At first glance, you'd think Teddy Thompson might have missed his moment. A good-looking singer-songwriter, whose emotional mix of folk, rock and country is complemented with more than a dash of pop sensibility, the 31-year-old Thompson would have seemed guaranteed success a few years ago when the likes of David Gray and Damien Rice were dominating the airwaves.

The son of 70s folk-rock stars Richard and Linda Thompson, he and his singer sister Kamila were brought up by their mother. Teddy Thompson? This kid's amazing; his cover of Leonard Cohen's "Tonight Will Be Fine" on the DVD, I'm Your Man , makes a rather disappointing portrait of the world's greatest singer-songwriter worth the price of admission. He's channelling Hank Williams; I swear, when I witnessed...

This last week, Slade Smiley and his “ex” Jo De L Rosa, were seen at a star studded Malibu Beach party. Maybe it’s just me, but these two sure spend alot of time together for being “broken up.” A local newspaper reported: Nowadays, Malibu is the place celebrities crave when they want to make a splash.

Lots of old favorites here, and (with #7 and #8) a pair of newer tracks I’ve grown fond of. A note about #2: when I was first doing a little bit of internet dating, back in early 1999 on match.com, I remember listing that track as the one that best described my life. [...]

These are shots of Brody Jenner's mom actress Linda Thompson at the beach. Since we've been having a dialog about abortion these past couple of days I thought I'd show what a woman who should've had one looks like: HOT!

Only son of British folk legends Richard and Linda Thompson, Teddy writes no-frills, manly confessionals with none of the pomp of say, Rufus Wainwright. Straight as Thompson plays it, the music is clever, difficult to place. Halfway through the rockabilly groove of Can’t Sing Straight, a Mariarchi trumpet bursts into glorious solo.
