That song is called “Don’t Let Go” from The Ghost Club – off an album released back in April called King Whatever – I’ve been liking the whole sound from beginning to end. Be sure to check it out if you get the chance.

This past May, Judah and the Lion came out with a new album called: The Process / An hour of music over 19 songs / So basically, they haven’t been on my radar for more new music.
(Missed Music Monday opener)
Mid June, I was on this one, they teamed up with the band: Joseph to release the song: “Measure of A Man”
(“Measure of A Man”)
Mid July, I missed this one “Body and Soul”
(“Body and Soul”)
And then on Friday, I didn’t talk about this one – it’s the third release from their deluxe edition of The Process, due out on September 5th – song is called “New Tattoo”
(“New Tattoo”)

(“Vacation” Dirty Heads)
Not my typical set-up, but I’ve still got some new music to get to
(“Vacation” Dirty Heads)
(Morning Babble Intro)
Happy Weekend and as I enjoy myself a Cloudy & Cumbersome – I cheers on to others who might be vacationing as well (“Vacation” Go-Gos) I don’t think I’m going outside again like that. Got cooked on my only beach day this past week. My fault though – I need to apply the sunscreen before going to the beach. (“Black Hole Sun”)
Enough about me. I heard the yawns.

New Music Friday:
I put together a Spotify playlist of the songs that I talked about and thought about today for New Music Friday. Click here for that!
First up – Jack White (clip) he has his own record company called Third Man Records as well as exclusive benefits for his Vault members, which I am one. Recently, his new album was slipped into the orders of Third Man customers to the stores and then to some Vault members – special mail deliveries were sent out (clip) I was not as fortunate as Ralphie. No decoder ring for Brent. I had to wait like every one else for the digital midnight release of Jack White and his album – No Name. (picture) That looks so cool – I need to get me the vinyl next. Nearly 45 minutes of new music spread out over 13 songs. The one being pushed by Spotify is “That’s How I’m Feeling” (clip) I’ve listened to the entire album like 3, maybe 4 times. I also like the song “What’s the Rumpus” (clip) Sorry – that’s the definititon. I remember growing up and my parents always saying “This isn’t a rumpus room”? (clip)
Just last year, Killer Mike released his album – Michael – which won him the GRAMMY for “Best Rap Album” (clip) In a recent press release that I learned about through the Pitchfork website (thank you to Jazz Monroe) Killer Mike said, “I had a year to live with Michael, and I realized I had more I wanted to do with this sound before moving on.” (“Humble Me” clip) That song is called “Humble Me” but there are 9 more songs on this new record titled Songs for Sinners & Saints. BUT – the album is not being attributed to Killer Mike but instead Michael & the Mighty Midnight Revival aka Killer’s Mike’s gospel group (clip)
Couple weeks ago, I played the Peck and Beck song “Death Valley High” (clip) That was like the 6th release off of Orville Peck’s upcoming album – Stampede. Today though – we have all 15 songs to enjoy and I will (clip) That Willie Nelson duet will forever make me smile Anyway – the next song being pushed forth off the album is the duet with Debbi Dawson. This one is called “Back at Your Door.” (clip)
Several quick hits of new music: Sopie Allison, who goes by Soccer Mommy, has announced her new album (4th overall as the Soccer Mommy) called Evergreen which arrives on October 25th. New song off the album is available to hear – it’s called “M”. Yes, the letter “M” // One of my favorites – Father John Misty – is releasing a career-spanning greatest hits album called – Greatish Hits: I Followed My Dreams and My Dreams Said to Crawl. The only new song being found on this album is called “I Guess Time Makes Fools of Us All” but this song will also be appearing on a whole new album later this year. // Caribou has shared a new song, “Volume” which did a makeover to the hit song from 1987 – “Pump Up the Volume” (clip)

A guy’s worst nightmare to hear today “Happy Friendship Day!”
That’s what it is. Some dude just got tagged in a picture from his girl “friend” – fun.
By the way, that’s Andrew Gold who does that Golden Girls Theme Song. He also does another popular song that some of us will be hearing rather shortly:
(Spooky, Scary Skeletons)
I saw Halloween candy in the stores this past weekend – crazy.

(“Hard Working Man” cut)
From 2022, that’s “Hard Working Man” off the Marcus King album – Young Blood. Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach produced it, so I was all over it. Somehow though, I totally missed the most recent album of Marcus King.
(Missed Music Monday opener)
I actually have two saved albums on Spotify of Marcus King, but when his Mood Swings album came out this past May – not on my radar.
(“Delilah” cut)
Sort of sounds like Cee-Lo / I know – neither one looks like one another
(“Hero” cut)
Nevertheless, if you want some bluesy rock sounding music with rich guitar. Any album from Marcus King is going to get that for you.

That is a new song. Just heard it today. Loving it already.
(“Sidecar”)
(Morning Babble Intro)
Happy Weekend – welcome to New Music Friday. We’ll get to that new song shortly. First – let’s talk about . . . who am I kidding
(Countdown Video)
New Music Friday:
I put together a Spotify playlist of the songs that I talked about and thought about today for New Music Friday. Click here for that!
Batting lead off, Vegas rapper, Big B just dropped Wellness Check, his first album since pandemic times (“Time” cut) Back in 2013, I enjoyed The Dirty Heads as they sang with Big B on their song “”Hangovers With You” (clip) Another band that has a similar sound to The Dirty Heads can be heard on this album’s cut which I also played at the very beginning (clip) Guesting on the song is G. Love and the Special Sauce along with Peachole. Their song is called “Sidecar” – loving it. (cut of “Pretend”) Now that is today’s Spotify song push which is called “Pretend” & is another duet for Big B who is joined by a favorite of mine, Killer Mike
(“Hodgepodge” meaning) Grace Bowers has a band and its called The Hodge Podge (clip) ‘Tell Me Why U Do That’ was the first release off the group’s upcoming album called Wine On Venus which arrives fully on August 9th – so close (“Wine on Venus”) Today, we received the 3rd release of the album and its called “Dance to the Music.” (clip)
Ice Spice has released her Y2K album – don’t blink though – it’s 10 songs spread out over about 23 minutes – as my wife stated – that’s an album-ette. (“Phat Butt”) Don’t worry – there’s more. I didn’t play the whole thing. By the way, it’s called Y2K because January 1st 2000, the date of Y2K is her birthday. Today’s push from Spotify is her duet with Travis Scott called “Oh Shhhh” (clip)
It’s official. Amy Shark has completed the blink-182 Collaboration Trifecta. On her first album, she got Mark Hoppus to sing along with her “Pyscho” song (cut) Shark’s sophomore album included blink’s little drummer boy, Travis Barker, on the her song “C’Mon” (cut) So, could she do it. Get Mr. Tom DeLonge to join in on a song? I already told you, so this now lacks suspence. I do like their song together though. It’s called “My Only Friend” (cut)
Several quick hits of new music: The Pixies have announced their first album with new bassist Emma Richardson. Due out in October 25th is The Night the Zombies Came. I like the name of the new single released: “Chicken” // JD McPherson released a 2nd track off his Nite Owls album which will becomes available on September 27th. The song is called “Shining Like Gold” // Just in time for the Olympics because well it’s tagged the Official Olympic song is the one from Gwen Stefani and Anderson .Paak – this is “Hello World” (clip)
