Fleet Foxes
Sun Giant from Fleet Foxes. A lovely song for the blank page of a New Year.
Wisdom for the credit crunch from Dickens: “My other piece of advice, Copperfield,” said Mr. Micawber, “you know. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen nineteen six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds ought and six, result misery. The blossom is blighted, the leaf is withered, the god of day goes down upon the dreary scene, and—and, in short, you are for ever floored. As I am!”

Shades of the Beach Boys, CSNY, Steeleye Span and those spine-chilling church choirs recorded by Alan Lomax for the Library of Congress back in the '40s and '50s. 2009 will be their year.
Have you come across Headless Heroes?

Thanks for the link I'll check it out. I love harmony singing. These guys reminded me of Crosby Stills and Nash.
