Summer Breeze - The Black Man's Treatment

My friend Peter Himmelman did this really funny bit on his internet show Furious World last night called "The Black Man's Treatment" where he compared a song by a duo he deemed the "whitest duo ever" to a cover of their song by a Black artist. The duo: Seals & Crofts. The song: "Summer Breeze." The cover: by the Isley Brothers. Have to say the way he framed it up was pretty funny; however if you miss the humour, Peter's point was that the Isley's completely claim this song as their own with Ernie just playing some incredible guitar playing. Check it out.

More Greatness from the Sunset album

Just last week I wrote this about the fantastic new album from Austin's Sunset. Gold Dissolves To Gray is quickly shaping up to be one of my favorite albums of the year with its sun soaked luscious super crafty psych-pop songs. Here's another delicious song from the record.
