Music on TV - Week of 06.06.11: My Morning Jacket

My Morning Jacket's latest release, Circuital, hit the shelves last week while I was delinquent in my 'new releases' post, so lets give the release some love. It ain't no Z, but still worthy of the words 'return to' following the slightl disappointment of Evil Urges.

Other items of not this week:
Letterman is celebrating the first ever (and, I'm going to predict, last) Drum Solo Week, featuring some of music's best skin pounders. Late Show drummer Anton Fig starts things off Monday, and he's followed by Sheila E. on Tuesday; the legendary jazz drummer Roy Haynes goes on Wednesday; and Rush's Neil Peart brings bangs too-many-piece set on Thursday.

The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson welcomes The Goldberg Sisters, which is notable in that it's actor Adam Goldberg, featuring help from Flaming Lips' Steven Drozd among others.
