Undercover Black Man said...: ^ Welcome to my spot, Ash. I'm grateful for your comments.

You're off to a good start with your own blog.; January 16, 2010 at 2:21 PM
estiv said...: He's still got that one foot in the future, one foot in the past approach that helped make him so strong in the first place. Updating a Robert
Johnson song with a twenty-first century musical backing -- that's sharp.; January 16, 2010 at 5:38 PM

50 bucks says a white dude shot the video..Very art schoolish// though well produced/finished.
It's Your World is an album I listen/play part of weekly..; January 18, 2010 at 4:08 AM
Plane Ideas said...: BTW I hope everyone ignores David Simon's tired themes of urban decadence in his new pilot 'Treme"

I hated his racist "Wire" construct now he returns to the same playbook..

Boring redneck motherfucker...; January 18, 2010 at 11:01 AM

This is 21st Century Gil, brah. He hooked up with some British cats who put a whole new sound behind him.

Can't wait to consider the album as a whole.; January 18, 2010 at 11:17 AM
