Having spent some time in New Orleans over the years, I’m always happy to review a new album from one of the local legends, especially one who mixes blues, jazz and soul into his own special sound. Walter “Wolfman” Washington has kept a low profile in the last decade - partially due to Hurricane Katrina [...]
It all started innocently enough over at my joint when I put up this charming clip. One of the two or three regular readers of my blog, who chooses, perhaps out of laziness, to go by the moniker Anonymous, left this comment: Great 60’s Male Vocalists in No Particular Order: John LennonElvis PresleyPaul JonesPaul McCartney Roy Orbison [...]
DEVO Working In a Coalmine (Too fast for someone who’s “so tired.”) The original: Lee Dorsey’s Working In a Coalmine And, of course, coal mining is a dirty job. Right Mike Rowe?
"New Orleans: The Original Sound Of Funk 1960-75" in 25 tracks.A 27-page booklet this time: less info on the New Orleans part (but it's an addition to the vol. 1 booklet rather than a copy) and lots of pictures of 7'' disclabels (none in vol. 1). Similar: brief artist info and some fantastic photography. Meaning 'volume 1' is the better package but volume 2 has one track more. Funny: if you want to...
OK, so you like the Beastie Boys and you like The Beatles. That don’t impress me much. What would happen if you had the two together? Well, I like pears and cashews, but I wouldn’t put the two together, but somehow this works. I have an album of this stuff. There’s Whatcha Want, Lady, which is [...]

A bit of New Orleans funk for you now from the mighty Lee Dorsey. Born on Christmas Eve and recording in that spirit of hope, this captures some with a bass line that could change the fortunes of most bad days. The Weekend Song feature is a year old this week, which makes me think I may [...]
This month Paul Weller, once one of the angriest young men in pop, turns 50. He may have mellowed over the years, but his passion for music remains undimmed. Interview by Mick Brown.

Who knew that mid ’60’s Dutch rockers could be so funky? With Albert King, Lee Dorsey, Solomon Burke and Allen Touissant (among others) all claiming highly respectable versions of this song, this one might be my favorite. The wicked drum break at the beginning, the saxophone sqounk, the dirty swagger where there once was a [...]
Although I fear the tag - I'll do this one from Diddums because it's only *6 words which describe my life*. How about? Rocked Rolled Ranted Reacted - Retired Relaxed ... I was always a sucker for alliteration..... ..and talking of Rock 'n Roll - my earliest experience was under the bedclothes with Jimmy Saville - on Radio Luxembourg.
