Odds and Ends

icky thump

I feel obligated to steer you to iTunes for the new White Stripes tune “Icky Thump.” Jack and Meg, representin’ da Ick! This is true Ickmusic. Preview it here.
Zack has a sweet post on his blog, Gonzo’s Music-o-Rama. It’s Prince’s ‘Camille’ album, a collection of songs he sings as that helium-voiced horn-dog (you know, like “Housequake” Prince).
Go check out Aikin’s cool music blog, Licorice Pizza, where he discusses the new Wilburys reissues and Robert Johnson, among a lot more.
Stereogum recently posted a cool tune by ex-Mott the Hoople man Ian Hunter, with guest vocals from Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy. Go grab it before it goes away.
Lablogotheque has a video of the Shins busking in the streets of Paris, singing my favorite tune of theirs, “Gone for Good”, among others.

thanks for the link to the new White Stripes (it’s weird, but I think it will grow on me) and thanks mentioning my blog!

This is cool… I’m anxious to see where Jack is going with this album.
