When Elvis left the building 40 years ago, he left a lot of his music behind-more than he could have imagined. Eccentricity and exuberance go hand in hand on Bloodshot’s first ever holiday album.Įlvis Presley: Christmas with Elvis and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra The highlights are too many to mention, but suffice it to say Ruby Boots’ “I Slept Through Christmas,” Ha Ha Tonka’s “The List,” Jon Langford’s “Christmas Carol, Christmas Ray” and Kelly Hogan’s “Blue Snowfall” are standouts by any measure. Bloodshot has never been a slacker when it comes to self-promotion, and there are enough interesting names here-Ha Ha Tonka, Dex Romweber Duo, James Elkington and Ron Gallo among them-to make it a necessary acquisition any time of year, particularly for admirers of the label’s roughshod, renegade brand of Americana.

When Houston hip-hop blew up in 2005, Z-Ro failed to capitalize. All of them were well regarded, both by critics and Southern hip-hop audiences, but were overlooked by the general public. Prince's infamous H-Town indie label Rap-A-Lot and released seven albums over the next five years, both solo and as a member of the group Guerilla Maab. In the tradition of Houston hip-hop pioneers Scarface and UGK, the album was dark and violent. Word quickly spread of Z-Ro's prowess, and in 1998 the emcee released his debut, Look What You Did to Me.
Z-Ro's deep, laconic voice was a perfect foil for the DJ's approach: slowing down beats to a snail's pace to simulate the buzz from a codeine high. In the mid-'90s, the fledgling emcee was noticed by DJ Screw's already notorious Screwed Up Click.
