Blitzen Trapper

For those of you who follow what I add to my page in the line of music. You will see that the other day I added some tunes by a band called Blitzen Trapper. To say I added these songs because I like them is an understatement. Since I have received Furr, the latest set from this sextet from Portland Oregon. I have listened to very little else, so I thought I would share some of the better tunes from this set with you. I have never been one to conform to the mundane songs of the general public… Continue

Hard time for Boy George but who really cares anyway

Another one hit wonder Icon has hit the bricks. This time it is Boy George who will spend some time behind bars. Boy George for those of you who don’t know him was the one time front man for the Culture Club, the new-wave-pop band that hit the charts in the 80’s with “Do you really Want to Hurt me” and the club mainstay “The church of the poison Mind”.

sold out

I feel as artists get old they start to lose their creativity. Not all artists but for the most part there are slumps of creative activity in many of the greatest stars. This is when I start to lose interest in the artists. I started thinking about this shortly after I listened to Johnny Cash’s American Recordings now for those of you who know who Johnny Cash is you will understand that he was one of the truly greatest singer song writers of our time. His songs told stories that the average… Continue

Ron Asheton, Prince of (Raw) Power

I have a major loss to report. another rock icon has gone Ron Asheton was considered the Prince of raw power and has passed on to the great gig in the sky. A founding member of those punk icons The Stooges he was found dead in his home in Michigan early this morning. There was no signs of foul play or signs of drug use (good job). Ron formed the stooges in 1967 with classmate Iggy Pop to coin the term of Punk rock in America. Standing out and yelling against the hippie counterculture, to define… Continue

2008 in music

With the year 2008 now behind us we can reflect back and look at it with gratification and anxiety. No other headline can be as vivid as the May 12th earth quake that hit us here in China. Or the world economic crash that has taken us into the New Year.
