Podcast appearances and mentions of Robin Pecknold

In this episode, we get to meet Uwade. Uwade a Cailfornia-by-way-of-North Carolina singer-songwriter, who has just released her new debut album, Florilegium. You may have - like I did - first encountered her, though, as the first voice on the opening track of the last Fleet Foxes record Shore, called "Wading in the Waist-High Water". In this chat, she and I discuss the writing and process of creating this first solo LP, what it means for her to be going out on her own, the musical touchstones of her childhood that found their ways into these songs, and more. We do also touch on her work with Robin Pecknold & co. and the subsequent tours she shared with Fleet Foxes, and what she learned from that. Finally, we touch on her academic life, as she is currently working toward a PhD. Thank you for listening.

Matthew Xavier Corrigan, an artist who splits time between Cork and Dublin, released his debut solo album Beast of Changing on March 21. Written in reflection of a tempestuous season of change across Irish coastlines, centred on Ballinskelligs in Co. Kerry, Myrtleville in Co. Cork and Clare Island in Co. Mayo, Beast of Changing follows a story of growth, of love lost and found, of crossing the threshold into dark, cold, saline water - of surrender. Themes of environmentalism and how we shape the coasts, of erosion and rising water, are woven throughout. Matthew Xavier Corrigan's debut album was cut to tape with a single collaborator, Mike Halls, over five days in Liverpool, the product of years of writing rendered in a few day's takes. After pushing to a more intimate and organic sound on the From ten, with love EP, the artist now goes deeper; covered in analog warmth and rich harmonies, delicately performed, taking inspiration from the likes of Andy Shauf, Bill Callahan and Robin Pecknold. This renewed focus on analog warmth even comes out in the imagery; the press photos and album/single artwork were captured on expired film by Ronan Burke on vintage film cameras. Matthew talks about his former project Ghostking is Dead, why that came to an end, the Cork scene and working on festivals such as his own River Runs Round, Quarter Block Party, Quiet Lights and Sounds from a Safe Harbour, the story behind Beast of Changing, and lots more.

LOST ANGEL: THE GENIUS OF JUDEE SILL is an intimate documentary portrait of a one-of-a-kind singer-songwriter from 1970s LA – Judee Sill.  It charts her life from a troubled adolescence of addiction, armed robbery and prison through her meteoric rise in the music world and early tragic death. In two years, Judee went from living in a car to a deal with Asylum Records  and the cover of  Rolling Stone. As told by David Geffen, Linda Ronstadt, JD Souther, Jackson Browne and Graham Nash -- along with Judee herself -- the film explores Judee's unique musical style and the inspiring recent rediscovery of her singular music fostered by Shawn Colvin, Robin Pecknold of Fleet Foxes, Adrianne Lenker and Buck Meek of Big Thief, and  Weyes  Blood.   Co-directors Brian Lindstrom and Andy Brown join us for a conversation how they discovered this nearly forgotten artist, their search for archival material on Judee Sill, finding the “right” way to tell her story, and connecting with wide array of artist, young and older who have been inspired by Judee's enduring work.

The indie folk-rock band Fleet Foxes released their first EP in 2008, and since then have evolved from a fixture of the Pacific Northwest music scene into an internationally-acclaimed ensemble known for their richly-layered sounds and resonant, timeless lyrics. Their latest album, Shore (2020), was nominated for a Grammy. Lead vocalist and principal songwriter Robin Pecknold recently released the book, "Wading in Waist-High Water: The Lyrics of Fleet Foxes." It collects his entire catalogue of lyrics, with notes on his creative inspirations and approaches. He joined The Takeaway to give a window into his songwriting process. "Compiling and notating the lyrics here was maybe the first time I'd read them together. And one thing I kept noticing was the preponderance of question marks," Pecknold writes.  "To me, a song is good if it is asking interesting questions. And a song is done when those questions are no longer confusing the song's maker."

