Uncle Stuey's American Top 40, August 6th, 2009

Here's the AAA/jazz chart for the week. There's some interesting stuff down at #40. Joe Henry is one of my favorites and his new CD comes out in a couple of weeks; you can download a cut via his website and it sounds pretty damn good. The Low Anthem is kind of a countrified Over the Rhine.
