BART BEALMEAR'S BEST OF 2003
| Best New Releases: | | 1 |  | My Morning Jacket - It Still Moves [ATO/RCA] For those long afternoons when one is hung over, but one still wants to rock. Buy This Album | | 2 |  | Drive-By Truckers - Decoration Day [New West] Skynyrd-n-Westerberg style rock-n-roll thats distinctly southernand absolutely American. Buy This Album | | 3 |  | The White Stripes - Elephant [V2] Go ahead and try to deny the appeal of this inventive rock/blues/folk/garage/pop myth-making duo. Buy This Album | | 4 |  | Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros - Streetcore [Hellcat] If you arent moved by the late Strummers vocal during Silver & Gold, thats ok, but youve got PlayDough for a heart (and it dont smell fine). Buy This Album | | 5 |  | Grandpaboy - Dead Man Shake [Fat Possum] Though it aint as strong as last years loose and rockin Mono, Paul Westerbergs take on the blues manages to be a sloppier and more lively record. Buy This Album | | Best Archival Releases/Reissues: | | 1 |  | Guided By Voices - Hardcore UFOs: Revelations, Epiphanies and Fast Food in the Western Hemisphere [Matador] This multi-disc box-set upholds the theory that Robert Pollard is the single most gifted pop songwriter of this science fiction world we find ourselves wandering in. Buy This Album | | 2 |  | The American Song-Poem Anthology - Do You Know the Difference Between Big Wood and Brush [Bar/None] Nave, passionate souls collaborate with soulless corporations, resulting in the strangest music ever produced in the land of opportunity. Buy This Album | | 3 |  | Gary Wilson - Forgotten Lovers [Motel] Following last years re-release of his fabulous album, You Think You Really Know Me, is a compilation of rare recordings from the enigma that is an even more out-there collection of weird, lonely, and creepy tunes. Buy This Album | | 4 |  | Neil Young - On The Beach [Reprise] "Though my problems are meaningless, that dont make them go away. Buy This Album | | 5 |  | Rock City - Rock City [Lucky Seven] These previously unreleased recordings lay open for all to hear one of the misplaced keys in the evolution of Big Star, the greatest power-pop band of them all.
