Over at Expectingrain board, the reviews have not been that great, esp. New Morning. (though over there they all seem to love to complain about everything in extreme detail). I am going to pick up New Morning, since I never owned a proper copy of it and have not listened to it in years. The others I have already and happy with them.

Got it.

I did not know this. I did not realize Natalie Maines came from a musical family. Of course it makes sense, now.

Did not realize that was out already. Great, a trip to the record store today is in store. Always love Earle's Fitzpatrick's album covers.

American Songwriting magazine started their top 30 Dylan songs. Interesting choice of song for their number 30. From: http://www.americansongwriter.com/2009/03/...-dear-landlord/

This is kinda of interesting. I only have been going to the Hideout since they been putting on jazz shows on Wednesdays so I do not know him as well as some might on this site. Sounds like a great opportunity. I wonder if he will emcee Pitchfork Fest this year, though I guess some might be happy if he doesn't. From Greg Kot's Blog:

Read it this past weekend. Someone recommended it here. It was a good read. I am familiar with his poetry but have not read much of his prose. Definitely going to be reading some more of his books. Now I'm re-reading Updike's Rabbit, Run for a book club I'm in.

Yeah it looks like it. I have never heard the Rolling Thunder.

A while ago there was a discussion regarding Micky Hart while he was personal hiatus from the Dead... I haven't heard these tapes before, has anyone? It's up on here: http://www.tapecity.org/showthread.php?t=18866

http://pitchfork.com/features/interviews/7636-neko-case/ Another interview, this one from Pitchfork (didn't see it posted in this thread) I like the cover. Listened to the disc again while driving through CO mountains this weekend and it made it for a peaceful drive. I still like Fox Confessor better, though.

Yeah, I figured I might get some negative responses, but I always found them boring and overplayed. I always thought that their animated video was pretty cool, though.

Anything by The Cars. I can never turn the station fast enough.

While you are on your bender, you should read Travels with Charley (if you have not read it yet).

There was and evidently it has been resolved because they have started to release his shows again. I have no idea what was the final settlement was. (As longs as the music is preserved and stored properly) This whole soap opera with the Garcia estate got tedious and rather boring too boot. (pun intended). Obviously the Dead organization wants to keep Garcia last wife's name out of the picture as much as possible.

Man, these new releases are coming fast and furious. That 77 show that I pre-ordered is not even out yet and they already announced another Road Trip release. It is also a bit interesting regarding the new Jerry release the they kinda of stressed the Garcia Family LLC (mainly Jerry

was that the first time you saw him live?

I would have to say Nine Inch Nails at Lolla last year. The only other time I saw them was at the first Lolla, which I enjoyed too. However since the early 90's, I have not followed what they have been doing at all. Saw them last year and then bought all their CD's that came out since Pretty Hate Machine (which I already had). The stage show was incredible and Reznor's performance was one of the best I ever seen. Must admit their fan base seemed pretty cool, too. The Rage Against Machine fiasco was on everybody's mind (I missed it of course because I was on the other side of the park watchi

On the Duane Allman's An Athology, Johnny Jenkins covers it. I think I like Jenkin's version better than the original. http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:hxftxql5ldde I haven't heard the Jenkin's album. I should.

That sucks that they pulled all the torrents. Seems a bit extreme. Did you find Wrap up Sessions?

Has anyone heard anything by the band Henry Cow. According to Allmusic, Henry Cow is in the Genesis "genre of music", hence I am asking in this forum. From Gallanter's write up, Henry Cow sounds interesting.

It kinda irked me a bit that they called "Make you Feel My Love" a Garth Brooks song. Would it have killed them to give Bob Dylan a shout out? Of course it seems everybody and their brother/sister covered the "Garth Brooks" song http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_You_Feel_My_Love edit: Of course, perhaps, many of the people watching last night might of asked, "Bob who?"

I don't have Scaggs album, but I have Duane's An Anthology and Loan Me Dime is on that. Great, great long jam. Out of all the Allman Brothers material I have, I think I listed to Anthology the most. I found this interesting in the Wiki link...I did not know Wenner produced any records.

Definitely looking forward to this.

You're a trooper. From what little I heard and from what I read, the run has been great. Hoping for a nice box set treatment of some sort.
