Lone Star Lowlands

Everyone should go ahead and do themselves a giant favor and buy Numero Group's "Lone Star Lowlands." It's a great compilation of really obscure music recorded in Beaumont, Texas back in the day. Everything (and i seriously mean everything) that Numero has ever put out is brilliant and should be owned by everyone, but as a Texan, i'm highlighting this entry. Check out this synopsis for God's sake:

"The songs themselves run the gamut; southern boogie rock, CSNY clones, British blues thunder, garage-psych hangovers, Morricone-esque supper club instrumentals, yacht rock, and what can only be described as Bobby McPherin fronting the Velvet Underground."

You know what sounds cooler than that? Nothing.

Sample and buy it here.

(Look at those people in the picture above. You know you want to party with them.)
