    Any list of iconic American phenomena of the 1960s – especially that proved to have lasting and global appeal – would need prominent places for both Star Trek and Bob Dylan. The Minnesota-born singer-songwriter is the sole person to have won Grammys, an Oscar, and a Nobel Prize. Both Dylan and Trek have straddled lines between entertainment, art and cultural commentary, and both have inspired legions of devoted fans (as well as legendary rifts between fans over “old” and “new” versions).

    Now, unlike fellow science-fiction show Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek has never built a plotline around a Dylan song. Nonetheless, there are still a number of surprising links between things Trek and Dylan. 

     

     

  8. The Devaluation of Music: It’s Worse Than You Think

    In their many (justified) laments about the trajectory of their profession in the digital age, songwriters and musicians regularly assert that music has been “devalued.” Over the years they’ve pointed at two outstanding culprits. First, it was music piracy and the futility of “competing with free.” More recently the focus has been on the seemingly miniscule payments songs generate when they’re streamed on services such as Spotify or Apple Music.

    These are serious issues, and many agree that the industry and lawmakers have a lot of work to do. But at least there is dialogue and progress being made toward new models for rights and royalties in the new music economy.

    Less obvious are a number of other forces and trends that have devalued music in a more pernicious way than the problems of hyper-supply and inter-industry jockeying. And by music I don’t mean the popular song formats that one sees on awards shows and hears on commercial radio. I mean music the sonic art form — imaginative, conceptual composition and improvisation rooted in harmonic and rhythmic ideas. In other words, music as it was defined and regarded four or five decades ago, when art music (incompletely but generally called “classical” and “jazz”) had a seat at the table.

    Circles Around the Sun kicked off a tour featuring Eric Krasno on guitar last night in Seattle. Wednesday’s show at The Crocodile was the band’s first headlining performance without founder Neal Casal.

    Casal, who died in August, expressed his wishes for Circles Around The Sun to continue without him. Krasno, bassist Dan Horne, keyboardist Adam MacDougall and drummer Mark Levy began last night’s concert with “On My Mind,” the song that opens the group’s 2018 studio album, Let It Wander. CATS then dug in on “Gilbert’s Groove” from their initial set of tunes composed as a soundtrack for setbreak at 2015’s Fare Thee Well – Celebrating 50 Years Of Grateful Dead concerts.

    The quartet went back to Let It Wander for an 18-minute “Halicarnassus” before performing the dreamy “Hallucinate A Solution” and downtempo “Immovable Object.” Last night’s penultimate song was “When I Was At Peace,” the evening’s lone number from the forthcoming Circles Around The Sun Meets Joe Russo EP. “When I Was At Peace” opens the four-track collaboration between drummer Joe Russo and CATS which comes out tomorrow via Royal Potato Family.

    Circles Around The Sun’s tour opener ended with an expansive rendition of Let It Wander “One For Chuck.” The tour continues tonight at Wonder Ballroom in Portland, Oregon.

    Jim Lauderdale Pens Letter To Robert Hunter, Late Grateful Dead Lyricist

    ROBERT HUNTER (1941 – 2019)

    Dear Robert,

    The sun is coming up and the light is slowly and softly coming through the hotel windows. It’s still quiet out. For the last two days I’ve been trying to find words and I haven’t been able to – and now more days have passed before I finish.

    So I thought I’d speak right to you. I don’t want to say goodbye, and I don’t know if I ever can. So I’m not going to do that now, but I want to tell you some things. And thank you.

     
     
     
     

    You affected me so deeply before we ever met, like you touched, influenced, and inspired so many, many people. Through your words, you drew us together and we experienced a shared knowing. A sense of community, celebration, new possibilities together, and inside ourselves. Getting to know you and work with you was like a dream and I still have a hard time realizing that it happened, and I could never thank you enough.

    You changed my life in so many ways. Being near you was incredible. I have always been so in awe of you that I was always shy and a little tongue tied, measuring my words as now. I want to say things right. It took a long time for me to relax more in your presence and not melt in awe as I pretended to be calm. You were so fascinating to be around and I hung on every word. You never ceased to amaze me with your brilliance. Inside of you was a force and spirit that was larger than life and beyond this world. A lion – strong, gentle, humble, fierce, protective of your family, determined, of great character, a genius who never stopped learning and always wanted to learn and discover more.

    I am so thankful to you for so many things – and to your wonderful family, for their kindness and grace. To see and feel the home you had with them. I want the world to know how much you loved them, and they loved you. How proud you were of them and they of you. It was always so touching to see that love between you. It was so beautiful to see that love grow even deeper as time went on. There was such an innocent and pure love emanating from you with them. And isn’t that kind of the ultimate? Isn’t that what this life is all about?

    You had experienced so much, and there was such a vast knowledge, such an immensity of spirit inside of you. You had seen so much lightning of thought, taking you from the street to the mountains and beyond the beyond, that it was all perhaps more than most physical bodies could handle. You had several close calls since I’ve known you and I think it was the love of the earthly angels of your family and your love for them that brought you back and kept you on this Earth longer. May those of us here lift your family up in their hearts and wish, hope, pray and send from inside comfort to them now and for the rest of time. I know you would want that from us.

    These last few years I sensed and saw some changes coming on, and also saw a deeper peace, contentment, and happiness in you. And I think it was the depth of the love you had for your family. It was a sight to behold. The last time I saw you, it was touching and inspiring to see you with your guitar as I walked up and for you to say you were practicing for hours a day, to play as good as you could because you really wanted to go out and tour. Maureen and Kate would be along to help you. You really wanted to play your songs again for people.

    Your eyes seemed to change through the years, or maybe it was me just noticing more. They were deeper and it was as if they were absorbing more and more life. In remembering conversations with you, there would be a pause, and in about the beat of an inhalation something wise would come out of you. There was a library stored inside from a photographic memory, thousands of songs you heard on radio, records and shows you could sing and recite, stories and experiences that entered through your eyes, ears and senses.

    When I think of those deep eyes, it hit me … You are the eyes of the world. You showed us a glimpse and helped us with the possibility of seeing beyond what we’ve seen. To wake up and find out with our eyes.

    You are still and always will be connected to us and we to you. We don’t want to say goodbye. Hopefully time will ease the sense of loss we feel now as we remember, honor, recall, cry, laugh, also celebrate you, your life and your gifts you shared with us. That thread you created will live on past all of us and keep extending to others not here yet. We love you Robert.

    Jim Lauderdale is a singer, songwriter and recording artist, and a dear friend and co-writer of Robert Hunter.

    spellin'

    Watched the webcast last night. Bittersweet. Learned a lot about Neal I didn't know, heard a bunch of great artists I wasn't familiar with. Hearing CATS play without Neal was different, kinda sad even, but still kicked. I love what they are doing though, I could listen to their music all day long.  Great to see Steve Earle there, was sorta surprised, and was expecting to see CRB, great little set by those dudes. Over-all a really enjoyable evening of stories and music. 5+ hours.