Entre harmonias de vozes inspiradas pela obra de Brian Wilson e versos fortemente influenciados pela obra de Neil Young, o cantor, compositor e multi-instrumentista Robin Pecknold encontrou uma importante fonte de inspiração para o autointitulado registro de estreia do Fleet Foxes. Uma das obras mais aclamadas da cena norte-americana dos anos 2000, o registro lançado pela Sub Pop e produzido por Phil Ek (The Shins, Built to Spill) foi apenas o princípio de uma sequência de outros registros delicadamente apresentados pela banda. Para celebrar o trabalho de Pecknold e a vinda do grupo de Seattle ao Brasil, Cleber Facchi (@cleberfacchi) e Isadora Almeida (@almeidadora) relembram o processo de criação, as canções e histórias envolvendo o registro.

Big Red Machine - "Phoenix (feat. Fleet Foxes & Anaïs Mitchell)" from the 2021 album How Long Do You Think It's Gonna Last? on 37d03d. Last month, The National's Aaron Dessner and Bon Iver's Justin Vernon released their second album under the name Big Red Machine, titled How Long Do You Think It's Gonna Last?. The album features a heavyweight line-up of guests, including Taylor Swift, Sharon Van Etten, This Is The Kit, Ben Howard, Naeem, Lisa Hannigan, My Brightest Diamond's Shara Nova, and on today's Song of the Day, Robin Pecknold of Fleet Foxes and Tony Award-winning singer/songwriter Anaïs Mitchell.  "'Phoenix' was one of the last songs we wrote for this record," Dessner says via a press release. "I was thinking about The Band and the Grateful Dead... maybe imagining this Big Red Machine album was some version of The Last Waltz. Justin first heard it while driving and immediately the chorus melody came into his head. I shared the sketch with Robin Pecknold, who I've been a fan of forever and who I'd been dreaming would join us on this record. Robin wrote the verses and pre chorus as a kind of dialogue with Justin, recalling a conversation they once had backstage in Phoenix. Later Anais wrote words to the chorus and The Westerlies added their magic to the instrumental. JT Bates rumbles around in rare form on the drums on this song. I think it's what I always imagined Big Red Machine would sound like." Pecknold adds, “It was a high, high honor to work on this song, and beyond that it was a really interesting creative challenge. Justin's vocals and the beautiful chorus were already in place before I got my hands on it, so I felt my job melodically and lyrically was to set his entrance up in the best possible way. I felt like a pilgrim putting questions to an elusive sage, not needing clear answers, but happy for the chance to ask.” Read the full post on KEXP.org Support the show: https://www.kexp.org/donate See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On August 27th Big Red Machine, the joint musical project of Justin Vernon and Aaron Dessner - artists known for their work as Bon Iver and in the rock band The National, respectively - returned with new music. You've most definitely heard Dessner's production work elsewhere, like on Taylor Swift's pandemic albums evermore and folklore. The Big Red Machine album, titled How Long Do You Think it's Going to Last, celebrates the fruits of creative partnership and the importance of family and community. At least, that's what we took from our conversation with Dessner. “A lot of my favorite music - usually there's something elusive about it, in that whatever is elusive is coming from this weird cocktail of different people's input. There's just this weird, swampy alchemy, and you can't easily put your finger on why it's so moving.”  Dessner told us he draws much of his creative inspiration from the kinetic energy generated by multiple musical brains working in tandem, which makes sense given the list of features on this album - everyone from Swift to Sharon van Etten to Anaïs Mitchell to The Fleet Foxes' Robin Pecknold. “I'm such a born collaborator. I'm definitely interested in this exchange where you make something and you send it out into the ether and then it comes back slightly changed or radically changed. Then you work on it and send it again. I like this handoff, this communal approach to music making.” The musical collective fostered by Vernon and Dessner on How Long Do You Think It's Going to Last is a testament to the power of musical communities in a year of intense isolation. We're so pleased to bring you Nate's conversation with Aaron Dessner in this week's episode. Songs Discussed Big Red Machine - Birch, feat. Taylor Swift Big Red Machine - Phoenix, feat.

Fleet Foxes recently released their 4th album Shore, a sprawling and at times cinematic work that began as a solo record for the band's singer and principal songwriter Robin Pecknold.  Written and recorded in several locations around the globe, Robin and engineer Beatriz Artola working with outside musicians and band members have created the band's most mature and engaging work to date. Geoff Stanfield caught up with Robin from their respective homes in Seattle and Los Angeles to talk about the process of recording the album and chat about some of their favorite tracks. Enjoy! Sponsored by Audix https://audixusa.com

Robin Pecknold from Fleet Foxes joins us for this episode. Robin tells Bret how a brush with mortality while surfing inspired the mood of the new album "Shore." He fondly recalls the inspiration of producer Richard Swift (Swift was also close friend of Nathaniel Rateliff) and the majesty of Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park.

