Beyond Description: Grateful Dead 1973-1989

Read "Beyond Description: Grateful Dead 1973-1989" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Serendipity is dead... Grateful Dead that is. A successor to the similarly massive and comparably gorgeous box set The Golden Road (1965-1972) , Beyond Description (1973-1989) depicts the latter day Grateful Dead's utter and perhaps naïve willingness to surrender to their muse for inspiration, whether it be on the stage or in the studio. ...

Pure Jerry: Live From the Archive

Read "Pure Jerry: Live From the Archive" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Jerry Garcia Band Theatre 1839: San Francisco, July 29 & 30, 1977 JerryGarcia.com Jerry Garcia will forever be known primarily as the bespectacled, cheerily voluble, Zen-like figurehead of the Grateful Dead. But just as he established a solo career slowly and surely beginning in the early '70s, as both ...

Gov't Mule: Live At The Orpheum Theatre Boston

Read "Gov't Mule: Live At The Orpheum Theatre Boston" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Almost a year to the day before their October 15th show at the Orpheum in Boston, Gov't Mule played a truly epic two-set concert at this venerable theatre. Rendering highly-charged versions of their own material early in the concert primed the ecstatic audience for the two-tune collaboration with opener Chris Robinson: a scathing version of David ...

Big Head Todd & The Monsters: Live At The Fillmore

Read "Big Head Todd & The Monsters: Live At The Fillmore" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Big Head Todd & The Monsters Live At The Fillmore Sanctuary Records 2004 On both DVD and CD, Live At The Fillmore is as deceptively and unassumingly rewarding as the band who made it. Colorado-based Big Head Todd & The Monsters have played their way through the rock scene dubbed ...

Wilco at the Memorial Auditorium in Burlington Vermont

Read "Wilco at the Memorial Auditorium in Burlington Vermont" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Burlington's old Memorial Auditorium has rarely, if ever, heard music orchestrated with more ornate detail than that which Wilco played this early autumn night. And Jeff Tweedy, the band's revered leader, couldn't seem to stop, as the dynamic regular set gave way to two encores, the extended length of which reconfirmed what the medium-sized but enthusiastic ...

Brad Mehldau: Live in Tokyo

Read "Live in Tokyo" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

With boundless energy and seemingly endless imagination, Brad Mehldau has evolved into one of the most prolific jazz musicians in the world today. Little surprise then, that a little over six months after the latest release with his trio, we have another sterling piece of work, his first on his new label affiliation. Fans of his ...

by Doug Collette

Groundtruther Latitude (Thirsty Ear) The first in a series of three editions to feature the Charlie Hunter/ Bobby Previte Previte duo with a special guest gets off to a rousing, atmospheric start, as Greg Osby's sax and flute weaves in and out of an intoxicating sonic mix. In a decidedly less electronic ...

John Mayall: The Godfather of British Blues/The Turning Point

Read "John Mayall: The Godfather of British Blues/The Turning Point" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

John Mayall's legacy as a legendary figure in blues music in general, not just in Britain, was well-established before the end of the sixties. By the time 1969 arrived, he had enlisted, collaborated with and seen move on, the likes of Eric Clapton, Peter Green, John McVie, Mick Fleetwood and Mick Taylor (among others), all of ...

The Allman Brothers Band: The Road Goes on Through 2004

Read "The Allman Brothers Band: The Road Goes on Through 2004" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Some of the most emotional moments of The Allman Brothers' deceptively exciting set in New Hampshire on August 20th was Warren Haynes' stirring performance of Van Morrison's “Into The Mystic." Delivered with an almost religious fervor, the song came across as much as a hymn of gratitude on behalf of the band to be back on ...

Gov't Mule: Deja Voodoo

Read "Deja Voodoo" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Listening to Deja Voodoo , one has to wonder how long the members of Gov't Mule can keep producing music so inspired without overextending themselves. But that's like asking yourself how long a great instrumental solo can last, and this band's career has been tantamount to one long improvisation, from its earliest days as a trio ...
