Wayne Shorter's 2018 album, 'Emanon' is amazing. I only noticed at the weekend that it had gone up on YouTube...

Been listening to a lot of the Dubliners lately. Mostly when Luke Kelly was still alive. There is one that went far too soon

I only started listening to these guys last year, amazing musicians and Radie Peat (the female lead singer) has some voice. Hope to get to see them live this year.

A crash course in Delta Blues in one song.  The guitar playing and the voice are just magnificent and the lyrics - especially the bit about having nothing to say in church - are evocative as fuck.

 

Robert Petway - Catfish Blues

Love this type of music lately.

 

Was out in Lisdoonvarna with the Mrs a couple of months ago and the pub we were drinking in had a couple of banjo players in it playing. Over the course of the evening more and more musicians kept coming in till there were about 20 of them. I asked one of them what was going on and they said they were Appalachian musicians from all over America and Uk who came here once a year to play. Id never heard of Appalachian music before tbh. Ended up having a brilliant night, they played for hours.

Excellent live performance of an old Scottish song.

Sam Amidon did an album of reworked Appalachian mountain tunes and old folk songs, All Is Well, which is excellent.

Found a Barlow knife in the woods today.

 

Put me in mind of Bessie Smith's "'lectric chair":

 

 

I cut him with my barlow

I kicked him in the side

I stood there laughing o'er him

While he wallowed 'round and died

[Mook]

This is pure class...
