New from Stones Throw

I get email updates from Stones Throw.  Wednesday's email had two noteworthy revelations.

First, Stimulator Jones has a new album coming out on Friday!  Where's rootsy when we need him?



Sudan Archives has a new music video from her new album.  I'm not qualified to opine on the lyrics or the images in the video but the song hits hard, sort of a cross between "Paper Planes" and one of those Dave Matthews songs with the fiddle.

I knew this album was coming, but just learned it was imminent when messaging with Stim the other day and learning he was in LA for the release party. I'll get my copy next week and report back.

Whitney said...

I don’t know either of these acts, but based on these samplings, I’ll check ‘em out.

rob said...

kyrgios with a walkover into the wimbledon final. would he be the least popular champion ever?and if he plays djokovic in the final, is it cool to root for a meteor strike?

Whitney said...

I can root for Djokovic over this guy.

Professor G. Truck said...

thanks for the bouillabaisse updates, zman. i still don't understand the gun stuff, especially the "well regulated militia" portion of the second amendment. this doesn't sound well regulated (or like local militia training, like a volunteer fire department or something) at all. how come that part is never mentioned?

Whitney said...

RIP James Caan. Before he was hot-headed Santino, he was Brian Piccolo in a film that always makes me cry.

rob said...

it's oft-mentioned, dave, as equally oft-ignored by the you'll pry my guns from my cold dead body crowd.

rootsminer said...

Full Stimulator Jones album is up at zman's link. Dig it.

Dave said...

ok, also, why doesn't taylor fritz go through when nadal drops out. i feel like in team sports, that's what would happen. now that jackass gets an extra-long rest.

Dave said...

and i love djokovic. he's a great competitor. he just has a skinny villainous European face. not his fault. did you see him come over the net and help sinner up when he twisted his ankle? exact opposite of kyrgios.

Whitney said...

Djokovic looked more dominant as the match went on. Looking forward to the final.

rob said...

jumping on the river tomorrow morning for three days on interwebz-free communing with nature. keep the lights on for me.

Whitney said...

Somebody other than rob post something. Please.

Teej, we’re looking at you.

Or Marls.

Or Mark.

Or Danimal.

Or Squeaky.

Or OBXDave.

Or Dennis.

Marls said...

We could just post four the shut out of this thing while Rob is away.

Marls said...

I need a translation of my last comment.

Donna said...

Hey y'all, at my church office trying to find something (needle in a haystack kind of deal), and I chose Whitney's "757" playlist from years ago...I'm not very music savvy in this digital age, so having something to search on this blog to play gives me choices. Thanks! And I found what I was looking for. Victory!

zman said...

RIP Paulie Walnuts.

Whitney said...

Donna, that makes me happy! We're not just a bunch of pretty faces over here -- we're functional!

Mark said...

I’m openly anti-Italian (ironic considering my choice of spouses) but and ALL FUCKING IN on Paolo Banchero.

Whitney said...

I’m pro-Italian. Veal piccata, eggplant Parmesan, sausage and peppers, and fine Italian wine. Maybe even a little tiramisu and limoncello.

Mark said...

I like Italian food outside of the desserts (the worst), I’m out on Italian people and Italian soccer.

Whitney said...

Dave does rub people the wrong way…

Mark said...

Never met him but pretty sure I wouldn’t like him.

zman said...

Italian pastries are dry and nasty except for ganool. Italian women are my weakness. I swore them off.

Mark said...

This is why Z and are good friends even though we’ve only met once. I should’ve sworn off Italian women. Instead, I married one, and raised two.

Marls said...

Fucking Bizzaros

Professor G. Truck said...