“I’d write terrible songs constantly, and I just loved it so much,” Fleet Foxes’ Robin Pecknold says of his early years exploring songwriting — a process he began by elaborating on Joni Mitchell and Elliott Smith tunings he’d learned on the internet. “I felt so passionately about it as a teenager that I think every other possibility started to seem unlikely. I just felt like that was what I was going to do.” Episode 56 features a conversation about Pecknold’s creative journey, favorite artists of his including Nirvana, John Prine and Joanna Newsom, how his songwriting has evolved since those teenage years, Fleet Foxes’ beautiful 2020 album Shore, and more. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jennylsq/support

On this week’s Talkhouse Podcast, we bring together a pair of singer-songwriters who share a love of intimate, thoughtful compositions and recordings. Robin Pecknold has been the chief creative mind behind Fleet Foxes since the band’s beginnings back in 2005; the latest Fleet Foxes album was surprise-released in September of 2020, and Shore was met with lots of well-deserved love. Elijah Wolf is just starting out on his career. The Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter was raised in upstate New York, and was a fan of Fleet Foxes before a chance meeting with Pecknold in a New York guitar shop. Wolf, who was working at Crandall Guitars, was playing music by a band called Holy Hive in the store, and it turned out that both Pecknold and Wolf were friends with that band. They got to know each other and started sharing works-in-progress with each other during the pandemic. Pecknold’s songs would end up on Shore, and Wolf’s would become his first album, Better Lighting, which is due out February 26 on Trash Casual Records. Both records, funnily enough, feature drummer Josh Jaeger—it’s a small world after all. The two songwriters get into a great chat about their process, their pandemic work strategies, and the idea of what defines an album. Enjoy the talk, and subscribe now to stay in the loop on future episodes. This week’s episode was produced by Kevin O’Connell, and the Talkhouse Podcast theme is composed and performed by The Range.

Gorgeous harmonies, rich arrangements, sophisticated soul-searching lyrics. Where can you go wrong with 2011's "Helplessness Blues" by Fleet Foxes? Robin Pecknold, man... Sounds like Father John Misty gave him a hard time though. Not only am I joined by Dan Barracuda for this one, but also his musical partner Ian! We have a goofy good time. https://www.niagaramoonmusic.com/ https://www.iandanmusic.com/

Since forming in Seattle in 2006, Fleet Foxes have carved a singular path through the modern music scene, amassing a global following with their celestial harmonies and gorgeous, autumnal indie-folk. They broke out with their 2008 self-titled debut album, a runaway success that frontman Robin Pecknold says he found “hugely shocking”. After their follow-up record Helplessness Blues, he retreated from the spotlight for a number of years before the band returned with 2017’s Crack-Up and now their fourth record, 2020's Shore. We talk about all that in this interview, as well as Robin’s upbringing in Seattle and his path through the Seattle music scene, how he struggled to cope with the sudden success of Fleet Foxes’ debut, and why he can never, ever forgive Richard Gere’s character in An Officer and A Gentleman.

[REBROADCAST FROM OCTOBER 1, 2020] Robin Pecknold, singer-songwriter, guitarist and frontman of Fleet Foxes, joins us to talk about their album, Shore, which was released on September 22. The album serves as a bright counterpart to the band's last critically acclaimed album, Crack-Up.

