Watching this again this late night, with some bourbon, and essentially the show I saw this summer in Chapel Hill.

If you love Isbell, Gaslight, give Dave a chance. I promise you it's worth it.

And this is him acoustic. So much heart. (And plenty of loud that's insanely good if you look him up.)

Edit to add my favorite song of the last few years:

 

[CD Boogie]

Finally heard the news Stones song, "Angry." Very meh. Somehow bears an eery resemblance to "Mixed Emotions," which came out in, what, 1989?



Probably no coincidence that the video uses old footage of the group members and current IT girl Sydney Sweeney.

I love the Stones, saw them in 1989, but I think we've heard enough from them.

Guns 'n Roses is playing a show on the Mississippi coast tonight. Looks like Slash was taking in some local culture to get ready.

This is almost a year old, but I just heard it today, and holy ship is it good.

The 10th anniversary edition of Southeastern came out today with some nice demo cuts of songs. It puts me in the mindset of a decade ago, and it's hard to overstate the effect the album, and this strange mix of things I was reading and listening to, had on me. I distinctly remember an early July day in 2013 listening to "New South Wales" and reading David Byrne's "How Music Works" and how that mix convinced me somehow that life could be totally different than the first 28 years had gone. Like a lightning strike that came from nowhere and changed everything.

I was on my music service and ran up on Willie Nelson performing the entire "Red Headed Stranger" album live on Austin City Limits. I saw, and I think I linked here, the actual show on Youtube, but it was pulled down a couple of weeks after I found it. I had never thought to look for it as an album. Anyhow, recorded shortly after the record came out. If you like Willie it's worth a look. If you like country and have somehow never heard this record, run don't walk to listen to the studio album instead of this live version from 1976.

"The Things that Matter" could have been, and should have been, a Pure Prairie League album, but the band was taking a break at that point.

If you're a PPL person, you probably already know this but Craig Fuller made some good music with Little Feat in the late 80's and 90's.

 

[Songbird]

Who did Vaseline better:

Stone Temple Pilots ...



... or Ice Cube?

Really enjoying The Gaslight Anthem's newest single, "Autumn," released today:

 

[Big Circus]

I'm only a few songs in, but so far the new Lil Yachty album is sounding like Maggot Brain 2023. Great stuff.

 

[Starman]

Townshend's collaboration with Ronnie Lane, "Rough Mix," is one of my favorites. I was working at an FM rock station when it came out. I was making poverty wages, but we walked away with a lot of LPs, which was a nice perk at the time. I understand that Lane was diagnosed with MS while they were making the album.

One track by Townshend and one by Lane.

This came out in September 1977. I had just turned 19. I liked it quite a bit.
This particular song co-written by Lane and Eric Clapton rang a bell with me; I have a sister by that name.
A couple weeks ago, I turned 65, so I felt like watching it again.



PS, the guy who did this video has done a hundred or so others, and they range from pretty darn good to unforkingbelievable. Thr art form of rock music video has kinda stalled the last couple decades but this guy has it knocked.

Maybe its because its been forever since I've been to a live music show, but really getting into live cuts of songs. Hornsby has always been a great live act, great dueling guitar solos on this one.
