Tim O’Brien and Darrell Scott: We’re Usually A Lot Better Than This

Oct 24, 2012, 9:35pm Hyperbolium
Tim O’Brien and Darrell Scott: We’re Usually A Lot Better Than This Stirring live set from two Americana masters Tim O’Brien and Darrell Scott first met on a publisher’s songwriting appointment, but their musical careers have since intersected in many more organic circumstances. Their second collaboration (the first was 2000’s Real Time ) finds them playing together as a live duo at the Grey Eagle in Asheville, N.C. Recorded in 2005 and 2006, the set list includes original songs (including Scott’s “Long Time Gone,” which was a hit for the Dixie Chicks) and covers of titles by Hank Williams (“House of [...]

From The Desk Of Wooden Wand: “The Things They Carried” By Tim O’Brien

Apr 4, 2012, 5:00pm MAGNET
Tim O'Brien reading from "The Things They Carried"--National Book Festival 2009
James Jackson Toth (better known by his nom de plume, Wooden Wand) and MAGNET go way back. We've been rabidly following his prolific, genre-eschewing career over the last decade: 100-plus records and counting, from short run seven-inches and handmade CD-Rs to major releases on some of the world's most respected indie labels, including Kill Rock [...]

1996: Farewell Angelina

Oct 22, 2011, 9:53am Star Maker Machine
Tim O'Brien : Farewell Angelina [ purchase ] Former Denverite Tim O'Brien released his brilliant tribute to Bob Dylan in 1996. He wittily named it Red on Blonde (he's a redhead, get it?). Darius posted another song from this album back in 2008 ( Man Gave Names to All the Animals ). I waffled a bit on which one to pick since they're all great, but I've gone with this one because it features his sister Mollie on vocals. Really, though, if you like "newgrass" you really [...]

Covered In Folk: Danny O’Keefe (w/ Alison Krauss, Nickel Creek, Chris Smither, Chris Hillman & more)

Aug 28, 2011, 3:32pm Cover Lay Down
Covered In Folk: Danny O’Keefe (w/ Alison Krauss, Nickel Creek, Chris Smither, Chris Hillman & more) A short post by Darius over at Star Maker Machine late last week rang a bell; I hadn't realized that Danny O'Keefe had both penned and first performed The Road , which most of us know well through its coverage on Jackson Browne's definitive album Running on Empty, but I did recognize his name from the songwriting credits for Well, Well, Well - a song often attributed to co-writer Bob Dylan alone, but first recorded by Maria Muldaur. Following the thread through the stacks, I found more than I bargained for: [...]

2011 New Yorker Festival Blind Items (Jake Shears, Roland Emmerich, Nancy Pelosi and More) Jake Shears at One Step Beyond (02/04/11) Like they've done in year's past, the PR team from the New Yorker Festival is running some advance teasers about this year's lineup. I've been able to answer all but one of the "blind items" they've listed so far. Which Vietnam vet turned author grew up in one of several cities claiming to be the “turkey capital of the world”?

Oceanfolk, Redux: Covers for the end of summer

Aug 7, 2011, 12:57pm Cover Lay Down
Originally posted, with slight modifications, in August 2009. Because it's one of my favorite sets...and because bloggers need vacations, too. We're in Truro for a short weekend, just like in 2009, in the same rented beachhouse high on the dunes above the Cape Cod sound. Wakeless trawlers and shore fishermen, beach wanderers and bathers are few and far between, mere specks on an otherwise natural landscape that fills the sense with color: green grasses, faded yellow sand, the variable [...]

Gone Folkin’: Cover Lay Down Takes A Short Vacation…and leaves readers with 7 covers of our official theme song On Friday, July 15, my family and I will head off on our annual jaunt to Hillsdale, NY, to help build the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival from the ground up, not to return until a full 11 days later, on the evening after the festival itself has ended. In case you're wondering why we go, just check out the image above: yes, that's me in the picture, at last year's festival, and by the Sunday morning Gospel Wake-Up Call, I fully intend to look just like that.

The 100 Greatest Non-Fiction Books

Jun 15, 2011, 12:55pm The Sly Oyster
The Guardian compiles their list of  the 100 best non-fiction books ever written . Certainly not definitive by any means, but bookmark it for that moment when you're looking for something to balance out that crime thriller or sci fi novel. Really glad they included Michael Herr's Dispatches , which along with Tim O'Brien's The Things They Carried, forms an amazing Vietnam War double punch. Tweet

Everything Is Broken: A Tornado Hits Boyhowdytown

Jun 3, 2011, 1:28pm Cover Lay Down
Everything Is Broken: A Tornado Hits Boyhowdytown Up until this week, you probably hadn't heard of Monson, Massachusetts , our little haven in the woods, a tiny rural town (population 8,000) in the no-man's land between Springfield and Worcester, Hartford and Northampton. But Wednesday evening a tornado split our town in two, flattening homes, cars, businesses, and entire acres of trees, splashing our once-beautiful haven across the front page of every major newspaper from here to the UK and beyond. No one got hurt, but there's a swath of destruction like a war zone from way above downtown through the dead center of everything [...]

Tim O’Brien Osama Bin Laden Cover for TIME

Tim O’Brien Osama Bin Laden Cover for TIME Unless you are a rock or have been living under one you've heard by now that Osama bin Laden was killed by Navy Seal Team 6 days ago. The man that helped in part to ignite 3 wars had been on the run for almost 10 years. This cover has been around for nearly as long as he was running as his flight. Tim O'Brien painted the portrait in 2002 when it was suspected that he had died, but the issue never ran to press. The red X was used for Zarqawi in 2006 [...]

Single Song Sunday: Long Black Veil (Vandaveer, Rosanne Cash, David Grey, Jerry Garcia, Tim O’Brien & more!)

Nov 7, 2010, 11:51pm Cover Lay Down
Single Song Sunday: Long Black Veil (Vandaveer, Rosanne Cash, David Grey, Jerry Garcia, Tim O’Brien & more!) This well-covered ballad, originally recorded by Lefty Frizzell just over fifty years ago yet so timeless it's often erroneously cited as a traditional tune, is not as simple as it seems. Where the vast majority of both traditional and modern folksongs range from simple verse to simple chorus and back again - if indeed they use chorus structure at all - here, the doubled chorus makes for a tripartite pattern, a heart-stutter that well suits the Saki tale of the story, twisted and self-sacrificing, with its well-timed reveal at the end of the second verse, and its grounding [...]

Tim O’Brien – Chicken & Egg (Howdy Skies Records, July 13) I'm a big fan of Tim O'Brien and the way he is able to straddle the worlds of traditional bluegrass and modern folk. The new record, his 13th solo record, is called Chicken & Egg . This song is from it and is a bit old timey in both it's music and its timeless themes of lost love, bad behavior, and remorse.

This is my third year in a row touting the Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival on these pages, and frankly, it's getting more and more difficult to truly add value to our ongoing promotion. Which is not to say the festival has been stagnating - far from it, in fact. It's just that after a decade of attendance, and three years of blogging about it, I'm running short on fresh superlatives worthy of the best grassfest around.
