Seasick Steve! Keith Richards gets by with only five strings. But SS gets it done with just three!
My impression is that GvF is quoted as being very anti-drug, but I agree that Josh Kiszka has a strange affect. It may be partly calculated though and he does seem supremely in control of this voice, though, and that is an amazing voice. And being anti-drug early does not mean they won't be junkies in short order. I suppose a question is can any group or even any musician keep it up. Joni Mitchell once said she was no longer the same person who put out her earlier material. I like that earlier person better!
I think Bowie ruined Iggy, too.
Way different than anything else listed here, but re other kinds of music, I have been liking Maggie Rogers. Better if one can listen to her cold and avoid the hype. I was liking Ray LaMontagne, too. But he seems have about three good songs.
I was late to the Jayhawks, too, and the album before last, Paging Mr. Proust, was excellent. Not so much the latest album.
