This week I have been listening almost exclusively to Canadian Bruce Cockburn's 2005 instrumental acoustic guitar CD, Speechless. By compiling only the instrumental songs from his more-than-three-decade career and adding a couple of new ones he got a CD-worth pretty painlessly. It ranges from early 70s folksy stuff through 80s jazzy into 90s back-to-the-delta on a resophonic. Nice in the car.
Through MySpace friend requests, I got to hear Rachael Yamagata, who I enjoyed and is in the same vein as Madeleine Peyroux, one of my newer favorites who sounds very Billie Holliday-ish. Also The Electrolites for some Beatle-y pop.
That's all for this week, I guess. See yas next time.
