This whole discussion reminds me of an argument I once had about Miles Davis having a keyboard onstage in the 70's and 80s. It would just sit there and once in a while when he wasn't soloing (or sometimes even when he was) he would wander over to it…

I love these docs, my favorite is the Steely Dan "Aja" episode. The part where they isolated Michael McDonald's vocals on "Peg" was especially mind blowing, those tighly stacked harmonies sounded like some kind of alien communication from outer spac…

I agree with your original point Harv, but at this point the internet is the way most young people experience and learn about music. It doesn't matter if us older heads think it's inferior or not, the cat is out of the bag. If you are 18 and learnin…

One of those albums that I am just thankful was created at all. Can you imagine a world without Black Sabbath, how different would the sound of heavy rock have been? Sends shudders down one's spine. I had never heard the original version of …

This is awesome, too bad it never aired:

Unfadeable. Check the original review in The Source.

I think the dismissal and appropriation of "old" styles and moving on to the next shit is something that has always happened across black music. If you go to a current reggae event you aren't going to be hearing a lot of original Studio One jams bei…

iPod woke up in a punk rock mood today.

Put the iPod on shuffle for the walk to the bus, first song up was:

I have played guitar since I was 15. I still play in a hardcore punk band, we played two shows this weekend. Playing music is loads of fun, even if it's disconcerting sometimes playing shows with people less than half my age.

Living in Bushwick the spring that this LP dropped, man... it was the soundtrack to the everything we did. Mass Appeal is the perfect distillation of everything great about Gangstarr. And yet this is only my 3rd favorite of their LP's!

I have never been a fan of The Boss, but I endured extended exposure to him and his fans because I used to studio manage for a photographer who was intimately involved with Bruce back in the late 70's. It gave me a real look in at what it is his fan…

That whole 30 for 30 series was great, I'm glad they are continuing to make more of these. "Without Bias" is especially moving. And "Winning Time" made me wish I could go back to the 90's again.

That was amazing, thanks for sharing.

Terrible list.

Put me in the camp of people who prefer "Axis" (or "Band Of Gypsies") more, bu there are a few of my favorite Jimi performances on this one. I think "House Burning Down" is one of the most underrated tracks in his whole discography, some really inte…

I agree, just take the damn seat. None of this one day on, one day off stuff. Karma isn't even involved here, you aren't doing anything malicious and the other guy isn't suffering, he just has to sit in a slightly inferior seat. Boo Hoo.

As a Jets fan I must say: This is some bullshit.

Fuck him. As long as it's not a handicapped seat and he's not disabled he has no more right to it than you do.

Some undeniable classics on there, but I rarely make it thru the whole LP. Maybe it would help if I smoked weed? Dah Shinin' is a better LP with slightly inferior singles.

You gotta have some of the Gene Vincent stuff with Cliff Gallup on guitar as well IMO. Gallup and James Burton pretty much invented rockabilly guitar.
