Rock Sellout
Or, if nothing else, at least his most productive. Formerly the lone constant of Guided By Voices (a band that released 16 albums, as many EPs, and four box sets in 17 years), the man of 1,000 songs seems to be dead-set on making 2007 his most productive year yet. Thus far, the year has seen Robert Pollard releasing the symphonic, ambitious Silverfish Trivia concept EP (Prom Is Coming), the second installment of his Asshole standup comedy series, Meet the King [...]

"Seven Curses" by BOB DYLAN: One of the darkest, most powerful Dylan songs I've ever discovered was included in the 3 CD box set The Bootleg Series, Vol. 1-3 , the same release from which I previously cribbed "I'll Keep it With Mine." "Seven Curses" tells the story of a man named Old Reilly who goes to jail for stealing a horse and is sentenced to hang. Reilly's daughter hears news of her father and comes bearing riches to free him, but the judge gives her only one option: you must sleep with me to free your dad. [...]

You Set the Scene
This is way late, but better late than never. Things have been crazy this week. Lots of noteworthy new releases. I've got about 10 of these already, but there are a few more I need to pick up. By the way, Matador recently reissued the first three Pavement albums on LP. Top Five New Releases: All Smiles : Ten Readings of a Warning (Dangerbird) – Former LA resident, Jim Fairechild was the guitarist in Grandaddy (and Earlimart for a bit too). He does the indie singer-songwriter thing on this new album. He and his band are [...]

Robert Pollard - Normal Happiness ( Merge ) A forgettable attempt at guitar pop that shows Pollard going through the motions while providing little to disprove that his best days ended with Guided by Voices.

Things I'd Rather Be Doing
The opportunity to look back on all of the music released in a given year usually helps to put things into perspective. In years past, there were clear-cut winners, a few also rans and the rest. Last year , for example, My Morning Jacket was my top pick, with all others a distant second and beyond. This year, things were different. It took a couple of weeks to really nail down this list of 25 top discs. The good news is that I was afforded another chance to really listen to a lot of great music. The [...]

Robert Pollard - Normal Happiness Robert Pollard - Moon After getting his prog on earlier this year with a sprawling double album (From A Compound Eye), Robert Pollard 's second post-GBV solo album finds him focusing on the tightly crafted pop gems that made him an indie rock icon. Only three of the sixteen songs on Normal Happiness clock in at over 2 1/2 minutes, and the longest track on the album only exceeds that mark by 62 seconds. Aided [...]
