I guess that's why Bobby had his lights off, Tear-assing threw the back part of town and those deser...

Re: What's your favorite song right NOW?

My boy and I have been listening to this on the way to his football games. It's a feel good song, love the Mr. Big Stuff sample. A bit cheesy but it gets a 7yo happy in the early am and that's all good.

Gimme Shelter. It's proof positive of what scared the shit out of people about rock and roll. Impending doom.

The Late Great Townes Van Zandt

Great article in a great series from the AV Club: A.V. Club head writer and hip-hop specialist Nathan Rabin recently decided to spend a year or two immersing himself in the canon of country music, a genre he knew little about, but was keen to explore. The result: “Nashville Or Bust,” a series of ess...

Noisy duos are good stuff. Been enjoying Sleigh Bells too, less blues, more beats, less musical, but rediculously loud.

There is no better songwriter than James McMurtry. McMurtry is the shit. Ruby & Carlos, Choctaw Bingo and Levelland (just to name a few) are among the best songs, wood for word, ever written. Upper, upper echelon. You state there is no better, and that's true. He's in the Dylan, Lennon, Cooley,...

Re: DBT in Rock History

For all intents and purposes DBT is roaming the halls of fame. Recording With Bettye Lavette and Booker T. Selling out halls. Making their own music on their own terms. They were invited to the Midnight Ramble. So far as I'm concerned they were enshrined in that barn. You dont get invited to play wi...
