brilliant!

Grace and her band put on a great show. The one at Lee's Palace a couple of years ago was a blast. I'd be at this one in a heartbeat, but I am running a fund-raiser at YukYuk's that night for my daughter's hockey team. Should be good for a laugh. Have a great show. You going to tape it bradm?

i've never been one to do large backups. Music would be a huge loss, but PICTURES are the most precious. The other week I got a Dlink 320 NAS with two 2TB drives in it. They are RAID formatted so one mirrors the other. If one drive fails the other is always a perfect clone. Love it. I'm going to backup my pics/home vids to the cloud soon as extra precaution.

I hear ya POG and edger

This is rich. Now the Post has a new article calling dedicated to calling her article "courageous". http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/2011/08/23/jonathan-kay-who-has-the-guts-to-call-out-laytons-cynical-manifesto-blatchford-of-course/ UGH. Tacky, classless, shitty, cold, shameful ... Jonathan Kay, YOU are a CUNT too. (again, sorry for the use of the c*&t word. I don't use it, but it is warranted here, IMHO)

First: Then:

I am really sorry to use this term, but i believe it is justified: Christie Blatchford ... you are a CUNT!

http://bit.ly/pyKko6 Little Feat - Dixie Chicken Following Roy Estrada’s departure during the supporting tour for Sailin’ Shoes, Lowell George became infatuated with New Orleans R&B and mellow jamming, all of which came to a head on their third album, 1973’s Dixie Chicken. Although George is firmly in charge - he dominates the record, writing or co-writing seven of the 10 songs - this is the point where Little Feat found its signature sound as a band, and no album they would cut from this point on was too different from this seductive, laid-back, funky record. But no album would be quite as good, either, since Dixie Chicken still had much of the charming lyrical eccentricities of the first two albums, plus what is arguably George’s best-ever set of songs. Partially due to the New Orleans infatuation, the album holds together better than Sailin’ Shoes and George takes full advantage of the band’s increased musical palette, writing songs that sound easy but are quite sophisticated, such as the rolling “Two Trains,†the gorgeous, shimmering “Juliette,†the deeply soulful and funny “Fat Man in the Bathtub†and the country-funk of the title track, which was covered nearly as frequently as “Willin’.†In addition to “Walkin’ All Night,†a loose bluesy jam by Barrere and Bill Payne, the band also hauls out two covers which fit George’s vibe perfectly: Allan Toussaint’s slow burner “On Your Way Down†and “Fool Yourself,†which was written by Fred Tackett, who later joined a reunited Feat in the ’80s. It all adds up to a nearly irresistible record, filled with great songwriting, sultry grooves, and virtuosic performances that never are flashy. Little Feat, along with many jam bands that followed, tried to top this album, but they never managed to make a record this understated, appealing and fine. - Stephen Thomas Erlewine mp3@320CBR Track List 1. “Dixie Chicken†(Lowell George, Fred Martin) – 3:55 2. “Two Trains†(George) – 3:06 3. “Roll Um Easy†(George) – 2:30 4. “On Your Way Down†(Allen Toussaint) – 5:31 5. “Kiss It Off†(George) – 2:56 6. “Fool Yourself†(Fred Tackett) – 3:10 7. “Walkin’ All Night†(Paul Barrère, Bill Payne) – 3:35 8. “Fat Man In The Bathtub†(George) – 4:29 9. “Juliette†(George) – 3:20 10. “Lafayette Railroad†(George, Payne) – 3:40 http://bit.ly/pyKko6

So sad. I fondly remember meeting the man when he was a rookie city counselor when I was in Grade 7. I couldn't believe how friendly and genuine he was with a bunch of school kids. He really listened and took his time. In recent years I had seen him locking his bike up outside of the CBC when he was on his way in to do an interview. Always a smile on his face and hellos to people in the street. Fare the well Jack. You were a true supporter of a better Toronto in all your years here. I only wish we could have had more time to see you as leader of the opposition in Ottawa. May those who follow you take up your spirit and drive to hold our leaders accountable.

