Mark Lanegan. Enough Said.

Mark Lanegan doesn’t get enough attention, as far as I’m concerned. So, for your Friday enjoyment, here’s a selection of some of my favorite Lanegan-led songs. Warning: knee-melting may occur.

 

Mark Lanegan – “Methamphetamine Blues”

 

Isobell Campbell and Mark Lanegan – “Back Burner”

 

Soulsavers, featuring Mark Lanegan – “Revival”

 

The Twilight Singers with Mark Lanegan – “Live with Me/Where Did You Sleep Last Night?”

 

Mark Lanegan Band – “I’ll Take Care of You”

 

Mark Lanegan – “Man in the Long Black Coat”

 

Isobell Campbell and Mark Lanegan – “Come on Over (Turn Me On)”

 

Mark Lanegan Band – “Wedding Dress”

Bits: Infantree, Filter, Camu Tao, Robert Wilson, Mark Lanegan, Isobel Campbell

  • If you’ll be in the Los Angeles, California, area on September 14th, get your R.S.V.P. to Infantree and be on the guest list for their album release party.
  • Due to the Cleveland connection, I feel compelled to note that Filter’s new album is streaming at AOL Music. (I’ll just say that it’s no Short Bus.)
  • But on another Ohio-centric tip, the posthumous solo album from Columbus’ Camu Tao (on fabulous Fat Possum Records) is also streaming at AOL Music. (I’m digging it.)
  • Robert Wilson, bassist and one of the three brothers who made up the Gap Band, died this past Sunday at the age of 53.
  • Saying Mark Lanegan and Isobel Campbell are working together again is becoming a bit like saying Robert Pollard is putting out a new album. They’ve got a good thing going, though, so check out their new video for “You Won’t Let Me Down Again”. The album, Hawk, is streaming on Campbell’s Facebook page.
