Took a listen to Blackberry Smoke's new EP, The Southern Ground Sessions. From what I can gather these are live takes in one.
I wonder why EP's are the thing lately. Is it to do with production costs? Is it that people aren't really buying full albums? Or a bit of both? Or is it a dearth of material? This was 25 minutes in all so they could've stuck another 15 on, but I suppose that's where filler comes in. Then again, what use is an EP where any of the tracks are filler? They all need to be superb IMHO. Anyway - just thinking out loud ... I really liked their cover of Tom Petty's "You Got Lucky", with Amanda Shires ...
