Just Joshing

Ritter
Rouse

Originally I had planned to feature three Joshes - the other being Josh T Pearson  but a) I didn't fancy any songs from my burn of Last of the Country Gentlemen and b) he featured yesterday as part of Lift to Experience.

Both Mr Ritter and Rouse have graced these pages before and I daresay they will again.
The Josh Ritter song Harrisburg is taken from his 2002 album The Golden Age of Radio on the Setanta label. I'm not sure whether that is the same Setanta who used to televise Scottish football.

The Josh Rouse song London Bridges  comes from my burn of Country Mouse City House which is from 2007 on Bedroom Classics.I got a copy of the CD cover in a charity shop in Broadford on Skye but sadly the CD was missing!

Any other Joshes I should be aware of?

Josh Ritter - Harrisburg

Josh Rouse - London Bridges

  1. The great Josh White, of course.

    I saw Josh T perform 'Last of the Country Gentleman' when it came out. Live it was quite compelling, but on record personally I found it rather dreary

  2. Harrisburg. Harrisburg!!! So I can't use that track as well. Are you deliberately making things more difficult??????

    1. Not intentionally
      We could compare notes beforehand but where's the fun in that!

  3. Josh Tillman a.k.a. Father John Misty springs to mind, as does Josh Caterer of The Smoking Popes.

    1. Good call - but Father John Misty tends to annoy me. Too full of himself

    Josh Turner, a country singer

  5. I have a track somewhere by a combo called the Josh Joplin Group, no idea though here and now (in the office) whether it's any good or not ...

  6. Big fan of the mini-album Josh Rouse did with Kurt Wagner. Chester. Well worth searching out.
