This One’s For Him, the outstanding double-CD tribute to Guy Clark, lands in the #1 spot this week after a steady run up the Americana Music radio airplay chart. You’ll find our review here.
New to the chart this week:
– At #17, the massive Chimes of Freedom tribute to Bob Dylan. The album, with a generation-spanning line-up of artists (Patti Smith, My Morning Jacket, Lucinda Williams, the Belle Brigade, Joan Baez and Jackson Browne among them) benefits Amnesty International.
– At #29, Ani DeFranco’s Which Side Are You On?
– At #32, Orbo and the Longshots’ Prairie Sun.
– At #37 , the self-titled album by Sons of Fathers
– At #38, Lincoln Durham’s The Shovel vs. The Howling Bones
And this note: The much-debated Grammy nominee Linda Chorney had one of the most-added albums on Americana music radio this week, with 10 stations picking up Emotional Jukebox.
