Under-G Playlist (Best Albums)

JIM FORD
Harlan County
“It’s just got that thing.
A few heads play on that,
don’t they? Like Dr John…”


BILL FAY
time of the last
PerseCution/from
tHe Bottom of an
old GrandfatHer CloCk
“‘Camille’, I’ve been playing that a lot…
and ‘Plan D’. It’s miserable; you’re not
going to pull listening to that one.”

MICHAEL
CHAPMAN
fully Qualified
survivor
“This was a big one for me while
I was writing this last album. I wanted
to have some of that quality in this
record. I’m not really listening to
that any more, but Wrecked Again
has a song called ‘You Say’ on it or
something [actually on Rainmaker]…
You’ve talked to him… Is he cool?”

IGGY AND
THE STOOGES
raw Power
“Before the Brits we had
Raw Power on really loud to get us
there. It’s like, ‘Come on, Iggy, we need
you now…’”

ISAAC HAYES
Hot Buttered soul
“‘Walk On By’. It’s on that
Wu-Tang sample, ‘I Can’t
Go To Sleep’. It’s a heavy groove for
20 minutes.”

BLACK ANGELS
“It was on the True
Detective series. Have
you seen that? All the
music’s incredible. T Bone Burnett
did it, I think.”

ALAN HULL
sQuire
“I quite like that folky thing
when there’s a groove as
well. The bass sounds like Melody
Nelson or something, those
Gainsbourg records.”

WARPAINT
“It’s the new one. Good
to have something new
on there…”
