Quickies: Albuquerque/Amirom/Barata, Brian Blade Fellowship, Paolo Nutini

Here we are nearly a week into June and I'm still stuck on some May releases. Time to clear the docket a little bit so we can push ahead with some newer stuff. Enter the ever-handy vehicle for expressing briefer thoughts, Quickies.
True to the tagline at the end, I also inserted a "new to me" selection; one that's been out there stateside for almost a year and a half now, but a good friend sent to me just recently. It's a CD by a young guy from Scotland whose last name I still can't pronounce, but I've had a hard time keeping his music out of my rotation for the last month or so.
WE'VE MOVED!: Dablog by DaSlob is now ... SOMETHING ELSE. Find the remainder of this review through the new link.

Love,love,love Paolo. I saw him live at the Isle of Wight Pop Festival, with The Rolling Stones and at Glastonbury Abbey. He is a phenomenal performer and songwriter. He is actually from Scotland and not the North. His accent is Scots and is a lot stronger when he performs live, but for some odd reason it was toned down for his American CD release. I just cannot wait for his next release and have him on a parr with Coldplay. He recently performed at the huge Led Zeppelin revival concert and deserves every accolade he gets. Although born and raised in Paisley, Scotland, his family is Italian origin. Thanks for DABLOG !!
Thanks for your thoughts and filling in some more info on Paolo. Hopefully, he'll catch on here in the US like he has in the UK.
