Album of the Week

Jolie Holland, The Living And The Dead

The obvious choice this week. Picked up the LP at her show on Wednesday, and it's been on heavy rotation on the iPod and turntable since. My favs are the opener, 'Mexico City', and 'Your Big Hands.' Gotta love the Rolling Stones guitar wafting in and out of the latter song. This is a great album for hitting the road on long drives through dusty desert highways and winding country roads, or just lounging around the house on a sunny afternoon, with the windows open and the curtains flowing in the gentle breeze, dancing barefoot on the kitchen floor.
