You wouldn't think that an album whose closing song is a beautiful tune paradoxically titled "Grudge F***" would be a candidate for album of the year, yet The Pernice Brothers' Live A Little is, from where I sit, a gorgeous album that deserves all the accolades it likely hasn't gotten (I don't know; I dropped out of reading the music press some time back).
Joe Pernice isn't going to save rock and roll - if necessary, that would be a task best left to Sloan and Drive-By Truckers - but Live A Little's unexpected and sudden place in my heavy rotation is a well-deserved one, and where the hell has he been the last 10 years, anyway?
