2011

What we’ve got here is a black, big hole 7″ record in a plain white sleeve. From a vinyl perspective it’s about as simple as it comes. What Jordan Valentine And The Sunday Saints prove with this release is that it’s the music pressed into the vinyl that matters.

I have the Jordan Valentine And The Sunday Saints full length CD and I enjoy it quite a bit (which reminds me, I should review that one of these days). This single is even better. The Sunday Saints’ soul music bleeds into the grooves. “Tell Me What’s On Your Mind” is a classic number with a nice horn arrangement. The band’s own “Follow Me” is the kicker here. It’s an energetic recording with a couple of shrieks out of Ms. Valentine that kill. I love it.

What’s on tap?

So you want to know what’s on tap for next week? Well, I’ll tell you.

I’m still trying to get caught up on 2011 shows, so be prepared for another action packed week. I’ve got a lot more to share with you from Aimee McGrath’s birthday shindig at The Rosebud. How about a video of The Irreverends doing “Annalise”? Sounds good, right? It is. Very good. Photos and video from Watts and The Downbeat 5? Yup. The Rudds? Check. If things get really nutty I may even make it to some photos of Jordan Valentine And The Sunday Saints. Crazy.

That’s it for this week. Have a good weekend!
