Read "Jimi Hendrix: Hear My Train A Comin’" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Jimi Hendrix Hear My Train A Comin' Sony-Legacy 2013 As an entry into the PBS American Masters series, it's little surprise Hear My Train A Comin' doesn't take a particularly novel approach to its subject.

Rodney Crowell: Tarpaper Sky

Read "Tarpaper Sky" reviewed by Doug Collette

Tarpaper Sky reaffirms Rodney Crowell's position as one of the most literate of contemporary songwriters. At the same time, it exhibits his unusual savvy as a musician and bandleader as he collects a core quintet to skillfully elicit both the intelligence and emotion of his original material. In its prolonged gestation before and after ...

John Mayall: A Special Life

Read "John Mayall: A Special Life" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Redoubtable and self-motivated as ever Just shy of his eightieth birthday, John Mayall recorded an album with his current band late in 2013 that suggests in no uncertain terms he remains as potent a blues musician as the members of his group merely half his age. He titled A Special Life with the same knowing understatement ...

Dave's ...

Pat Metheny Unity Group: Kin (<-->)

Read "Kin (<-->)" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Pat Metheny's Unity Group is perfectly named because, in its quintet lineup even more so than the original quartet, the group's approach brings together every musical element the famed guitarist has pursued during the course of his career.

The Who: Tommy Deluxe Edition 2013

Read "Tommy Deluxe Edition 2013" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

The white-hot intensity with which The Who play their rock opera on the second deluxe edition almost, but not quite, renders moot any reservations about the concept of the package.
