Grayson Capps: Scarlett Roses
by Doug Collette
It makes perfect sense for Grayson Capps' Scarlett Roses to conclude with a cut called “Moving On" (and for a lyric sheet to be included). The music on this album sounds like it comes from a place just beyond the world as most of us know it. Like the appropriately designated title song, the material itself ...
Trouble No More - The Bootleg Series Vol. 13 / 1979-1981
by Doug Collette
As Bob Dylan is pictured on the front cover of his latest archive release, Trouble No More, aviator shades glinting in the spotlight with his arms akimbo over the Fender guitar strapped over his shoulder, he doesn't appear all that much different than the wildly combative folk-rocker of the mid-Sixties on which much of his legend ...
Sticky Fingers: The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine
by Doug Collette
The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine Joe Hagan 560 Pages ISBN: # 1101874376 Knopf 2017 If Jann Wenner, the subject of Sticky Fingers, wasn't such a devoted fan of the Rolling Stones (after whom he at least partially named the magazine he founded), Joe ...
R.E.M.: Automatic For The People - 25th Anniversary Edition
by Doug Collette
If the anniversary packages of R.E.M.'s discography, like Automatic For The People, seem to be arriving in quick succession, that's because the band hit an extraordinarily prolific stride around a quarter century ago. Breaking beyond the boundaries of their previously-established and recognizable style with Green (Warner Bros., 1988), the foursome continued into the next decade writing, ...
The Chris Robinson Brotherhood at Higher Ground
by Doug Collette
The Chris Robinson Brotherhood The Ballroom at Higher Ground South Burlington, VT November 5, 2017 Sunday November 5th was the first night following the end of daylight savings time, which might have held some portent for the Chris Robinson Brotherhood, a group whose leader places so much stock in the mystical. ...
The Marcus King Band: Due North
by Doug Collette
It should come as no surprise that the Marcus King Band is developing a work ethic remarkably similar to Gov't Mule. The latter band's titular leader, Warren Haynes, produced their eponymous second album which was released on Fantasy Records, the same label on which the Mule now resides. And, not coincidentally, MKD has the same management ...
Chris Combs: Combsy
by Doug Collette
It does no disservice to Combsy or the man who made it to state how favorably it compares to the most recent work of the Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey in terms of both style and quality. Multi-instrumentalist and composer Chris Combs was integral to the concepts and production of The Race Riot Suite (Kinnara, 2011) and ...
Disreputable Few: Ain't Who I Was
by Doug Collette
The name of this double-barreled guitar band, Disreputable Few, rolls off the tongue in much the same euphonious fashion as the group so often plays. And the intelligence and self-awareness of these versatile Los Angeles players, all of whom play multiple instruments here, manifests itself right from the start of Ain't Who I Was, where the ...
The Sound Field: The Bucket List
by Doug Collette
The cryptic nature this band's name dissipates fairly rapidly as The Sound Field's album plays. Similarly, the meaning of the record's enigmatic title, The Bucket List, clarifies with each passing cut so that, by the end of this debut effort, its definition has become as clear as the sound mix. Graphics on the compact ...
