Joe Strummer & the Mescaleros’ Streetcore offering is a blast: the vibes of “Midnight Jam” is as mellow it is surprising. The opener’s melody stays in your head. Cat Power’s Moon Pix was a shot at redemption.
Elliott Smith’s eponymous 1995 disc and Either/Or continues the recent burrowing into this guy’s torrid creativity. John Coltrane’s Meditations caps off the evening with a lullaby.
The token “recent, happening, cool band” this week is Ambulance LTD and their debut disc.
