We're back at it again people. In today's episode we're talking two albums that are very distinctly from two cities in the US that have become known for adopting their respective sounds. First up is Chicago Bound by the late, great Jimmy Rogers, the very man behind the world famous sound of Muddy Waters. Late nights at Chess Records making odd recordings here and there in the 50's lead to the creation of this album and we're sure glad to discuss it, harmonica solos and all. Next up after that we have Transistor Radio by M. Ward. An album that is distinctly made up of indie guitar licks, and calm vocals that could only come from Portland, one of the most indie rock towns in the US. A love letter to radio and it's ever shrinking ability to provide somebody a full education in music, this album explores influence after influence on M. Wards sound while never losing sight of it's ultimate goal to encourage all of us to keep a bit of radio in our lives. It's all boozy heartbreak and soft radio melodies this week on No Singles.
