Sonny Smith -- This is my story, This is my song
Sweet, touching country/folk/singer-songwriter -- Local boy who writes flowing, meandering story-songs that draw heavily on old-time country but somehow mixes in elements from jazz and lounge (stand-up bass, brushed drums, vibes on some songs). Low, gravelly voice like Dylan or Waits but much more melodic. Genuine and sweet -- I really liked this album -- PICS: 5, 3, 2, 7, 8
1. guitar, brushed drum, vibraphone, longer, female back-up vocs, meandering
2. sweet, slow, country-ish, guitar + piano, male/female duet
3. banjo, folky, backup vocals: carrie from the breeders
4. slow guitar, sad lyrics -- despair, darkness
5. great fiddle! plus trombone, wandering lyrics
6.all whistling + guitar!! 2 min long
7. features ralph carney on clarinet and flute -- good!
8. cute story about wanting to be a superhero
9. sad accordion, sad story about drinking
10. another goofy story about goofy friends
11. sweet lyrics, fiddle, noodling piano
12. piano, instrumental, slow
