Whenever I tackle a song by The Beatles for Cover Wars, I like to head on over to see what Alan Pollack has to say on the song's topic and the in-depth musical analysis he provides on his website , a must-bookmark site for any Beatles fan or musician. The absolute basics: Released on The White Album, written by George Harrison and Eric Clapton guests on lead guitar. This Cover Wars has been a long-time coming as I have started compiling it at least once in the [...]

This song has got it all from the great synth intro to the driving guitar lines to the singalong chorus - the whole package. Checking in on last week's contest, Give Us The Money Lebowski has emerged victorious. If you like what you heard, don't forget to check out these guys at Awesometown next weekend in Morrisville, PA.

Rolling Stone once wrote, " Using the line "And the wind began to howl" as a springboard, Hendrix constructed a tumultuous four-part solo that transformed Dylan's concise foreboding into an electric hurricane. Dylan acknowledged Hendrix's masterstroke: His subsequent versions [...]
Holy Smoke !! Thanks to Pandora I heard Monte Montgomery today. This guy is unreal, not only is he a fabulous guitar player but his arranging and vocals are phenomenal. I have not heard sounds like this from an acoustic guitar in a long time. The sound fills a real void for me as I have always been an acoustic fan and have not been turned on to anything like this since my first encounters with the sounds of Michael Hedges or Dave [...]
