Wilco - iTunes Session

Wilco headed into their own loft in Chicago last December to record this tight little iTunes Session, a short live-show-without-an-audience, essentially.

Highlighting almost half of The Whole Love (Dawned On Me, Born Alone, I Might, Black Moon, Whole Love) and two sorta-oldies War On War and Passenger Side (well, okay, that one truly is getting on in age now), the real surprise here is Cruel To Be Kind with the Basher himself, Nick Lowe, taking over lead vocals. It’s kind of a neat payback of sorts — Wilco’s first single for the new album featured Lowe’s I Love My Label as its b-side, and now he gets to front the band.

There’s little doubt there’s some early Lowe catalog DNA in Wilco’s more pop-oriented moments, as much of an alt-country poster child as they may be.

While the set as a whole isn’t going to be a drastic departure from the album versions for less familiar fans — because Wilco is one tight, efficient live unit — die-hards are going to want this just to hear the tracks played with a little more abandon, or maybe that modern-day Wilco version of Passenger Side, and maybe to marvel again at singer Jeff Tweedy’s excellent whistle. It is excellent.

Etta James - Mystery Lady: Songs of Billie Holiday

The popular Etta James usually performs raunchy single-entendre blues, so this surprisingly subtle outing is a real change of pace. She sounds quite laid-back on a set of ballads associated with Billie Holiday and utilizes a jazz rhythm section led by pianist Cedar Walton plus three horn players, including the great Red Holloway on tenor and alto. James makes no attempts at exploring uptempo material or scatting, sticking to soulful interpretations of the classic ballads. Despite the lack of variety in tempos, the music is quite satisfying. - allmuisc.com

The Rolling Stones – Hampton Coliseum (Live 1981)

The Rolling Stones have released their second official bootleg album, Hampton Coliseum (Live 1981) through StonesArchiveStore.com. Following the success of their first official bootleg The Brussels Affair in November, the band have now released the notorious, and oft bootlegged show recorded in Virginia on 18th December 1981.

Remixed by long-time Stones collaborator Bob Clearmountain, who was involved in the original recording of the concert, the album is available as a FLAC or MP3 from StonesArchiveStore.com for fans around the world, and from Google Android for fans in the USA as an MP3.

The concert took place on Keith’s 38th birthday on the same night the show was filmed for pay-per-view television. The concert achieved notoriety when a fan invaded the stage during (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction heading towards Mick, Keith intervened by hitting the intruder with his Fender Telecaster.

The line-up for the concert was Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Ronnie Wood, Bill Wyman and Ian “Stu†Stewart, along with Ian McLagan and Ernie Watts. - rollingstones.com
