Mayer’s Playlist for Aug/Sept 2008, Part 1 Video Companion

Summer ended with a bang thanks to some fine new music. We kick off our August/September video bonanza with some, well, sweet live performances by Matthew Sweet, one of our featured artists. Dig a bit deeper and you’ll get live concert footage from Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons, British Sea Power, Chris Knight and Ezra Furman plus a theatrical video for Albert Hammond Jr.’s “GfC.” We’ve also got two haunting performances that shouldn’t be missed: Todd Snider’s take on John Fogerty’s “Fortunate Son” and Phantom Limb’s “Don’t Say a Word.”

Random Quote

"Here is the easiest wat to explain the genius of Johnny Cash: Singing from the perspective of a convicted murderer in the song 'Folsom Prison Blues,' Cash is struck by pangs of regret when he sits in his cell and hears a distant train whistle. This is because people on that train are, 'Probably drinkin' coffee.' And this is also why Cash seems completely credible as a felon: He doesn't want freedom or friendship or Jesus or a new lawyer. He wants coffee." -- Chuck Klosterman from "Sex, Drugs & Cocoa Puffs"