http://bit.ly/puqWmp Little Feat - Feats Don’t Fail Me Now If Dixie Chicken represented a pinnacle of Lowell George as a songwriter and band leader, its sequel Feats Don’t Fail Me Now is the pinnacle of Little Feat as a group, showcasing each member at their finest. Not coincidentally, it’s the moment where George begins to recede from the spotlight, leaving the band as a true democracy. These observations are only clear in hindsight, since if Feats Don’t Fail Me Now is just taken as a record, it’s nothing more than a damn good rock & roll record. That’s not meant as a dismissal, either, since it’s hard to make a rock & roll record as seemingly effortless and infectious as this. Though it effectively builds on the Southern-fried funkiness of Dixie Chicken, it’s hardly as mellow as that record - there’s a lot of grit, tougher rhythms, lots of guitar and organ. It’s as supple as Chicken, though, which means that it’s the sound of a touring band at their peak. As it happens, the band is on the top of their writing game as well, with Bill Payne contributing the rollicking “Oh Atlanta†and Paul Barrere turning in one of his best songs, the jazzy funk of “Skin it Back.†Each has a co-writing credit with George — Payne on the unreleased Little Feat-era nugget “The Fan†and Barrere (plus Fred Martin) on the infectious title track — who also has a couple of classics with “Rock and Roll Doctor†and the great “Spanish Moon.†Feats peters out toward the end, as the group delves into a 10-minute medley of two Sailin’ Shoes songs, but that doesn’t hurt one of the best albums Little Feat ever cut. It’s so good, the group used it as the template for the rest of their career. - Stephen Thomas Erlewine mp3@320CBR Track List 1. “Rock & Roll Doctor†(Lowell George, Fred Martin) – 2:57 2. “Oh, Atlanta†(Bill Payne) – 3:26 3. “Skin It Back†(Paul Barrère) – 4:11 4. “Down the Road†(George) – 3:46 5. “Spanish Moon†(George) – 3:01 6. “Feats Don’t Fail Me Now†(Barrère, George, Martin Kibbee) – 2:27 7. “The Fan†(George, Payne) – 4:30 8. “Medley: Cold Cold Cold/Tripe Face Boogie†(George/Richie Hayward, Payne) – 10:00 http://bit.ly/puqWmp

http://bit.ly/q7w1Xw Betty Davis - Betty Davis There is one testimonial about Betty Davis that is universal: she was a woman ahead of her time. In our contemporary moment, this may not be as self-evident as it was thirty years ago – we live in an age that’s been profoundly changed by flamboyant flaunting of female sexuality: from Parlet to Madonna, Lil Kim to Kelis. Yet, back in 1973 when Betty Davis first showed up in her silver go-go boots, dazzling smile and towering Afro, who could you possibly have compared her to? Marva Whitney had the voice but not the independence. Labelle wouldn’t get sexy with their “Lady Marmalade†for another year while Millie Jackson wasn’t “Feelin’ Bitchy†until 1977. Even Tina Turner, the most obvious predecessor to Betty’s fierce style wasn’t completely out of Ike’s shadow until later in the decade. Ms. Davis’s unique story, still sadly mostly unknown, is unlike any other in popular music. Betty wrote the song “Uptown†for the Chambers Brothers before marrying Miles Davis in the late ‘60s, Betty’s impact on the immortal jazz trumpeter was tremendous. Her cutting-edge musical tastes and incomparable sense of style were too much for Miles to resist. A self-righteous 23-year old model, Betty conquered the man twice her age with a potent mixture of youth, beauty, and sex. Within a year, she had completely remade Miles in her own youthful image. As she poured herself into him, his playing grew younger, his outlook fresh. She ripped through his closets, tossing out the elegant suits he had worn for years. This was the late ’60s, revolution was in the air, and suits were the uniforms of the Establishment. The time had come to get hip, and Betty pointed the way, influencing him with psychedelic rock, and introducing him to Jimi Hendrix — personally inspiring the classic album ’Bitches Brew.’ The influence of Hendrix and especially Sly Stone on Miles Davis was obvious on the album Bitches Brew, which ushered in the era of jazz fusion. The origin of the album’s title is unknown, but some believe Miles was subtly paying tribute to the woman whose intersecting relationships helped spur the album’s genesis. In fact, it is said that he originally wanted to call the album Witches’ Brew — it was Betty who convinced him to change it. It is believed that Hendrix and Betty Davis had an affair that hastened the end of her marriage to Miles Davis, but Betty denies this. What’s more, Hendrix and Miles stayed close after the divorce, planning to record until Hendrix’s death. Her taste and style were cutting edge and her songwriting ability was way ahead of its time as well. Betty not only wrote every song she ever recorded and produced every album after her first, but the young woman penned the tunes that got The Commodores signed to Motown. The Detroit label soon came calling, pitching a Motown songwriting deal, which Betty turned down. Motown wanted to own everything. Heading to the UK, Marc Bolan of T. Rex urged the creative dynamo to start writing for herself. A common thread throughout Betty’s career would be her unbending Do-It-Yourself ethic, which made her quickly turn down anyone who didn’t fit with the vision. She would eventually say no to Eric Clapton as her album producer, seeing him as too banal. In 1973, Davis would finally kick off her cosmic career with an amazingly progressive hard funk and sweet soul self-titled debut. Davis showcased her fiercely unique talent and features such gems as “If I’m In Luck I Might Get Picked Up†and “Game Is My Middle Name.†The album Betty Davis was recorded with Sly & The Family Stone’s rhythm section, sharply produced by Sly Stone drummer Greg Errico (however this was to be the last album produced by anyone other than herself.), and featured backing vocals from Sylvester and the Pointer Sisters. Davis released two more studio albums, They Say I’m Different and her major label debut on Island Records Nasty Gal. None of the three albums was a commercial success. Davis remained a cult figure as a singer, due in part to her open sexual attitude, which was controversial for the time. Some of her shows were boycotted and her songs were not played on the radio due to pressure by religious groups. However, with the passage of time her records have become highly regarded by collectors of soul and funk music and have been sampled by Ice Cube, Ludacris, Method Man, Redman, Godfather Don and Talib Kweli…just to name a few. - shelikes12inches mp3@320CBR Track List 1.

