Grateful Dead: RFK Stadium 1989 Box

Read "RFK Stadium 1989 Box" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Not nearly the rare or expansive likes of Get Shown The Light (Grateful Dead/Rhino, 2017), including the vaunted Cornell '77 concert, The Grateful Dead's RFK Stadium 1989 Box is nevertheless a deceptively lavish box set (note the gold foil adorning the band's moniker on the front cover). Perhaps because it is now one of a string ...

King Cardinal: Great Lakes

Read "Great Lakes" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

It's going to take more than one album to restore some legitimacy to the glib categorization of 'Americana," but with Great Lakes, King Cardinal at least paves the way for that movement. And does so without succumbing to self-conscious gestures of authenticity either.Which isn't to say it's wholly original by any means. But this ...

Grayson Capps: Scarlett Roses

Read "Scarlett Roses" reviewed by Doug Collette

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

Read "Trouble No More - The Bootleg Series Vol. 13 / 1979-1981" reviewed by Doug Collette

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 ...

R.E.M.: Automatic For The People - 25th Anniversary Edition

Read "Automatic For The People - 25th Anniversary Edition" reviewed by Doug Collette

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

Read "The Chris Robinson Brotherhood at Higher Ground" reviewed by Doug Collette

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

Read "Due North" reviewed by Doug Collette

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

Read "Combsy" reviewed by Doug Collette

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

Read "Ain't Who I Was" reviewed by Doug Collette

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 ...
