September Soundtrack
Ray Lamontagne, the album: Trouble
I found this fellow from a fantastic Paste Magazine article where you meet a quiet New Englander, husband, father erstwhile factory worker who taught himself the guitar and how to sing to stave off boredom-wrought insanity on the assembly line. The music is part classic rock, part folkie acoustic singer-songwriter, part blues with a slice of pop to give it that addictive edibility. There are songs with focused frustration and quiet anger. Most the songs are simply love songs of fidelity and devotion. I listen to this album twice a day.
Benny Goodman, album: Greatest Hits RCA/Victor
Just good fun big band stuff, who knew you could "rock out" with a clarinet? Besides, it reminds me of my Grandma who loved Goodman and Tommy Dorsey and Glen Miller.
Yo Yo Ma playing Bach, album: Bach Sonatas for Viola De Gamba and Harpsichord
Cheerful celloist...perfect nap music for Atticus
Gillian Welch, album: Soul Journey
1930's-style folk-country
