Having survived a busy Thanksgiving weekend, I’ve managed to uphold a personal tradition … getting sick at the tail end of days off. Still, before the sickness I was able to pick up the latest release Cinder from The Dirty Three. With a whopping 19 tracks (featuring the likes of Sally Timm and Chan Marshall) I’m looking forward to a head to tail listen.

In addition, I also picked up a couple of used gems. Charlatans UK Between The 10th and 11th (one I had and lost) and Cranes latest release Particles and Waves which contained a companion DVD of four live songs recorded in London. This album is nice. It’s a horrible word to use to describe someone’s blood, sweat and tears but that was my first impression. Well, and that Jim should leave the vocals to Allison.

Hope your Thanksgiving was pleasant.
