Surprise!: The Stranger

Surprise!: The Stranger Bobby Bare: The Stranger [ purchase (CD only)] I have no idea how "The Stranger" came to be written (by Shel Silverstein), recorded (by Bobby Bare) or released by RCA Victor, the same label that brought us Elvis, Sgt. Barry Sadler and the soundtrack to The Sound of Music. It is the weirdest song Bobby Bare ever recorded. And that's saying something, because he recorded a lot of weird songs. "Drop Kick Me Jesus Through the Goalposts of Life." "Bathroom Tissue Paper Letter," about a [...]

Adding Up The Numbers

Adding Up The Numbers I was doing a quick bit of math with the calculator app on my tablet, and it got me to thinking about how far we've come since I was first exposed to a calculator more than forty years ago. I'm not counting slide rules (which I covered in an earlier post ) but rather the first time I was trained in the use of a full-fledged gizmo. When I began working at my new job in a business office, I was immediately exposed to three generations of calculating machines. The oldest [...]

A History of Country Vol. 13: 1972-74

A History of Country Vol. 13: 1972-74 The traditional country stars — Conway Twitty, George Jones, Tammy Wynette Charlie Rich, Dolly Parton, Charley Pride — were still selling many records in the 1970s, and periodically crossed over to the pop charts. Singers like Donna Fargo evoked the good old days with happy songs like The Happiest Girl In The Whole USA. These were still the Opry years — in fact, in 1972 the Grand Ole Opry opened a theme park called Opryland, and wo years later moved out of its long-time home, the Ryman Theatre, to Opryland. But the Nashville scene no longer monopolised country, [...]

An All American Trilogy... Boy

An All American Trilogy... Boy "Uncle Sam needs you, Boy I'm a gonna cut your hair off Take this rifle, Kid Gimme that gui-tar Yea-ah..." Today, on the 4th of July, when we Americans do what we do to celebrate the signing of the Declaration of Independence (eat meat, drink beer, and blow shit up), let us pause and reflect on the glory that is "The All American Boy." In 1958, when Bobby Bare was about be inducted into the Army and [...]

Johnny Cash and Bobby Bare cover Shel Silverstein [Under the Covers]

Johnny Cash and Bobby Bare cover Shel Silverstein [Under the Covers] I have very fond memories of Shel Silverstein in my early years. I remember my parents reading me poems from Where The Sidewalk Ends and A Light In The Attic before I could read and I recall pouring over these pages as I learned to read. Some of my earliest memories. What many don't know is that, in addition to a poet and children's book author, this Renaissance Man named Shel Silverstein was a composer, illustrator, and singer-songwriter. It's been awhile since we've done an "Under the Covers" on HearYa, but Silverstein has been [...]

Music Review: Various Artists - I Love: Tom T. Hall's Songs of Fox Hollow

Little baby ducks, old pick-up trucks, and a delightful tribute to a timeless album.

State Songs #23: Michigan

State Songs #23: Michigan You thought I'd given up? I'm making no promises as to when this journey will end but, at last, I'm back on my musical journey around the United States . Before the tunes, one great piece of trivia about the Great Lake State. Did you know that Michigan is home to the self-proclaimed "magic capital of the world"? That's Colon, Michigan , the world's largest manufacturer of magic supplies. Me neither. Right, let's get to it. MP3: Sufjan Stevens - Say Yes! to M!ch!gan! [...]

Video: LWMB Acoustic Session + Interview with Bobby Bare Jr.

Video: LWMB Acoustic Session + Interview with Bobby Bare Jr. Bobby Bare Jr. has been rocking the music scene from a very young age. When he was six, he was nominated for a Grammy for a duet with his dad on a song written by Shel Silverstein called "Daddy What If." They lost to the Pointer Sisters, but that didn't get Bobby Jr. down. He's had a prolific solo career since the late '90s, and his fans are true and steadfast. Bobby's now on tour supporting his latest record, A Storm, A Tree, My Mother's Head , and took some time to play us a few songs [...]

First Set of KEXP MFNW Podcasts are Live

First Set of KEXP MFNW Podcasts are Live Remember yesterday, when you worked through rad sets from Laura Veirs, Phantogram and the Cave Singers? That totally sucked, right?

We listened yesterday, though, and it sounded pretty rockin'. What are you missing RIGHT NOW, you ask? Well, you missed Blue Giant already. Next, you're going to miss Bobby Bare Jr. (12:30 pm), the Tallest Man on Earth (2:30 pm) and [...]

In Memoriam – July 2010

The grim reaper evidently is a big football fan, stepping up his reaping only after the World Cup concluded (taking, however, the great South African saxophonist Robbie Jansen before its conclusion), but then with a vengeance. The most notable musician this month may be Harvey Fuqua, whose impact on music was mostly behind the scenes. Fittingly, Marvin Gaye on the last track of his last album paid tribute to his mentor. Just a short while after Big Star's Alex Chilton, Andy Hummel died. A couple of session musicians who played on rock classics passed on. I usually don't [...]
