Jim O'Rourke

I really enjoy Drag City Records. They've got some awesome artists like Bill Callahan, Bonnie "Prince" Billy and Jim O'Rourke. These guys have a nice sort of grungy and kinda simple sound to them that I really enjoy. Bill Callahan especially, gives me the same feeling as a good western movie or a Cormac McCarthy book.

"Therefore I Am"


This one's nice.
"Insignificance"


A little bosa nova (maybe)
"Something Big"


The album art is just classic.
"Ghost Ship in a Storm"


Some more bosa nova. Good times.
"Please Patronize Are Sponsors"


There's a sort of Christmas-y feel to some of these. Coooulllddd be the season, but hey, there it is.

Not so in this one, but shit, it's great.
"Prelude to 110 or 220 / Women of the World"


"Memory Lame"


"Get a Room" (i think)


And a little something from his latest album: "The Visitor"