Nick kicks things off this week with an album recommendation. “Shore” by Fleet Foxes was released in time for Fall last month, but is a surprisingly brighter sounding record. We discuss frontman Robin Pecknold’s new found optimism and whether Jay is allowed to like something so central to Pitchfork’s aesthetic.Song: Fleet Foxes - “Jara”Next up, we have a special guest this week! Kaz PS co-wrote, directed and shot “The Halcyon”, which was released on the sci-fi shorts channel Dust. The film, co-written and co-scored by our very own Greg Loman, was picked up by Dust to be included as part of a collection of post-apocalyptic short films. When that fell through, Dust was cool enough to put out “The Halcyon” as a featured release on their YouTube channel, but didn’t include any context or explanation about the genre discrepancy. So a decent number of Dust’s most loyal sci-fi loving fans chose to express their confusion and outrage via the comments. So, Nick & Jay decided to read some of them on the show to give Kaz & Greg a chance to respond. Kaz was a fantastic guest and we look forward to having her back in the future!Song: Peter Schilling - “Major Tom”Jay bookends the episode with an album pick of his own, the wonderful re-release of Tom Petty’s 1994 solo album “Wildflowers”. Originally a 24 track album, the re-release contains all the songs that didn’t make it into the original release, as well as demo & alternate versions of the tracks. It’s a 4 hour master class on song composition and structure, studio tracking & editing. You should check it out ;-)Song: Tom Petty - “Climb That Hill”

Fleet Foxes mastermind Robin Pecknold speaks with Kyle Meredith about his surprise new record, Shore. Pecknold maps out the LP, revisits the long quarantine drives that aided his songwriting, and reflects on the protests in NYC. The singer-songwriter also talks controlling a person’s perception of time through his music, seeing the past without rose-colored glasses, how his grandfather’s stroke and recovery leant a focus to memory and mortality, and his plan for a 24-hour song album.

Welcome to AvA Lite, a snack-sized version of our regular episodes. Lucas and Cail debate which folk festival lover had the better "quarantune" release — T. Swift or Robin Pecknold?

This episode the boys are digging into their watch discomfort zones – those types of watches that simply haven't worked for them in the past. For Jason, it's dress watches. For James, it's chronographs. From special examples to wild blind spots, the guys know they are in the wrong and chat about how best to frame these genres in a way that might work in the future. From the top, Jason and James are talking Speedmaster bracelets, bronze watches, and the never-ending sagas of vintage Land Rover repairs and project property updates.

In this episode, we get to meet Robin Pecknold, frontman of folk-rock band Fleet Foxes. In this chat, we discuss the many facets of the band's new, surprise-released album, SHORE. We talk about Robin's distinct approach to songwriting, as well as how the 2020 pandemic shaped the album. We even stop for a moment to revel in our shared love of songwriter extraordinaire, Joanna Newsom. I hope you enjoy, and thank you for listening.

