Good white-boy soul and funk on Warp Records (weird...) Just saw the video for "Another Day" on ME and fell in love. Lidell's name is one of heard and read on blogs and in magazines but had yet to take the time to listen to. Great song, great video, assuming the rest of the album is just as great. For fans of Sharon Jones and Gnarls Barkley.

Thanks to Tito for once again hipping me to a great new artist I haven't heard. Deep funk and blues something like Sam Cooke meets Amy Winehouse - not surprisingly Reed is playing this years Austin City Limits Festival. Reed's new album "Roll With You" is fucking stellar.
