Right now, I am listening on Jamendo and I must say that I like what I hear. You may recall that I wrote about this shortly ago, with a recommendation of Josh Woodward’s The Simple Life album. Tonight, I am listening to Robin Grey - Only the Missile. Thanks to Drew’s recommendation of Ruth Theodore’s album, Robin seems to have found this reference and left a comment, letting us know about his own effort. I am listening now and am totally entertained. The bluesy, folksy tones of his music is a great match with his voice, which ranges from soft and silky to deep and gravelly to raspy (reminds me of on of my favorite beers, Fuller’s London Pride - rich, deep, complex, smooth, with a slight edge, like that gentle uncle that would allow the kids to jump on him and play with him to exhaustion, who would defend their lives with conviction and courage).

Although I am far from rich, I just donated $10.00USD to BellyUp4Blues, as they are low on funds (I had $13.xx CDN in my Paypal balance). This station is run by volunteers and funded by listeners. Its got some of the best blues playing on any Shoutcast feed. If you like blues, consider donating to this site, as they produce quality stuff on a volunteer staff.
And, hey, what a birthday present! In 3 days, the station will be 5 years old!
