LAST NIGHT OUT
Released June 14, 2005. Produced by David Barbe. Featuring guest performances by John Mills, Kyle Spence, Todd Nance, William Tonks, John Neff, Anna Broach, and David Barbe. Recorded in September and October of 2004, with a view from what seemed like the bottom of the world: W was in the process of winning his second Presidential election, my personal relationships and habits, and seemingly my band, were spinning out of control and disintigrating, I had a gun stuck in my face one night on the outskirts of Athens, and all the while that sickening montage of images from the war in Iraq kept snaking out of the TV screen, computer screen, newspapers, radio speakers. The bright spot in the middle of this carnage was the process of making this CD. Hooking up with some beloved friends and letting a rock n roll record fly. It was top notch therapy, baby. My weird way of slowly regaining my sanity.
But this was absolutely intended to be Bloodkin's "last record". Title and all, it fits. I don't know if we'll ever be able to come up with a more appropriate last chapter. We'll see. -DH
"Not sure if this is even 'officially' out, but deserves to be. This has some of the most disturbing songs I've ever heard, in that Big Star 3rd, Tonight's the Night kind of way, only it sounds like the Stones record they forgot how to make about 30 years ago."
-Patterson Hood, Drive-By Truckers
"Easily Bloodkin's best record to date."
-Kenneth Aguar, Athens Online.
"The album is loaded with that signature intensity and emotion that Bloodkin's fans have come to expect, and may be their most promising release to date."
-Ben Bounds, Oxford Town Magazine.
