High fives to Krister for getting me a copy of the Damien Jurado/Dolorean split 7″ available on their European tour. Big props for introducing me to Red Sparowes. I’m working the orders to get everything out quick in time for the holidays. I’ve added a Priority Mail option as well as a few new titles including Sufjan’s Illinois LPs, Half-Handed Cloud’s new 7″, a live Starflyer 59 cd, the new Mt. Eerie LP+CD, and the new Thanksgiving 3xLP. :::scott:::

Bosque Brown : Plays Mara Lee Miller is #113 on the CMJ top 200, the 5th week on the charts. Saxon Shore : Luck Will Not Save Us from a Jackpot of Nothing is #149, the 7th week charting. Thanks to everyone who keeps playing these releases. Bust magazine has this to say about the Bosque Brown album: “…after several listens, I now like Bosque Brown more than Damien Jurado…she squeezes all of the intensity of Cat Power into her vocals, while referencing her country-blues roots–Hank Williams twangs and Robert Johnson pangs–with such a sincere ferocity, you’d think her soul was spilling out.” I was going to see Chinese Stars play at the Unitarian Church tonight, but they cancelled. I’m home getting caught up on orders before I go away to Chicago this weekend. :::scott:::

Damien Jurado tonight at the Khyber in Philadelphia. See you at the show. Bosque Brown are playing their first official live show in Denton, TX. If you’re in the area, head out and support our newest band. Saxon Shore are wrapping up their tour with one last date on Saturday. The dates for recording with Dave Fridmann have been shifted due to Sigur Ros’ schedule and Saxon will be recording The Exquisite Death of Saxon Shore in mid-May with final mixing completed by the end of June. Unwed Sailor has changed the name of their forthcoming album to The White Ox. They’ll be back in the studio in May as well and are planning for a June tour. I’m finally listening to the massive 2 disc mp3 jam my friend Adam gave me. Thanks man! :::scott:::
