Best of the year. I tried to find something wrong with this record and failed.
2. Luv Clowns – Love Clowns
A supergroup that’s actually super. That hasn’t happened since the Wilbury’s.
3. Vending Machine – Let the People Sing
Memphis’ nicest guy plays it’s meanest guitar.
4. Eddy Current Suppression Ring – Rush to Relax
Rock is not dead, just rock radio.
5. The Limes – Rhinestone River
Apathy never sounded so exciting.
6. Harlan T Bobo – Sucker
This isn’t a record, this is a diary entry set to music. I’m happy for Harlan, Anne and Nino.
7. Deerhunter – Halcyon Digest
I don’t usually like this sort of thing but the guy sitting next to me at work kept playing it and it stuck.
8. Cee Lo – The Lady Killer
I haven’t listened to this album but it’s got that Fuck You song on it, so it wins.
9. Holly and the Heathens – Holly and the Heathens
Jack Vest and Holly Cole should get married and make babies.
10. Redondo Beat – Meet Redondo Beat
I don’t know if this is really out yet or not, but I’ve heard it none-the-less and it’s so sticky sweet that I actually got a cavity.
Adam Woodard has played in every band in Memphis since the days of W.C. Handy (including with Harlan T.Bobo, Jack O. and the Tearjerkers and Star & Micey). He likes hot weather, cold drinks and and warm bodies. He makes a living most of the time doing something creative.
