Been obsessing for the last week over the Crows, a London 4-piece that I guess can best be described as channeling The Stooges, Oasis, and Nick Cave through a post-punk filter.  Ordered their only album this morning.

Old ACL performance
 
The lifeblood - the lighthouse flashing
Sixteen chicks remain on watch
For the wheels to come rolling in
And they do...
Yes they always do
I'd be bored and disappointed if they didn't
Buzzards and dreadful crows
Right on the tip of my nose
They wait like cats and fly out
For the light in my eyes to die out
And it does...
Yes it always does
I'd be shocked and removed if it didn't
Buzzards and dreadful crows
A necessary evil, I suppose
There's something in this deal for everyone
Did you really think that you were the only one?
Buzzards and dreadful crows
A necessary evil, I suppose
There's something in this deal for everyone
Did you really think that you were the only one?
You were the only one

Almost 30 years after making Hounds of Love, Kate records this live for projection at the Before the Dawn show she did in in 2014.  I wish she would release a dvd or stream of that show.  Imagine floating in a tank long enough to get hyperthermia while be able to sing like this.

Introducing my kids to Prince to try to help offset the rubbish they listen to with their mom.

Tried Jimi Hendrix today.  They were unimpressed.  They're 5 so I've got time. They can listen to Jimi but they can't hear Jimi.

Rolling Stones up next

They’re 5? Jesus, dude. They’re not ready for Jimi. They’re not ready for Please Please Me.

Try starting them them out with this:

Then maybe see if you can find a CD of Peter and the Wolf.

Jimi Hendrix for a five-year-old? Just give them some LSD while you’re at it. A quarter tab will do the trick, I’m sure.

Paco is great. There’s some videos of him and al dimeola that are fantastic.

I got to see them with John McLaughlin on the “guitar trio” reunion tour. One of the finest concerts I’ve ever seen. And I’ve seen a lot.

I've always dug this track. LIke a lot. I'm now coming around to thinking it is on a very short list of songs that could have an argument for being the greatest ever recorded.
