I wasn't sure where to post this, so here it is.
Great video from a recent Country Music Hallof Fame ceremony where a long lost suit that was worn by Chris Ethridge, from the Flying Burrito Brothers, was added to a display at the Hall. I've long thought that Chris co-wrote the Burritos best song, Hot Burrito #1, and he co-wrote one of Gram's best solo songs, She. He played on lots of cool albums (Ry Cooder, Randy Newman, etc) and he was Willie Nelson's bass player for a long time. I never hear the guy get any recognition though so it's awesome to see the Hall of Fame do this.
Chris was from Meridian, Mississippi and it was a nice touch to have Meridian natives Pat Sansone from Wilco and drummer Adam Box from Brothers Osborne playing at the ceremony. Pound for pound, I think Meridian may have produced more great musicians than any other town.
And my wife was born there.

Any and everyone after the great Jimmie Rodgers is just gravy

Britt Daniel of Spoon looks like Nick Lowe, Steve Forbert, & a young Shane MacGowan had a love child

From certain angles there’s some Gary Busey in there as well

A greatly slimmed down (read: layoffs) Pitchfork is now a part of GQ Magazine.

What's next? Montovani plays The Sex Pistols?

Not sure where this should go so I guess that means it goes here.

Excellent column in the WaPo today about the joys of music, its place in our lives and its ability to link families and generations.