http://bit.ly/n45rqB Warren Zevon - The Wind In late August of 2002, Warren Zevon was diagnosed with mesothelioma, a virulent and inoperable form of lung cancer; with his life expectancy expected to be no more than a few months, Zevon focused his dwindling energies on completing a final album, and The Wind, released a year after Zevon learned of his condition, was the result. With a back story like that, it’s all but impossible to ignore the subtext of Zevon’s mortality while listening to The Wind, though, thankfully, he’s opted not to make an album about illness or death (ironically, he already did that with 2000’s Life’ll Kill Ya) or create a musical last will and testament. While The Wind occasionally and obliquely touches on Zevon’s illness — most notably the mournful “Keep Me in Your Heart†and the dirty blues raunch of “Rub Me Raw†— in many ways it sounds like a fairly typical Warren Zevon album, though of course this time out the caustic wit cuts a bit deeper, the screeds against a world gone mad sound more woeful, and the love songs suggest higher emotional stakes than before. The Wind also lays in a higher compliment of celebrity guest stars than usual, and while obviously a lot of these folks are old friends wanting to help a pal in need, in some cases the ringers help to carry the weight for Zevon, who, while in good voice, can’t summon up the power he did in his salad days. And remarkably, the trick works on several cuts; Bruce Springsteen’s rollicking guest vocal on “Disorder in the House†offers just the kick the tune needed, Tom Petty’s laid-back smirk brings a sleazy undertow to “The Rest of the Night,†and Dwight Yoakam’s harmonies on “Dirty Life and Times†are the perfect touch for the tune. In terms of material, The Wind isn’t a great Zevon album, but it’s a pretty good one; “El Amour de Mi Vida†is a simple but affecting look at lost love, “Prison Grove†is a superior character piece about life behind bars, and “Numb as a Statue,†“Disorder in the House,†and “Dirty Life and Times†prove the prospect of imminent death hasn’t alleviated Zevon’s cynicism in the least. (It’s hard to say if he’s being sincere or darkly witty with his cover of “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door,†though he manages to make it work both ways.) And the assembled musicians — among them Ry Cooder, David Lindley, Joe Walsh, Don Henley, and Jim Keltner — serve up their best licks without taking the show away from Zevon, who, despite his obvious weakness, firmly commands the spotlight. The Wind feels less like a grand final statement of Warren Zevon’s career than one last walk around the field, with the star nodding to his pals, offering a last look at what he does best, and quietly but firmly leaving listeners convinced that he exits the game with no shame and no regrets. Which, all in all, is a pretty good way to remember the guy. - allmusic mp3@256CBR Track List 1. “Dirty Life and Times†(Zevon) – 3:15 2. “Disorder in the House†(Jorge Calderón, Zevon) – 4:36 3. “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door†(Bob Dylan) – 4:05 4. “Numb as a Statue†(Calderón, Zevon) – 4:08 5. “She’s Too Good for Me†(Zevon) – 3:12 6. “Prison Grove†(Calderón, Zevon) – 4:51 7. “El Amor de Mi Vida†(Calderón, Zevon) – 3:34 8. “The Rest of the Night†(Calderón, Zevon) – 4:41 9. “Please Stay†(Zevon) – 3:34 10. “Rub Me Raw†(Calderón, Zevon) – 5:44 11. “Keep Me in Your Heart†(Calderón, Zevon) – 3:28 Personnel * Warren Zevon - acoustic guitar, piano, electric guitar, keyboards, vocals * Gil Bernal - saxophone * Jackson Browne - background vocals in “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door†and “Prison Grove†* T-Bone Burnett - background vocals in “Prison Grove†* Jorge Calderón - acoustic guitar, bass, electric guitar, maracas, background vocals, tres, Spanish vocals * Mike Campbell - electric guitar * Luis Conte - percussion, bongos, conga, drums, maracas * Ry Cooder - slide guitar in “Dirty Life and Times†and “Prison Grove†* Brad Davis - electric guitar, background vocals * Steve Gorman - drums in “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door†* Reggie Hamilton - upright bass * Emmylou Harris - background vocals in “Please Stay†* Don Henley - drums in “Dirty Life and Times†and “She’s Too Good for Me†* Jim Keltner - drums * David Lindley - background vocals, lap steel guitar, electric saz * Randy Mitchell - background vocals, slide guitar * Tom Petty - background vocals in “The Rest of the Night†* James Raymond - piano * Timothy B.

