Name a performer you love

Though the sound quality will be widely criticized, Spotify, and other streaming services can be pretty good for finding new music.

I miss curation by people who aren’t simply trying to sell me the latest thing. That’s how I found Shovels and Rope. No station would play them but WNKU did.

Not a plug, per se, but I think the Roon radio function is pretty fabulous now - with v.1.6. It is great for discovering new music. Pull up a few disparate tracks you like and engage the “radio” function. Lots of fun and discovery should follow…

Regards.

Agreed. Sometimes it goes off the rails, but it’s ‘learning’ and improving each week or so.

YES. She is so freaking awesome.

A friend of mine did a documentary on Carolina Chocolate Drops called Don’t Get Trouble in Your Mind. Really good stuff.

Jim Lauderdale. Oh, Ry Cooder, too.

I have the Carolina Chocolate Drops records on vinyl. If you aren’t on the Nonesuch email list they usually have a 33-50% sale a couple times a year.

Nice @terzinator! I will certainly check out the documentary as soon as I have some free time this week, without distraction or interruption. Wishing myself, “Good Luck!”

Looks awsome…how can we watch the whole thing? Guess I’ll have to search around.

i think right now it’s just hitting the film-festival circuit. I’ll see if I can find out more.
