  Old school and new school country / alt country here. I love the cover picture – Bo Diddley of course.

  Boca Chica deserve more fame. I can’t find any good videos, so here is a Bandcamp widget instead.

  Been down south again. I played this mix for my sister as we drove around rounding up family members for a birthday party. When The Flying Burrito Brothers came on I told her the name of the band. That’s the name of a restaurant isn’t it she said? She was right, we drove by the restaurant a few minutes later.

  Many of these tunes are live recordings. I was impressed that Grooveshark had all the tracks I wanted in the versions I wanted, particularly the demo version of the VU track.

  Further to my master plan to have all my mixes up by Christmas, here is one I made earlier. The live Townes Van Zandt track is excellent.

  Once again this image is taken from a German spaghetti western.

  Nuggets 163 – Country + Western 5 

  New alt country from the Fleet Foxes, a track from the new Feelies album (yeah) and some vrai country towards the end. As is common with country, lots of cheating going down.

  Not all the tunes up just yet.. All tunes here now, including The Rev Gates and his congregation berating the midnight ramblers. Worth a listen.

  
  
  

  Its encouraging (to me) to see so many obese, hairy guys making wonderful music…

  Fleet Foxes

  The Acre

  Cotton Jones
