A long time since I posted anything about Slaid Cleaves, this is another excellent and wonderful song and story, made all the better by the wonderful violin accompaniment.

Eric Bibb : Worried Man Blues
The soundtrack to my life, sort of.
Bill Morrissey : Birches
To celebrate the occasion of ordering my first CD by Bill Morrissey (who I wasn’t aware of until a few weeks ago), his collaboration with Greg Brown titled Friend Of Mine, here’s his track Birches (not on Friend Of Mine).
Tony Gilkyson : Death In Arkansas
Haven’t posted a lot recently, so I thought I start to get going again with this fine performance by one-time X and Lone Justice Member (and brother of Eliza) Tony Gilkyson.
Dave Moore : My Perfect Game
Sometime musical partner of Greg Brown, Dave Moore is held in very high regard round these parts (see here and here). He’s still keeping a somewhat low profile, with his last record to date released way back in 1999, so this 2014 recording from A Prairie Home Companion is very welcome indeed. His trademark accomplished fingerpicking, harmonica and sonorous, resonant voice are augmented here to very fine effect by an extremely tasteful, understated accompaniment by the show’s house band.
