As his new album's title relates, Loudon Wainwright III is "Older Than My Old Man Now" -- his old man, of course, being the late Loudon Wainwright, Jr., the esteemed Life Magazine columnist and senior editor. "Singer-songwriter contemporaries of mine have recently taken to writing memoirs and autobiographies," notes Wainwright. "I decided I would try to tell the story of my swinging life in a three and one-half minute song."He's speaking specifically of the album's lead track "The Here & the Now," which features jazz guitar great John Scofield and backing vocals from all four of Wainwright's children -- Rufus and Martha Wainwright, Lucy Wainwright Roche and Lexie Kelly Wainwright -- as well as two of the three moms, Suzzy Roche and Ritamarie Kelly. But the album as a whole reflects the stage he's reached in his life, and as he so wryly puts it, the "death 'n' decay" that inevitably accompanies it.

Sonny Landreth’s 11th album, bearing the fittingly evocative title Elemental Journey, is something completely different from the Louisiana slide wizard. Released on his own Landfall label, the new CD is Landreth’s first all-instrumental effort and his most adventurous work to date. “From day one on the guitar, many genres of music have had an impact on me” says Landreth. “For these recordings, I drew from some of those influences that I hadn’t gone to on previous albums with my vocals. Trading off the lyrics this time, I focused solely on the instrumental side and all this music poured out. Then I asked some extraordinary musicians to help me layer the tracks in hopes of inspiring a lot of imagery for the listeners.”
