Another example of a cool song that was released in the 70s but seems to have another level of success after being re-released by the Numero Group or Light in the Attic a la Donnie and Joe Emerson or Pastor TL Barrett.

1. Hearing Moanin & Screamin for the first time on the radio late one night otw to a sneaky link was just one of those moments…. One of those real mind blowing moments. This song was a vibe that I had been looking for for a long time.
Linked in post (I promise one day I’ll be better at link management I’m still figuring it out
2. And This one, Look Way Back, also by diamond joe, may even be better:

Not much is known about Joe Maryland (diamond joe). Like this is literally the only picture I have even been able to find of him. I couldn’t even find when he was born or died. New Orleans guy, just like me!
he has Less than 1,500 monthly listeners on Spotify. It’s just incredible when talents like this, real real talents, people truly connected with their soul and able to express it honestly, go mostly without recognition. But A tale as old as time I guess
RIP him ❤️

a couple weeks ago driving from Vermont back to NYC I was listening to an episode of Theme Time Radio, Bob Dylan’s 2000s radio show, and he introduced a song by Lou Reed I’d never heard before. So it’s like Bob himself showed me this. It’s a cover of an old American standard but Lou of course makes it his own.
hbd to the greatest

Just because I see a window to get across the street doesn’t mean you don’t have to look both ways. I’ve been on the other side of that though…

I met Erin (@RIOTGRRRL) and Jake (@SLOWDAZZLE) last year after I started using PI.FYI—we organized a meetup before a Jonathan Richman show and immediately clicked over our shared taste in music and similar sensibilities. We started hanging out a lot and had some great times together. I’ve also gotten to know many of their friends, who are all really cool. Erin and Jake started dating a couple of months after the three of us became friends, but our group chat still pops off. Their friendship has meant a lot to me, especially since moving to NYC in 2023, and I really appreciate having them in my life.
