JJ GREY FREE IN-STORE PERFORMANCE!
Acoustically Ours, THIS SATURDAY at 5:00
In between Mofro
gigs at Skipper's (Friday
and
Saturday night), JJ Grey has graciously accepted
our
invitation to play here THIS SATURDAY, 2/23
at 5:00! We're going to have
all kinds of fun with
this, including ticket and CD giveaways, for a start.
J.J. Grey doesn't need pyrotechnics or an elaborate
stage show to captivate an audience. All he needs is
a
microphone, a harmonica and a guitar or two and he'll
pull the crowd straight into his world of dirty, authentic
Southern grooves and deep fried soul. His lyrics are
reminiscent of the great southern poets- fiercely
personal, universal, and political without a hint of
superiority or preachiness.
Stop on by, enjoy an amazing in-store and get a
CD autographed by JJ himself! We're plenty-
stocked up on 2007's Country Ghetto and both
of the recently reissued, independent Mofro releases
on Alligator Records- 2001's Blackwater and
2004's Lochloosa.
And it goes a little something like this

Listening Post Features for February
Get under our headphones
Radiohead - In Rainbows
"in terms of songwriting, production and execution this
is Radiohead at its most inspired" - The New York
Times
"the band's most accessible release ever"-
Entertainment Weekly
"Radiohead's most emotionally resonant songs in a
decade" - Spin
"Radiohead haven't sounded this aggressive and
infuriated - so rock and roll - since OK COMPUTER, an
achievement that will be worth the usual retail price
when IN RAINBOWS comes out on CD in January."
#6 album of the year -Rolling Stone
"In Rainbows had no serious rival this year'" #1 BEST
ALBUM 2007 - New York Magazine
"surprising and addictive" ALBUM OF THE YEAR -
Mojo
MGMT - Oracular Spectacular
Forty years after the Summer of Love (and 30 years
after
the Summer of Hate), MGMT is celebrating the grand
re-opening of the third eye of the world with Oracular
Spectacular- a collection of
hallucinatory sounds and hook-riddled pop tunes for
the new millennium.
T.H. White - The Private Spotlight
T.H. White's second album, The Private
Spotlight, was
released in December 2007.
A ten-song collection that spotlights its author's
surplus of talents as multi-instrumentalist (and crack
guitarist), producer, songwriter, arranger, and
programmer, The Private Spotlight manages
that rare
feat: amalgamating an intriguing variety of sonic
textures into a cohesive - and fun - set of songs that
might just provide a soundtrack to the bustling city
from which it draws inspiration.
Joe Jackson - Rain
With its adventurous spirit and piano-based sound,
Rain boasts plenty of humor, swing and
sophistication among barbed social commentary and
even some punk-like rocking out.
Jack Johnson - Sleep Through The Static
The first single If I Had Eyes can be heard on
radio
stations throughout the country. Jack Johnson will
start a US and
European tour in June 2008. Each US tour date will
have an "Eco Village" supporting both national and
local environmental non-profit organizations (including
Climate
Counts, Surfrider and Vote the Environment).
