I did a little playlist shuffle on January 1st to get a prediction of how 2012 is gonna be. A musical version of Tarot cards, if you will. 1. Athenaeum - Flat Tire 2. Bare, Jr. - You Blew Me Off 3. Cross Canadian Ragweed - Burn Like the Sun (Hmmm, seems like its going to be a rough start in the romance area) 4. [...]
The Explorers Club unveil the lead single off their upcoming full-length Grand Hotel, which already sounds like one of 2012's best. Stream it inside
By Davis McGraw I suck at keeping up with new releases, but I'm a sucker for show & tell. Here are five records that I heard in 2011 and deserve a good listen. 5. Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes: Havin' A Party With Southside Johnny (1979) [Goodwill in Laconia, August] Johnny found his way into my collection near the end of a brief serendipitous streak, and for that I thank him. Much like the Boss, these boardwalk boys know their escapism back & forth. 4. Ry Cooder: Paris, Texas (1985) [Burlington Records, September] I remember watching Paris, Texas for [...]

Por Nicolás Miranda Buenos Aires puede dormir tranquila desde el martes 13 de diciembre a la noche. Una leyenda más ha cancelado su deuda con la ciudad, ofreciendo un recital notable que permanecerá en la memoria de sus admiradores. El guitarrista, cantante y miembro fundador de The Byrds , Roger McGuinn , pasó por la ciudad para recordarnos porqué sus canciones fueron -son- necesarias y cómo debe hacerse para merecer un lugar entre los trovadores legendarios del folk estadounidense. En un Coliseo [...]
CSN's debut album sounds better than ever on this 24K+ Gold CD Edition.
Protest movements often result in music that is repetitive and uninspiring, if only for the small number of widely identifiable protest songs. You shouldn't be forced to listen to "The Times They Are a-Changin'" twenty times per day. Levine, who worked at Zuccotti Park's info desk,compiles a dozen songs that better fit this movement, and many others as well
Around a month ago, I was told The Explorers Club would be releasing their first new material in over four years. Freedom Wind, their 2008 debut, has been a personal favorite of mine since its release, and I assumed the band had split after years of inactivity. So when frontman Jason Brewer e-mailed me last

Steve Marcus - Eight Miles High It DOESN'T get better than that video below, and maybe it is cruel of me to compare it but Steve Marcus's tenor sax jam of Eight Miles High is pretty close - at least 7 1/4 Miles High.

Like all great journeys, this one too must come to an end. And by Sunday evening, as promised, no less! Just by virtue of how I ended up organizing this playlist, this part ended up being very, shall we say, "classic rock" heavy, so if that's not your thing, this probably won't be your favorite part of the playlist (in which case see links at the bottom for parts 1-3!), but I wouldn't steer you wrong, these are definitely choice cuts! Neon Indian: Deadbeat Summer ( Psychic Chasms ) [...]
Many of us have a sweet spot for The Beach Boys, or most Brian Wilson recordings for that matter. While their early – and generally most popular – hits are not to be overlooked, the greatness of the group fully emerged with the 1965 release of Today!. This classic marks the beautiful crevice between early [...]
We review William Shatner's Space-themed Covers Album 'Seeking Major Tom'
Imagine Ian Curtis singing 'Near Wild Heaven' by R.E.M. That's pretty cool, right? 'Werefolf' is one of two stadium sized and uplifting yet dark country pop songs, downloadable from Daddy Lion's debut EP 'Habitat' released later this year. It has the wide open ethereal space of the early nineties but with modern production and some [...]

"Wasn't Born To Follow" is found, among other places, on the seriously excellent album The Notorious Byrd Brothers .

The music and mythology of a golden era in the culture of California is explored in this feature-length documentary. At the start of the 1960s Los Angeles was a kooky backwater, barely visible on the musical map. By the end of the 1970s it was the artistic and industrial hub of the American music industry. This film explores how the socially-conscious folk rock of young hippies with acoustic guitars was transformed into the coked-out stadium excesses of the late 70s, and the biggest-selling album of all time. Alongside extensive and never before seen archive [...]

The Alabama-born Pierces own a UK top 5 and Coldplay dude-produced album, You & I . Wild. The latest release from that LP is the dark, swirling "Kissing You Goodbye". The track, reminiscent of 60's vocal bands like The Byrds, The Hollies, and The Mamas & The Papas, is great and, if you're unfamiliar (American. [We had barely heard of them too.]), should serve as an excellent introduction to the band. The Pierces ( Official ) ( Facebook ) Rating 8.2
