Sunday jazz.

does suburban nj count too?

In his short-lived but extraordinary life, Buddy Holly left behind a body of work so enthralling, his enduring influence is nearly impossible to overstate. The melodic joy and fierce independent streak at the core of his artistry is profoundly felt on Rave On Buddy Holly, a 19-song collection of indelible Holly covers by a rich assemblage of current musical visionaries and creative kindred spirits. Fantasy/Concord will release Rave On Buddy Holly June 28th, 2011.

more ephemera, this from my teen years:  i was obsessed with buddy holly.  so, thank you jason, this is awesome.

Tennis - Marathon

I am head over heals for Tennis thanks to Andrea. Obviously I’m not the first to mention this lovely group. I am so in love with the movement of new sounds coming from old ways of late 50s & 60s pop music.
