I have never quite forgiven Elvis for offering to be a narc for Nixon.

I've never been an Elvis fan, but I will concede that his influence has been immeasurable. In my book, however, Chuck Berry is the true king of rock and roll.

Looks like a solid list. I've only heard about three of the albums, though. Who can afford to buy all this music? Moreover, who has the time to sit down and listen to all of it--to say nothing of the patience required to stick…

I read this only out of curiosity, as I'm sure Turnstyled, Junkpiled did. I saw the title and and to find out whether it was a put-on, satire, or what have you. Sorry, but we are a bunch of alt-country elitists, after all.

You're right, Scott--it is "Sherry Darling." I hadn't listened to that one since I got married and didn't remember much about it--I guess it didn't seem all that applicable to my own life back when I was single.…

Loving the 'Mats

Can't seem to get enough of the Replacements these days--whether it's reading about them in Jim Walsh's "oral history" or listening nonstop to those early records. Never saw them live, and probably would have been disappointed if I had, but every album from Sorry Ma to Tim (and maybe Pleased to Meet Me) is pretty much indispensable. Odd that a teetotaler would fall in love with a band that was anything but straight edge, but I'm there. Of course, the 'Mats…

At 2:28pm on October 9, 2011, Dean Swanton said…: Shawn...I've enjoyed reading your comments regarding the new Wilco effort and also your thought on the whole Jeff Tweedy/Jay Farrar relationship. I love Wilco and pretty much everything they have done but also feel the same about Jay Farrar. One thing that can be said about Farrar is that he stayed true to his alt-country roots. I certainly wouldn't classify anything Wilco has done as alt-country but I still love their music nonetheless. I too have Read Learning How To Die and I find myself fascinated at the relationship Tweedy and Farrar had and exactly what went wrong and who was to blame. I am thankful that there once was a group named Uncle Tupelo and that two outstanding groups were formed after the breakup. Trace might be the best album I have ever purchased. I am going to see Jay Farrar in Bellinghman WA next month... can't wait. Cheers!
