If you happen to follow me on social media (and why wouldn't you?) you have probably noticed that every week I post a collage of some of the albums I've listened to over the course of the week that I note as from “the Hudson Compound”. Well, tonight's show is an audio version of one of those collages. Every track I played tonight comes from a record that has either been on my turntable, in my earbuds during walks, or blasting in my car as I run errands. These 32 songs represent almost 60 years of great rock and roll, but there are a couple of somewhat new tunes. First off, earlier this week Rhino Records announced an upcoming box set version of my third favorite album of all time, Let It Be. The 3 CD/4 LP box, which comes out on October 24, includes an entire disc of rarities and outtakes and a full show from The Cubby Bear in Chicago. This announcement was accompanied by one of the outtakes – an alternate version of “Androgynous” that kicks off the show. The other new tunes (at least to me) comes right after that track. A few weeks ago our […]

This week's broadcast is sort of two different episodes combined together. The first 45 minutes or so consists of songs left over from the previous two week's new reelease episodes. They're not leftovers in terms of quality, though. They were just the last couple of sets of material that would have caused last week's show to be well over 2 1/2 hours. And sure, having those dozen or so spare tracks allowed me to throw in yet another tune from both The Dogmatics and The Peppermint Kicks albums. The second part of the broadcast, which actualy kicks off with one of last week's leftovers (The Kowalski's “Depression Overdrive”) showcases a number of tunes from reissues, compilations, and live albums. There's the long forgotten original version of Marianne Faithfull's “Sister Morphine”, outtakes from Talking Heads, and live tunes from Husker Du, Guided By Voices and The Fall. There's also two full sets from Cherry Red Records' fabulous new I Wanna Be a Teen Again compilation, including a trio of old tunes from current Big Stir Records artists. Also, please give some thoughts to the ideas on an interview spinoff show and a possible Patreon site that I discuss in the first […]

This month's second part of The Ledge new release is dominated by two of my favorite regular elements – female-led rock and roll and Rum Bar Records. There are two lengthy sets of high octane bands led by female vocals, along with the show-opening debut of Tamar Berk's new single, “Stay Close By”, which was released today! The full album comes out on September 5, and Tamar noted in the email that accompanied her tunes, “‘ocd' is my fifth studio album in five years, and somehow it feels like the most personal and intense one yet. I've always written from a place of deep reflection, but this album digs into the spirals—my anxiety, obsessions, fears, memories, dreams—all of it. It's raw, loud, messy, sometimes funny, sometimes devastating. Just like my mind.” There's also two sets devoted to the plethora of fabulous tunes recently put out on Rum Bar Records, highighted by two of my favorite records of the year by The Dogmatics and The Peppermint Kicks. “Nowheresville” is as strong as anything The Dogmatics have put out in their almost 45 year existence, while The Peppermint Kicks certainly load up the sugar in their pop-rock masterpiece, “Pop Rocks In My […]

The folder was almost full so I decided the time was right for a covers show. The key words are “almost full”, though. As late as this morning I was a few songs short of a full show. But I had faith. First off, I discovered the reissue of a 2012 covers EP by Black Furies called Get Down With It that included a cover of “Teenage Kicks”. Wait, what? It seems like every time I do a covers show I find yet another version of that tune. Then came the release of the explosive new album by The Dogmatics, Nowheresville, destined to be one of my favorite albums of the year. That album's final tune is “Bail Me Out” by Boston legends DMZ. Add a few other new finds and the show was ready! While the vast majority of tracks are either brand new or come from reissues, I do have a lengthy Redd Kross-related set in the middle of the show. Having just finished the great new autobiography Now You're One Of Us: The Incredible Story of Redd Kross, it was just natural to showcase some of the many covers they recorded over the years. Besides two tracks […]

I generally label the first part of the monthly new release series the “friends of the show” broadcast. Looking at tonight's folder of tunes, though, the sequel actually has more artists of that sort than part one had. As always, there's lengthy set recapping a ton of wonderful Rum Bar Records release. Let's face it, thanks to their generosity and the sherr number of great records they put out every month they fit the “best friend” category. But a large portion of the show includes a number of other submitted tracks by the likes of Shortwaves, Joe Normal, mp clarke, The Rockerati, and The chrisVandalay Project. And a thumbs up to the always prolific Friends of Cesar Romero for putting out not one but three new releases this past month! There's also some great tracks from veteran artists this month. The Black Watch just released their 25th album. 25! And this one's a double! The Reds, Pinks and Purples contnue their jangle pop snark with The Past Is a Garden I Never Fed. There's a four album set by Hallelujah The Hills, and the returns of The Untamed Youth and Dropkick Murphys. What is your fave new release? For more […]

It may be our nation's birthday, but that's not stopping The Ledge from their usual routine of every first Friday of the month. Yes, once again we have a two part new release series, and this week's first episode is primarily “friends of the show”. Artists that regularly send us tracks (Numb Surprise), along with labels that alway keep us in the loop (Big Stir Records), along with a ton of artists who so nicely provided us with singles or full-length releases. But we also had to break our usual format with this news from the Numero Group – “The rumors are true. On January 30, 1985, Hüsker Dü recorded a peak high performance to 24 track tape at Minneapolis's First Avenue club in front of their hometown massive. This performance was supposed to come out as a live album later that year, but the band's rapid upward trajectory caused priorities to shift. The tapes were shelved – thought to be possibly lost in the same 2011 house fire that consumed a precious portion of the Hüsker Dü archive. Nearly 40 years later, these tapes have been rescued from the abyss, and we've tasked the team at Steve Albini's Electrical […]
