Not new but new to me

In the past five years or so, a few noteworthy bands have slipped by me and escaped into the arms of other people's adoration. What can I say, I can't always stay in the loop! Before Eric left, I had the opportunity to pillage his cd collection and acquaint myself with some of the music he and so many others always talk about. Two things of the many that stand out like rays of divine light are Matt Pond PA and The Delgados. I highly suggest taking them for a spin on Amazon. These are huge.
