  1. Lucinda Williams - Lonely Girls<\/a>. A slow, sad, sleepy song. Repetitive, and just barely avoids monotony because it sounds exactly like a Monday morning after a long vacation. So, I can, sortof, relate.\n
  2. Robyn Hitchcock - It's All Over Now, Baby Blue<\/a>. A Dylan cover, from his all-Dylan \"Robyn Sings\" album. I vastly prefer Robyn's covers to Dylan's originals - Dylan's voice and delivery just kills songs for me; Hitchcock's voice is infinitely better, which paradoxically lets one pay more attention to the words and less attention to the delivery.\n
  3. The Pogues - Jesse James<\/a>. A good, stompy, sing-along. I could probably do without the gunfight sound effects. And the reverb on that one guitar seems excessive.\n
  4. Flamin Groovies - Yes It's Time<\/a>. Hard to believe this one was released in '76; it really sounds like like something from '66. Though the same can be said about bands like Harlem<\/a>, who stick to that sound today.\n
  5. Anita O'Day - Love Me Or Leave Me<\/a>. Swingin. I can't tell if her voice is gravelly or if she's distorting the mic, but it's a nice effect. As always, it sounds like she's smiling while she's singing it.\n<\/ol>\n