http://bit.ly/r2xzbc Jimi Hendrix – West Coast Seattle Boy Very few artists have recorded as much worthwhile material in as short a time period as Jimi Hendrix. Beginning his solo career in 1966, by the time of his death in in September 1970 Hendrix had already released four albums that can only be described as classics and had wowed audiences throughout the United States and Europe. When he died, he left a vast archive of recordings in varying degrees of completion that have been the source of countless albums beginning with 1971’s Cry of Love and going through to Valleys of Neptune from earlier this year. While the early posthumous albums have been successful among fans and collectors, they have also been harshly criticized in some circles for providing only abbreviated snippets of longer songs and containing controversial overdubs. Enter West Coast Seattle Boy, the new four-CD and one-DVD box set from Legacy and Experience Hendrix which will be released on November 16. The set attempts to correct the aforementioned problem while also providing fans with alternate takes of released material, live recordings, studio jams, home demos, and early recordings showing Jimi’s prowess as a backup musician. It is the latter which comprises the set’s first disc. This disc displays Hendrix backing up several soul and R&B artists, most notably Little Richard and the Isley Brothers. While the Isley Brothers tracks are a far cry from the legendary group’s best work, the numbers by Little Richard will offer those listeners only familiar with his seminal ’50s work a completely different, and decidedly more soulful, view of the man’s music. Even without Jimi, this disc would make a fine stand-alone collection of mid-’60s R&B and it is the numbers by artists like Ray Sharpe, Rosa Lee Brooks, and Jimmy Norman that truly make up the heart of the disc. In fact, there are certain songs in which Hendrix’s presence is nearly indiscernible and you could be listening to any good studio guitarist. But there are others where he gets a brief moment in the spotlight and we know from the first notes that it can’t be anyone else. This initial disc may be the most interesting to fans of forgotten ’60s recordings, but the least interesting to Hendrix aficionados. Whichever category you fit into, it is a good look at the beginning of Hendrix’s career and a glimpse into why he was so great in the first place. Unlike the majority of today’s self-proclaimed “guitar gods,†Hendrix paid his dues on the road and in the studio with seasoned veterans prior to striking it out on his own and it is that experience that made his playing among the best ever. The second disc comes closer to the Jimi we all know and love, kicking off with an alternate take of the classic rock staple “Fire†before delving into lesser-known material. Among this material is “Little One,†an instrumental recorded for Electric Ladyland featuring Dave Mason on sitar, a hard rock comedy track titled “Calling All the Devil’s Children,†which finds Hendrix portraying a minister, and a wonderful alternate take of “Mr. Bad Luck.†Also included are the initial backing tracks of “Are You Experienced†and a slower version of “Castles Made of Sand†featuring only Jimi and drummer Mitch Mitchell. These numbers were very interesting to me and displayed beyond any doubt how far ahead of his time Hendrix really was. In fact, these backing tracks aren’t too far detached from what a new generation of Seattle musicians would be doing a few decades later when they created grunge. The best parts of disc two, though, are the six demos Hendrix recorded solo inside his hotel room in March 1968. While I had long suspected that “Long Hot Summer Night†would make a damn good folk song, I was surprised that “1983 (A Merman I Shall Turn to Be)†also makes the transition very well. Neither are as good as the finished studio versions, of course, but that is to be expected. Perhaps the best among these demos are a highly emotional cover of Dylan’s “Tears of Rage†and Jimi’s own “My Friend,†which quite possibly ranks as his best song lyrically. Disc three is something of a mixed bag, although the good far outweighs the unnecessary. Near the beginning of the disc, the listener is treated to a seemingly spontaneous medley of “Room Full of Mirrors†and “Shame, Shame, Shame†and an energetic cover of Big Mama Thornton’s “Hound Dog Blues.†We also hear several very promising unreleased tracks such as the metal-like “Messenger,†the Curtis Mayfield-inspired “Mastermind†which features Billy Cox on lead vocals, and an instrumental simply titled “Untitled Basic Track.†But just as the disc shows glimpses of Hendrix at his best in the studio, it also displays the worst of his musical excesses. A case in point is the 20-minute-plus jam with jazz organist Larry Young that shows flashes of brilliance at points, but for the most part, is simply aimless jamming. The third disc also contains several live recordings, including a pre-Woodstock version of “The Star-Spangled Bannerâ€/â€Purple Haze†medley and three outtakes from the legendary Band of Gypsys shows on New Years Eve ‘69 that extends onto to the next disc. While the former bunch do not measure up to the Woodstock versions, they still make for great listening and the latter numbers once again reiterate the need for a set of the complete Band of Gypsys recordings. The best among these is a scorching fourteen-minute version of “Stone Free†that opens the collection’s final disc. The remainder of the final disc explores the direction Hendrix was heading in his final months. The best tune on the disc, and perhaps the entire set, is the beautiful instrumental “Burning Desire†which is hard-rocking in its brilliant delivery and jazz-like in its complexity. It is truly difficult to understand why this track has not been released sooner. The great material continues with the blues-rocker “Lonely Avenue,†and the uncompleted “All God’s Children.†We also get to hear the last instance of Jimi as a backup musician as he adds guitar to Arthur Lee and Love’s “Everlasting First,†released here for the first time in it’s complete form. The set ends with an acoustic home demo of “Suddenly November Morning†from the legendary “Black Gold†sessions. The tune ranks as one of the box’s most intriguing numbers and one which had the potential to be a true classic. The fourth disc was my personal favorite and while the songs on it were never completed and therefore can’t warrant a comparison to Jimi’s four original albums, having listened to the entire set and hearing the alternate takes of classic numbers and the way Hendrix worked in the studio, it is hard to not draw the conclusion that he was just starting to reach his peak in the late summer of 1970. While we will never know what Hendrix would have released in ‘71, I am almost certain that it would have been his masterpiece. The music on the four discs enhanced my already immense level of respect for Hendrix’s music and, likewise, the DVD **Nowhere to be found yet**which accompanies the set enhanced my respect for Hendrix as a person. The documentary Voodoo Child features photographs and footage of Jimi as funk legend Bootsy Collins narrates, allowing Hendrix to “speak†in his own words through interviews and never-before-seen writings. The film shows a man confident in his talents but, at the same time, very humble regarding his success. I would highly recommend the DVD to anybody who likes Hendrix’s music and wants to know more about the man behind it. - Adam Sheets MP3@320CBR Track List Disc One 01.