En #Fitz21 intentamos confeccionar nuestro grupo burbuja, pero nos falta gente para llegar a los seis contactos. Os hablamos de “Yo estoy vivo y vosotros estáis muertos” la biografía de Philip K. Dick escrita por Emmanuel Carrère y terminamos charlando sobre un futuro que no parece nada halagüeño, aunque tampoco hay que dramatizar ni preocuparse en exceso porque no sirve de nada. Comenzamos la selección musical con “The way we live today” de Fimber Bravo, un músico capaz de extraer sonidos increíbles a un peculiar instrumento; el tambor de acero de pan, y que en esta canción sirve de acompañamiento a la voz de Alexis Taylor de Hot Chip. El único disco de Bravo hasta la fecha es “Con-Fusion” de 2013 para la discográfica Moshi Moshi Records . Suena Shilpa Ray, una rockera neoyorquina. Descrita como una voz del “blues punk”, ha sido comparada con Debbie Harry de Blondie, Patti Smith, Ella Fitzgerald y hasta Nick Cave, con este último ha colaborado y compartido escenario. Su último tema lleva el curioso titulo de “Heteronormative Horseshit Blues” que cuestiona la cultura heterosexual y sugiere una urgentemente discusión con el fin del refórmala o finalmente abolirla. La canción viene acompañada de un videoclip dirigido por Amos Poe vieja gloria del “No Wave Cinema”. Ólafur Arnalds, es un músico islandés, uno de los puntales de una nueva generación de músicos ambient y electrónica tranquila. Compartimos “Wove song”, según el autor una metáfora de ser abrazado por algo más grande que tú mientras exploras nuevos territorios, la sensación de ser abrazado mientras abres tu corazón, esta canción es un adelanto de su nuevo disco “Some kind of peace”, que será publicado el próximo 6 de noviembre. EL 22 de septiembre salió por sorpresa el cuarto disco de Fleet Foxes con el titulo de “Shore”, un disco largo con 15 cortes que será sin duda uno de los discos del año. Todos los temas fueron compuestos por su líder Robin Pecknold, muchos ellos durante el confinamiento de Nueva York, unas canciones que buscan celebrar la vida en la cara de la muerte, en palabras del propio Robin, compartimos “Can I Believe you”, uno de grandes temas del disco. Adrianne Lenker es una artista muy precoz, con sólo trece años ya sacó disco, alma de la banda Big Thief, ha estrenado “Dragon eyes” una nueva canción extraída del doble álbum en solitario que publicará el 23 de octubre. El nuevo trabajo llevará el nombre de “Songs e instrumentals,” este nuevo material fue grabado el pasado mes de abril tras tener que cancelar la gira junto a Big Thief. Maria Rodés publica el 16 de octubre ‘Lilith’ un disco en el cual reivindica el papel de la bruja desde una perspectiva actual y feminista. Escuchamos “Oscuro Canto” tema de presentación. Nos dejamos transportar por la dulce y hermosa voz de María. Comentamos la trayectoria de la cantante barcelonesa, la increíble historia de su tío bisabuelo e ilustre astrónomo y su relación David Byrne. 43:35 > Esta semana hablamos de “Sueño Florianópolis” de Ana Katz, directora y actriz de cine y teatro argentina. Hacemos un recorrido por su trayectoria. Una cineasta que a la que Gijon International Film Festival (Official Site) en su #58FICX dedicará una retrospectiva. Una familia argentina viaja a Brasil. Dentro del coche, Lucrecia y Pedro (psicólogos) y sus dos hijos adolescentes. La pareja está viendo cómo se apaga la llama de su matrimonio. Pero las vacaciones son siempre una tregua de la vida cotidiana, un paréntesis en el que cualquier cosa puede suceder y hay permisos para la experimentación y usar máscaras distintas de las que se llevan durante el resto del año. Y qué mejor lugar para eso que Brasil, tierra prometida de libertad y espontaneidad tropical. En las playas, entre olas, y paseos acuáticos, nacen los romances cruzados y una atracción que salpica también a los hijos de unos y de otros. Los hijos aprovechan para vivir sus experiencias y todo se enreda un poco más. Una comedia y que deja cierto regusto de tristeza.

Robin Pecknold, singer-songwriter, guitarist and frontman of Fleet Foxes, joins us to talk about their new album, Shore, which was released on September 22nd. The album serves as a bright counterpart to the band's last critically acclaimed album, Crack-Up.

Exposición en Brighton el mes que viene de sesenta fotos de la época de los cuatro años de concierto de las Spiders from Mars de David Bowie.Y todo porque le dio al click en su momento un amigo de la infancia/juventud de Bowie, Geoff MacCormack, al que incluso invitó a unirse a su banda soporte y por eso está en los crèditos de algunos conciertos de aquellos años de gira haciendo voces y tocando la percusión. Unas flores blancas moviéndose por la brisa y un cartel anunciador en las calles de París con la palabra "Shore" y la fecha del 22 de septiembre. Ya está aquí la música que sucede a aquel "Crack-ip" de 2017. Nuevo disco de Fleet Foxes, en el que la banda de Robin Pecknold tiene en los créditos a Daniel de Grizzly Bear. En febrero lo saca Anti, 55 minutos y quince canciones, entre ellas el tema que hoy hemos escuchado al lado de una de pieza del estreno de 2008. Noticia del día es que Stephen Kijak es el director de una película que se llama como un single de The smiths del año 87 y que cuenta la historia ficticia de cuatro fans de la banda de Manchester se enteran de la separación escuchando la radio. También lo es que aparecen imágenes inéditas de los Replacements de 1987 que sirven de soporte para un clip; eran los tiempos de aquel disco en directo en el Bowery Oklahoma. Además, AImee Man lee a Leonard Cohen para la banda sonora de la docuserie de HBO "!I´ll be gone in the dark" escrita por la fallecida Michelle Macnamara. Y hablando de versiones The New raemon lee un tema del "Wish" de The Cure. Dos recuerdos. A Dave Kusworth, 60 años, uno de los dos jefes de Jacobites y a Lee Kerslake, batería de Uriah Heep y que también tocó con ozzy osbourne. Novedad es el avance de la nueva entrega del proyecto de rock más electrónica de Maynard James Keenan, Puscifer. El retrovisor nos ha llevado hasta Julio de la Rosa que vino a presentar su cuarto disco "La herida universal" y nos dejó una g.a.t.o. para la posteridad. Y el punto final ha sido para un tema que al final acabó en su propio autor y ni para Vanity 6 ni Bonnie Raitt. Es uno de los inéditos de la reedición del "Sign of the times de Prince".

