The Band
Active since:
For about six years, from 1968 through 1975, the Band was one of the most popular and influential rock groups in the world, their music embraced by critics (and, to a somewhat lesser degree, the public) as seriously as the music of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. Their albums were analyzed and reviewed as intensely as any records by their one-time employer and sometime mentor Bob Dylan.

Cat Power: Cat Power Sings Dylan: The 1966 Royal Albert Hall Concert
by Doug Collette
There have been some splendid tributes to Bob Dylan and his singular songcraft in recent years, specifically Bettye LaVette's Things Have Changed (Verve, 2018) and Chrissie Hynde's Standing in the Doorway (BMG, 2021). But, stirring as both of those are, neither is as ambitious or eccentric as Cat Power Sings Dylan: The 1966 Royal Albert Hall ...

Christian Parker: Sweethearts: A Tribute To The Byrds 'Sweetheart of the Rodeo'
by Doug Collette
In the half-century plus since it came out, the Byrds' Sweetheart of the Rodeo (Columbia Records, 1968) arguably has not received the accolades it deserves for its marriage of country music with rock and roll. But that misperception may be grounded in the reality that the album as it was released is not exactly how it ...

by Doug Collette
For all the attention garnered in recent years by the Avett Brothers, Mumford & Sons, the Lumineers, et.al., a raft of other Americana artists go largely unrecognized. The Felice Brothers top the list of the unsung nouveau folksters, but Kenny Roby and Forest Sun should be in that tally too: with the former's eponymous album and ...
