Laura Jean Anderson goes down-home and rips up the blues - a podcast by Richard and Tobin: Self confessed music addicts
from 2019-08-03T22:00:45
Laura Jean Anderson returns to the show and blows us away with her soulful, bluesy, gospel-inspired White Stripes cover and finally wins over Richard. Her track is tantamount proof that she is an incredible vocal talent and her new EP Live From Studio Hotel Earth is bursting with more vocal prowess. The initial track off of the EP Lonesome No More is dripping with jazzy vox chops from yesteryear. There's more, there's a live one-woman-and-a-guitar rendition of Thinkin' 'Bout You which featured previously on the show. Go explore that EP, it's an official FTBOTRB Recommendation. We've got more than just Laura Jean Anderson however. Firstly we have a beautiful bookend from elfish songstress Rachel Ries, two eloquent and tender recordings showcase this poetic, compassionate songwriter at her best. Secondly, we have a Krautrock classic from Michael Bundt; insidious synth futurism that's a great introduction to this genre if you're new to it. Tobin is a massive fan! Wait... there's more New Music from Kalaido transports us eastwards to the lush tropics of Vietnam, via Portland, Oregon, USA. Motorbikes in Sapa is a wonderful foray into the world of Eastern musical instruments and delights with every note. Furthermore, we play the Jack Bruce classic Theme For An Imaginary Western as performed by Mountain. Straight from the vinyl. It's the first instalment of our monthlong celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Woodstock. We play tracks from the world's most famous music festival throughout August. Talking Heads are our Record Box Classic this week and we top everything else off with Royal Jelly Jive and the track Pteryophora. Join us for an eclectic show full of music that requires much further investigation! And last but not least, welcome aboard Young Chris, keep listening, especially when you shouldn't be. Rock 'n' Roll Chris, pure Rock 'n' Roll.