​In this week's Sidetrack we take a look at an album that Fleet Foxes' Robin Pecknold drew inspiration from and had on heavy rotation while writing songs for ​"Helplessness Blues". Roy Harper's four song masterpiece, "Stormcock", is this short and sweet, intensely beautiful & clever album (to borrow sentiments from Johnny Marr), along with other works by Harper, had a major influence on many of rock's most legendary members, including Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, Pete Townshend, and Pink Floyd, among others.

​We gush and fawn over Robin Pecknold's lyrics and song composition as we dive into Fleet Foxes' second album Helplessness Blues​. We also take a look at what makes Fleet Foxes stand out in the landscape of indie-folk from that era.

The Fleet Foxes songwriter tells us about the downside of finding success at a young age, and taking a five year hiatus as a result.

Fleet Foxes have just released their third full length record, "Crack Up," after a six year break. Listen to lead singer and songwriter Robin Pecknold as he explores the effect Glen Campbell's recording of Brian Wilson penned "Guess I'm Dumb" had on his songwriting.

Okay, so we took a long hiatus with Cosmic America, mostly because Alex moved four time zones away. We're going to have some new episodes soon, I promise! In the meantime, here's one of the last episodes taped before Alex moved away — this one focuses on Fleet Foxes' eponymous debut LP. Like Crosby, Stills & Nash in an echo chamber with a bunch of funky electric folk guitarists, this song sort of defied immediate classification, and ended up creating a furor in the indie rock scene. Their output since this album hasn't been nearly as melodic, so it's important to go back and pay respects to an album that now seems as frozen in time as it sounded when it was first unleashed on the landscape almost a decade ago.

Fleet Foxes formed in Seattle, Washington in 2006. In 2011, they put out their second record, which was nominated for a Grammy, and then, the band went on hiatus. The lead singer and songwriter, Robin Pecknold, moved to New York to go to Columbia University. After six years, in 2017, the band returned with their third album, Crack-Up. And in this episode, Robin breaks down a song from that record called “Mearcstapa.” songexploder.net/fleet-foxes

Fleet Foxes' songwriter and frontman Robin Pecknold talks to John Wilson about their new album Crack-Up, and his return to music following several years at college. Marianne Elliott - director of some of the National Theatre's most successful shows, including The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, War Horse and Angels in America - has left to form her own company, which launches in the Autumn with a new play by Simon Stephens called Heisenberg: The Uncertainty Principle. As the first major retrospective of Turkish artist Fahrelnissa Zeid opens at Tate Modern, Kerryn Greenberg reveals the extraordinary life of one of the 20th century's most overlooked artists.Presenter: John Wilson Producer: Timothy Prosser.

Robin Pecknold tells me about his open mic days, early Fleet Foxes stories, his decision to go to college two albums into his career, and his family's unlikely Shaggy connection. Fleet Foxes' new album Crack-Up is out June 16, 2017 on Nonesuch Records. Big thanks to the Ace Hotel in New York for hosting us. Email: noeffectsshow@gmail.com Web: www.noeffectsshow.com

This could end up being the most obscure album we review on Cosmic America, but that doesn't make it less deserving of your listenership. Through Toledo was a little-known album released by little-known indie artist Greg Laswell in the mid-2000s, which stands as one of the more well-constructed breakup albums that we've heard in a while. You may know a few of the songs, which filtered their way into the pop culture whirlpool during the late 2000s. Listen on YouTube here.

Let's stay in the seventies on this episode of Cosmic America, as we delve into a masterful pop record from Scottish artist and industry misanthrope Gerry Rafferty. This album spawned a huge hit in Baker Street, but the rest of the album ends up holding up pretty well 40 years later. Somehow underappreciated despite being incredibly solid and tuneful throughout. You can check out the whole thing (which really is worth listening to if you haven't already heard it) on YouTube, or buy it on Amazon.

