Jonathan Wilson (Momofuku) with a nice story about EC - video
Jonathan Wilson played a solo acoustic show last night in NYC. He intros this song with a good story about how Elvis encouraged his early work:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJk6d5Mwjf4
His new album, Rare Birds, is really good.

His analysis is really insightful. I like the description of Lipstick Vogue:
...before a spooky breakdown gives way to a twelve-bar Thomas solo that sounds like a punk drummer interpreting “Sing, Sing, Sing.”

Nice instrumental segment from a modern gospel song called "Victory" by Yolanda Adams:

I like the latest arrangement of Alison. The previous version with just EC, Briana and Kitten was a bit too screechy for me.
