Del Shannon's The Further Adventures Of Charles Westover: This album has been blowing my mind lately. The man behind the number one smash "Runaway" hit a major chord in 1968 with this cult masterpiece. It's a stunning array of psychedelic pop precision, dense orchestration, swaying horns, groovy sitar, and organ tokes, all topped off with Del's trademark vocal style and stellar song craft.
The San Francisco scene: This free-spirited city has unleashed some of the best rock 'n' roll over the last few years. Totally on fire! The Fresh & Onlys, Thee Oh Sees, Ty Segall, Wooden Shjips, Sonny & the Sunsets, Grass Widow, the Mantles, Jealousy, etc. I'm running outta room here. It's a whole generation with a new explanation!
Dusted magazine: This voluntary review site is updated daily and contains informative, critical, and intelligent essays on new music. I appreciate the subjective nature and colorful language that comes across in the reviews. I don't wanna to be told what to like, just wanna to be told what it sounds like, dig? Also posts cool features such as "Still Single" (tons of 45 reviews), interviews, and weekly lists from contemporary bands.
