Down At The Field - Ry CooderA very, very good album Telegraph Stunning songs of protest from American guitar legend Ry Cooder ...... The lyrics are bitingly satirical - "with champagne and shrimp cocktails/and that's not all you find/there's a billion dollar bonus/and no banker left behind" .... “These times call for a very different kind of protest song. ‘Where Have All the Flowers Gone?’ We’re way down the road from that.” If protest is what you want, Cooder has delivered it magnificently. 1. Too Tight This Rag of Mine 2. You ve been Doing Something Wrong (I Can Tell By the Way ...SqueezeMyLemon19 May 2012

‘It was a great success’: Van Dyke Parks rem ..Van Dyke Parks has collaborated, over the years, with the likes of Randy Newman, Ringo Starr, the Byrds, Harry Nilsson, Ry Cooder, and others. More recently, he has been issuing a series of seven-inch vinyl singles, the most recent of which was “Sassafrass”/”The All Golden.” Yet, for more music fans, he will always be associated with Brian Wilson’s troubled late-1960s [...]Something Else!

Floratone II, Floratone - AlbumsA delightfully creative work, Floratone’s second effort presents soundscapes that trigger wonder and a drive to spot the allusion. Guitarist Bill Frisell and drummer-percussionist Matt Chamberlain turn Chinese in “The Bloom Is On” (don’t miss Jon Brion’s weird, echoey keyboard flares), lay down the best instrumental Roxy Music never wrote in “More Pluck,” and stretch New Orleans second line with exquisite drama in the segue from the spectral “Snake, Rattle” to the sunnier “Parade.” For rocking out, try “Move”; for funk, traverse “Do You Have It” and the Ry Cooder on Mars-styled “Gimme Some”; for hard, electric ...JazzTimes9 May 2012

Unusual Instruments: Washington Phillips Med ..Ray Skjelbred: Washington Phillips Medley [ purchase ] Not only is the dolceola a little known instrument, it is hard to find recordings of it. It is a combination of a piano and a zither that was made and sold for $25 (shipping included) for a few years around 1905 by a company in Toledo, OH. The zither, in turn, is a relative of the lyre, and there are some musical authorities that group the autoharp, the guitar and the piano in the same family of instruments: all having “struck strings” in common. I think you’ll note that it sounds a ...Star Maker Machine2 May 2012

The Fierce And The Dead: On VHSLondon band The Fierce And The Dead goes for a tougher sound on their new EP On VHS . With four tracks that can be labeled as instrumental prog metal, Stevens, Cleaton, Feazy and Marshall grit their teeth to follow each others improvised chord progressions and time signatures. A jazz approach taking that pays off handsomely. Opener 666...6 is King Crimson meets Sonic Youth, with he former having the upper hand in the end. Hawaii isn't about sunshine and palm trees, but filled with torrents of bass notes and a dry drum sound that makes you reach for a ...Here comes the flood27 March 2012

Thursday, March 15, 2012iniquitous \ih-NIK-wi-tuhs\, adjective: Characterized by injustice or wickedness; wicked; sinful. Iniquitous literally meant "unfair" in Latin, as its clear roots betray. Steak and Blowjob Day Celebrated on March 14th, Steak and Blowjob Day is a holiday for men, celebrated the month after Valentine's Day -- a holiday for women. The idea is simple: no cards, flowers, candy or other whimsical gifts. Ladies (and gay men), you simply bestow your partner with a steak and a blowjob. Not necessarily in that order. Jeff: "Hey Bob, what did Stacey get you for Steak and Blowjob Day?" Bob: "Well Jeff, that would be ...Baxojayz15 March 2012

Chuck Prophet – The Hurting BusinessEven back then, I could tell. There may not be many people around who remember Peter Accident and the Duck Revolution , but I do. Most importantly, I remember the spiky-haired, freakazoid guitarist, sliding across the stage on his knees at the High School Talent Show, shredding away on his Telecaster to some homemade punk song far in excess of the limited talents of the band around him. That was Chuck Prophet . And even then, I could tell. Walking through the halls of high school, it was apparent that Chuck wouldn’t be long for our small town. I don’t ...The Ripple Effect5 March 2012

Spoken Word: Linin' TrackTaj Mahal : Linin' Track [ purchase ] Taj Mahal has been doin' his thang for many a year. His early recordings, back in the 60s, focused on the blues, when he turned out his formative albums like the Natch'l Blues and Recycling the Blues. Over the years, in addition to the blues, he's covered jazz and folk, reggae and African. Like my main man Ry Cooder, he has researched and aimed to keep alive music of various traditions. He's a veritable scholar and ethnographer of music. In fact, musically, he's all over the place. The man has worked ...Star Maker Machine23 February 2012
