A little bit of news in my inbox this morning. The Black Keys are releasing a new album titled Magic Potion in September. Furthermore this will be with their new label Nonesuch Records whom they've recently signed with after dropping the famous blues label Fat Possum Records who feature artists such as the late RL Burnside, T Model Ford, Deadboy and the Elephantmen and The Fiery Furnaces. Back that up with a spot on Radiohead's new tour = a busy few months. Unfortunatley we down here in Australia are overlooked again and will miss out on that one (maybe you will see them Marc - I don't want to know either... asshole). Anyway I'm sure the Keys will make it here soon... they have an incredible love of Byron Bay.
Here's a track from their last release from Possum. Off their excellent EP, Chulahoma which features covers by the late Junior Kimbrough (also Possum).

The Black Keys - Have Mercy On Me

Also here are some other top tracks from the Possum label.

The Fiery Furnaces - Benton Harbor Blues
Deadboy & The Elephantmen - Ancient Man
RL Burnside - Goin' Down South (feat. Lyrics Born)
T Model Ford - Turkey And The Rabbit
Junior Kimbrough - I Feel Alright

Have a look at the Possum label here where you can both sample more mp3s and purchase the records which feature these songs.
Enjoy!
