Peter Case - Let Us Now Praise Sleepy John - 06-08-2008, 02:58 AM

The 1st cd I d/l once I was able to fill my balance on Sparks. I've been looking for the cd on the other sites with no luck, but it was well worth the wait. On his latest cd, Case plays old school acoustic folk in the vein of Woody Guthrie and early Dylan (with a similar political bent to his songs). It's raw and stripped down music with just Case's voice and guitar (with occasional help from one of my favorites, Richard Thompson).

Highly recommended to anyone into folk and/or acoustic music.

an example of Case's music style:

YouTube - PETER CASE AT GRAVITY LOUNGE

YouTube - PETER CASE sings 'Brokedown Engine Blues'
