Jan 27, 1:00am Consequence Of Sound
30 Great Covers of Leonard Cohen Songs (That Aren't "Hallelujah") "You moved in slow degrees/A sudden memory/You're a Leonard Cohen song" - Better Than Ezra, "Under You" "But I was caught, like a fleeting thought / Stuck inside Leonard Cohen's mind" - Mercury Rev, "A Drop In Time" "Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld / So I can sigh eternally" - Nirvana, "Pennyroyal Tea" It's almost unbelievable now to think that we almost never heard Leonard Cohen , the singer.

Best of 2011 / Jacob's Top 5 Lists

Dec 27, 2011, 11:00am Draw Us Lines
Best of 2011 / Jacob's Top 5 Lists It's that time of year to look back on the past 12 months and say "what the hell happened to the last 12 months?!".

PT: Fleet Foxes Have Helplessness Blues

Apr 4, 2011, 12:58pm Hidden Track
Fleet Foxes - Grown Ocean
Back in 2008 the Fleet Foxes helped usher in the beard rock movement with a pair of releases that owed an equal debt to bands such as Crosby, Stills & Nash as to acts like Fairport Convention. After relentlessly touring behind the unexpected runaway success of their full-length debut , the band's schedule finally settled down long enough for them to head into the studio last year to start work on their sophomore LP. Recorded at studios on both coasts, including several in their hometown of Seattle, WA, the long-awaited results will finally be heard when [...]

ABON 0145. 1974. RICHARD AND LINDA THOMPSON – HAS HE GOT A FRIEND FOR ME

Jan 26, 2011, 3:37am A Barrel Of Nails
Richard Thompson was born in London in 1949. But his father was Scottish and, as a teenager growing up in the 50s and early 60s, Richard was not only exposed to Rock'n'Roll, and then Rock, but also to his father's apparently extensive collection of traditional Scottish music and Jazz. Which helps to explain why, although Richard is often described as a Rock guitarist, his songs actually don't sound very 'Rock' at all when you listen closely. His love for unusual non-Blues-based tunings has a Jazz feel to it. The drone-like hums in his guitar-playing, and even in his [...]

Your Sister's (Record) Rack: Singles, Part 5

Sep 3, 2010, 10:09am 30 Days Out
Your Sister's (Record) Rack: Singles, Part 5 Remember when you had a record player that could stack about five or six 45 rpm singles on a spindle, and they dropped onto the turntable one at a time ... I gotta say, sometimes I feel that modern technology has taken some of the romance out of life. Ah well, here are some more singles: Let's get crazy right out of the chute ... Ten Years After was a British blues/rock/psychedelic band from the late 1960s, most famous of course for their 11-minute boogie "I'm Going Home" at Woodstock. That song originally appeared on the [...]

Fairport Convention “Full House”

Aug 16, 2010, 10:42am The Rising Storm
Fairport Convention “Full House” Full House marked the consolidation of Fairport's transition from West Coast-styled, hallucinogenics- influenced outfit – a British Jefferson Airplane, perhaps - to purveyors of rocked-up, electrified British traditional folk, a courageous move tentatively started with the inclusion of "A Sailor's Life" on Unhalfbricking and triumphantly completed on Liege And Lief , perhaps the most influential and important UK rock album to appear since Sergeant Pepper . But Fairport had then lost arguably its two most important contributors, founder and direction-setter Ashley Hutchings and crystal-voiced frontwoman [...]
