Although Platinum & Drambuie does sound nice

Forget Rubber & Beer, Wood & Whiskey and Platinum & Drambuie! The best combination is obviously Iron & Wine.
Iron & Wine is Sam Beam who with ‘The Shepherd’s Dog’ has made one of the most enchanting albums this year. Listening to it may cause you to imagine yourself wandering through imaginary woods (so it’s an imaginary wood when you’re already imagining it? Yes it is, now shut up and do as I told you!) where everything is made of iron and wine…and there are all these…men…with beards…

But it may also just enchant you (you already said enchanted! Go away! Who the hell are you anyway?) …without all those useless images.

Anyway, his folkish masterpiece can be heard in its entirety on his myspace.



My favorites are:

Iron & Wine – Innocent Bones (myspace)

Iron & Wine – Lovesong of the Buzzard (myspace)

Iron & Wine – Carousel (mp3)
