First off, a quick announcement that our latest Uncut Ultimate Music Guide will be out next week, dedicated this time to Radiohead. I’ll write more about that soon, but in the meantime, while I’m finishing the next issue of Uncut itself, please dig in to the assembled tunes below.

Special attention this week to Ryley Walker, whose “Primrose Green” is outrageously strong, and whose Twitter feed @Ryley_walker is a constant source of entertainment, to me at least… “Why do acoustic guitarists have to play next to a fucking lamp on stage so much?…”
