Anybody into Richard Swift his new EP is free

Sounds like he was having a blast making this EP. Also check out his last two albums.

The EP is sure to please fans of classic Swift, as the five tracks run the gamut from 60s girl group pop to Motown soul to Onasis-flavored 50s street gang doo-wop to synth-fueled pop classics (think Prince sitting in on the ?Plastic Ono? sessions) - all with Swift?s emerging trademark vocals which bring his songs to life like few other singers do today.

This makes me curious as well. I'd absolutely love to see him interviewed. Don't know if he has the attention of enough people to make that worthwhile for everyone though...

i think his last ep, with that song that sounds so nice in a fucked up kind of motown way (would you) was actually recorded at the Wilco loft, not his 4 track.
