The Blind Boys of Alabama are one of six acts that will receive the Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement award later this year.

X and Dave Alvin got together to create the Knitters. Their first LP blew me away. The little cow punk I turned into. Love this Merle Haggard cover.

Alvin & Gilmore - TexiCali (2024) … keep on rolling …

[fortifiedinsound]

Masterful guitar playing instills in the mind the storytelling the lyrics bring here from this release from June. Dave Alvin and Jimmie Dale Gilmore at their best together.

Bentley’s Bandstand July 2024 By Bill Bentley Dave Alvin & Jimmie Dale Gilmore, TEXICALI. These two musical brothers have always had a strong connection. Dave Alvin covered the rock & roll waterfront a little more than Jimmie Dale Gilmore, but Gilmore dug into country a bit deeper than Alvin did coming up. But in the end they were both fanatics for each style, and when they got together it really…

August 24th Playlist

In anticipation of attending their show, we figured what better excuse to spin a few tracks from Dave Alvin and Jimmie Dale Gilmore, both solo and collaborative. So that covers Side A. The flip side is the usual hodgepodge of new and old, something from the latest Grace Potter album, Band and Dylan, and a track from a band that we missed from the 90's "Sparklehorse", but plan on digging into now, as the release of the long awaited last album from the late Mark Linkous is due next month.

Side A Howling at the Moon-Hank Williams Here in California-Dave Alvin July, You're a Woman-Dave Alvin & Jimmie Dale Gilmore Just a Wave-Jimmie Dale Gilmore Dallas-Flatlanders Wanda & Duane-Dave Alvin & Guilty Men Downey to Lubbock-Dave Alvin & Jimmie Dale Gilmore

Side B Masterpiece-Grace Potter When I Paint My Masterpiece-The Band Tom Thumb Blues-Bob Dylan Rainmaker-Sparklehorse My Morphine-Gillian Welch Legend in My Time-Laura Cantrell

Good news: I’ve been watching The Alvin Show and it has been a wonderful respite of happiness and charm

Bad news: There has been a new chipmunk song stuck in my head every day and ALL day (this is today’s)

You two do NOT have the same prescription there's no fuckin way
