I'm listening to this cool hiphop compilation from 1999. What's special about it? Well, it's from (South) Korea. And in Korean. Pretty wild stuff! I especially like a song called "Deung Il Yo GaNun Gil". I have positively no idea what it is about, but it sounds pretty good. Does anyone here understand Korean?

J.J. Cale's Naturally - a true laid-back roots rock classic. J.J.'s minimalistic approach is clear from the get-go - it's been said that the songs on this album sound like demos. Did I already mention that this album is really laid-back? Because it pretty much embodies the definition of the word. It's never boring, though - the songwriting is top-notch. I highly recommend this album to anyone who likes roots rock even a little bit. Particular highlights for me include "Call Me the Breeze," "Call the Doctor," "Don't Go to Strangers," "Clyde," "Crazy Mama," "River Runs Deep," and, of course, "After Midnight."

And now, lyrics:
Here by the sea and sand Nothing ever goes as planned, I just couldn't face going home It was just a drag on my own. They finally threw me out My mother got drunk on stout, My dad couldn't stand on two feet, As he lectured about morality. Now I guess the families complete, With me hanging round on the street Or here on the beach.
The girl I love Is a perfect dresser, Wears every fashion Gets it to the tee. Heavens above, I got to match her She knows just how She wants her man to be Leave it to me.
My jacket's gonna be cut slim and checked Maybe a touch of seersucker with an open neck I ride a G S scooter with my hair cut neat I wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet.
I see her dance Across the ballroom UV light making starshine Of her smile. I am the face, She has to know me, I'm dressed up better than anyone Within a mile.
So how come the other tickets look much better? Without a penny to spend they dress to the letter. How come the girls come on oh so cool Yet when you meet 'em, every one's a fool.
Come sleep on the beach Keep within my reach I just want to die with you here. I'm feeling so high with you here. I'm wet and I'm cold But thank God I ain't old Why didn't I say what I mean? I should have split home at fifteen There's a story that the grass is so green, What did I see? Where have I been?
Nothing is planned, by the sea and the sand

At this very moment (as I type) I'm listening to this: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.p...toryId=15644497I love the searchable archive of past studio performances on NPR. It's great. Might try listening to Calexico next. This post has been edited by canis216: Oct 21 2008, 04:45 AM

I just purchased Calexico's new album, Carried to Dust. Here is a performance/interview from the great NPR radio show, "World Cafe". It's some interesting work.

Just found my copy of Rascal Flatts - Still Feels Good so I've been listening to that for the past hour or so.
