Jerry McGill

Jerry McGill In the mid‑seventies, when he was red‑hot, Waylon played Memphis, and his one‑time rhythm guitar player and road manager, Curtis Buck, a/k/a Jerry McGill, came to the show in drag. McGill, who had a Memphis rock and roll band in the fifties and recorded for Sun Records, was eluding prosecution for various federal crimes. He had developed a problem traveling with Waylon when they put the metal detectors in airports. But there had been times when McGill's guns—he normally carried three, counting the one in his girlfriend's purse—had come in handy, like the time the cop had McGill's boss under [...]

You don't have dope shit like this too go to, and the only way you could learn how to dance was watching the harlem shake on your cousins tape he recorded off 106th and park.

Have You See My Rooster....Memphis Minnie
Yesterday I posted a Memphis Minnie video clip and it dawned on me that I have not posted anything about her, or any other of my favorite female blues musicians, in a while. A couple of years to be exact, in the case of Memphis Minnie. Well I thought, I better do something about that. Click here for Memphis Minnie @ Amazon.com The below videos are so cool [...]

The Sunday Shuffle

Decided to auto-post this since i'm currently out of town. Kind of nice to get out of Auburn to avoid the onslaught of college football. I'm not much of a hardcore fan, but I do support the team here of course. Not much else to say other than that, so i'll just post this week's edition of The Sunday Shuffle and get out of here. I hope everyone enjoys their extended labor day weekend! "If You Ever Need a Stranger (to Sing at Your Wedding)" | Jens Lekman [...]

Side Project Friday

Lately I've been listening to Memphis and The Whitest Boy Alive, side projects of a couple of my favorite bands, Stars and Kings of Convenience respectively. Torq (Stars) and Erlend Øye (KoC) both have distinctive voices that I really enjoy...they're definitely in my favorite male singers pile. Here's a couple of songs from A Little Place in the Wilderness . Memphis - Incredibly Drunk On Whiskey Memphis - I'll Do Whatever You Want Leah and I were shopping in the SCAD store [...]

Memphis Series: Shawn Lane

Memphis Series: Shawn Lane The second in a series on Memphis music, where Don shares some love for music from his hometown. I met Shawn Lane a couple of years before his untimely death. Sandip Burman was passing through on a university tour. Frank Schaffer, U of M faculty extraordinaire, asked if it was cool for Sandip to crash at the house where I was living. Shawn called round for a session the first night. It was profound. The history on him is that Shawn was from Memphis and started out playing [...]

Memphis Series: Isaac Hayes

Memphis Series: Isaac Hayes In the first of a regular series of guest blogs, Don will be sharing some love for music from his hometown of Memphis. Take it away Don. Nine times out of ten, the first reaction I get from people when I tell them I'm from Memphis is Elvis related. It's probably the same with most Irish people and Bono. In a bid to give props to the Memphis musicians that deserve more recognition, and who I'd rather be associated with my hometown, here is the first in the series of guest blog [...]

The Daily Graboid | 06/20/07

This week's releases features two highly anticipated albums with Icky Thump by The White Stripes and The Fragile Army by the Polyphonic Spree . I've only listened to both sparingly, so I don't really have anything to say about either. Outside of those two obvious releases, there are a few that I think everyone should really check out starting with Teardrop Sweetheart by Misha and We Can Create by Maps . They're both really excellent albums, with each having their own unique [...]

Interlude: Reunion

It's been too long. Although I've returned to the city a couple times since school ended, it's been a long three weeks since I caught a show there. In the time, things have unfortunately slowed down here, and while it's inevitable that I'll pick up something new and interesting in album form regardless of my location, nothing really beats being there. This set was part of the Upper North Side Canadian Music Series, and I was reminded once again how incredibly likable Torquil and, by arbitrary extension, the entire Great White [...]

Help Me To Make It Clear What We're Doing Here

Help Me To Make It Clear What We're Doing Here Claude Cahun - What Do You Want From Me? (1928) Are you reading this? I've been sitting here thinking of you for a while now. I've written several drafts that I concluded you wouldn't have liked. I'm not sure you realize how strange it is to sit here and rearrange pixels with hopes of reaching you through your retinas. Maybe you do, but I don't know you well enough to tell. It would be nice to hear from you and to learn a few of your [...]

Out WithThe Old, In With The New

Out WithThe Old, In With The New Mayne Island, or thereabouts, 30 Dec 2006 It's a bit odd, really. I've been finding it rather difficult to get this year going. No particular reason springs to mind, but it does seem to be taking several attempts to get it's motor started. Of late it's rather like the Squealing Pigmobile, which has been requiring several turns of the ignition to wake up on our sub-zero mornings. Well, we'll keep at it and hope to find our stride soon. I hope you all had the holiday season you wished for. Ours was [...]

Jonesing for Some New Broken Social Scene But This Will Have to Do I recently listened--in their entireties--to both Feel Good Lost and You Forgot It In People , and it made me realize how much I am looking forward to and yearning for anything new coming from the Broken Social Scene camp. But is there anything on the horizon? Apparently they've done the score for a film called Snow Cake , but other than that there seems to be a dearth of news. For now, I suppose I'll have [...]
