I was at party New Years Eve and telling a guy that they were playing a Dead show from New Year's Eve on the radio that night - 1977 I believe. He started telling me about a New years Eve show that was simulcast at the time where Kesey is trippin' balls and misunderstands that these paper mache head...

I don't know myself or Bob Dylan's catalogue well enough to know why but I know this song. It's familiar to me, I know the melody and I have an mp3 of the recording but I don't know how I acquired it. Steven Hyden is right - it's brilliant.

I now see it was released in 1985 on the box set Biograph.

They do not hand out Grammy nominations. tell him folks on the internetz say congratulations.

Nice songwriting and wonderful harmonies on the EP. I like it better than Ear Candy.

This makes my heart happy.

In The Garden is an absolutely amazing song.

How in the fuck did Bruce Springsteen rip Van Morrison off?

Enjoyed the read. Thanks for posting.

Can't recommend it at all. Too much written about Rick Hall, The ABB and Skynyrd and not enough written specifically about The Truckers in general or the album in particular. The author didn't even interview anyone in the band. I'd say if you post on this board that you already know more about this ...

i had the good fortune to meet Lou on the New York tour. he actually bummed a cig from me quietly telling me that his wife (would be Sylvia) was making him smoke "these damned light things". i was like "here Lou, take the pack". 1 of the highlights of my 25 years in the music biz. :D :mrgreen: :mrg...

Thank you pearlbeer. That was amazing. "Post Malone took the stage to deafening cheers, scorching jet flames and billowing clouds of smoke like a Groupon version of a Kiss concert from 1975." "His songs completely lack volatility and swing, leaving him as a little boy trying on oversized sequin suit...

And the barrel picture is back! (at least on the screen I'm looking on this morning.)

Thanks for the heads up dm. Ordering mine.

Love his voice and he absolutely wrote some killer love songs.

I'm kinda crushed and the reaction from the internet is rather silent. Strange (to me).

Leonardo DiCaprio is going to play Sam Phillips!? As hard as I try, I can't imagine that.

The difference between 75 year old Mick Jagger and 82 year old Jerry Lee is shocking.

That warrants a Holy Shit from me.

Your equation is incomplete. Other relevant variables to be plugged into the formula are sex and drugs.

In a van?

Never been able to catch a Cooley solo show either. Looking forward to it.

It's like winning the fucking fan lottery! And on a weekend? In a small venue like The Southern? It's a good time to be you brother.

Don't know about y'all but I've never had a member of The Replacements in my foyer before.

Apparently this rock 'n roll shit ain't as glamorous as it seems.

^^^ Love this.

Well damn. He was the Strat guy in the band while the other dudes played Gibsons I think.

Also it seems like he was the only guy in the band who was really honest about St. Ronnie.

Patterson does as good a job as anyone can trying to explain the un-explainable about how we feel about Aretha Franklin's passing. "It’s the nature of this particular art form that the songs we love become such personal parts of the fabric of our lives that there’s no separating our own lives from m...

If you think your heart can handle it, seek out her performance of Natural Woman at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors of Carole King.

Always wanted to hear the band play The Southern Thing. They played it in Richmond when I was outside on a smoke break. Angry. Very angry. Finally caught it. What a relief! Chased Steve McQueen for a long time. I mentioned how I'd never heard it before in a thread the day before the Charlottesville ...

My favorite part of that is the "unplugged" part where the Big E plays with the ol' guys in his original bad Scotty Moore and DJ Fontana.

^^^ Very fuckin' cool Pearl.

Agree with the earlier post. It's poetic license baby.

Uhh, holy shit!

Adam's House Cat will perform live for the first time in 27 years, opening for the Drive-By Truckers in Knoxville, TN on September 27, and Atlanta, GA on September 28 and 29.

Congrats to Bubba on the shout out. Say what you want but that is cool as shit!

TTB with Patterson doing Let Me Roll It. For Beatle Paul!
