So you can keep your Joss Stones and your Amy Winehouses. I am in love with Grace Potter and her band the Nocturnals. I have been digging the album “Nothing But The Water” but I finally got to watch the DVD that came with the CD I purchased (in Vermont!) which has five cuts from a show they did in Burlington. What a good time that must have been! She really works the songs and the band (I especially dug when - at the end of “Joey” she breaks into Lucinda Williams’ “Joy”). Kerry hears a lot of Bonnie Raitt in her. I’ve checked her website (www.gracepotter.com) and the closest she will be to Jersey is the Central Park Summerstage in September.

You can bet - I will be there.

    Glad to hear she’s gotten you. Some of the writing is a little youthy precious, but I listen to Ragged Company every chance I get.

    We just got an advance of her new album…haven’t listened to it yet, except for the cuts already available. Interested?

    A very good record indeed. purchased it this morning on my break. And a very good blog. I finally remembered to get the site from Aunt Terry. I’ll add it to my list of things to do everyday instead of work.