http://bit.ly/qLXYMt Little Feat - Waiting For Columbus (Deluxe Edition) What constitutes a great live album? It’s clearly not the mere application of a band’s studio performances. That approach may satisfy the attending audience, but what’s the point of making a record that sounds just like the one that already exists? It’s far more rewarding to experience a live album on which a band turbocharges its studio sound (as The Who did on the scorching 1970 document Live At Leeds); or expands the material through improvisation (The Allman Brothers Band At Fillmore East from 71 classic example); or enlarges the aural palate to open up a body of work (like The Band’s 1972 beauty Rock Of All Ages, its Allen Toussaint horn arrangements). What makes Little Feat’s Waiting For Columbus memorable is that it seamlessly and quite naturally encompasses all these approaches. Waiting For Columbus (Deluxe Edition) contains the original Waiting For Columbus as well as ten tracks recorded during the same tour that were not included in the original album. It also contains previously unreleased outtakes. Little Feat’s lone official live album was chopped up for its initial CD release, with two tracks lopped off so it could fit on a single disc (they showed up, inexplicably, as bonus tracks on the CD issue of The Last Record Album). After years of neglect, the album was finally restored in 2002, except “restored†might not be the right word for it. It was re-thought and expanded, with the original album now spilling over onto a second disc (which is where the encore is), which is fleshed out with seven previously unissued outtakes, plus three songs initially released on Hoy-Hoy. It’s a lovely package, with copious notes from Bud Scoppa and lots of photos, great remastered sound, and generous bonus tracks. It’s as well done as could be expected, but be forewarned — none of the unreleased material is as good as what made the record, tending to be a little slack and emphasizing their encroaching fascination with fusion. That’s really not that big of a deal, of course, since collectors will buy this no matter what, and they’ll be happy with this lavish, loving package. Little Feat: Lowell George (vocals, guitar, maracas, cowbell) Paul Barrere (vocals, guitar) Bill Payne (vocals, piano, electric piano, organ, synthesizer) Kenny Gradney (bass) Richie Hayward (drums, percussion, background vocals) Sam Clayton (congas, percussion, background vocals) With: Mick Taylor (guitar); Tower Of Power (horns); Michael McDonald, Patrick Simmons (background vocals). Recorded live at the Rainbow Theatre, London, England; The Lisner Auditorium, Washington, D.C. in August 1977. Includes liner notes by Bud Scoppa.

