2 great artists, 6 great albums: 3 from Richard Hawley who I saw last week, and 3 from The Felice Brothers who I am seeing in January. If there was a Desert Island Discs for albums I'd be happy for many months marooned with these six. If I had to save one from the waves it would probably be the eponymously named The Felice Brothers album.
All these albums have featured in the blog before so this week Eddy has taken the unusual step of providing links to previous logs and reviews...
Richard Hawley Truelove's Gutter
Richard Hawley Standing At The Sky's Edge
Richard Hawley Coles Corner
Felice Brothers The Felice Brothers
Felice Brothers Tonight At The Arizona
Felice Brothers Yonder Is The Clock
As for the live gigs: Hawley was great with a full on wall of sound guitar rock band. Much of the set was drawn from the psychedelic rock of Standing At The Sky's Edge, and also the new album Further which I have not heard yet but understand is similarly rock orientated.

As for the Felices I am in slight trepidation as brothers Ian and James have formed a new band with a new direction. It will disappointing not to hear classic romps like Frankie's Gun and Whiskey In My Whiskey but I understand the new album Undress is great too - one due for a very overdue review at Bamyasi Towers.