Is it cooler to like Elton John or Billy Joel? Cosmic America investigates…sort of. By "investigates", I mean we talk about the topic for 10 minutes.

It's live album week at Cosmic America, so we delve into an artifact from the early stages of Elton John's career. Recorded in a New York City studio, broadcast on radio, and then widely bootlegged, 11-17-70 (or 17-11-70 if you're British or annoying) is an interesting look into an Elton John that was still focused on 50's era rock and roll as his primary artistic motif. Not a lot of songs, but certainly a lot of energy. You can check out the album on iTunes, or you can listen to the unedited radio broadcast here.

This edition of Cosmic America sees us jumping forward into the mid-90s, focusing on the album Grace by Jeff Buckley. A critical darling when it came out, the album was the only full artistic statement from Buckley before his untimely drowning shortly afterwards. Does it hold up 20 years later? Does the "Hallelujah" cover force the album into transcendence? Lots of questions about this one. Take a listen. And check out "Lover, You Should've Come Over" and "Lilac Wine" while you're at it.

For this episode of Cosmic America, we check out the touring outfit of Joe Cocker (and Leon Russell), which traveled across the United States in 1970 under the group name Mad Dogs and Englishmen. This live album stands as a document to that series of shows, and while it's certainly an interesting listen in a number of places, it falls short of the sort of all-time status that the aura of the band might seem to demand. Standout tracks include Space Captain, Delta Lady, and the cover of Leonard Cohen's Bird on a Wire.

Happy 2017! We ring in the new year at Cosmic America with a review of the The Band's Northern Lights, Southern Cross, a somewhat forgotten gem from 1975. Viewed by many as the last "proper" studio release by The Band, this album doesn't have quite the same lyrical spark as the group's late 60's efforts but still manages to paint an enjoyable and rootsy tapestry. Standout songs include It Makes No Difference and Acadian Driftwood, both linked in the blog post.

New Cosmic America! We check in on rock critic touchstone The Stone Roses, one of the more fully realized one-hit wonder albums of the modern era of music. Lost in the shuffle of late-80's hair metal and power balladry, this album ended up acting as the missing link between 70's soundscape rock and the alternative ethos of the 90's. Songs you should definitely listen to include Waterfall, I Wanna Be Adored, and I Am The Resurrection, all of which we have helpfully linked for you in the show text.Subscribe to us on iTunes! Just search "Cosmic America" and you'll find us.

Anthony Delaney (@thearisestudy) is a double medalled Emergency Physician and Intensivist who’s achievements include several high impact publications in major journals as well as keeping his chooks alive and away from his two little kids. He’s an intimidating college examiner that has confused many by looking like a bit like Robin Pecknold of Fleet foxes fame.  He is also THE Big Man (along with Sandy Peake and Rinaldo Bellomo and several other incredible reseachers) behind the ARISE trial, which is a multi-centre, randomised controlled trial of early goal-directed therapy in patients presenting to the Emergency Department with severe sepsis in Australasia. It involves 47 sites (including Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Finland and possibly Ireland) and has enrolled 1095 pts. The trial commenced enrolment in October 2008. and is well on its way to completion. The sound snippets are from Caspar Babypants which can be bought here.

The favor that the late great Clarence Clemons did for host Pat Healy. Plus, if "Pumped Up Kicks" is the song of summer, what is the song of summer for Mark Foster of Foster the People? Janelle Monae asks Robin Pecknold of the Fleet Foxes a question, and he in turn asks one of Cass McCombs. Chris Cornell clarifies his 2005 statements about Soundgarden never getting back together and we treat you to a song by Locksley.

Robin Pecknold of Fleet Foxes. Source: WikipediaThis show features the Three Songs EP from hirsute Baroque-folker Robin Pecknold, better known as the frontman of Seattle's Fleet Foxes. The EP was somewhat clandestinely released via Fleet Foxes' Twitter account on March 7. The tracks should help sate the appetite of fans anxiously awaiting the sophomore record from the band, which is slated for release on May 3. Though Pecknold (and his amazing set of pipes) are behind these tracks, they're quieter and less layered than full band tracks. I'm particularly fond of the first cut featuring Ed Droste of Grizzly Bear. Download the EP below and enjoy with your favorite amber-colored libation.Robin Pecknold - I'm Losing Myself feat.
