As a light mist of rain settles on the window, here’s a few songs that have been keeping me company lately. Enjoy your Sunday …
Fare Thee Well - Robert Fischer (Willard Grant Conspiracy)
WGC main man Robert Fischer here in solo acoustic mode. Word is the whole rambling ensemble are hitting our shores early 2010.
1897 - Seaworthy
Recorded in an a decomissioned ammunitions bunker, this album blends the bands atmspheric instrumentation and field recordings. Perfect for late nights and early mornings…
Lost Coastlines – Okkervil River
And to finish off… the perfect country-pop of Okkervil River. One of the live highlights of my musical year.
i think i will like the WGC once the video is working again.
the seaworthy was perfect ‘just woken from an afternoon nap on a chilly sunday arvo’ music.
and the old okk’. bit of a wierd film clip. they had so much joy and presence live that the papercutout audience doesn’t do them justice.
thanks gray!
You’re welcome littlej. Seaworthy is perfect for the napping and the WGC is heartbreakingly good. And Okkervil… well they will remain one of the great live experiences for me.
