Will Popularity Destroy Us?

Hello.
We suspect the world will get to know the Avett Brothers in the upcoming months. The shaving of the faces, the combing of the hair, and most of all the production of an album by 'the' Rick Rubin. SO in our opinion this spells the end of the Avetts as something of a touring phenomenon with good albums. But, we've been wrong before.

Here's the first single off there album being released late this summer. Yes, the title is "I and Love and You".



I and Love and You - Avett Brothers

Enjoy.

Love's the Greatest Thing

Hello
Here's a random Blur song for you today. Great opener to their penultimate album, 13.



Tender - Blur

Enjoy.

Original MJ Gone Forever.

Hello.
The human phenomena that was Michael Jackson has passed on, leaving on some of the most original, catchy music ever created. Here's a lesser played MJ song, our friend Gusphyl's favorite.



Dirty Diana - Michael Jackson

Enjoy.

Summertime, Officially

Hello.
Pagans rejoice (oh, we know some who read this blog qualify), the solstice hath arrived and probably passed by the time you read this. However, with the calendar commencement of summer we here at the Unincorporated decided to post mini mix celebrating the the season.

Let's get it started with a cover of a John Hartford from Sara Watkins, formerly of Nickel Creek. She was on Prarie Home Companion this last week.


Long Hot Summer Days - Sara Watkins

The Rural Alberta Advantage is a band from Canada. Truth in advertising peoples.


In the Summertime - The Rural Alberta Advantage

Wait is it 1997 again and the summer radio? Whatever happened to The Sundays?

Summertime - The Sundays

To finish this seasonal melange, two of the best songs ever, let alone summer-themed. It's always a great post when the Punk'N Center can finish it off with Eddie Cochran and Sam Cooke.

Summertime (part 1) - Sam Cooke


Summertime Blues - Eddie Cochran

Greetings from a Far Shore

Hello.
Shout out to our friends N and V away in South America. As they are drenched in the humid air of the Amazon River Basin, we were graced with a much appreciated telephone call. We hope they stay safe and stay healthy, as we do all Unincorporated readers.

In honor of our Dynamic Duo doing great work in Brazil, here are a couple songs inspired by that large nation. First off a selection from Os Mutantes, a revolutionary sixties Brazilian band that still sounds unique. And second a song from Guillemots with Brazil in the title. Catchy to the max.



Ave, Lucifer - Os Mutantes



Trains to Brazil - Guillemots

Thanks for calling V and N. Glad you are doing well.
Enjoy.
