Listen Up to What's Down with GTB

Gheorghe: The Musical Forum is a great place to experience the latest and greatest in new music, deep cut diamonds in the rough from yesteryear, and music to which we have personal ties. 

To wit...

The new:

Rev. Peyton's Big Damn Band... with washboard for Rootsy and a Tally Ho tour date coming up for Rob and Marls...

You heard about Wild Belle here 5 years ago. Check out Natalie Bergman solo...

Dusting off older tunes:

Love this REK tune... seems very pertinent these days...

Rewatched a bit of the Richard Pryor doc Omit the Logic recently, heard this song close it out... lovely...

Personal ties:

More from Les...

Finally, want to read something good? Read the Arcade Fire's Will Butler's honest reflection in The Atlantic on his hesitance to play live despite yearning to do so.

Dig This

I've got a new boss. He's farther up my ass than my proctologist. Life, professionally anyway, kinda sucks for a minute. Life, as it does, will get better. I'm blessed in too many ways to count, so I'm not here to complain. But my blogging productivity factor (blopf) is far lower than usual, for which I apologize.

To make it up to you, enjoy this shit from Wild Belle. It's got some Janis Jopin, Edward Sharpe, hipster/beatnik weirdness going on, and I like it.
