Moozik week

So, since I've been such a lousay journaler lately that my friends list is dropping like flies, I thought I'd actually, you know, do something. So, I've deemed this moozik week and I will put up a song to share every day. (I will also put up some pics soon of the Great Garage Project, but that's boring to most.) Since I missed Monday (now is the time when projects and papers start rolling in for the class -- OMG, I'm a teacherOMFG and I have to look at papers AUGH!), I will put up two today.

The first is a rollicking bit of early almost-summer fun, Louisiana Down Home Blues by C.J Chenier and the Red Hot Louisiana Band. I defy anyone to not want to get up and two-step to Cajun or zydeco music, cherie. The second is by that recent flavor of the month, Bright Eyes, from a collection of special recordings by contemporary alt-country and folk artists. It's called Trees Get Wheeled Away and it kind of fits my mood today. I hope you like both!

Thank you! I'm loving some zydeco.

I know you're probably right about the flavor of the week thing, but I'm one of the emo-kids that's loved Oberst since he was 16 or so. So I mildly protest.

Muchas gracias. I'm listening to the first now, and enjoying it thoroughly.

Me? I don't understand fairweather LJ friends.

Hi - I friended you a while ago, but I didn't comment (sorry-tend to be kind of shy...). But, I thought I'd say that I've really enjoyed your vids and your journal.
And thanks for the music!! I really liked Louisiana Down Home Blues! Appropriate for the hot weather :)
