Rock History 101: The Multiple Faces of "Stagger Lee"

Aug 29, 2011, 12:03pm Consequence Of Sound
Rock History 101: The Multiple Faces of "Stagger Lee" Trailing back to a previous List 'Em article regarding cover songs, everything from tributary motives to bowdlerization to pure subconscious innocence preserves a folksy tradition of recreating earlier work, thereby making it one's own. The cycle of covering older songs, for whatever the reason, has continued for decades. Most commonly seen in a nostalgic light, encompassing everything from pre-Billboard 45s and porch-played blues to '80s pop, a reboot or a re-imagining can be stripped of pretense to selfish cores, or even hailed as a classic so much that the original creator sees fit to redo his own take [...]

Sunday Mix Tape Number 212

Feb 14, 2011, 12:54am Swan Fungus
Good times last night at the Whitehorse. Mark's birthday party. I didn't get nearly as intoxicated as Friday night, but I still managed to have a good time. It just goes to show, kids: you don't need an excessive amount of alcohol to have a good time. Sure, it helps - and boy does it ever help - but you can't always rely on it. You're only supposed to rely on it when it's really imperative that you do so. You know, like a crutch. A social crutch. You wouldn't want to walk around in public [...]

I've been struggling as to where to go with The Gumshoe Grove. More coverage of current bands? More trips down Nostalgia Lane? More ... girls in bikinis toting machine guns?

Les Indispensables Blues - 1ère Partie

May 21, 2010, 6:34pm Le Choix de Mlle Eddie
Les Indispensables Blues - 1ère Partie Ce billet est la première partie d'une sorte de rétrospective du blues au travers de ses principaux protagonistes. J'étais partie pour ne faire qu'une playlist de 21 "indispensables", mais finalement j'ai décidé de prendre mon temps. Deux ou trois autres billets suivront celui-ci et j'espère ainsi vous montrer à quel point cette musique est passionnante. Je ne vais pas vous raconter toute l'histoire, sachez seulement que la musique blues est née à la fin du 19ème siècle dans le sud des Etats-Unis par la population afro-américaine. Les fameux "spirituals", les chants africains, les chants de travail sont les [...]

The Top Ten Movies To Watch On Friday The 13th

The Top Ten Movies To Watch On Friday The 13th In case you haven't yet read, my first blog non-Swan Fungus blog post ever was published yesterday on WFMU's Beware Of The Blog. If you want to jump directly to my post, you can click through this link: "How To Overcome Discouragement" . I look forward to writing new and silly entries for WFMU every other Thursday. They won't all be music-related, either, so you should bookmark their blog and keep an eye out for my retarded antics. Or if you're feeling lazy you can just wait around here, because I'm sure I'll always link to my posts as [...]

LA Weekly: Google's New Killer App? Why Are Music Bloggers' Posts Disappearing, and Who Is Deleting Them?

Feb 6, 2009, 4:37am The Passion of the Weiss
LA Weekly: Google's New Killer App? Why Are Music Bloggers' Posts Disappearing, and Who Is Deleting Them? Have you noticed your blog posts vanishing without any prior warning? Have you wondered about the dubious legality of the MP3's you dole out for free on your blog? Have eggs been frying on your kitchen counter whilst strange voices roared "Zuul" from the refrigerator? If so, you might want to peruse my piece in LA Weekly. It involves a little investigatory journalism, interviews from Google execs, the RIAA, the Web Sheriff, half the blogosphere, and bad MGMT and Metallica jokes galore. If you're still looking for worthy reasons to incinerate time this Friday, might I also recommend [...]

I'm Sitting Here Wondering, Would a Matchbox Hold my Clothes?

Dec 21, 2008, 12:00am She's Making Whoopee in Hell Tonight...
I'm Sitting Here Wondering, Would a Matchbox Hold my Clothes? I've been on a bit of a Carl Perkins kick the last few months. I mention this now because 'tis the season on music blogs across the interwebs to write one (or both) of the two classic end-of-year posts: the "year in review" best albums/single post, and the Chrismas post. We'll be doing a Christmas post or two, but I'm not prepared to sum up the year in music. There are several reasons for this. First, I was overseas until the middle of July, which provides me with a pretty ironclad alibi for having missed [...]

B.B. King knows Blues

Sep 22, 2008, 6:08am Mainstream Isnt So Bad...Is It
B.B. King knows Blues When one thinks of B.B. King , it's hard to imagine that there were any blues artists that were around before he was for him to list as influences. B.B. King should be on hundreds of lists AS an influence! I mean, the guy's been making music for literally well over half a century, and he's still going strong. With his latest release, One Kind Favor , King covers twelve songs from other blues artists who influenced him in his early days, including Blind Lemon Jefferson, T-Bone Walker, Lonnie Johnson, Big Bill Broonzy, John Lee Hooker , [...]

SUNDAY MIXTAPE - NUMBER 106 Hey kids. Today was a long one. Got to work a half-hour before opening to prepare for a big storewide sale, and just walked into Nicci's place five minutes ago. Some of the discounts were larger than my normal employee discount, so I bought a handful of records that I'd been holding onto for a few weeks. Superfuzz Bigmuff , a Steve Reich record, the first Saints album ( I'm Stranded ), and a bunch of seven-inch records (Big Black's Il Duce , Minutemen's Paranoid Time , two Flying Saucer attack 7"s and a Tortoise 7").
