It’s funny how the idea of a king of rock has become such a controversial conversation. Ask ten people who they believe rules over the genre, and you’ll most likely get ten different answers. Elvis coined the nickname during his reign over the genre, and phrases like “Clapton is God” have been featured on T-shirts […]

In the half-century since the release of Blood On The Tracks, Bob Dylan’s fifteenth studio album (released 1/20/75) has been acclaimed as one of the milestone releases of his career. However, the record received somewhat mixed reviews at the time of its original issue. Now, with the extended perspective of five decades, the differing viewpoints more […]

Fans of the R.E.M. guitar jangle may have rejoiced with the 1989 release of Toad The Wet Sprocket’s debut album Bread And Circus. With the issue of Green the year prior, the idiosyncratic Georgia quartet had begun to digress from the bedrock instrumental style of guitar/bass/drums/vocals for more elaborate productions (taken to an even further extent with 1991’s Out […]

On the front cover photo of the first Pretenders album (released 1/11/80), vocalist, guitarist, chief composer, and bandleader Chrissie Hynde looks like her best songs sound: decidedly stylish and with a purpose.

As documented in 1971’s Live Taste, the threesome could succumb to […]

A new year means new opportunities in many aspects of life. Adding a healthy habit to your routine, reading more, and changing your diet are some of the more common New Year’s resolutions you hear drunkenly spat out at crowded parties minutes before the clock strikes midnight on January 1.

Jorma Kaukonen loves words. But as he likes to quote – and usually followed by a hearty laugh – “At this point, I’m a guy that likes having written songs but hates actually writing them.” But written songs he has – many of them – and his fans eat them up. But words are a […]

Concert fashion has become one of the most popular ways to showcase fan participation and devotion. According to a fandom expert, adhering to concert fashion allows fans to “demonstrate their sense of belonging” with clothing that showcases their passion for the artists they admire. These wardrobe styles often mirror the aesthetics of the singer they’re […]

We are now less than a week away from Christmas, but as we all know, most people start the Holiday season a bit too early.
