New solo acoustic album by my "Southern brother" Will Kimbrough. Recorded during the pandemic, Will plays every instrument on the album (of course!). Great songs like "Late Great John Prine Blues"

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompson
supported by 6 fans who also own “Whisky Hearts”
John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser. Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this. Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?). With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP.

J.T.
by Steve Earle & The Dukes
supported by 6 fans who also own “Whisky Hearts”
The best I've heard from Steve Earle in a while. The songs have a subtler, earthier tone, tastefully rendered in authentic sounding country/blues/bluegrass stylings. 'J.T' reminds of earlier records like 'Feel Alright' or 'Train a Comin'. Deep grief, love and compassion is felt on the final track, the only composition from Steve, seemingly written for his son. The rest, composed by JT, do confirm what a great songwriter he really was.
