(#280, Weightless by Dick Prall)
The Cornflakes Song is my all time favorite song to be featured on the Paste samplers. This album is a joy, but other than an EP that came out in late 2010, Prall hasn't done much since this came out in the fall of 2007. I hope to see something from Dick Prall soon, and if it's half as good as this album, we're all in for a treat.
This is "The Cornflakes Song" ...
(#279, Our Endless Numbered Days by Iron & Wine)
Some purists want everything this man does to sound like The Creek Drank the Cradle and The Sea & The Rhythm. Those are great recordings, but so is this. So the man spent some money to work in a nice studio. No crime there. This is an amazing musician and one of the better songwriters we currently have. If you are not familiar with Sam Beam, I'd say start at the beginning, but make time for this as well.
Take a listen to "Cinder and Smoke" ...
