UncategorizedPosted on September 14, 2006May 12, 2022

Prior to the show, you could just feel the anticipation in the room....the Joo's were actually here in Los Angeles playing the Henry Fonda Music Box. Rumors were flying around that Steve Malkmus would make a cameo, but it didn't happen. No matter, D.C. Berman and crew more than held their own playing fan favorites spanning their career trajectory. Notorious for not touring, Berman . . .

Blonde On Blonde Outtakes :: Bob Dylan

UncategorizedPosted on September 10, 2006June 1, 2012

Modern Times has led me to rummaging through a lot of obscure Dylan stuff that I had been neglecting for some time. This thin wild mercury music is just too good not to share with you other Dylan freaks out there. Here is part one of two of the collection.

Serge Gainsbourg :: Revisited

UncategorizedPosted on September 8, 2006

My introduction and love of sixties French Pop began a few years ago when a friend turned me on to the decadent sounds of Jacques Dutronc. His frenetic pop music followed me via iPod on a twelve day honeymoon trek through Greece and the outlying coastal islands, thus becoming the de facto soundtrack to the trip. Upon my return to the states I was hooked and needed a fix . . .

Bob Dylan :: Modern Times

UncategorizedPosted on September 5, 2006May 24, 2022

Dylan's latest album Modern Times was released a week ago today, and after nearly a week to digest I can honestly say I am enjoying the hell out of it. I tend to approach albums by rock & roll's "elder statesmen" with a wee bit of trepidation as you have to wonder just how many brilliant nuggets one artist can churn out after so many years. Well, any fears I held vanished after listening to the second track, the seven minute-plus . . .
