ON a random grab out of the CD wallet I was fortunate to retrieve the classic A Tribe Called Quest Album “The Low End Theory”. This video has two of the best tracks starting with “Jazz, We’ve Got” sliding into “Buggin’ out” Look at the ease of approach, the cleverness, and the pure musicality. Unfortunately [...]

The Devil Drives.
September 7th, 2009 · View Comments · Music
[media id=3 width=341 height=460] Murder by Death – The Devil Drives. I first heard Murder by Death when they opened for Lucero a few years ago. I really dug their stage show and I am almost always a sucker for strings…especially when played by attractive women. This song has so much going for it – [...]

I have been riding this week but with no time to post updates…. Meanwhile, Pitchfork announced the March release of a new Neko Case Album. Then the cover art was released and is sure to adorn the walls of many a alt-country boy’s walls or cubicle. Enjoy.
Left alone I hit myself with a stone…

I have liked the White Stripes for sometime. I think Jack White has a guitar tone that will inspire young boys(and girls) for years to come. Sort of a modern day Stevie Ray Vaughn in that respect. Add the primal drumming of Meg White and you really got somethin’. When Icky Thump came out I [...]

DSCN1276_edited.JPG, originally uploaded by cdale. I have been feeling ill so I laid off the bike ride on Friday. That freed up some time at lunch to work on a sketch I have had in my mind. I started off thinking about something to the effect of “Ride your Bike – It’s good for America”. [...]

About a month and a half of anticipation finally came to fruition last Thursday night October the 30th. The Drive-by Truckers and the Hold Steady choose to kick off their month long tour right here in Louisville, KY. I told people about the show and talked it up for some time. By the time the [...]
Random CD Grab
October 14th, 2008 · View Comments · Music
This morning’s grab into the Cd wallet produced the classic Funkadelic – Maggot Brain in all of it’s spaced out psychedelic glory. I put it in about halfway to work and the first track covered the rest of the drive. I am looking forward to “Can You Get to That” and “Super Stupid” through the [...]

I have been listening to the older DBT album Pizza Deliverancea lot while I wash the dishes after dinner. Some times I play the first two songs twice each in a row. They meld together so well and have a good feeling about them. The thing is, perhaps neither of them should have a good [...]
We’re gonna build somethin’ this Summer

I went to your schools, I did my detention But the walls are so gray, I couldn’t pay attention I heard your gospel- it moved me to tears, But I couldn’t find the hate, and I couldn’t find the fear I met your Savior, I knelt at his feet, And he took my ten bucks, [...]
