There was an interesting article in yesterday's Wall Street Journal about Tom Petty: Rock God Or Mere Mortal? "As Tom Petty prepares to release a career-spanning anthology next week, an attempt to determine where he falls in the music pantheon." The basic premise is that though he sold a lot of records, maybe because he was prolific with the pop hook, he just seems to lack the "cool"...
LOS ANGELES (Billboard) - Adam Lambert -- the man with the outsize personality who delivered an audacious octave-and-a-half sitar-tinged purr of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" on the most-watched TV show in the country, dodged sex toys thrown at him onstage during the "American Idol" tour and did it all without smearing his eyeliner -- is curled in the fetal position.
So I was just playing around with my iPod and downloading some new stuff. And when I opened up iTunes, the little Genius bar opened on the side and started recommending some stuff I should get based on what I have loaded. Now I'm not much for country music, as you no doubt know, but I do have some. I'm a firm believer that you can't have a legit music catalogue and not have any Johnny Cash, so
I know I said I'd make an effort to draw something other than trees, but this idea really tied into what I was doing in Visual Studies. We spent a couple of days exploring different ways of using line, and were then encouraged to apply those ideas to an illustration. I've been really enjoying the Conceptual Thinking classes, and I had this idea floating around for a while, so I used it as an opportunity...
The Children of Woody Guthrie: Interview with Antonino D'Ambrosio by Alexander Billet Socialist Worker Never underestimate the ability for pop culture to water down its most firebrand figures--especially after they're dead. Luckily, there are people like Antonino D'Ambrosio. His book Let Fury Have the Hour: The Punk Rock Politics of Joe Strummer, released in 2003, is essential reading for anyone who...
City Hall, Newcastle "We've been waiting for this tour to happen for 100 years," begins the Damned's Captain Sensible, explaining this inspired pairing of two of British rock's most venerable – and notorious – institutions. When they first met in a studio in the 1970s there was an almighty punch-up. "Not between us and them," the guitarist says. "But between Motörhead...

I've been meaning to make it down to Tapas on Ann St. in Hartford for months to catch the Monday night stand with the Shinolas, an erstwhile band consisting of great session players.

A musical video featuring some stills and scenes of Emile Hirsch in "The Emperor's Club", "The girl next door", "Alpha dog", "Into the wild", "Speed Racer", etc. Songs "My Baby is All Right" by The Castaleers and "Everybody's trying to be my baby" by Johnny Cash & Carl Perkins.
This is one of those songs. It just grabs you at first listen and then throttles you into submission, until you find yourself stuck with it on repeat whilst you lie on the bed for a whole weekend, surrounded by t-shirts and posters from their gigs. It's all simple enough - just guitar and that wonderful, angelic voice. A very tender song about unrequited love, shoe shops, and Johnny Cash not quite...
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Country Music Hall of Famer George Jones isn't a big fan of where the genre has moved in recent years. When asked about what he thought about music by today's top country stars, the 78-year-old said while they are good, "they've stolen our identity." Jones made the comment during a recent interview when asked about music by artists like Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift. "They had...

The Brooklyn Museum's sprawling show "Who Shot Rock & Roll: A Photographic History, 1955 to the Present" opened on Friday as a study in the contrasts that run through the rock music subculture. Nearly 200 photographs, videos,...
