Tomorrow, my wife and I are headed to Kentucky to visit her side of the family and celebrate Christmas/New Years. We’ll be gone a week, maybe, or less if we get bored. I won’t say that I will not be writing during my absence, as the in-laws do have an Internet connection, but I won’t […]

My dear wife found these guys last night. Amazing that we never saw or heard them while we were living in Bloomington, as that’s where they hail from. This is a lovely, and quite funny a capella take on the classic Christmas song.

Long ago and far away there was an actor. He was, for a brief time, the actor, perhaps. He was intense. He was awesome. He wasn’t afraid to get naked, or jiggy. Then he died. Well, ok he didn’t die. Mickey Rourke just kind of disappeared from the mainstream. Here and there he pops up […]

I’m tempted to call this octuplet just another indie pop band trying to carve a niche in the already swolen post-myspace, Facebook world of ours, but then there’s something different (and perhaps off) about these guys.

I’m not usually one for Brit-Soul, White-Soul, or even the regular-type soul music. I got no beef with it, really, but it isn’t usually the kind of music I find myself gravitating towards. Oh sure there is Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin and even Amy Winehouse in my collection, but I wouldn’t go near […]

Bootleg Country scours the globe (and the Internet) in search of incredible live music recorded to tape. It presents the best (or at least the most interesting) here every week whenever it feels like it.
You can’t turn on a classic rock station anywhere in the U.S. without eventually hearing a little Creedence Clearwater Revival. They […]
