Easy Rockin Sunday with Jed and Lucia, Galaxie 500, Jose Gonzalez, The Album Leaf, and Kaki King

"World on Fire" by Jed and Lucia is a wonderful electronic folk number off of their album Candles in Daylight. It's simple, elegant, potent, and perfect to start a Sunday morning. Jed and Lucia - World on Fire.mp3 Have I told you lately how awesome Galaxie 500 was? No? Well they were quite the awesome band. "Here She Comes Now" is a Velvet Underground cover that can be found on the expanded release of Galaxie 500's 1990 album This is Our Music. Galaxie 500 - Here She Comes Now.mp3 I became familiar with this Kylie Minogue cover by Jose Gonzalez when he was profiled by NPR. Needless to say, it is a striking departure from the original. Also needless to say, I quite prefer this version. Jose Gonzalez - Hand on Your Heart.mp3 The album Leaf (Jimmy LaVelle) is set to release his latest album, Into the Blue, on Subpop Records on September 12th. "Always for You" is the most exquisite lead single from that album. The Album Leaf - Always for You.mp3 Kaki King is a classically trained guitarist who just released her newest album, Until We Felt Red on August 8th. "Yellowcake" is a beautifully haunting accoustic number, and I'd like to think it's about the delicious dessert and not nuclear materials. Kaki King - Yellowcake.mp3 Previous Mixes: 08.13.06 - Entrance, The Donkeys, Mountain Goats, Wilco 08.06.06 Pablo, Nouvelle Vague, Balun, Mattison, and Eric Bachmann 07.23.06 Kite Flying Society, Portastatic, SSLYBY, and The Pandas
