Fine and Malo


Listening to Music for All Occasions and What a Crying Shame recently, I really think The Mavericks were one of the few bands to straddle the mainstream country and alternative country worlds successfully. Raul Malo's solo career has been a little inconsistent, but I'd rank his 2010 release Sinners and Saints right up there with the best of his Mavericks stuff. Anyway, I tried to include a song from each of his Mavericks and solo releases along with a bunch of obscurities.


Matter Much To You Raul Malo
Are You Lonesome Tonight The Mavericks
Call Me The Breeze The Mavericks
Malo Bailare (El Merecumbe) Raul Malo
Here Comes My Baby The Mavericks
San Jose The Mavericks
Blue Moon The Mavericks
True Love Ways The Mavericks
World Without Love The Mavericks
Excuse Me (I Think I've Got A Heartache) The Mavericks
Love Me The Mavericks
Siboney Los Super Seven
All That Heaven Will Allow The Mavericks
You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go Raul Malo
Keep Moving On The Mavericks
Black Is Black Raul Malo (w/Los Straitjackets)
Haunting Me Raul Malo
Dolores The Mavericks
My Secret Flame The Mavericks
Since When Raul Malo

Rubáiyát


Since Jac Holzman is being inducted in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame on Monday, I thought it would be apropos to post the out of print 1990 Rubaiyat collection from Holzman's Elektra label. The set features Elektra artists at the time covering Elektra artists from (mostly) the 60s and 70s. While it's not a perfect collection, the choice cuts, interesting oddities and guilty pleasures outweigh the dross (I'll let the listeners decide which is which. :) It's a two disc collection, but just one (large) download.

Late update: http://try-to-be-amused.blogspot.com has Rubaiyat: The Originals which is the versions by the original Elektra artists. Nice!

Morrissey and Bobby Bare Jr.


Even if Bobby Bare Jr. hadn't covered The Smiths' What Differences Does it Make, putting Morrissey and Bobby Bare Jr. together is kind of an obvious choice (given that Bobby's song Monk at the Disco immediately conjures up, at least in my mind, The Smith's Vicar in a Tutu). And while obviousness may destroy comedy, sometimes obvious choices are the best ones.
