Back to Normal

I've been feeling a little bit old of late. Spent the past few weeks living through some musical ADD. I get that way. Whenever I am feeling a little "mature" I tend to go off the deep end and re-do the iPod. Now Bigelf is a lot of fun and I like the new Wolfmother, once in a while. So I am back to normal. Just got some great new releases that I will be commenting on over the next few days. For those of you who actually read this, thanks for your patience. By the way, old doesn't suck.

Have you noticed?

Have you noticed that albums have gotten shorter and that more and more are listenable straight through? Less filler and more killer. How many great albums were doubles back in the day? Exile, Blonde on Blonde, The River? Sure there were others but for the most part great rock albums clocked in at 40 minutes or less. Mostly 10 great cuts. The CD and the drive to fill 80 minutes on each release has ultimately been a bad thing for the music biz. Glad to see the change. Now if we can just get everything released on vinyl again...

Slash & Fergie ????

Go figure... Slash & Fergie team up for a great rock track. She really surprised me at the R&R HOF show ripping up Gimme Shelter with Mick & U2 but this is really good. A suggestion: dump the Black Eyed Peas and pop shit, dress in leather and rock out!

Let's Rock

I was at the Pat Travers show at BB King's last week with my son and came to the realization that I am so sick of all the alt-country this, indie that bullshit. He comes out and starts in the following manner...

I'm Pat Travers, This is my band, we're gonna kick your ass!

Truth in mother fucking advertising. Great show, he always is entertaining and my 15 year old was so into it. Told me he rocked harder than any of the bands out today.

I'm bored. I miss the fun. Fuck Art...Let's Rock!
