R.I.P. Another fantastic musician lost this year.

In car: Luscious Jackson- Natural Ingredients
at home: Grateful Dead Movie Soundtrack- Scarlet

I heard about this a short while ago. Wish he would be in it if they do. Always liked him in the band- a steady eddie if you will. Maybe they get Tony Leone who was the CRB drummer. Who does keys would be interesting...

Hey, thanks for that write-up! I don't recall ever hearing about these shows.

...yeah, that just about says it all.

I'd probably feel angry and sad after reading that just like you. The Crowes have had moments of pure rockin' sickness and then they just frustrate you with the b.s. I will check this book out though... Speaking of Gorman, I see he's revived Trigger Hippy. New tracks are on Spotify and don't sound h...

Surviving members of CRB (incl. MacDougall) reunited to play at a Neal Casal tribute/benefit at the Capitol Theater Wed. They did Forever Young, Loving Cup, Star or Stone, A Smiling Epitaph, and Mandolin Wind. Greg Loiacono filled in on guitar.

Keep us posted about the book. Saw that it was coming out a coupla months ago and figure this could be an interesting read.

This. ...well at least after only 1 listen. Just picked it up today. Total dance party. So far, meh. Maybe that'll change...

Darius Rucker did NOT help matters either. That song blows.

...this IS sad. Got Brokedown 7/9/89 from Giants Stadium box playing as soon as I found out. One of the best songwriters ever.

Is this the same Brant Bjork that was in Kyuss?

Their early 80's records were my childhood.

None of my top 4 are in final top 4 tabulated results but damn if that isn't one kick-ass top 4.

Another brain buster. Easiest way to do this is off the top of my head quickly:

Sinkhole
Why Henry Drinks
Aftermath USA
Two Daughters and a Beautiful Wife

*Heathens can easily sub for any of the above

Women Without Whiskey
Love Like This
A Ghost to Most
Carl Perkins' Cadillac

Sooooooo tough!

Do you find them much, these, stolen cars?

Younger Cop:
Sometimes. Wouldn't hold out much hope for the tape deck though.

Older Cop:
Or the Creedence.

nice

Indeed, sad news. Constantly discovering Meters stuff. Funkify your Life!

Recommended viewing: "The Quiet One" - new Bill Wyman documentary Just saw this the other night and really think not just Stones fans, but music lovers would really like this. Wyman opened up his personal archives some years ago and the doc. uses music, photos, etc. along with Wyman's narration to g...

Congratulations Blues! Totally deserved the Cup. Binnington- wow, what a year! This guy came out of nowhere! Also like how Phish covered Laura Branigan's Gloria (Blues rally song) at their tour stop in STL last night.

Avoiding music is pretty easy these days. People lock into the specific genre they like on Spotify or Pandora and tune everything else out.

What Zip said. Not a peep out of anybody at work Friday re: Dr. John. Sigh...

R.I.P.
NP: Locked Down

Well the four teams are in. Nice to see a great new mix and sure to be some nice battles. Pulling for a Canes/Blues Stanley Cup. Canes/Blues as well. Have a feeling it will end up being Bruins/Sharks though. Canes have no goaltending and the B's top line has caught fire. Sharks will likely have Pav...

Totally agree with Iowan.

This may be bad intel but I heard via social media that the band broke up. Wouldn't be surprised. MacDougall was the backbone of that band. Respectfully disagree on that one: 100% Neal. I dug Adam’s playing with the Crowes but his over-reliance on the synth in the CRB makes me cringe Sierra Nevada ...

New Black Keys "Let it Rock" out at the end of June. Colored vinyl preordered. The Black Keys are on my "music probation" list. Their last couple of albums have been on a downward trajectory (IMO) and they need to earn me back. That said, I hope they do, because they've made some great music Have e...

It was just announced that keyboardist Adam MacDougall has left the CRB. Their new album "Servants of the Sun" comes out June 14. No word on a replacement. He has also departed C R's solo project As the Crow Flies.

Definitely want Columbus out of the East (love Torts as a coach) and the Blues out of the West. This matchup of course would be a nightmare for the NHL as far as tv, etc goes.
