These are silly and kinda weird, but I really like them. Although I have a decent 70s bootleg of “The Christmas Album,” this is a welcome re-issue. All the original Pic Sleeves, and this time pressed on actual vinyl (colored) with a nice book and box. Ordered! Bull Moose Elusive Disc... And your other usual suspects.

Blue Note Records will release the debut solo album from Benmont Tench, You Should Be So Lucky, on February 18, 2014. Produced by legendary producer Glyn Johns, the album was recorded to tape at Sunset Sound in Los Angeles and features Tench handling lead vocals, piano and organs, joined by a team of collaborators including a core band of Don Was, Ethan Johns, Blake Mills and Jeremy Stacey and contributions by Ryan Adams, Gillian Welch & David Rawlings, Joel Jerome, Tom Petty and Ringo Starr. RollingStone.com has premiered the lead track “Blonde Girl, Blue Dress” today, click here to listen. You Should Be So Lucky is available for pre-order at Amazon.com in both CD and 2-LP 180-gram vinyl formats. The vinyl edition was mastered from the original analog tapes and includes two extra tracks not available on the CD and digital versions of the album. You Should Be So Lucky is a dynamic and distinguished album of songs written almost entirely by Tench over the course of his thirty-seven year career not only as keyboardist and founding member of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, but as a first call musician for artists from Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan to The Rolling Stones and Elvis Costello; from the Jayhawks and Ryan Adams to Fiona Apple and John Prine. The only non-originals are covers of the traditional “Corrina, Corrina” and the Bob Dylan track “Duquesne Whistle” from 2012’s Tempest. Via
