Last Week’s Sauce: May 17th – 23rd

It’s mostly a Rock & Roll recap here at Last Week’s Sauce. Notably, three of the bands (Blues Traveler, Pearl Jam, and Ween) all had their major studio debuts within one year of each other in 1990-1991. We round things out from the likes of jamband supergroup 30db covering Wilco and Keller Williams collaborating with his friends The Keels.

And we continue to take all the selected tracks, normalize them, create some simple fades and put it into one easy to download MP3 for you.

Artist & Title: 30db – Handshake Drugs
Date & Venue: 2010-05-22 Berbati’s Pan – Portland, OR
Taper & Show Download: Mark Burgin

In the first edition of Last Week’s Sauce of the month we led off with a couple of tracks from 30db, which would normally mean I would ignore any new tapes that popped up. But a cover of Wilco’s Handshake Drugs is the type of thing we make exceptions for. Brendan Bayliss takes lead vocals on this one just a few months after Umphrey’s McGee debuted their cover of Wilco’s I Am Trying To Break Your Heart on Valentine’s Day. For the time being the full-band 30db gigs have past, but there is still one more chance to see Brendan Bayliss & Jeff Austin play the tunes from One Man Show: Thursday night at Summer Camp at 8pm at the Campfire stage.

Last Week’s Sauce: May 3rd – 9th

As I always say, I’m at the mercy of what tapes are available when I put this piece together, and I had a great selection to choose from this time around especially when tapes popped up of rarely recorded acts like Iron & Wine & Local Natives. But don’t you worry, Hidden Track isn’t forgetting where we came from – we’ve got the likes of Tim Palmieri, Todd Stoops & Jennifer Hartswick to contribute a jammed out cover of Billy Cobham’s Red Baron.

Artist & Title: 30db – The Good Times Are Killing Me, Liar
Date & Venue: 2010-05-07 Barrymore Theater – Madison, WI
Taper & Show Download: soling

Well it only took about four years, but Brendan Bayliss & Jeff Austin have finally released their studio album. The selected audio features a Modest Mouse cover and one of Brendan’s contributions to the album. I cut out some banter in between the tracks, there was some nonsense in there about maple syrup, download the show if you want to hear it. 30db next plays May 19th at the Fox Theatre in Boulder.

Track x Track: 30db – One Man Show

For today’s Track By Track, we’ve enlisted Brendan Bayliss to tell us something about each track on the debut release from 30db entitled One Man Show. 30db started long ago when Bayliss – whose main gig is with Umphrey’s McGee – teamed up with longtime friend Jeff Austin of Yonder Mountain String Band to write songs and play shows together. Last year, the pair decided they had enough material to put together an album and headed to Boulder to record what turned into One Man Show – which comes out tomorrow – along with a stellar backing band that includes Cody Dickinson (NMAS), Nick Forster (Hot Rize) and Eric Thorin.


Here’s what Bayliss had to say about each One Man Show track…

One Man Show

Jeff and I came up with the hook late one night after writing for awhile and getting nothing. It really came quickly and we put two unfinished tunes together around that hook the next day.

Always Up

Jeff had the chorus and a verse, so we finished the 2nd and 3rd verses together sitting on chairs in his front yard. It was our first collaborative effort.
