That old Johnny Burnette stuff is pretty great.

Last things I bought were the new Michael Yonkers and the Blind Shake LP, "Carbohydrates Hydrocarbons," which I HIGHLY recommend to every citizen of Earth, and an older Azusa Plane LP from 1997 that I got for 3 measly dollars.

It's been remastered and it was $15, and it's two disc. So I'm liking it on compact disc. Not to mention it's complete fucking driving music - YEAH.

Just pre-ordered:
 

Loren Connors - The Hymn of the North Star
LP Family Vineyard, FV47, US
To be released: August 7, 2007

Ever since his 1978 debut LP Gifts guitarist Loren Connors had been continually redefining the American blues and folk guitar. The Hymn of the North Star, a 180 gram 499 edition LP, is the first full-length vinyl release solely under Connors' name since 1990. Though in the years since he has recorded over two dozen solo and collaborative albums with Suzanne Langille, Jim O'Rourke, John Fahey, Alan Licht, Christina Carter, Jandek, Thurston Moore, Keiji Haino, Darin Gray, and others.

Connors creates a tapestry of transparent and haunting melodies that transform the Delta blues into a ghost-like apparition that never settles as it pours from the soul. These six pieces show Connors contemporary elegiac style at its peak of romantic minimalism. Self recorded in his Brooklyn apartment The Hymn of the North Star is saturated with subtle details and the barely there multi-tracks of guitar and bass floating in the background.

Guitarist Alan Licht appears on one equally opaque and richly harmonic air recorded in Glasgow, Scotland.

Artist Edition: 25 copies of the LP featuring hand drawn covers by Loren and special silk screened wrap around art will be available
(I'm hoping and praying that I will get one of these).

Someone I've yet to check out properly, apart from a rubbishly taped copy of the Haino collaboration. Where's a good place to start?

I bought some records I'd downloaded previously the other day, and some French chanson in a shop that I've not listened to yet that's in a house that isn't this one.
