Innlandet Hestejazz Society Moonshine Blends Vol. 4.
Jim, Jess & Jessie
2020 is a lot of things, but it’s also a great year for music (like most years..). One of my faves this year is the stunning new album by Jess Williamson, «Sorceress».
I had to include «Infinite Scroll», with its 80s Fleetwood Mac-ish awesomeness. The song sticks out like a sore thumb on this playlist, but in a good way, if you know what I mean.
The two Jims also appear here. Mr. UFO himself, Jim Sullivan, and Mr. Funky, Jim Ford. Two gents I have the utmost respect for. Last, but not least, Jesse Ed Davies comes and steals the show.
I also included a serious nugget by Swedish rare groove monster Doris, with her take on The Band’s «Whispering Pine». With the legendary Janne Carlsson on drums.
Here’s to having a good time all the time.
|| Mickey Newbury - Mobile Blue | Billy Swan - Don't Be Cruel | Jim Sullivan - Biblical Boogie (True He's Gone) | Jess Williamson - Infinite Scroll | Doris - Whispering Pine | Cher - Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You | Buddy Miles - Down By The River | Willie Nelson - Shotgun Willie | Donnie Fritts - Sumpin' Funky Going On | Jim Ford - I'm Gonna Make Her Love Me | Jesse Ed Davis - Every Night Is Saturday Night ||
Keep it funky,
David.

Innlandet Hestejazz Society is a moniker that my good friend David Jønsson and me use when we are dj'ing around Oslo. Though to call it dj'ing might be an overstatement, we play records and have a good time. As crate diggers and heads we were drawn to the country-rock and the flying freak flags when we met behind the counter of a record store many years ago. Moonshine Blends are mixes of tunes we would have played in bars, but since we are confined to our own living rooms we are putting them up on the net for everyones pleasure. So tune in for some vibey west coast, hillbilly hobnobs, no-depression and blue collar country. Jerry Garcia, Johnny Paycheck and Jeff Tweedy hand in hand. Keep on truckin'!
