Dwight Yoakam :: The Aquarium Drunkard Interview

Dwight Yoakam The AD InterviewPosted on July 28, 2015June 2, 2022

Dwight Yoakam’s been playing country so long he qualifies as a statesman, but Second Hand Heart, his fourteenth album, doesn’t sound like he’s settling into a mid-career lull. With jangly guitars, bracing tempos, and rowdy vocals, Yoakam's songs are as wild as they were in 1986, when he released his debut Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Etc. The record follows 3 Pears, his 2012 album produced with Beck, and more than that record echoes the cowpunk of his . . .

Eleventh Dream Day :: Works For Tomorrow

Eleventh Dream DayPosted on July 27, 2015September 14, 2015

Not many bands stick it out for three decades -- and even those who do usually end up as shadows of their former selves. Not so with Eleventh Dream Day. The action-packed Works For Tomorrow isn't just one of the veteran Chicago group's best efforts, it's also one of the best guitar records in recent memory, as Rick Rizzo and James Elkington find the sweet spot between Television's precise/pristine interplay and Crazy Horse's wild abandon.

Gems From The Jazz Vault :: Miles Davis, Wes Montgomery & Duke Ellington

Miles DavisPosted on July 24, 2015June 8, 2022

Some recent, recommended archival releases of (mostly) unreleased material from some jazz giants.

It'd take a whole lot more than four discs to sum up what Miles Davis was up to onstage from 1955-1975. But the trumpeter's latest Bootleg Series manages to give a solid overview, collecting performances given under the auspices of the Newport Jazz Festival (some of which take place at the actual . . .

Shirley Collins Tributes :: Emily Sundblad & Matt Sweeney

Shirley CollinsPosted on July 23, 2015July 23, 2015

Though she retired from regular public performance decades ago, Shirley Collins' influence on today's musical landscape seems to grow with every year. That's a very good thing. Her classic LPs, either alone, or with Davy Graham, her sister Dolly, and Ashley Hutchings, among others, are master classes in traditional English folk forms (with plenty of trips into other folk forms as well). They're also just fantastic records, with Collins' unmistakeable vocals and pristine delivery bringing age-old songs to miraculous life. She's one of our great voices.
That voice and legacy is paid well-deserved tribute . . .

Ohioan

OhioanPosted on July 22, 2015July 22, 2015

The music of Tucson’s Ohioan, led by songwriter O Ryne Warner, is about many things, but chiefly, it is music about the concept of “place.”

“From Roscoe Holcomb and the ‘mountain minor’ players to the Berber banjoists of Marrakech, Tinariwen's Tuareg guitar tradition, and the electric reverberation of country music throughout the Sonoran desert: we are bringing these far-flung influences together to reconcile where we come from, where are, and where we're headed,” Warner writes of his upcoming album, Empty/Every MT, out early next year via Gold Robot Records . . .

Sam Dees :: Soul Sister (1969)

Sam DeesPosted on July 22, 2015

Dig that ominous, hypnotic, and downright menacing groove. When Sam’s vocal begins, it’s all over.

From Birmingham, AL, Sam Dees journeyed to Nashville as a young man to begin recording in the late '60s. Even though records such as this and the mighty "Lonely For You Baby" are the type of 45s that make soul collectors weak in the knees, these devastating records sold next to nothing upon their initial release. However, considering how whipped my personal copies of these records are, they were undoubtedly loved and partied with by their former owners. Fortunately, Sam Dees saw success . . .

Elyse Weinberg :: Greasepaint Smile

Elyse WeinbergPosted on July 21, 2015July 20, 2015

Elyse Weinberg is a longtime favorite of Aquarium Drunkard, whose husky voice was introduced to many via folk rockers Vetiver. In 2001, her long lost debut, 1968’s Elyse was reissued by Orange Twin Records, a swooning, mystic effort bolstered considerably by bonus track “Houses,” a laidback but insistent groover featuring searing lead guitar by Neil Young. Now, thanks to Numero Group . . .

The Raiders :: Just Seventeen (1970)

The RaidersPosted on July 20, 2015July 20, 2015

Between 1965 and '67 Seattle’s Paul Revere & The Raiders were a non-stop hit machine...but by 1970 they were viewed as passé bubblegum by the rock cognoscenti and had been relatively hitless for three years. While the group may have been overexposed (thanks to the several daily afternoon TV shows that they hosted), they had far too much substance and talent to completely fade away into obscurity. The band - effectively led by singer Mark Lindsay at this point - tried in vain to reinvent themselves as hip ’n’ heavy, going so far as to promote their 1969 . . .
