Felix explains Twitter Spaces and his theory of the Swag Samsara. Then Will leads us through two pieces covering the Epstein case, one detailing the jury selection of Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial and one attempting to re-examine Jeffrey Epstein’s death and declare it definitively a suicide. Both are...interesting, in what they chose to say about their subjects and how.\

580 - The Prisoner (11/29/21)

Gray Hoodie is the debut album from french musician / composer Elise Mélinand. The album, written in Berlin then sequentially recorded throughout various locations in France, was initially inspired by the techniques she was exposed to after being recruited as part of Christina Vantzou's (Kranky / The Dead Texan) Little Prism Ensemble. Her newly adapted recording and composition tool, the laptop, is undeniably the norm today. However, it allowed Mélinand to better visualize her compositions while experimenting with techniques that Gray Hoodie so skillfully showcases. Crafted by Mélinand to tell a story of a friend who gave her a gray hoodie one cold evening. This gray hoodie was a symbol of their friendship and this album is said by Mélinand to be "A way to thank him for everything he gave me". Gray Hoodie showcases Mélinand's childlike voice and legato string work juxtaposed over frenetic experimental beat-work all injected into ten cinematic vignettes that exude the comfort and warmth of a sweatshirt on a cold day.

God Don't Never Change: The Songs Of Blind Willie Johnson is an eleven-track all-star tribute album that features inspired interpretations of the iconic slide guitarist/vocalist's most seminal material. Tom Waits, Lucinda Williams, Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi, Cowboy Junkies, Blind Boys Of Alabama (accompanied by Jason Isbell on guitar), Sinéad O'Connor, Luther Dickinson with The Rising Star Fife & Drum Band, Maria McKee, and Rickie Lee Jones all deliver deeply moving reinventions of Johnson's otherworldly "gospel blues" music.   

From Tom Waits' virtual embodiment of Johnson himself on The Soul Of A Man and John The Revelator to Derek Trucks' and Susan Tedeschi's reverent reading of Keep Your Lamp Trimmed And Burning to Lucinda Williams' slide guitar-fueled lament in Nobody's Fault But Mine to Luther Dickinson's spirited take on Bye And Bye I'm Going To See The King (with The Rising Star Fife & Drum Band) to the Blind Boys Of Alabama's soul-baring Mother's Children Have A Hard Time, this record is packed with incomparable recordings that speak as much to the greatness of the performers as they do the enduring legacy of Blind Willie Johnson.
