Beacon Preview 2006: The Allman Brothers Band --Crossroads Come and Go
by Doug Collette
The Allman Brothers Band hit a creative peak in 2003 with their first studio album in nine years, the splendid Hittin' the Note, and a spectacular extended run at The Beacon Theater in New York City. Culminating in September of 2004 with a brilliant three- night stay at the Fox Theatre, back home in Georgia, the ...
The Charlie Hunter Trio Live at Higher Ground
by Doug Collette
The Charlie Hunter Trio Higher Ground South Burlington Vermont Februaary 26, 2006 Guitar hero worship takes many forms and that which comfortably filled the partially seated, semi-cabaret setting of Higher Ground this Sunday evening was as astute as it was attentive. It was reverential too, but no so much ...
The Wood Brothers: Ways Not to Lose
by Doug Collette
As the bassist in Medeski, Martin & Wood, Chris Wood is the group's secret weapon. Until this collaboration with his brother Oliver, where the siblings rediscovered their fascination with blues and folk music after a series of dates under the proverbial radar last year, he hadn't the visibility of his peers, based on collaborations with Warren ...
The Derek Trucks Band: Songlines
by Doug Collette
Songlines will be a likely candidate for Best of 2006 lists in any number of genres--jazz, rock, jam band--and not just because it continues the eclectic course set by Derek Trucks since he began recording. (Covers included here range from Rahsaan Roland Kirk to Taj Mahal and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.) This album completely captures the ...
Bela Fleck & The Flecktones: The Hidden Land
by Doug Collette
The Hidden Land, the first album of new material recorded in the wake of a year off the road, is the logical extension of the Flecktones' recent activities. It makes sense to go back to the basics and start afresh. Also, after the eclectic complexity and artful ambitions that produced the last Bela Fleck/Flecktones album (the ...
The Charlie Hunter Trio: Copperopolis
by Doug Collette
Of the sessions with his trio that produced Copperopolis, guitar wunderkind Charlie Hunter says, I was just feeling rocky I guess. Indeed, the first few seconds are the sound of the three players marshalling their collective strength, leader/guitarist at the fore, riffing and rocking to beat the band. In the midst of the shredding, however, the ...
The Headhunters Live: Dance Party in The Green Mountains
by Doug Collette
The Headhunters Club Metronome Burlington VT January 20, 2006 What's it mean for a band to cook? If you heard the current lineup of The Headhunters on the Vermont stop of their abbreviated winter tour, you'd know. For the better part of their close to two hours ...
Phish: New Year's Eve 1995--Live at Madison Square Garden
by Doug Collette
Phish Live at Madison Square Garden: New Year's Eve 1995 Rhino 2005 Here's some perspective: Phish were together roughly three times as long as the Beatles!? The plundering (if you want to call it that) of the Phish archives actually began during the group's self-imposed hiatus from 2000 to 2002, ...
Fillmore West 1969: The Complete Recordings
by Doug Collette
Grateful Dead The Complete Recordings Fillmore West 1969 Grateful Dead Prod 10-CD Rhino 3-CD 2005 When the Grateful Dead originally released their live album Europe 72, it was issued in a three-LP set on vinyl for dual reasons. One was to accommodate the breadth of one ...
Wilco: Kicking Television: Live in Chicago
by Doug Collette
This ain't your mother's sensitive singer songwriter!. No, during the entire time he has led Wilco, from the dissolution of Uncle Tupelo through the turbulence of the most recently acclaimed studio work, Jeff Tweedy has redefined what it means to be introspective. This double live CD only reaffirms his vision. More importantly, it documents the work ...
