Josh Rouse er musikalsk lækkerhed

Er vågnet på min (tiltrængte) fridag foran “the Smooth Sounds of Josh Rouse” – en rigtig fin koncert-DVD. Har hørt en hel del af hans plader på det sidste – og de er gode…
Pandora definerer godheden som “mild rhythmic syncopation, acoustic rhythm piano, mixed acoustic and electric instrumentation, a vocal-centric aesthetic and major key tonality”
Jeg synes bare det er for lækkert, så ham skal jeg helt klart høre live – og ventetiden bliver ikke lang, for han spiller d. 14. maj i Vega (søndagskoncert, meget passende). Tjek det ud – og tag med i Vega!

En lyrisk smagsprøve: Michigan
Mom and Dad,
Living in Michigan with Uncle Ray
He and Aunt Terry said I should write
Said I should write
I should phone you
Just don’t have that much to say
See I’ve been bartending about three nights a week
A stand-up place and they’re good to me
Still I stay bored, most all the time
‘Cept for the cards that Ray and I play
He’s the only friend ive got in this place
Still it’s better than Wichita
Aunt Terry, shes fine
She wants you to know she wrote a song
She’s picking up where she left off
She’s picking it back
And its been years since shes tried
God has it really been that long?
Mom I’m sorry I was wrong
Dad I’m sorry I just couldn’t stay in that town
Where everyone knows everything about me
Michigan, she’s alright
Still I haven’t found a love
Just want to be happy
Love, your son
Just try to be happy
Love, your son

    Bestemt ikke.
    Men hvorfor pokker er han ikke at finde i den danske iTunes Music Store?
    Kunne selvfølgelig også bare booke en billet til Vega, som kompensation for dette (og at jeg missede David Gray-koncerten)

    Jaaaaa! Vega, Vega, Vega! (Ellers er bibliotekerne overraskende velforsynede med Josh Rouse CDer, lige til bestille, hente og putte ind i iTunes – helt legalt!)
