Cool, New Music: Indie Music Playlist, May 2021, Part II


ALBUMS

Marianne Faithfull (with Warren Ellis) She Walks In Beauty. Marianne performing spoken word versions of her favorite classic poems from Keats, Byron, et al, accompanied by music. For fans only. Having said that, I will add that I am a mega fan and it's a real gem and well-worth checking out.

Big Thief Live At The Bunker Studio

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young Deja Vu (50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition)

Paul Weller Fat Pop

St. Vincent Daddy's Home

The Black Keys Delta Kream. Sure to be a big hit. It features the magnificent Kenny Brown, from R.L. Burnside's band, on slide. Will shine a bright light on electric country blues.

Norah Jones ...'Til We Meet Again. Live album, Norah singing and playing piano. Nice versions of "Cold, Cold Heart" and "Black Hole Sun".

Jack Ingram / Miranda Lambert / Jon Randall Marfa Tapes. Country/folk around a roaring campfire. I'm there!

Mdou Moctar Afrique Victime. Incredible psychedelic/folk guitar from Niger, featured on the new Superwolves album from Matt Sweeney & Bonnie "Prince" Billy as well as being one of the stand-out guitarists on Music from Saharan Cellphones.


SINGLES


Sharon Van Etten & Angel Olsen "Like I Used To"

Son Volt "Reverie"

Donovan "I Am The Shaman"

Soccer Mommy "Wide Open Spaces" (The Chicks cover)
