Richard Davies- Cantina



















The cantina is closed.

If Richard Davies' Telegraph was released today, the music blog community might suffocate in an ecstatic group hug. And rightfully so. It's as if Van Dyke Parks produced the Kinks on the sands of Newport Beach. Cultists admire the Australian for his excellent work with Cardinals and Moles. But this out-of-print 1998 Flydaddy release is even better.

Juana Molina's Son is one of my favorite releases of 2006. This
EPK enhances my appreciation of Molina's music.

Fans of the original hardcore Bloodshot honky tonk sound will enjoy this concert by the Gaslights. It's available as a Patchchord podcast.
