In the two-plus years of doing this blog, rare are the times I have received records (the vinyl ones) in the mail; I’d guess about three or four times at the max. (This was my favorite for sure.)

So you can imagine my surprise at the very flat package in the mailbox the other day that contained a 7″ record, the first in a series to be given away by The Fader in conjunction with Southern Comfort (kids, drink responsibly; ahem, I’ll take my free bottle now). Apparently, only 500 of each 7″ will be pressed, and they decided to send one to me. Oh, joy.

The first record has My Morning Jacket’s Jim James joining M. Ward for Magic Trick (Kansas City Remix) on the A-side; the original version is on M. Ward’s Post-War. The B-side is Ladyhawk’s Soap.

I had converted Magic Trick to mp3 for Heather, though I’m not sure if she’s posting or not. So I’ll take the opportunity to do it here. The link where you can find info to enter to win the 7″ was broken when I wrote this. So you may have to contact the Fader about that.

Thanks for posting this. Great song, but I have to say, this is the least remixed remix I’ve heard in a while.

yeah.. sounds a bit more like a demix than a remix. All that’s been changed is the backing instrumention has been hacked off.

[...] 6 M. Ward – Post-War After spending a considerable amount of time exploring the outer rims of the universe, I like to ground myself with a nice slice of timeless Americana. M. Ward has become one of my earthly staples, and his latest album Post-War has got me mountain bed-bound. While listening to this album, I often imagine M. Ward co-billing a Sun Records tour with the Man in Black, Johnny Cash. His sound can easily translate into the golden-era decade. Speaking of translations, how thematic is the Post-War jewel, Chinese Translation, for this Year of the Dog reflection? The track is what I call an M. Wardian fortune cookie, and Jim James is there to help you crack it open and take the proverbial ride… in bed! Zing! (Wait a minute: Ew.) [...]
