New Album Releases, 5-30-2006
New album releases are a little thin this week- but I consider that an improvement and a relief after the Satanic onslaught last week of Michael Bolton and the dreaded (but admittedly cute) Dixie Chicks.

There is one main promising new album, an all Carter songs record from Ralph Stanley calledA Distant Land to Roam: Songs of the Carter Family. These old tales of mortality and morality are the stuff the Stanley brothers cut their teeth on, and it's been noted by numerous folks already that it's a bit strange that he's only cutting a whole album of Carter songs a few months shy of his 80th birthday. Now, I'm not saying that Ralph Stanley ranks up there with true visionary artists like Miss Martie and the other Dixie Chicks, but at least he won't consider himself too good to be in the same record collection with Reba.

Les Claypool has an album this week, Of Whales and Woe. Hopefully this will suck as bad as classic Primus.

There's also a promising looking single disc compilation of Johnny "Guitar" Watson The Best of the Funk Years.
