Song of the Day - October 17, 2006

Wow, where did this guy come from? Actually, Dan Sartain hails from Birmingham, Alabama, but he is making a name for himself in England. His music is strongly rooted in rockabilly, Johnny Cash, and a touch of The Clash. I love his most recent release Join Dan Sartain. The album is overflowing with great songs such as the jumping "Gun vs. Knife," the Latin influenced "Flight of the Finch," and the Clash-like "Indian Ink." The song "Replacement Man" was recently named record of the week by Colin Murray of BBC 1 and is my choice for song of the day. Click here to listen.
