Traffic Live in 1972 to Celebrate Steve Winwood Turning 60
2008-05-14 07:01:00 It’s hard to imagine that back in the early 60s with the Spencer Davis Group that Steve Winwood was a mere 15. It was only 4 years later that he would put together the band Traffic, one of the first bands to delve into jazz fusion. I first came to know about Steve ...

Earthy, Bluesy Folk Stomp from Bonepony
2008-02-21 07:01:00 What is it about folk and blues music… the earthy place rock and roll began… that I keep coming back to and keeps speaking to me? Maybe it’s the earthy authenticity and honesty, or the rich heritage… I don’t know exactly what it is, but I like it. I like it so ...

Thoughts on the Blues ? Metal therapeutic Connection
2008-01-23 07:01:00 I’ve been a fan of the blues for a long time, but I’ve been a fan of hard rock for even longer, and if you follow hard rock to it’s ultimate conclusion you of course end up listening to a bit of metal as well. I’m not a hardcore metal head and I ...

2008-01-10 07:01:00 I don’t know about the rest of you, but for me, one of the most exciting album releases in 2007 was definitely the expanded version of Led Zeppelin’s The Song Remains the Same.

2007-11-12 06:01:00 When it comes to blues, Stevie Ray Vaughan is one of those names that is pretty common place amongst blues enthusiasts and even those who are not as big of fans. I’ve been a fan of SRV for a long time, but I didn’t really get engrossed with his music until I actually ...
It Ain?t Easy, Long John Baldry and the Birth of British Blues: A Book Revi
2007-11-06 06:01:00 Sometimes when I read about rock and roll history I’m amazed at how haphazardly mainstream history elevates some figures to iconic status, but leaves others to linger in obscurity. The same is true of mainstream success which can often have little to nothing to do with the actual influence a particular artist has ...

Led Zeppelin Catalog Going Digital
2007-10-16 07:01:00 As I’m sure you know by now, I’m a avid, and perhaps rabid, Led Zeppelin fan and so of course I had to comment on the fact that the band recently announced that on November 13, 2007 their entire catalog will be available in digital format.

Then there is another group of rock groups that achieved this massive status ...
The Peter Green Era Fleetwood Mac
2007-08-28 07:01:00 I remember first hearing the pop styling of Fleetwood Mac very early in my youth on classic rock radio.

Deep Folksy Blues and Rock and Roll from the Darrin James Band
2007-08-25 07:01:00 August must have been the month of vaguely folk-ish singer/songwriter music because it seemed as if every suggestion I received for the Soul of Rock ‘n’ Roll was in that genre or at least close enough to it that I would associate it with that label. That’s not necessarily a bad thing as ...
Crossroads Guitar Festival: One All Day Concert Later
2007-07-30 07:01:00 It’s amazing to think how quickly yesterday’s event went by.

Jeff Beck has the Touch, Live in Japan: What Every Musician Should Strive F
2007-07-24 07:01:00 There are certain musicians who understand precisely the effect the smallest change can make in their musicality; it’s all about subtlety. I use the term subtle in terms of rock and roll a lot (and often in reference to sounds most people would NOT call subtle), despite the fact that describing a musical ...
Yardbirds to Tour With Page and Beck?
2007-07-22 07:01:00 Just the other day, I caught the glimpse of what might be one of the most exciting concert announcements in a while.

The Allman Brothers Band just isn?t the Same Without Duane: Live 1970
2007-07-03 07:01:00 When you listen to classic rock, blues rock and blues it just always seems like there are so many great bands to be listening to.

Once Again Inspired by the Blues Greats: Freddie King
2007-06-26 07:01:00 As someone who primarily listens to classic rock, I find that some times classic rock aficionados get too caught up in the artists that they fail to acknowledge many of the great artists who laid the groundwork. I am guilty of this far more than I’d like to admit. I would like to ...
The Black Keys: Hard Edged Blues Rock at its Finest
2007-06-21 07:01:00 Sometime in the not too distance past I seem to remember hearing of a band called the Black Keys… but both that memory and the reason I didn’t investigate them further at the time eludes me. The other day though, I happened upon this band again, and if I had not just splurged ...
Rory Gallagher Live in France 1980
2007-06-06 07:24:00 The great blues guitarist have all become legends in their own right to me over the years. Whether playing heart wrenching lead, or scorching blues stomp riffs there is just something about blues guitar that says… ?this is what it’s all about, man,? and I find that sentiment renewed every time I ...
Another Legendary Guitarist and Blues Man Under Appreciated: The Legend of
2007-05-30 07:14:00 I’m always excited to finally check out artists that I’ve repeatedly heard about and just never gotten to experience.

Briefly on the Influence of Bo Diddley
2007-05-18 07:07:00 In modern times, with so much rock and roll come and gone, it can be easy for us to forget some of the pioneers of the genre, taking blues and folk and twisting them into something new. These artists have influenced thousands if not hundreds of thousands over the years in one way ...
Loose, Rough, Raw or Self Indulgent and Excessive: The Style of Led Zeppeli
2007-05-10 07:18:00 Some people are just born in the wrong eras I guess. I think I’m one of these people, as I was born a few years after Led Zeppelin disbanded and was still far to young to go to the reunion tour so never got to see Led Zeppelin in their element: live on ...
Thoughts on Icky Thump: First Listen to the New Single From the White Strip
2007-05-08 07:08:00 Although it was released towards the end of April, (the 26 I think), I have been avoiding listening to the new single, ?Icky Thump?, from the White Stripes.

Late Night Festival Folk, Blues, Country and Bluegrass on PBS
2007-05-07 07:08:00 I’ve never really been a 9-5 type of person as it just does not seem to fit well with my sleeping habits. I prefer to be up working or researching during the late night hours when my brain has been active for a while and sleep for a few hours in the early ...

Originally dubbed South 40, they added former Castaways drummer Denny Craswell to the lineup prior to recording their 1969 debut LP, Crow Music, for the Amaret label; the single "Evil Woman Don't You Play Your Games With Me" cracked the U.S. Top 20, even though its distinctive horn arrangement was overdubbed against the band's wishes. Crow by Crow followed in 1970, although the single "Cottage Cheese" failed to attract much attention. In the wake of 1971's Mosaic, Crow disbanded, although Wagner resurfaced in 1973 with a solo LP, David Wagner D/B/A Crow. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide EVIL WOMAN - The Best of Crow A generous 18-track compilation of Crow, the keyboard-spiked garage pop-rock band...
