Love the Music Hate the Hypocrisy

I was wondering over the world wide web and came across a new post from one of my more well attended musical blogs (Aquarium Drunkard). One of the more recent posts from the aforementioned blog highlighted a great concept by an amazing artist by the name of Bobby Bare Jr.

I've always been a fan of Bobby's music ever since I picked up one of his works with the group Bare Jr. Since then he's been one of the hardest men in the biz rocking shows and putting out new material almost as fast as some men change lady friends.

With that said, Bobby Bare Jr. released his eigth solo album this week. "A STORM - A TREE - MY MOTHER'S HEAD" is some great songwriting and melody intertwined into some of Bobby Bare's best material. Tonight, Bobby Bare Jr. sings his soulful songs to the folks in the Los Angeles area and I'm sure they'll walk away with more than just a few fond memories, but also a kick'in album in hand.

I'd share more of the album, but don't want to ruin all the grandeur of what's inside for you. I'll just recommend you pick it up for yourself and let me know what you think.
