Two-word review: “Terrifyingly tuneful.” (Boston Globe)
And that’s a good thing!Nick Lowe – “At My Age”
Dave Edmunds – “…Anthology (1968-90)”For me, these two will always be linked.
Going to see Nick next week in Albany.Hi, Tim. Actually, it’s in a more “intimate” setting: WAMC Public Radio’s studio in Albany – – should be interesting!
In a word, Nick Lowe was superb last night. Just him & his guitar.

Excerpt (referring to his new record, “At My Age”):
The album opens with him singing, “In my life I’ve done things I’m not proud of,” in a convincing tone of redemption. But two songs later, he offers “I Trained Her to Love Me,” in which he takes great pleasure in damaging the women with whom he is involved. The song is evocative of his 1979 hit “Cruel to Be Kind,” in which he labored over the head games that arise in affairs of the heart. But while the older song romanticized psychological antagonism, “I Trained Her to Love Me” paints Lowe out to be a character who is both sinister and cynical.
“When we did that song everyone in the room was chortling away over it and said, ‘You know … Lucinda Williams could really do a great job singing this song,’ but the room went silent when somebody else said it’s much heavier when a man says it,” Lowe recalls. “That was absolutely right. You tend to naturally think that this is how a woman would put it, anyway; they train us to love them. But when a man says it, it’s just so much more chilling … So I didn’t ever show it to Lucinda!”
NY Times review of an NL show last month (the writer nails it, imho):
Mudcrutch – “Mudcrutch”
It took 30+ years for this Tom Petty-led group to release its “debut”http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/20/arts/music/20ligh.html?pagewanted=1&_r=3&ref=music
Grab your favorite beverage, set out on the porch, put this album on, & gaze at the stars 8)
I can imagine Lu’s cover of “Orphan of the Storm” (track 3)
A safe Memorial Day weekend to all
