Sonic Youth lieutenant shredder Ranaldo opens with songs from a new solo recording. Nasally vocals wrapped around trademark skronk make for an enjoyable listen. Dark and goofy with a good cover of T Heads "Thank You for Sending Me An Angel". I liked the fretwork on "Christina"s World". M. Ward shows up with a top-notch band and rolls through some of his back catalog. Ward is a true musical chameleon. Equal parts western swing, She and Him hipster, and superb picker topped with his distinctive aw shucks vocal delivery. Great version of "Helicopter" off the Transfiguration of Vincent recording.
