At a church fundraiser in Central California on Saturday night, the musician who made a name for himself in the 1960s with the Byrds shows he still has a lot of good music in him.

- In 1971, Stephen Stills of Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young gathered musicians to record sessions for his third solo album. Some of the people invited included members of the Flying Burrito Brothers and the Byrds. The resulting group worked out so well that they decided to record an album together as their own band.The still unnamed band partook on a small tour. While at the train station in Manassas,...
From 1966, please enjoy The Byrds and "2-4-2 Foxtrot (The Lear Jet Song)," the (let's be frank) concluding throwaway track from Fifth Dimension (my personal fave of their albums nonetheless). Roger McGuinn (still Jim, at that point) actually taped the sound of a Lear jet on the runaway for the track, and over the years it's apparently been a source of some irritation to him that most people...
With Love and Curses, the fourth full-length from North Carolina-via-Memphis garage-rock combo the Reigning Sound, lead singer/guitarist Greg Cartwright just may have staked his claim as one of the finest songwriters in any genre working today. Fans of the former Oblivians shouter might quibble as to whether Love and Curses stacks up next to 2004's much-loved scorcher Too Much Guitar, the album recalls...

There are perhaps 12 people on this ship who aren’t either venue staff or members of one of the two bands, and it’s a real shame as I doubt those 12 or so people will see a better show this month.Openers are Coventry’s Don’t Move, who certainly do move a lot, putting on an energetic [...]
I've been revisiting the swinging '60s in recent days, working on an upcoming post about what Hollywood was like four decades ago when the "Easy Riders, Raging Bulls" generation took over the movie business. But the records that came out...
Brooklyn's Pete & J aren't trying to keep up with the trends that fly out of their home borough every other day, and that's mostly because they don't have to. Who needs keytars or Nintendo sounds when you've got pristine pop melodies and the kind of killer harmonies that melt the hearts of folk fans everywhere? That's the crux of Pete & J's (that would be Pete Harper, who grew up in the northern...
Jimm Etters (38) is the winner! I have been listening to this album since the giveaway started and I just love it. Stephen Stills has influenced generations with his powerful voice, song writing artistry, and passionate guitar playing, both as a solo artist and as a member of Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, and [...]
1.) It's hard to believe, but the rate of retro exploitation has sped up so fast that it's acceptable start copping Pavement records, as if new listeners were too young to actually pick up on it. This either signifies that I am officially ancient or history is folding in on itself so fast that 2012 will indeed herald the end of the world. Never had I imagined a day when my own generation's music would...
From Human Rights Campaign’s HRC Back Story blog: As we look forward to President Obama’s signing a strong hate crimes bill into law today, I wanted to share a video tribute produced for HRC’s National Dinner this year honoring the...
This, I believe, should be the last word. One more e-mail: In principle, I agree with the reader who quoted Hank Hill. Most Christian Rock stinks because it ignores the music - it really isn’t “Rock.” OTOH, there is a great body of Christian Rock out there by bands who don’t try to market themselves as “Christian Rock” - U2 (have you listened to “Grace,”...
