Had to do a fair amount of driving this weekend so listened to Johnny Dowd's Do The Gargon album in my car's cd player. Music that's simultaneously bizarre and "accessible". Dowd doesn't get any recognition in his native USA, IMHO, because (1) his southern/rural accent, and (2) stupid, unimaginative music writers who compare him to Tom Waits. I like Waits just fine but JOHNNY DOWD DOES NOT SOUND LIKE TOM WAITS!!!!
There, I got that off my chest. Any other Dowd fans on the board?
