The Felice Brothers - Tonight at the Arizona (2007)


I love these guys. They're a folk-rock group (three of them are brothers) from some small town in upstate New York, and they really sound like it. They have this sort of rural music down; it's sort of a combination between Neil Young, Dylan, and The Band, more early Dylan than The Band on this particular release. Unlike their other albums, this is mostly ballads except the last track which is a live cover of "Take This Hammer" and "T for Texas" which is a really fun hillbilly-esque adaptation of some old folk songs. Favorites: "Ballad of Lou the Welterweight," "Hey Hey Revolver," "Rockefeller Druglaw Blues" and "Christmas Song." Their live show is wonderfull. mediafire
