Welcome to another Friday of music new releases. There are a bunch to choose from, but sadly I am not real thrilled about any of them. That is probably a good thing since I had so many from last week that I am still enjoying. There is one I will listen to out of the bunch (highlighted in Blue) and the rest who knows if they will ever find the playlist. Hopefully with all to choose from, there is something that you will gravitate towards. Let me know what interests you are doesn’t. Thanks and have a great weekend!!
Tobymac – The Elements – (Forefront Records): Tobymac has always proven to me he is a talented artists whether it was with DC Talk or his solo works. The mixture of hip-hop, pop and rock is always a great combination. He spreads the word and makes it an enjoyable experience. This will be the only album this week that is a must listen, the rest…ehh!.
Live – Local 717 E.P. – (Kalvary Records): It has been awhile since any new Live material and it is much needed. I heard the song below and was intrigued. This might be first up for the day.

Tom Morello – The Atlas Underground – (Comandante): This one might get a listen…this song is pretty good.

Kurt Vile’s album is the one I’ve been right looking forward to, but there’s a few interesting releases here.
I’m curious about new Live music, so I’ll be checking that out later and I have that Graham Parker album on my list following some chat elsewhere… and a John Hiatt album, too? Jeez!

Have you listened to Live? I gave it a first and last listen earlier. Turned it off before Venus in Furs.

Yes. And it didn’t do anything for me either. Venus is way different than the other songs just an FYI.

I’ll maybe go back and listen to it – just to give the EP a fair chance! Ha!

The new Kurt Vile one will be on my turntable soon. Genuinely surprised at the idea of new Live material and will give it a whirl… haven’t really enjoyed much since The Distance To Here (phenomenal record that I need to listen to again)

An EP will be cheap, might be a good way to dip the toes!
