MARK OLSON & GARY LOURIS Ready For The Flood (2008 US 13-track advance promotional CD - although they've toured together and renewed their friendship, this is the first recording by Olson and Louris since Olson left the Jayhawks in 1995. Producedby Chris Robinson [The Black Crowes], 'Ready For The Flood' captures the stripped down, finger picked guitar playing and Laurel Canyon sound of an earlier time, with allusions to English folk [Bert Jansch, Nick Drake, John Renbourne].
