. If a pastoral sonic landscape is in danger of becoming too precious he'll slather it with some stinging, distorted guitar.
Despite such twists, Brown's strength has always been simplicity, and he adheres admirably to that principle here. Part of the reason MILK OF THE MOON doesn't aspire to the junkyard orchestra heights of SLANT 6 MIND may be that Brown's guitarist/producer Bo Ramsey isn't on board. But it's just as likely that Brown just knew the best way to get these uncomplicated-but-trenchant tales of post-postmodern American life across was to present them with plenty of soul and a minimum of fuss.
On "Milk of the Moon" Greg Brown elevates the genre of original singer songwriter folk music to a plane just about level with the lunar surface!
Recorded at Alcove Sound, Oneida, New York.

| | Mike Bloomfield Super Session CD (1968) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Get Heavy
$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 disappointment here is that Stills, a far better singer than Kooper, never opens his mouth.
Those familiar with the Live Adventures album these two recorded at the Fillmore West know how brilliant they could be on stage, and here's another gem, recorded at the Fillmore East this time and featuring 'One Way Out,' 'It's My Own Fault' (with Bloomfield trading licks with Johnny Winter...Johnny was signed to Columbia after this gig!). Newly remastered & now with 4 bonus tracks, 'Albert's Shuffle' (2002 Remix w/o Horns), 'Season of the Witch.' (2002 Remix w/o Horns), 'Blues For Nothing' (Studio Outtake) & 'Fat Grey Cloud' Previously Unreleased Live Track). ...

| | Venom Hell CD (2008)
Get Heavy
$13.59 
Britain's Venom rages on with its 12th offering of blistering, irreverent metal. Cronos and his band of drunken misfits have created a raw, bitter, and aggressive album of no-frills metal. More akin to early, primal works like AT WAR WITH SATAN and POSSESSED than to the modern neo-thrash releases RESURRECTION and METAL BLACK, HELL is an album full of fist-banging anthems. The gritty, straightforward production here enhances the visceral nature of the classic Venom sound. With songs entitled "Straight to Hell" and "Stab U in the Back," the godfathers of extreme metal prove once again that they are not only relevant, but still an inspiration to the entire metal genre. The digipack edition of HELL features two bonus live tracks, "In League With Satan" and "Burn in Hell."

| | Lordi Deadache CD (2008)
Get Heavy
$11.65
Finland's Lordi offers its fourth studio release of fist-banging, hard-rocking party anthems with DEADACHE. Chockful of 1980s-inspired rock with a penchant for 1950s horror, Lordi's latest is heavier and more emotional than 2006's critically-acclaimed THE AROCKALYPSE. Featuring grotesque cover art by lead singer Mr. Lordi, DEADACHE is a neo-romantic joyride that thrills just as much as it chills. Credit Nino Laurenne (Ensiferum, Finntroll, Wintersun), who adds sharp production and unnerving atmospherics to the band's already refined ...
| | Percy Mayfield Memory Pain CD (1992)
Get Heavy
$13.09
Digitally remastered by Joe Tarantino (1992, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California).
Known as the "poet of the blues," Percy Mayfield was a songwriter nonpareil, who transmuted the sound of postwar R&B to suit his own purposes, scoring hits of his own and writing hits for others. MEMORY PAIN is a unique collection of the recordings Mayfield made for the Specialty label in the first half of the 1950s. It contains some of his signature tunes, such as the immortal "Please Send Me Someone To Love," as well as some of his lesser known (though equally great) compositions, and even his own recording of "Hit the Road Jack," which Ray Charles picked from the Mayfield songbag. Whether it's a stone-cold classic or some archival esoterica, though, every track here is given its own dose of magic via Mayfield's bluesy croon, idiosyncratic songwriting, and beautifully broken ...

$11.49
Sometimes low-budget discs from local bands are more enjoyable than high-budget major label productions because of the raw energy, sheer, unadulterated talent, and we-mean-it vibe that comes shining through on them. Seattle's Happy Savage has made such a disc. In concert, Happy Savage stretches out into credible and enjoyable 20-minute jams, often on [Grateful] Dead songs like "The Other One" or "Fire On The Mountain." On this record, however, they demonstrate the strength of their songwriting, and ability to be concise, giving voice to the environmental concerns and alienation from modernity that were more often found in the Dead's audience than in their music, in fine three to five minute rock songs. The title ...
