Stream & Download The U & U Show 211 Right Here, Right Now! (Download)
Iron & Wine – Tree By the River – Kiss Each Other Clean (2010)
- Forthcoming full length, Kiss Each Other Clean.
- This song blows away every song from his last album.
- Sam Beam: Singer/Songwriter from Florida
- Graduated from Florida State Film School with a Masters and for a while was a professor of Cinematography at Miami International University.
- Started recording in 2002
- 2002-2003: recorded mostly lo-fi acoustic music
- 2004-Present: Higher quality recordings and incorporated more instruments and creativity.
- All his music is great to hear on vinyl.
- Just signed to a major label and I really wanted to dislike this album b/c of that reason, but I can't!

Joanna Newsom - Good Intentions Paving Company - Have One On Me (2010)
- 3rd album. 3 disc.
- She broke out in a big way with her 2006 2nd album Ys.
- This is the most mainstream of a progression I've heard from her. It's almost like a late 60's folk rock ballad.
- Ys was very operatic in style.
- Unique beautiful voice.

Plants and Animals - American Idol - La La Land (2010)
- 4th album
- Montreal band.
- I had a big debate within myself on whether to play a song with this title or not, but in the end thought people deserve to hear a quality song associated with those two words for once.

Ryan Adams – Happy Birthday – Cardinals III/IV (2010)
- Brand new double album.
- Recorded in 2006 but never released
- He says it’s the best Cardinals album. The First 2 were quite good, but were followed by a couple crappy mainstream efforts.
- This is one of my all-time favorite artists. I hope this is a return to form.
