People C'mon and Trashcan are the standout songs on the '07 debut from Delta Spirit, but the rest is enjoyable.

This could be a stretch for #5DebutAlbums0509, but it is Bill Callahan's debut under his own name. Count or not, I'll always use any excuse to listen to a Bill Callahan album.

I'm going to start my #5DebutAlbums0509 with Matt Sweeney and Bonnie Prince Billy. Superwolf has a good chance of making my list.

I'm wrapping up some loose ends for #5debutalbums50s60s. I love all of them but 3 are getting cut and one is moving into my short list. I'll let you guess which one is staying.

Hey #5debutalbums50s60s crew! How in the world do I untangle this mess? Perhaps you could help me by ranking the albums below 1-4. Will any of them make your list?

I baked my first ever Tarte Tatin yesterday. It wouldn't have been nearly as fun without Jacques Brel singing in the background.

This was a fun batch. Makeba can sleep tight with the lions tonight knowing I haven't cut her. Wolf is going to howl and the Isley Bros will shout to find they didn't make it to the next round. As for Joe, there's a light at the end of the tunnel & he's still in the hunt.

I started the day with four albums from the 50s. Diddley makes it through to fight another day. JB flamed out and I had to cut Cotten. She's great but won't get many votes. Holly is still playing so we'll just have to wait and see how it goes.

Next up for #5debutalbums50s60s is the Louvin Brothers' debut, Tragic Songs of Life. Knoxville Girl is such a classic.

Today I've explored music from County Donegal, Florida, London, Houston, Chicago, Brooklyn, back to London and now I'm taking a trip to San Francisco to shake it with Garcia. Later on I'll jet over to Belo Horizonte to check out Lô Borges. I'm enjoying #5debutalbums7074.

#5debutalbums7074 A critic said of Kristofferson, "He's the worst singer I've ever heard. It's not that he's off key - he has no relation to key. He also has no phrasing, no dynamics, no energy, no authority, no dramatic ability, & no control of the top 2/3rds of his 6-note range." Ouch.
