Sebadoh at the Paradise

Bradley’s Almanac has Sebadoh Live at the Paradise:

Overall, great set, nice and long, and not super-tight… but if it was, it wouldn’t have been Sebadoh. Nice to see a few post-Eric songs make it into the setlist (just as Dino Jr. has been doing with a few after-Lou songs). Won’t surprise you to hear my only complaint is: Needed more Loewenstein. Sure hope he’s working on another solo record.

In addition the MP3s, Bradley also points to his photos from the show.

When I was an undergrad at BU, I spent my first year living in Rich Hall on West Campus, right around the corner from the Paradise.

Glad to see they still have great shows.

Aquarium Drunkard

Another fantastic mp3 blog and podcast which has have been lamely late in recommending (this post has sat in draft mode for over six months now) is Aquarium Drunkard.

As the name suggests it is heavily influenced by “alt. country” artists, but with a pretty eclectic mix of classic and indie.

The podcasts are sometimes themed, sometimes have guests, sometimes are just pure music – but they are always and consistently great.

Wilco Rarities

Via Retro Music Snob, I discovered these wonderful posts on Pop Headwound:

Not only are the tracks great, but PH provides a nice little explication of each track, with source and often links for more info.

These tracks should help hold you over until Sky Blue Sky comes out next month.

I think my favorite is actually Let Me Come Home, with Tweedy’s voice cracking and all.
