What's good everyone Wednesday Morning from the crew of BlackRadioIsBack.com and FuseBox Radio Broadcast Peoples! :) I'm hitting heads up with today with the last two parts of "The Messengers" remix tribute music project by producer/DJ J. Period & independent/on the rise Hip-Hop MC K'naan . "The Messengers" remix project is all based based on the music, activism, cultural impact and messages of 3 modern day music artists: Fela Kuti, Bob Marley & Bob Dylan. After the tribute to Fela Kuti , the focus of these episodes are on [...]
I think of diligence as hard work - I guess Blues was used by prisoners on the Chain gangs or further back by slaves to combat boredom, fatigue etc. Anyway - an excuse for some memories. Work Songs Negro Prison Songs Bob Dylan - I always think of how revolutionary this video seemed to be at the time. I have diligently watched and read many times

DYLAN, DYLAN, DYLAN - At the end of April, living music legend Bob Dylan will release his 46th album . Together Through Life , produced by Jack Frost, was recorded late last year, prompted by the composition of a new song, “Life Is Hard,” which was written for a forthcoming film by French director Oliver Dahan (La Vie En Rose). We are very excited to announce that you can download the first single from the new album, [...]
Subterranean Homesick Blues... En 1965, Dylan envoyait à terre des mots grifonnés et perchés sur une montagne de blues. Cette idée de panneaux blancs graffités qui défilent au rythme de la chanson est devenue une madeleine, un artifice (de pute) sur-utilisé. Fin 2007, Les "NAIVE NEW BEATERS", ainsi que "BIG FACE", proclamés "so hype" par la blogosphère, s'éclatent du carton, eux aussi. Pour les uns, avec une version numériquement évoluée (panneaux verts et incrustations pas dénuées d'humour et d'intérêt). Pour les autres, avec des cubes qui s'empilent et se déplacent gentiment dans une impression de double [...]
Look out, kid... Don't follow leaders; watch the parkin' meters. * * * from the 1967 documentary film Don't Look Back , directed by D.A. Pennebaker * * * see all posts [...]
It's an interesting week in the world of new music releases... Ah, historic music video. Nothing quite like it, eh? Anyhoo - the soundtrack to Todd Haynes' Dylan bio-pic I'm Not There is out today. And, uh, so are a few other things that'll make you think it's 1999. JUMP! (more...)
1965 hat Bob Dylan für den Song Subterranean Homesick Blues wahrscheinlich eines der ersten Musikvideos, wie wir sie heute aus MTV und VIVA kennen kannten produziert. Musikfernsehen gab es damals noch nicht und der Clip stammt ursprünglich aus einer Dokumentation über seine erste England-Tour, wurde aber später immer öfter losgelöst vom ursprünglichen Film gezeigt. Das Video an sich ist wenig spektakulär. Dylan steht in einer Londoner Seitengasse, im Hintergrund laufen ein paar Poeten rum und er hält passend zur Musik die Lyrics auf [...]
Tipik indie gitar gruplarının dışındaki 'tanımlanamayan' indie kıvamındaki akımları ve ilginç durumları inceleyeceğimiz !nteres Th!ng'de şimdilik konumuz: Fo!k! "Resmi bir eğitim haricinde, kültürel açıdan homojen dağılımdaki insanların, genellikle bölgesel geleneklerine göre oluşmuş ve ağızdan ağıza şeklinde devam eden müzik" şeklinde tanımlanıyor folk müzik.

It's kind of ridiculous that in the year plus that I've been blogging, no words have been spilled about Bob Dylan, other than to slag Modern Times via haiku . And in truth, my displeasure for Bobby D's latest album had more to do with the stark contrast between Modern Times and Time Out of Mind, let alone that of his latest work and his classic 60s records. Yet in spite of his late career mundanity , in my opinion, there remain only two logical choices for best singer/songwriter of all-time: [...]
