James Vincent McMorrow - We Don’t Eat (Special Edition) Hmm. Testing embedding from Rdio but I don’t like it. If you’re a logged-in Rdio user you can play the full song, but if you’re not it’s only a preview. Might make sense for Rdio’s customer acquisition but it’s a no-go as a method for me to share music on Tumblr.

The Avett Brothers - One Too Many Mornings (Bob Dylan) Brilliant! Like Mark Olson & Gary Louris, two voices that were meant to be together. This song is from the upcoming 4 disc Dylan tribute, Chimes of Freedom. Hat tip to Music vs Misery.
