Pollack's site, click here to read all the musical (and other) information you would ever want to know about Hey Jude. The Contestants: Leading off this week we've got The Derek [...]

Nick Cave put his own spin on the oft recorded story about Lee "Stag Lee" Shelton, and called his take "Stagger Lee", on the classic 1996 album Murder Ballads . I say "his take" because other recordings have various versions of the name (and details) likely due to the story spreading across the US orally in the late 1800's (Stagolee, Stack O' Lee, Stackerlee, Stackoo Lee, Stack O' Dollars, etc. are some of the examples used by artists over the years). After listening to quite a few versions of this story in song, [...]

The Heptones' Leroy Sibbles touched more than the majority of Studio One's hit songs, whether in his own band or as the obfuscated group of studio musicians known variously as Sound Dimension or the Soul Investigators or as the man who played the bass on classics by the Abyssinians or Dennis Brown. He will be leading the Lions at Dub Club tonight. This interview by Chris Ziegler.
This weekend the 54th Eurovision Song Contest ( Concours Eurovision de la Chanson ) takes place in Moscow, Russia ( la Russie ). Ireland ( l'Irlande ) is one of 42 countries that will compete in this year's competition. It has always been more about style over substance and has become, in recent years, more about politics than entertainment. The rules of the competition state that each act can have no more than six members on stage during their performance. That's one trophy that Manchester United won't win this year. C'est ci bon ! The first nine [...]

The life history of a parasite seems simple enough: get inside host, reproduce, get inside new host, repeat. Sometimes simple strategies are effective. The virus for the common cold causes its host to cough and project new viruses into the environment. Other strategies add a level of complexity with an intermediary host. The beef tapeworm begins in a cow, but spends its reproductive life in a mammal that has eaten infected beef. Others go a step further and employ mind control. There are examples of mind-controlling parasites from all over the animal kingdom, [...]

"It was Bob Marley who made reggae into an international phenomenon. In the wake of his success in the 1970s came a host of other names, and it wasn't long before reggae became an established genre of music. But reggae was simply the growth, the development, of what had been happening in Jamaican music.Beginning with ska, and then rock steady, the loudest island in the world had declared its real musical independence, and had already made an imprint on the world, albeit a small one." Rest the rest here . [...]