http://bit.ly/oOqrlj The New Mastersounds - Breaks From the Border Rather than take a well-deserved break after a U.S. festival tour, Leeds U.K. funk quartet the New Mastersounds flew to Tomillo, Texas’ Sonic Ranch, a residential neighborhood studio located near the border between the States and Mexico. Deciding they wanted to append their near-constant instrumental output with vocals — that have primarily occurred on stages rather than in the studio — they flew in Rhianna “Freckles†Kenny to collaborate in the writing, arranging, and recording process. Cut in just over a week, Breaks from the Border reflects the bubbling, energetically infectious sounds of the New Mastersounds at their best, while adding depth and dimension to some beautifully breezy, elastic, harmonically savvy vocals that never manage to get in the way of the quartet’s knotty, rave-up funky grooves. All four members harmonize on opener “Take What You Need,†which merely highlights their backbeat-driven Meters-influenced funk with an into-the-red bassline groove led by Pete Shand. They pick up the tempo with “Run the Gauntlet,†featuring a smoking B-3 solo by Joe Tatton. The knotty breaks by kit man Simon Allen fuel the shimmering group vocals on “On the Border,†while the finger-popping dialogue between the bassline and Eddie Roberts’ jazz guitar wrangling on “Freckles†accounts for one of the finest moments on the disc. The burning Afro-funk at the heart of “Walk in These Shoes†reveals the quartet at full rhythm burn, even with the four-part harmonies adding a breezy, humid element to the mix. Roberts’ guitar break is one of the best on any New Mastersounds studio effort. “Josus†walks on the jazz side of funk and “Can You Get It?†sounds like an update of the Meters’ bubble and broil. Kenny takes her own lead vocal break on the album-closing jazzer “Up in the Air,†with spacy psychedelic soul grooves from the New Mastersounds. On paper, it would have seemed that Breaks from the Border might have fallen short; as it stands, however, this set adds another level of from-the-basement groove to the quartet’s already formidable attack. - Thom Jurek mp3@320 Track List 1.

http://bit.ly/pjbF6m Arthur Crudup - Crudup Street (The Blues District) Crudup was one of America’s top-selling blues artists long before Elvis Presley, Elton John, Rod Stewart, and other pop stars began recording his songs. But like many other performers who had little education and little familiarity with the music business or copyright law, Crudup fell victim to exploitation. Only after his death did his heirs finally succeed in securing his copyrights and long-overdue royalties. His best known records included “Rock Me Mama,†“Mean Old ‘Frisco Blues,†and three that were covered by Presley: “That’s All Right,†“My Baby Left Me,†and “So Glad You’re Mine.†Crudup rarely played concerts or theaters until the blues revival of the 1960s, but he was a juke joint favorite in Mississippi, where he performed with Elmore James, Sonny Boy Williamson, and locals such as George Lee, Odell Lay, and Clyde Lay. mp3@320 Track List 01.

