Waterhouse Nick - Fooler (CD)
€20,00Quick ViewThe title of the sixth album from Californian singer-songwriter Nick Waterhouse is more than just the name of one of its tracks. The Fooler is the new album by Nick Waterhouse, and it’s a lot. Recorded by Mark Neill (Black Keys; Los Straightjackets; Dave Cobb) in Valdosta, Georgia, it’s a song-cycle of sorts, the arc of the album telling a tale of a city and its denizens. The result is a record that offers up new riches and fresh perspectives with every spin. From the hidden corners of ‘Hide & Seek’ and the roadhouse soul of ‘Play To Win’ to the primitive, attitudinal, chugging two-chord thrill of ‘Late In The Garden’, it builds inexorably to the drama of the title track and pulsing roll-and-rock of the final pay off, ‘Unreal, Immaterial’. Play it once and it sounds immediately like a collection of great songs. Play it again – and you will – and it feels like a novel or film slowly unveiling its secrets, kaleidoscopic in its narrative complexity. “Especially during this record, I started just becoming what Allen Ginsberg called a pure breath,” says the artist. “I was becoming pure breath with my ideas.”

Leinonen Marjo & BubliCans - Holy Roller (CD)
€15,00Quick ViewMarjo Leinonen & Bublicans -kokoonpano julkaisee Holy Roller -nimisen albumin 31. maaliskuuta Playground Musicin kautta vinyylinä, CD:nä ja digitaalisesti. Levyn ennakkomyynti alkaa tänään.
Albumilta kuullaan esimakua tänään julkaistun Loose Hat -kappaleen myötä.
– Kepeästi etukenossa kulkeva kappale hyväntuulisine väliosineen innoittaa sauvakävelijän sivakoimaan rivakasti toisenkin kierroksen. Pipo lentoon ja hymyä huuleen! Kappale saattaa osua tunnnehermoon niin, ettei paikalla, iällä, sukupuolella eikä sukupolvella ole merkitystä. Svengi elää ja jatkaa kulkuaan. Pysy kyydissä ja voi hyvin, Leinonen kommentoi.
Marjo Leinonen tunnetaan myös Balls-, Huff´n´Puff- ja Bigfeet & Lala-yhtyeistään sekä useista erilaisten artistien kanssa tekemistä yhteistöistään: Leinosen tulkintaa on kuultu esimerkiksi J.Karjalaisen, Maija Vilkkumaan, Asan ja Ismo Alangon levyillä.

Million Dollar Tones - Come On! (CD)
€18,00Quick ViewMillion Dollar Tones is a great eight piece group, very together, driven by a super hammer-line drum beat, producing really authentic recreations of rocking r&b and well-writen originals in a genuine Southern, all-black rock and roll style. The singer, Antti Pajula, is a revelation. He doesn’t try to ape Little Richard, but he uses his own voice to superb effect remodeling the music that was wonderful then, and is wonderful now.
The listener is immediately won over by hot guitar licks followed by meaty baritone and tenor sax rock ’n’ roll intersposed in the genuine rocking piano. Million Dollar Tones are not trying to be a copy, they are making fabulous rocking music and they are having a wonderful time doing it.Release Date/julkaisupäivä: 29.4.2022 -
