Why didn't I like these discs? Does anyone else feel the same way?

The discs by these well-known artists just didn't click for me: Lucinda Williams, John Hiatt, Ryan Adams, Steve Earle and Wilco. It isn't that I don't dig these artists. I've seen them all live…Continue

I don't get the whole Arcade Vampire Foxes thing.

Elvis is fine (and I agree with your song list) and I note there is nothing from the last two or three....decades.

I found this old photo digging through Houston memorabilia. I probably drove this to the Ely show.

Elvis never got stopped by the police for picking up a transvestite hooker.
Makes you wonder about those angry gay jokes.

I spent the afternoon listening to Sam Baker and Kevin Gordon and I just now turned on the Grammys (don't ask me why). All of a sudden I feel kind of sick and I need to go take a shower.

Hey! Iwas at the Leroi Brothers/Joe Ely gig! One night-same time period- Joe showed up at Corky's to play with Herschel Berry and the Natives.
Nice tribute to Joe. I'd recommend Joe's travelogue "Bonfire of…

Welcome to ND Jack. I have a cassette "Thrill of Love" you did with Shake Russell back in the early 90's.

Hal Bogerd commented on Gillian Turnbull's blog post 'What is Wrong with the Junos?'
Matthew Barber is a Canadian singer/songwriter well worth checking out. I know he was nominated for a Juno but I'm not sure if he won.
Hal Bogerd commented on Gillian Turnbull's blog post 'What is Wrong with the Junos?'
"Gentlemen:I am returning herewith the six Juno awards that I once felt honoured to have received and which, I am no longer proud to have in my possession. As far as I am concerned you can give them to the border jumpers who didn't receive…

"You're Gonna Miss Me" / Roky Erickson
"You're Gonna Miss Me" is Keven McAlester's mesmerizing and haunting documentary about Texas cult-artist Roky Erickson. Roky rose to fame with the 13th Floor Elevators when they took the single "You're Gonna Miss Me" (Americana connection? Check out the guy playing jug in the video!) onto the pop charts in 1966. Roky has been credited with coining the phrase…

Bradley Wik and the Charlatans / Burn What You Can And Bury The Rest
Bradley Wik and the Charlatans' Burn What You Can And Bury The Rest (1/17/12) proves that rock and roll is not dead but it is in fact alive and well. Bucking the recent trend of popular bands that don't rock Fleet Foxes, Vampire Weekend, The Decemberists, etc. Wik saw the (his) future of rock and roll and yes, as Jon Landau predicted, it was Bruce…

The Coloradas / Review and Interview
Roy Davis and the Dregs' alt-country flavored Deadweight (2008) was one of those nuggets that make listening to all the "free" music worthwhile. Davis and company (some old and some new) shift gears on The Coloradas' self-titled debut swerving into the bluegrass lane while retaining much of what initially made me a fan. Davis is a talented songwriter with a voice that at times recalls…

Hi Hal,
No I can't say I've ever seen Herschel. Do you remember The Shake Russell Band from that era in Houston? He was extremely popular at that time. My producer, Jack Saunders, was then his bass player and they later became duo partners. I'll check around for Herschel...good to meet you.
