Now with syndication!

Stuff I Like
"Back To Your Heart" - Dinosaur Jr

I am currently obsessed with this song - I'm going to go with this one for "Favorite Lou Barlow Tune." It's making me hopeful for the rumored new Sebadoh stuff (Jason and Lou have committed to a new Seb record in the next year or so--fingers crossed extra hard that Gaffney's on board and that they tour...), and it's making me practically giddy with anticipation to be seeing them next weekend...

This is also an opportunity for me to test the relationship to the newly added SYNDICATION (click GIMME at the top of this page), and Facebook. If you've somehow found your way here because of my Facebook page, let me know.

I downloaded a newly-posted bootleg on Jason Loewenstein's website, which is basically a live version of his record At Sixes and Sevens from 2002.

It's awesome.

I'm loving this song:

Stuff I Like - Song O' The Day
I'm A Shit (Jason Loewenstein)

Someday I'll have time to post full podcasts again.
For now, download the bootleg, for free. It's GOOD.

Now with more Gaffney!

If you're reading this, you know that I finally heard back from Eric Gaffney about the possibility of Fields of Gaffney (which is just him and two dudes playing his songs) playing here, after thinking that the trail had gone cold for good. This is still no guarantee that it'll happen, but I am hopeful, as he was the one to (re)initiate contact.

While you're crossing your fingers, why don't you check out a couple of podcasts of his material, in preparation?

Okay, so I totally neglected the old Stuff I Like blog, and haven't posted a podcast on there since November. The good news for you is that I do have several podcasts in the can that are just waiting to get themselves posted here...the bad news is that I have very repetitive tastes.

Let's start with this year's favorite, Eric Gaffney. How blown away by him have I been this year? Yeah, I know.

It would be unethical for me to post the whole CD here, though if I did, I'm sure you would enjoy it; instead, I've selected a few songs that I particularly like and feature them here on the Stuff I Like - Uncharted Waters Tidbits Edition.

1. In Line
2. Cold Weather
3. I Want A Woman
4. Baker Street
5. Paws On, Paws Off/Life Isn't Fun Anymore

Click on the player to get your Gaffney on...

Thumbs, up or down? His contact information is included in the liner notes to Uncharted Waters, so I'm sure it's fine to share it here, and what's more, I'm sure that he would enjoy hearing what you have to say.
