This week's Great American Music Hour Track Of The Week is "Ballad Of The Busy Head" by Atlanta, Georgia's High Cotton from their new live album Hanging By A Thread. A recent review said, "High Cotton perform Americana/Folk original music with side steps to Country, Blues and Folk Rock. They are a synthesis of each members' past musical experiences, including, Folk, Jazz, Country, Celtic, Rock, 50’s Doo-Wop and even Storytelling. We'd say they are somewhere between Patsy and U2 and Cash and Coltrane…" Today we present the Nanci Griffith-influenced track, "Ballad Of The Busy Head." Hanging By A

This week's Great American Music Hour Track Of The Week is "Splits" by The Dolorama Project from their new album Subject To Change. Close to a one-man show, the Dolorama Project has been staged by Roeland Dol, an editor who compiles dictionaries by day and songs by night. The Project's album, Subject To Change, contains 14 tracks in various tones and voices, all of which emerged during the recording process. Since love and life don't always lead to happy endings (or seldom without a bit of a struggle anyway), most of the lyrics have a certain weary quality, but it's not all gloomy stuff. Subjec
