I’m exhausted, tuckered out from lack of sleep, work stress, having my son home, and getting through the Thanksgiving family madness. I’m also back to writing regularly, and ready to go once again for the daily new release catch-up that I started last December. So think of today’s playlist as a laid back, “get ‘er done” one, though I will always stand behind the music selected. I got a fresh pot of coffee and a (for now) empty/asleep house, so let’s get to it.

• Biblical – “Fugue State”
• Albert King – “Blues Power (Live at the Filmore)”
• Le Butcherettes – “Demon Stuck In Your Eye”
• Horse Lords & Arnold Dreyblatt – “Advance”
• Blues Creation – “Sorrow”
• The Black Crowes – “Gone”
• The Brian Jonestown Massacre – “Cabin Fever”
• Moundrag – “Black Flames”
• Cleric – “The Treme”

Notes? Let’s see…Biblical just released an instrumental version of their killer (#2 on my list that year) sophomore LP The City That Always Sleeps as they ready their new album…I’ve been jumping into more blues records, and this one from Albert King immediately struck a nerve…Both the Blues Creation and the anniversary remaster of The Black Crowes and their third album amorica were recent vinyl pickups, as was the Brian Jonestown Massacre, which was accompanied by a new splatter edition of Spacegirl and Other Favourites, both recently repressed by Levitation…

Be safe, be good to each other. See you next week.
