Hey y’all. How you been. I have enjoyed major summer and have barely had time to read and comment let alone post. Figured that this tune was a good segue to getting back on the keyboard. The Alabama Shakes are a band out of Athens, Alabama (not Georgia, nor Greece) with an outstanding album released in April of 2012. Instant classic???? I vote yes. Remind me of Black Keys with a dose of Sheepdogs.
Hope to post a few things in the coming few weeks, then get back on the beam full-time again in September.
Hold On

Cbc2. Best radio in Canada.
Wow, what a voice and talent!! Thanks once again, John!
We hit gold on occasion don’t we
Great pick today! Thanks for introducing me to this band!
You’re welcome Dave. How you been doing.
I’ve been doing pretty well. Busy with med school applications. I applied to 24 schools (and may apply to 3 or 4 more), and each time you make it through the initial screening, they send you a secondary application with at least one new essay question – most have 2 questions. It’s a big process, but totally worth it.
Looking forward to your big trip?
Absoltootley. We will have a blast, I think. We usually do. We love travelling on our own. Always interesting, always an adrenaline rush. The stranger in a strange land thing.
I just reread that. 24 applications. Wow, that must keep you crazy busy. But worth it for sure.
Nice, liked it a lot.
Rest of it is pretty good.
Yes, pretty good.
Dig this track! Checked these guys out a while ago and liked what I heard from the beginning.
Been listening to their other stuff. Good band. Think I be buying some more