http://bit.ly/p5XKSJ T-Bone Walker - Walker Crossing (The Blues District) T-Bone Walker invented the guitar solo as we know it — he was the guy who figured out how to make an electric guitar cry and moan. Born in Texas in 1910, he was a bluesman touring the South by the age of fifteen. As early as 1935, he was playing primitive electric-guitar models. But he shocked everyone with his 1942 debut single, “Mean Old World,†playing bent notes, vibrato sobs and more wild new electric sounds that other guitarists hadn’t even dreamed of. Walker invented a new musical language, from the urban flash of “The Hustle Is On†to the dread of “Stormy Monday.†Through the Forties and Fifties, he led his suave L.A. jump-blues combo on classics such as “You’re My Best Poker Hand,†“I Know Your Wig Is Gone†and “Long Skirt Baby Blues.†mp3@320 Track List 01.

To help turn up the volume around hepatitis C, a one night only benefit concert featuring The Allman Brothers Band will be held at The Beacon Theatre in New York on July 27, the eve of World Hepatitis Day. “There are many people who have been diagnosed with chronic hepatitis C, but aren’t taking action. I want to tell them, don’t wait. Doing nothing is not an option; they need to talk with their doctor,†said Allman, a founding member of The Allman Brothers Band. “I made the decision to take action and talk to my doctor, so that I could get back to making the music I love. I want others to take that action too, and if I can help make that happen, I’ve done my job.†Proceeds from the benefit concert will be donated to community-based organizations that provide education and support services to people with chronic hepatitis C. mp3@320 Track List: Set I: 1.

http://bit.ly/r0e8Ji Grateful Dead - Road Trips Vol. 4 No. 4 It’s hard to believe that a year like 1982, which included so many excellent shows, has only been represented once on an authorized Grateful Dead release — Dick’s Picks 32 from the 8/7/82 Alpine Valley show. What gives? Who the hell knows? All we know is, that’s wrong and it’s time to make it right! Which brings us to the latest Road Trips selection — an indisputably fine show from that underrated year: the complete Philly Spectrum 4/6/82 concert, with a heapin’ helpin’ of the 4/5/82 Spectrum show to fill out this awesome three-disc set. What, you may rightfully ask, is the big deal about this particular show? Oh, you’re full of questions, aren’t you? Well, let’s start with a rock-solid first set in which both Bob and Jerry are “on†from the get-go, singin’ their hearts out on a wide range of mostly uptempo tunes—“Cold Rain and Snow†> “Promised Land†is the pumped-up opening, and the set also contains sparkling versions of “Big Railroad Blues, “Jack-A-Roe,†“Might As Well,†“Mama Tried†> “Mexicali Blues,†“It’s All Over Now†and others. There’s barely time to take a breather. Those Philly fans always expected big things out of the boys when they came to town, so most Spectrum shows have some extra zip to them. Or maybe it’s because the band was fueled by cheesesteaks. As is so often the case, however, the real fireworks come in the second set. It starts with a massively funky “Shakedown†that’s one of the best of this era, eases into a superb “Lost Sailor†> “Saint of Circumstance†(that combo was always a little richer in the second set), and then into an elegant “Terrapin†before the Rhythm Devils take over. Mickey and Bill have quite a duel, too, eventually ceding the stage for “space†and a rollicking “Truckin’†to start the back half of the set. A short but fiery “Other One†follows, and then that crashes into another stupendous “Morning Dew,†which totally lives up to the intense energy of the earlier proceedings. “Sugar Magnolia†is the joyous romp you always hope it will be, but then ol’ Jer leaves us on a note of dark mystery, with an inspired “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue.†Completing the discs are a few tunes from the previous night’s first set, including the rarely played “Deep Elem Blues†and Bob’s still-newish cover of “Man Smart, Woman Smarter,†plus a beautifully played chunk of the pre-“drums†second set from 4/5 that has “Bertha†rolling into “Playing in the Band,†which detours at “Ship of Fools,†before heading back to “Playing†territory; a very well done medley indeed. All in all, it’s a lively and powerful dose of Dead from one of the band’s all-time favorite venues. So order your copy of the 3-CD Road Trips Vol. 4, No. 4 today! Needless to say, the sound is pristine, and mastered to HDCD specs. A colorful booklet with an essay and photos is part of the deal, too. But you already knew that.
