This week I wanted to add a theme to the selections as I did when we did an All-Bonnaroo edition. Last week ScottyB ran a great list of touring jambands that didn’t make it out of the 2000’s. The five groups featured in this piece are jambands that are indeed going to make it as touring bands carrying their respective ensembles into 2010 and hopefully well beyond.

Artist & Title: Blues Traveler – But Anyway
Date & Venue: 2009-10-06 The Paradise, Boston MA
Taper & Show Download: Dave Mallick

If longevity is the name of the game this week, Blues Traveler is a good band to lead off having formed in 1987 and put out their first album in 1990. Sure, they might not be playing arenas anymore (The Paradise in Boston is a room all of the other bands in this feature have outgrown), but they’re still out there gigging. Blues Traveler plays tonight at The Fillmore in Charlotte, NC.

Artist & Title: The Bad Plus – Breaking Up Is Hard To Do
Date & Venue: 2009-08-21 Highline Ballroom New York, NY
Taper & Show Download: Scott Bernstein

This is the first of two recordings from last week captured during Highline Ballroom’s “piano series”. This is a great take on the, oh yeah, Neil Sedaka song. Extra props to taper Scott Bernstein (note: different than our editor Scott Bernstein, they get that lot) for taking the time to even-out the levels of the applause – a problem you get on many jazz recordings when songs end. The Bad Plus next play at the Rimouski International Festi Jazz. In a bit of Last Week’s Sauce coincidence (see below), their next gig after that will be with the Marco Benevento Trio in Boulder, CO.

Widespread Panic: Huntsvlle 1996

Jason Rooks July 13, 2009 No Comments

With the third installment in their archival release series, Widespread Panic has given their fans Christmas in June with what many consider one of, if not the best, performance of their career. This multi-track recording has been professionally mastered and contains a three disc set recorded at Von Braun Center in Huntsville, Alabama on April 2, 2006. Huntsville 96 captures the band coming off their infamous “Sit-n-Ski Tour” through the Rockies which gave the boys time to relax, ski and play some tunes in an acoustic setting.

George McConnell: Singles Only

Shawn Donohue April 14, 2009 No Comments

Over the last few months George McConnell has been going back to the glory days of rock and roll releasing “Virtual 45’s” complete with B-Side’s. Come to think of it, that is pretty close to the glory days of today an I-tunes, but either which way McConnell decided to combine all his individual tunes into this full length titled, appropriately enough, Singles Only

Bust Outs: Caps and Nuts Edition

Ryan Dembinsky February 12, 2009 2 Comments

Ever since Al Gore invented rap in the ’70s, this relatively new breed of music has set the standard for cool. There’s simply no denying a good gangsta rap phase during your youth involving St. Ides, repeated viewings of Boyz in the Hood and Menace 2 Society and of course blasting bass out of your badass 1985 Mazda 626 (ok, that one was just me). With that in mind, today’s Bust Outs is dedicated to great gangsta rap covers by some of our favorite jambands as they channel their inner G and crank out some noble jams courtesy of Dre, Snoop, Warren G, Nate Dogg, Nelly, and Will Smith.

Perpetual Groove, Macumba – 12/31/08

In the midst of a 21 minute Macumba, PGroove’s catchy Penguin-themed favorite, the band goes AWOL into a stellar rap medley in front of an almost hometown New Years show in Athens, GA. Covering a marathon arsenal including Pass the Mic (Beastie Boys), Let Yourself Go (Big Daddy Kane), California (Athens) Love (2Pac), 99 Problems (Jay Z), Lollipop (Lil Wayne), Whatever You Like (TI), Gin and Juice (Snoop) and lots more, Brock Butler and Perpetual Groove gave fans a real New Years treat as they basically covered the past 20 years of rap in one medley.
