Friday Random Ten: Pithy Commentary Edition
1. Lord Franklin--Pentangle.
2. Fountain of Sorry--Jackson Browne. This song starts off strong, but good lord it's long...
3. Goodbye, Everybody--Lots of folk musicians rounded up by Alan Lomax, including John Davis, Willis Proctor, Bessie Jones, and Jerome Davis, among others. Short and sweet.
4. Mourning Air--Portishead.
5. Lullaby--Tom Waits. In honor of his current "let's just skip the West Coast" tour. No, I'm not bitter, thanks for asking.
6. Rebellion (Lies)--Arcade Fire. "Sleeping is giving in, no matter what the time is." A parent's/grad student's anthem.
7. Boppin' the Blues--Carl Perkins. Must be goin' round.
8. Submarine Bells--The Chills. I think I first bought this album after reading a review of it in my college newspaper by the now-Hugo-nominated John Scalzi. I'm on about my fourth copy now. People keep stealing it. Yes, it's that good.
9. The Bristol Bridegroom--Diane Dugaw.
10. Coffaro's Theme--Bill Frisell (with Dave Holland and Elvin Jones). Jimi Hendrix meets John Coltrane. The results? Cool fusion.

If it's any consolation, Mr. Waits skipped the East Coast too. It's pretty rare for any act to go straight (and only) to the states in the middle.

Nope, no consolation at all. But thanks for trying!
