Old Guys can still bring the Rock

The Dude is 50. The Dude is still creative. The Dude has my April CD of the Month

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Dig, Larzarus, Dig!!!

Picking up where his wonderful and painfully ignored Grinderman project left off but that shouldn't be much of a surprise since the man himself is painfully ignored on the radio. I will gladly admit that he is not for everyone. You might need to "dive in" and immerse yourself in the cd for awhile. Let it wash over you. Dare I say marinate yourself in NICK and his Bad Seeds. Enjoy the uncomfortable and the grandness and the intelligence. I mentioned Grinderman...here is a taste

This is his 14th studio album and if you don't know The Prince of Darkness from Down Under it is time to expand your cd collection. At a time when Paul is just skating by so that he can pay for divorce court this man will blow your mind. In a good way.

Enjoy the adventure. Plus the man was in Wings of Desire


a few cds that were close - that I thought about for CD of the Month were The Wood Brothers, Sun Kil Moon, and of course the Replacements Re-issues. Remember to get "Let it Be" if you only want to purchase one.
