New Music Tuesday - July 27th

Tom Jones, Praise and Blame: For his follow-up to 2008's 24 Hours, Tom Jones chose to revisit his roots with a project that has a soulful, spiritual feel. Traditional songs like "Nobody's Fault But Mine" and "Ain't No Grave" to covers like Bob Dylan's "What Good Am I?" and John Lee Hooker's "Burning Hell" make up four of the 12 tracks featured on Praise and Blame. Tom also taps the likes of Memphis soul legend Booker T. Jones and singer-songwriter Patty Griffin and her long-time musical partner Dave Rawlings as guests.

Clay Aiken, Tried & True - Live!: American Idol alum Clay Aiken release his DVD companion piece to his Tried and True album which was released earlier this year. Filmed in March, this concert features the footage from his PBS special which was taped at the Progress Energy Center for the Performing Arts in his hometown of Raleigh, North Carolina. Expect Clay to cover classic standards in this piece including "Mack the Knife," "What Kind of Fool Am I" and "Suspicious Minds."
