Song(s) of the Day # 3,496 Paper Kites

 

      'Keep your eyes on the road. Your hands upon the wheel.' Roadhouse Blues, The Doors

It's September. The nights are drawing in. It's Friday, Let's take it easy tonight. Melbourne's Paper Kites are a five-piece and they've just got a new album out. There's a picture of them below. Called At The Roadhouse, It tells you all you need to know about them.

There they are in their ungiving, blank expressions. Their suede, plaid jackets, moustaches and cowboy hats and boots. They're laid back as they come and play it cool, The way Van the Man, J.J.Cale and ftankly The Eagles used to play their hand back in the day.



This is not exciting, If you're after that seek elsewhere. It will not be going on any lists of records that I am in the process of compiling. It's not anywhere as good as Morrison Hotel. But it will do for Friday night.
